Who stays here
Best suited for
Couples
Intimate, traditional machiya atmosphere is romantic, though room types lean toward family configurations.
Solo travellers
High guest ratings, central Kyoto location, and economy twin room option work well for solo explorers.
Families
Multiple family room types, a pool, and a restaurant make this a natural fit for families.
Business travellers
WiFi and central location help, but the intimate 2-star ryokan lacks dedicated business facilities.

"Great place to stay if you are looking for a traditional Japanese home to stay."
Liked
The place is in a small residential street off a that is in a bus route, easily accessible by bus after getting off the subway. Quite convenient. Lots of eateries around. Property is very comfortable and clean. Feels very much like home. Owner was very helpful and kind. She even brought over Xmas treats for our grandkids. Beautiful, generous gesture to make us feel at home. Thanks so much for being so thoughtful. Definitely will come back to stay when we are in Kyoto again.
