Beautiful traditional Kyoto Machiya house with washi Japanese paper and a pleasant small gallery. Located close to the Kyoto station and convenient by public bus to the major tourist attractions. The small restaurant Kisoji across the street serves great Kyoto cuisine. My family and I had a wonderful authentic Japanese experience and would definitely come back here again.

It is a quiet and clean detached townhouse. The garden was lovely, the spacious bedroom was comfortable, and I was able to experience an atmosphere that you wouldn't experience in a normal hotel. The kind concierge made my trip memorable, and I would like to use it again if I have the opportunity.

It was a very beautiful and comfortable space where you could enjoy the atmosphere of an old folk house. The garden and bath were so relaxing that I was able to sleep soundly.

This is a two-story inn that can be rented out as a whole.A family can rent out the second floor, or two families can rent out the first and second floors.I stayed on the second floor, and the bath was also made of cypress wood.You can rent it out for up to 10 people, so it's the perfect inn for groups.Kyoto Station is also a short taxi ride away, and Nishi Honganji Temple is just a short walk away.
