Highly recommended for getting authentic and unique experience of staying at the Japanese house. Great location, near to Shoji Dori, a huge shopping street, a short bus ride to Gion and metro station allowing to get to all historical attractions.
The home is really nice, with all necessary amenities, clean and roomy.
Want to specifically mention its interior decorations, really awesome.
Tourist tip: print out your reservation with the home’s address in Japanese to avoid any difficulties with finding your way to the location, you show it to the taxi drivers and they will find the place.
And special thanks to the Team: you are so helpful and friendly!

The hotel is a single-family old Kyoto house, with a small two-story area and complete functions. The front desk and the phone have Chinese service. The reservation communication is very convenient. The front desk and the room are in two places. After the check-in, there is a staff car to the residence. The open-air bathtub experience is great. Enjoy the exquisite Japanese garden. In winter, it is equipped with outdoor heating. The house is not soundproofed for a long time. It will be awakened by the vehicle in the morning, but the whole is still a quiet residential area. If you book, please pay attention to the mailbox. You can reply to the service of a Japanese mattress by email. You need to reply to the email two days in advance. Since there is no timely reply, I didn't experience it! The overall is great. I want to feel the traditional local culture of Kyoto. It is recommended to book here.

copacopa**5-Star Review of Kyoto Homestay**
Our recent stay at this charming homestay in Kyoto was nothing short of magical! Located just a 10-minute taxi ride from Kyoto Station, it offered the perfect blend of convenience and tranquility. The host was incredibly welcoming, making us feel right at home.
The highlight was the traditional hotpot dinner, prepared with fresh, local ingredients. It was a delightful experience to enjoy such a unique meal in a cozy setting.
The rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated, reflecting the rich culture of Kyoto. We loved the serene garden view from our window. Overall, this homestay exceeded our expectations and provided a memorable Kyoto experience. Highly recommended!

KseniiaSThis house was an ideal place for our family of five to stay at Kyoto. Traditional vibe and modern equipment were a perfect match. We had everything we needed and even more.

Guest UserHighly recommended! A family experience that is very satisfying.
I am very grateful to my friend for recommending this Kyoto Machiya. The double-storey house can accommodate four of us, as well as outdoor baths. Although I only stayed for one night, I will definitely stay again next time I return to Kyoto!

Traditional Japanese-style squatters, suitable for family stays, our group of 6 adults and 2 children is very suitable, although breakfast is not provided, but there are many convenience stores nearby, travel is also very convenient. If you check in, you need to go to Bell Kyoto Station. After check in, there will be a staff member to send you to the room. You can also store your luggage for free.

Newly renovated when we stayed back in May, the place is very much in the neighborhood but directly accessible to the kamo river. It was a bit out from the city area, luckily the host provided two bikes but it was so inconvenient to park the bike! Overall we are happy with the stay!

Stayed for 4 nights with my family (3 adults 1 child). House well maintained and amenities provided (toothbrush, comb, cotton buds, bath salt, facial wash, bath gel, shampoo, conditioner). There were pots and pans, condiments, and rice too. Fresco Supermarket, Family Mart, yoshinoya, yayoiken, and McDonald's were all within walking distance. Very quiet neighbourhood, which was a nice break from city life. My family and I enjoyed staying here, and I will recommend it!

It is a temporary but nice and spacious home in Kyodo. It is located in a very quiet neighbourhood, and the facilities are very good. The beddings on the tatami floor are so good that I slept like a baby for all three nights.
The only inconvenience is that there’s no cleaning service for my three-night stay, making the trash bins a bit messy!
But all in all, it is super great experience to stay in this lovely Japanese old house, with all the modern convinience such as floor heating, for a Kyodo holiday.
