Kyoto peace
This was a lovely home and was such a welcome change from hotels. Kei and Mika were so welcoming and helpful. We needed to find the special gift envelopes for a wedding and sent us lots of links. The location is perfect and quiet and easy to get around.

A lovely, well-cared-for home in a historic neighborhood of Kyoto. Our host, Kei, was very welcoming and gracious. We only wish we had more time to stay and explore all that Kyoto has to offer!

Lovely stay
Mr Nakamura and his son were super helpful and gracious, they explained everything we needed to know about the property and they were so friendly. The property is located in a cozy neighborhood and allows for easy, close access to everything. Mr. Nakamura maintained good contact prior to our arrival to make sure everything was ready for our needs. We wish we would have been at this property longer, and we would readily recommend it to anyone going to Kyoto.

About the host

Hosted by Kei N

Host profile image
Hi. My name is Kei. I was born and raised in Kyoto. My family has lived here for more than 250 years. I renovated my houses and started B&B simply because it's very fantastic to meet new guests and to have conversations with them. As a genuine Kyotoite, it would be great if I can show you the core beauty of Kyoto.
