## About this property

### Shulinso | 秀林荘

Shulinso is a laid-back, well-designed, machiya-inspired Kyoto home with plenty of attractions, charm, and style. With exposed wood throughout, a modern kitchen, and quaint but elegant Japanese flourishes, like the zen rock garden under the stairs, the spacious outdoor bath, and shoji and fusuma sliding doors, it's the ideal meeting point between old Japan and the modern-day. The two-story, six-person-capacity home is a wonderful choice for families or groups of friends.  
If you’re looking for an authentically ‘Kyoto’ experience, then booking a stay at Shulinso surely won’t disappoint. It comes complete with two outdoor Japanese-style gardens: one in front of the house inside the gate, and one in the center of the house with the onlooking bath. Shulinso also offers both western and traditional (futon) bedding options. The home’s blend of western and Japanese elements means guests can embrace Kyoto style without forgoing any additional comforts.   
Shulinso is centrally located in Kyoto, offering easy access to nearly all of the city's main attractions. However, being on a back street, Shulinso also offers the quiet comfort not normally found within the city, ensuring your stay is as peaceful as it is convenient.

This was the perfect stay for our family. It fit our family of 6 great, and it was super close to the Kyoto train terminal. It made traveling to different places super easy. Would definitely choose to stay here again.

This is a wonderful lodging facility. It's spacious, clean, and quiet. The location is just perfect, with only a ten (10) minute walk to Kyoto Station. I would stay here again!

Disliked: Cleanliness

It says 3 rooms in the Expedia page and only has two; and the room was not cleaned for our arrival. Also, the dryer took two cycles (4 hours and 3 hours) to leave the cloth not even dry. Besides that the spot is very nice looking.
