Kikou

Located in Kyoto, this welcoming vacation home lets you experience it all. Your feet will make short work of the 4-minute walk to Kenninji Temple or the 9-minute walk to Kawaramachi Street. If you're looking to expand your horizons and see other nearby locales, you can catch a train at either Kiyomizu-gojo Station, a short 8-minute walk away, or Gion-shijo Station, 13 minutes away.

This vacation rental features air conditioning and blackout drapes/curtains. You can also use the deep soaking bathtub, plus other bathroom amenities like towels, shampoo, and soap. The kitchen is equipped with a stovetop, a full-sized refrigerator/freezer, a microwave, and cookware. And because there's a washer/dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing. Other amenities include bed sheets and an ironing board.
