"The home was stunning, it's exactly what we needed to recharge after walking 30 miles a day for a week already. The private onsen washed away all fatigue, I highly recommend staying here to experience another level of relaxation whilst in Kyoto. It's conveniently located right by the gojo station so getting home after adventures is cake (3 minute walk, maybe) . I would gladly come back for a longer stay. Thank you so much for your hospitality and kindness!"

Our first time in a Ryokan and my first time in Japan. Now at the end of our journey, I think we started at the best of traditional Ryokans. Beautiful location, in the forest and deer all around. Very welcoming staff and we were looked after so well by our hostess, who was lovely and helped us with everything..she even spoke some English! Quite a personal experience. The meals were exquisite to look at and eat (breakfast and dinner). The rooms were very large and the views so restful, all...

10/10 Excellent

We are at this Machiya on our recent holiday to Kyoto. The host Yuki introduced the place to us and we got to make macha together. It was a lovely place to stay and the outdoor bath was really nice especially as it is winter time now. It is located near Kyoto station and Gojo station. We also had the traditional breakfast which was delicious. Overall we were glad we picked this place for our stay at Kyoto and would highly recommend it!!
