Great House in Kyoto

Our group really enjoyed our stay at this house in Higashiyama! The owner and his assistant are very nice and extremely helpful/responsive. We were traveling from the US and they made the whole process much easier, which we greatly appreciated. They are some of the best hosts we've had in Japan. The house itself is very nice and clean, and had everything we needed. The beds are comfy, the shower has really good water pressure, and the neighborhood is very historical and charming. It's also not very far from the nearest train station and bus stops, and there is a Lawson and other shopping close by. We would all absolutely stay here again and would highly recommend this house to other groups!

About the host

Hosted by Kei N

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.
