From the owner

A fully renovated machiya style vacation home with three BRs, island kitchen & dining, tea room and bath tub both facing Japanese garden, and fully equipped with high-tech appliance.　3 min to subway/tram station, 5 min to Kawaramachi / Gion by train, a direct access to Arashiyama and Kinkaku-ji, 13 min taxi from Kyoto station, and 1 min to two supermarkets.

The two-story townhouse consists of a stainless island kitchen in a wide dining area, a living room, a tea room facing a Japanese garden, a spacious entrance hall, an open air wood deck, and a powder/toilet room (with an automatic washer and dryer machine) and a shower/bath room facing the garden on the 1st floor and the master bedroom (either two single beds or a super-king), a tatami room (double), and the center hall (double) on the 2nd floor. The tea room on the 1st floor can be used for a single bedroom if not used for relaxing space to view the small Japanese garden over coffee/tea.

The house is the north part of twin house structure (and independent from the south) and first built in 1930’s as wooden townhouse with its unique twin design at the time. After continuous minor modifications and fixations over several decades since then, the entire building went through its first-time full renovation in 2016 by a collaboration of Kyoto’s top machiya (traditional Kyoto wooden house) renovator and provider HACHISE CO.,LTD. and Kyoto’s entrepreneur architecture, furniture and interior designer FHAMS CO., LTD.

    Response from the owner
    Hello Jessica, I am VERY SORRY that I have somehow missed your note nearly a year in the midst of corona pandemic. I enjoyed speaking with you in Japanese and it was helpful to communicate with your friends as well. I heard Shanghai is doing very well in handling the virus now so do hope that our government will soon lower the restriction for Chinese people and can enjoy meeting with you all again! Meanwhile, please stay safe and health! Kind regards, Shimpei

    Response from the owner
    Hello Ian, thank you for leaving this great and informative review and VERY SORRY to have found this just now! It is so pity that the world has been changed dramatically since then and we are forced to be physically apart from each other. Now in Japan, domestic travelers resumed moving around a bit and I take a couple of them a month but do miss all those coming from outside. But now I do have more time, fortunately during this unhappiness, to make the house a bit cleaner and do a petit renovation so am looking forward to the next chance to welcome your family. Stay safe and healthy! Shimpei

    This was one of the best places we stayed in all of Japan. Shimpei thought of everything one might need. His amenities rivaled some of the nice ryokans we stayed in! The washer/dryer was awesome and t… More

    Hi Ferris and Mike, thank you for staying and leaving the review. It was my pleasure to talk with you two at both check in and out. The Thai restaurant is just a couple of months old and I have not tried either the restaurant and the bar. Now I should try both and thank you for valuable information for me and my future guests!

    Response from the owner
    Thank you Miriam for the stay AND spending time to write such a detailed and informative comments which should definitely be beneficial to my future guests! Yes, I also didn't feel like we met for the first time but rather felt meeting a friend I had known already. I sometimes felt like this after talking about several topics over months with guests. I enjoyed all prior conversations with you and thought the questions are all useful for me to understand the concerns of those traveling with kids, which in turn I can better serve similar guests in the future. I know that there should be so many questions as I too wanted to ask many when I planned travelling abroad in my life (but there was nobody at the time without AirBnB...). Glad to learn you like the bed - I spent one month for research and end up with the mix of mattress. Looking forward to see your family or your friends sometime in the near future. Didn't know that you cooked wagyu from the supermarket by yourself in the kitchen, great idea to enjoy the beef of the same quality as in restaurants with less budget! Shimpei
