In September 2024, my family stayed for 4 days at Enishi Tofukuji during our trip to Kyoto. I was really satisfied because the house was very convenient, with a kitchen, a beautiful living room, spacious bedrooms, and all the necessary equipment for easy use.

Excellent accommodation to stay in Kyoto. The atmosphere is perfect, the accommodation comfortable and well equipped and the owner is very friendly. It's also close to the train station for easy transportation.The best accommodation I've had so far in Kyoto. I highly recommend!NB: some spaces (particularly the bathroom) are cramped, with a traditional Japanese size. I'm 1m82 and it was fair, people taller than me might have difficulty. This is the only negative point for this otherwise perfect place.

It's a very atmospheric Japanese-style building. It's very comfortable to live in. The most important thing is that it's very close to the subway station and bus station.The bathroom is small, but there is a bathtub for taking a bath.

It is located about a 5-minute walk from JR and Keihan Tofukuji Station, and is conveniently close to Kyoto Station. There are bath shops and restaurants near the guesthouse, and it is in a great location close to Sanjusangendo and Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine (*^^*)
