About this house rental

A guesthouse located just a short walk from Tōji Temple, an UNESCO World Heritage Site.

We have renovated a traditional Kyoto townhouse (Kyomachiya), built using time-honored local construction methods, into a guesthouse.

The first floor features a kitchen area, bathroom, toilet with a bidet, sink, and laundry area.

We’ve also prepared a garden viewable from the Japanese-style room, designed to help you unwind.
Please enjoy the scenery that changes with the seasons.
One of the Japanese-style rooms features a ceiling design made by piecing together kimono fabrics.
This, too, is sure to make your view something special.

We hope you’ll relax and unwind during your stay and enjoy Kyoto to the fullest.

Rooms
This room is certified as a “Kyoto Machiya”
built using traditional Japanese construction methods.

We’ve prepared this ryokan with the hope that it will evoke a sense of nostalgia and tranquility, much like your grandmother’s home.


Within this setting, we collaborated with a professional designer to create a space that stands out with its light and radiance, offering an escape from the everyday.
Another highlight is the view of a small courtyard garden inspired by the kare-sansui (dry landscape) style, which can be enjoyed from this room.

We’ve thoroughly renovated the bathrooms and other wet areas, resulting in a room that combines the best of traditional Japan with modern conveniences.
We hope you’ll use this space as a base for sightseeing or business.

Guest Access
Since the entire property is rented out exclusively, you are free to use all areas of the space.

Other Notes
No outdoor shoes allowed
Lodging Tax: 200 yen per person per night

The house is very clean and you get to experience living in a traditional home in Kyoto. Be prepared to use your own personal hotspot for the internet since they only have a mobile wifi but it’s down most of the time. The bathroom is outside the home but it has a nice toilet and all the toiletries are provided including toilet paper, laundry soap, hand soap, towels, toothbrushes, and even a comb. The shower area is separate from the toilet area but it has washer and you can hang your clothes in their provided hangers. They also have a nice tub inside the shower area. The water pressure is really awesome and they have water heater controller which works instantly. There’s a 7-11 and Lawsons nearby to get water and other supplies you need. There’s even vending machines all over the streets if you need water in the middle of the night and ran out. There’s Uber to help you get to this house and back to the airport. I believe the closest bus stop is Karatocho using bus #18. There’s a laundromat across Lu Pain bakery to help you do both wash and dry and they have soap included so you don’t need to bring laundry soap. They wash and dry in same machine and accept credit cards. There’s a drug store next to the washer dryer place. The washer dryer place in Google maps is incorrect - it’s actually to the right of the drug store. The home itself is super clean and no animal smell so if you have asthma you won’t have issues here, unless you are allergic to tatami mats. I had no problem.

Property itself was gorgeous and we are so glad we stayed there. We did cut our stay there short as the location was very different than what is put on the listing. We moved to a hotel closer to our friends for the rest of our stay. Was also very hard to find due to the location being not where it actually is
