Actually I didn't stay at this hotel....I had to cancel my Japan trip due to some family emergency. Then I called the Hotels& other agency to see if it's possible to cancel my 5 reservations for hotels, 4 of these were non--refundable, or perseve it for my next trip. Saddly, Koiya's police not allow for that. And lucky, I got the others refunds.

We have stayed at Koiya (which means small Koifish) for 6 days and couldn't have made a better choice. It is not only a very beautiful traditional Machiya (japanese style wooden house) but also offered a very friendly experience all around. The staff which is there the majority of the day is always very helpful and have given us plenty of tips for our Kyoto itenary. It also wasn't an issue to keep our luggage there for an additional 3 days as we were traveling around. The kitchen has all things for you to cook food and also with a full house we never ran into shortage of bathrooms or toilets. As its an old house it can get colder around fall but the heater in the room brought us warm evenings! Allthough the house is more in the north of Kyoto, it still has a good bus connection from the center and is very close to some of the temples and shrines including Kinkakuji. From our Japan trip this has been our accomondation highlight, especially thanks to the staff and the beauty of this house. We can only recommend to book some nights at Koiya if you are staying in Kyoto.

最初から最後まで、とても気分の良い滞在でした。 夜中に人が歩く音で目が覚めたりもしましたが、こればっかりは、時の運ですものねっ。 今度は、２階のお庭がキレイに見える部屋にも宿泊したいと思いました。 今回の、小さなお部屋も、何不自由なく、とても快適でしたけれども。 ありがとうございました。
