This should be a nice place to stay. However it is an extremely noisy area during the night (despite being on a small side street). With a large amount of cars and motorbikes passing during the night it is not a good place to stay as the walls are extremely thin.

This was top 2 of all the hotels I've ever stayed at! I don't want to give away the secret, though. If you book this, make sure you allow enough time to hang out at the house - you will want to! And ... take a bath! Fill the tub, turn the lights off, open the window and watch the river go by. 10 out of 10!

We loved staying at the Rinn Shijo, it was the most charming little house in the perfect location. Before arriving in Kyoto we received an email telling us to first go to the office. The is conveniently located just a few minutes walk from Kyoto station. We received a very friendly welcome, they gave us a keycard explained the property and asked if we wanted to leave our luggage. As check-in wasn't till 4 we thought we would have to return to pick up our bags, but they explained they could drop them at the property for us. Great service - it meant we were free to explore the city all day. The actual property is about 20 minutes from the office, it's a great location backing onto a river and a few minutes walk from Gion where you'll find bars, restaurants and all the buildings and life you would expect of Kyoto. That evening we found the house, which was easy as it has a clear sign on the front and getting in was as simple as swiping the card. Inside we found our bags waiting for us. A small entrance way gives way to a little kitchen a living room with tatami mats. A bathroom with a super deep bath overlooks the river. Upstairs are two comfortable beds. If your looking for a traditional Japanese house in the centre of town this couldn't be more perfect. We had a great time here and I would happily stay again.

The staff of Rinn Shijo were very pleasant. My stay at the Takasegawa guest house was an unforgettable experience. The location of the house was within walking distance to shopping, restaurants, and transportation. If you want an authentic Japanese experience, this home is the place to stay. I enjoyed sitting on the balcony at over the river. It was relaxing. For Rinn: Thank you for your hospitality. Please add a small lamp closer to the beds.

概ね良好でしたが、2泊したのですがミネラルウォーターやお茶などが1泊分しかなかったです。 改善点としては、周りの騒音対策と所々にクモの巣が有ったので、掃除の徹底をお願いいたします。
