Beautiful cosy traditional stay in Kyoto

By far the nicest accomodation we stayed at. Place was clean and tidy. Bath was a godsend for tired bodies from all the walking and location was great.

Excellent location

Property was, as advertised, close to the train station and well located for visiting sites. Excellent set menu restaurant just steps away at the end of the street. Home was super clean and comfortable. If we were to go back to Kyoto we would look to stay here again.

Nice stay

We enjoyed our stay and were comfortable as a group of 8. We would stay here again. It was clean, had everything we needed, and convenient location. The Japanese dessert bar across the street is delicious too.

Family with partners

We’re a family group travelling with our 20yo children and two of their partners. This home was perfect for our group of 7 adults- and go with ease. Bikes were a hit too. Location excellent with many wonderful walking distance options. Our best accomm and we all just loved Kyoto- stay longer- it’s awesome!two bathrooms, separate toilets, a fun kitchen/dining area made this work well fo us. It was also great to have the code door lock so all can come

Great accommodation for larger groups.

7 of us stayed comfortably at this property. It is clean, well managed and conveniently located. About a 15 min walk to the train station and a few minute walk to several convince stores, bus stops and Gojo subway station. Communication with the property manager was very good. We would stay here again.

Great location and family base

The house is well located close to Kyoto station and lots of other public transport options to get out an about and explore Kyoto. The house is well appointed, so we could prepare our own meals on some nights. The provision of bikes was also nice. The house doesnt have a TV, but has a tatami room - so it is more of an authentic living experience, which we liked.

Excellent Kyoto Stay

Located on a quiet side street, just 10-15 minute walk to the train station and close to a major shrine. Plenty of nearby neighborhood shops and restaurants. Spotlessly clean and well equipped with kitchen amenities as well as bathroom supplies. Comfortable beds and good air conditioning. Host was easy to work with and quick to respond to inquiries. One traditional Japanese tatami room in addition to “normal” bedrooms. Great place to stay, safe neighborhood and would recommend.

Nice Stay

Property was in excellent condition and had everthing needed for a relaxing stay. Bicycles were a plus! Close to the main street and easy to flag down taxi's as- needed. Convienience stores a close walk. The dryer was inopearable during our stay, however we located a laundrymat within a 2 minute walk. Able to wash/dry a load within 50 minutes. Placed it into a Dryer only machine for an additional 6 minutes and it was fully dry. Excellent accomodations. Highly recommended. There is a sweet shop within 20 feet of the apartments front door, just across the alleyway, for some custom coffee and small treats. Some of the taxi drivers had difficulty finding the apartment, so we ended up taking a photograph of the street sign of a close main road intersection about 2-3 short blocks away. Worked like a charm.

Great base for exploring the city

After some minor customization of the rooms with bedding and whatnot, this place suited the needs of three middle-aged travelling colleagues nicely. Great to have two bathrooms and plenty of space to stretch out, and the neo-traditional layout was a nice introduction to the culture. 10 minute walk from the train station, which wasn't an issue as we pack light. Great access to transit and close to cafes and restaurants, and most importantly, Kyoto Beer Lab! Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful property

We had a delightful 3 night stay in this authentic Japanese machiya in January 2024. Communication and check in and out was seamless and the property itself spacious and comfortable. It was located in an excellent position close to shops, cafes and the train station. There were even 3 push bikes provided for our use! It was lovely living for a short time in a true Japanese neighbourhood.

Tucked away in a little alley

The home was everything that it said it would be. Clean and comfortable. But it is tucked away on a small street. We arrived the first time by taxi from Itami. He was able to take us to the home and made sure we were inside. No need to reserve a taxi as the instructions say, we picked one up at the airport. Great time!

We had a great stay here. There were 6 adults, plenty of space. We rode the free bikes most afternoons around the neighbourhood that was very quiet. Close to supermarket. Easy walk from station with suitcases . Two bathrooms and toilets, adequate bedding. Nice kitchen and dining. Washing machine. Overall very enjoyable.

Great experience

Great location for authentic and wonderful machiya with many comforts of home (washer/dryer, iron, microwave, portable wifi, umbrellas, etc). Great ongoing communication with property manager. A couple differences from online listing (no TV, additional Kyoto daily tax required) but overall great experience and would definitely love to stay again!!

Ten days in Kyoto

Overall, we were very happy with the house. There was plenty of space for all 5 of us. The location of the house was ideally located to get around Kyoto and subways. The only comment was that the upstairs bathroom sink was leaking and really could not be used although the owner tried to fix it by using tape. It was fun getting hot can coffee from the vending machine across the house.

Beautiful house fully equipped and located centrally within walking distance to Kyoto station.

The host was excellent and provided comprehensive information on how to get to the house and to get in and the requirements as temporary residents in Japan. The house is beautifully decorated and well equipped with crockery, glasses, cutlery. We had a problem with WiFi and rang the company who agreed to send someone over but we managed to resolve it ourselves once we found the router. The only issue is limited space to hang your clothes with only one rack for hanging in one of the bedrooms. There were 6 of us and there was just enough space to sit round the dining table. We only found out that the table could be extended on the last evening. We did not cook but the facilities were there if required. The location is central and you can walk to Kyoto station for trains and main bus station. Around the station area are numerous food outlets and a local bar 5 minutes walk from the house met our need for craft beers. The day ticket for buses at 600 yens was well worth it for city hopping. The house also had numerous leaflets on places to visit. We would definitely come back again and recommend this house to friends/family
