“Staying here feels like stepping into classic Kyoto; the traditional house, nestled in Gion, offers an authentic experience with tatami mats, futons and views of a koi pond. The location puts you within walking distance of cafes, restaurants, and major temples; plus, the host is helpful with local recommendations. Thin walls may require earplugs, but the charm of old Kyoto makes it worthwhile.”
