【 Perfect for Families & Groups 】
Kiyomizu Bettei is a grand, 2-story traditional Kyo-Machiya townhouse. With its spacious layout, it is the absolute perfect choice for families traveling with children, multi-generational trips, or larger groups looking to stay comfortably under one roof.
【 Tradition Meets Modern Comfort 】
This home beautifully preserves its heritage, featuring timeless architecture and a stunning traditional courtyard garden visible from the living room. While honoring the past, it is fully updated with high-end modern comforts: a sleek bathroom, bidet toilets, a fully equipped kitchen, cozy underfloor heating, independent air conditioning, and high-speed Wi-Fi.
【 Premium yet Peaceful Location 】
Our neighborhood offers the best of both worlds. Kiyomizu Bettei is situated right at the foot of the World Heritage Kiyomizu Temple. You can easily enjoy a beautiful walk to Kyoto's most iconic spots, including Ninenzaka, Yasaka Shrine, and Gion (the historic Geisha district).
While it is exceptionally convenient for exploring the city, the house itself is tucked away in a charming, peaceful residential lane. After a busy day of sightseeing, you can return to a quiet and serene sanctuary to relax like a local.
Easy Access: City buses or rental bikes can take you to most of Kyoto's famous sites within 30 minutes.

10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2025
Very kind hosts who went above and beyond to help us with shipping our luggage around Japan! The property was beautiful and well cared for.
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2025
Wonderful place. Convenient location; walking distance to everything! It was simple to check-in, and 2 people greeted us at arrival and explained everything about our stay.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
Everything was great. Easy check in. Clean. Lots of space. It's a traditional Japanese residence in a typical residential neighborhood. So it's all beautiful and feels authentic - down a tiny little alley - because that's what Japan is. It's accessible by a couple of bus lines that are pretty frequent but they are busses and often crowded. That's about the only downside.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2025
This is a great place to stay for a small group or family. Conveniently located and hosts were easy to contact and very accommodating. Highly recommend!
