“Wonderful traditional inn!”

10.0

23 Nov 2024

This was a really lovely place. Excellent location, in a quiet road, so very peaceful but right near loads of restaurants, bars - 2 mins walk to a sushi place, soba place and craft beer bar. Also easily walkable in 15 mins to the main geisha area and shrines. The place itself is really gorgeous, very traditional. Everything is extremely clean. The guy who runs it is very sweet and tells you loads of information about the area. And also has left loads of info sheets with interesting things to see and do. We got a traditional room with a futon mat, and it was very comfy. And also very large, especially for japan. I would stay here again amd recommend it!

Fantastic location, right in the middle of town - short stroll to everything. Big room. Loved that the futons get laid out for guests while out for dinner. Old school character and charm.

“Great little spot in the heart of Gion for those on a tight budget”

Amazing location. Small room, but to be expected for the price in the heart of Gion. Host was great. Bonus having Tama, the cat, cruising around. Very reasonably priced laundry facility. So pleased I chose this place for our four nights in Kyoto.
