About this property
Gion Matsubara - Cozy house right near Gion
A small, peaceful nest in the heart of Gion
This small renovated house located at the end of a residential alleyway in the heart of Gion will surprise you with its tranquillity and cosy atmosphere, perfect for 2 adults or even 3.
The space at the entrance will allow you to deposit all of your belongings and you will therefore be able to enjoy the bedroom/living room area in complete tranquillity. Even if numerous restaurants are located nearby, it will be possible for you to share a good breakfast or a meal thanks to its equipped kitchen.
If you are in a couple or with friends and wish to have a Japanese pied-à-terre in a quiet setting, look no further - this little nest is ideal for a "cocooning" stay in the heart of this tourist district. See you soon!!
