It was a wonderful stay.The location is perfect for sightseeing in Higashiyama along the Kamogawa River.We drove to Kyoto by car, but we left the car in the inn's parking lot and spent two nights walking between Kiyomizu-dera and Gion areas, and Nijo Castle and Sanjo areas with children. I went sightseeing.Since I visited at the end of the year, the temperature wasn't too high, and the distance was a reasonable distance, so I only used the subway to go from the Sanjo area to Nijo Castle, but the rest of the time it was perfect for walking.Not only is the location of the inn excellent, but the facilities themselves are of high quality, and it is a well-managed and very comfortable inn. In addition, the amenities such as shampoo and lotion are of high quality, and you can feel the owner's good taste.Also, the area around the inn was surprisingly quiet, and I didn't hear any noise at night during my two nights there, but you can go to Kyoto Takashimaya in just over 5 minutes on foot, so you won't have any trouble finding shopping or eating out. . Convenience stores are also within a few minutes walk.The owners were also very friendly and I could feel their hospitality. This is also an inn that you will definitely want to stay in when visiting Kyoto for sightseeing.
