This Machiya is a beautiful well maintained traditional Japanese home. The hotel staff were quick to respond to my request for additional blankets and spoke English which was very convenient. Lovely accommodation and highly recommend!
The stairs were a bit scary honestly. But I understand that is how these homes were built and there isn’t much that can done about it. I would not recommend this house for anyone who is concerned about climbing very steep stairs to get to the sleeping rooms. Also the door frames are short and my husband kept hitting his head on them. The house was not made for tall people, lol. But again, we understand this is a traditional home that was not built for folks like us.

The authentic style of the home as well as the history. It made you feel like you were really in Japan.
Loved it all.

We booked this Machiya due to its central location and we were not disappointed. It is within easy walking distance to many temples and the central shopping area including Nishiki market, Higashiyama and Gion district. The whole area is made up of small traditional houses and is a world away from the high rises of Tokyo. This was by far my favourite location during our stay in Japan.
The rooms were a little on the small side but they were what we expected. I would say the Machiya was on the cosy side. Certainly large enough for a group of 4 but would probably be tight for a group of 6.
We used the washer/dryer which was a godsend. However there were no English instructions and we never did figure out how to put the dryer on. Intructions in English would be useful

The location- tucked away from the “city” but still close to things to do and close to a coffee shop.
Should have let people know it is easy to rent bikes so you don’t have to take a taxi or bus everywhere nearby.
