Nice old historical building. One can get the feeling how people lived in Japan. Very well preserved. ||Unfortunatelly, it was app 5-7 degrees and we couldn’t worm up the room as there are no celings. …

This place is called Ebisu Guest House which Google seems to confuse with Ebisu Imadegaw Guest House, which is just around the corner.They are completely different establishments from what I understand.This is a wonderful 100 year old house, all wood and paper, in a traditional Japanese style. It even has a little courtyard garden to sit and admire from the common room. The owner is very nice although he didn't really speak any English. Our futons were super comfy, and we loved staying in such a beautiful traditional house. However be warned that it is a guest house and although there aren't many rooms, your experience may vary depending on who else is staying there. The walls are generally paper so not exactly going to absorb alot of noise, and someone made a bit of a mess of the shared bathroom one night we were there.It's a single bus ride to Kyoto central station (30 mins), and we could get around to all the places we wanted to visit in Kyoto via bus quite easily.If you are looking for a traditional experience on a budget, I'd say this is it!

I had a really nice time in guest house ebisu in October 12~13th, 2018. If you want to feel traditional Japanese culture, this place is one of the best choices!When you heal in the open air, you can enjoy the taste of the rainy season in Japan and the world!If you want to enjoy Japanese culture in Kyoto, be sure to visit! The owners were friendly and the surrounding scenery was nice.

We really enjoyed our stay at Guest House Ebisu. It's a really old traditional Japanese house in Kyoto, though not quite a ryokan (traditional Japanese hotel). You sleep in a real futon on the ground. …

Nice old house that gives guests an idea of what it's like to stay in an old Japanese house. Owner is super friendly and helpful. Price was reasonable. Located near the Golden Pavilion but otherwise it's kind of out of the way, which is the only reason I removed one star.

Because it was built as a renovated old folk house, it is a calm and atmospheric building.I think this is the perfect inn to relax and experience Kyoto.
