This place is beautiful, the area is a quiet residential neighborhood, it’s quite a long walk into the centre of Kyoto but very close to Kyoto station. The property is stunning especially the bath after a long day of walking👌the staff at the machiya office are very helpful and knowledgeable…I would totally recommend this property if you don’t mind a bit of a walk into the city, although gojo station is very close as are local buses.
