"Our family had a wonderful stay here. It was such a spacious, comfortable, clean, quiet and beautiful house. We really enjoyed all the amenities included. The kids enjoyed making Matcha with the host. The huge selection of complimentary drinks in the fridge was a bonus. The private outdoor bath was perfect after a long day of walking. The beds and tatami are super comfortable. There is a laundry and luggage storage room which both came in handy. They really think of everything here. Easy to...

"The place was amazing. Very roomy with modern amenities in a traditional style Japanese apartment. The location is perfect in the area you want to be and close to train and bus transportation. We had some confusion with the instructions which indicated that we had to go to a separate location to check in. That cost us stress and some time but it got settled. They need to update their instruction page if they haven't already. You just go straight to the property and use the keypad."

"Wow!! What a special place. Our favorite accommodation on our trip to Japan. The small streets and alleys are so charming and being next to the Yasaka Pagoda is incredible. Head out early in the morning before the crowds and it's magical to walk around, especially with the cherry blossoms blooming. The alley way to walk down to house is small and it feels like a secret place to stay! Perfect location to explore Gion area and head up to Kiyomizu-dera. We were only in Kyoto for one night and...

"窓からの景色や部屋自体も綺麗でスタッフさんの対応もとても良くいい所でした。"

"We loved this two story home. It was tucked back in an alley and very quiet and private, yet very close to many things! Really a great location. Claire, our house manager, was very friendly and helpful although we didn’t have the opportunity to meet. Instructions to get there were clear. Everything was very clean. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again."

"I like everything for this Machiya. I mean it. Extremely good. Of course it costs higher than normal and average accomodation. But to me it worths for sure."

"古民家の雰囲気がしっかりありながらも、とても清潔で食器や小物類も揃っていたので困ることはなかったです。お布団も心地よくぐっすり寝れました。 歩いて数分のところにおしゃれなバーやコンビニ、パン屋さんやピザ屋さんがあって、駅までも歩ける距離だったので家族連れでしたが、何も問題なく過ごせました。 これだけ条件がよくコスパは素晴らしかったです。 また京都に来ることがあったらまた利用させてもらいます。"

"Not only is it a beautiful place to stay but very peaceful. Our host was very loving, accompanying, and we didn't want to leave. Also, try the pajamas! I bought two pair. "

"We loved the building. Unique and traditional but had wonderful modern upgrades that fit the style beautifully."

"Good experience to stay in traditional Japanese house.clean and kitchen well equipped. Washing machine was convenient. Due to it being an older building, insulation isn’t very good and gets very cold in the winter and need heaters in all rooms. Location is not great as it is walking distance to most places. Bus stop 7 minute walk. Could have provided more furniture such as chairs. Overall nice experience besides being on the cold side."

"We enjoyed our experience at Hatoba-an. Much more than a hotel room, or even a ryokan, it's a slice of history and lifestyle that you can explore completely at your leisure. We would love to stay again!"

"This was a great place to visit the area around Yasaka pagoda and also the Gion district is a short walk away. The accommodation was gorgeous and comfortable for our family of 6. It was just a little tricky to contact the host after. hours."

"Really beautiful japanese style hotel"

"We travelled as a family of 4 with 2 young adults. They thought it was real cool place. It had authentic character and we liked the tatami rooms and mats. We also liked that we had the place to ourselves. It felt liked we lived in Kyoto and walked in the back alley to our home. It was great to have more space than a hotel room. Good quiet central location and close to transit and those popular convenience stores. The experience here was memorable as much as sight seeing in Kyoto. Enjoyable!"

"The accommodation is behind the store. The stair is a bit too high to climb up and down. The rest of the facility (bath tub, dryer etc) are good. They also offer use of bicycles which make the experience more enjoyable. Lots of restaurants and laundry places "

"Great Season to travel Kyoto"

"I really like the machiya experience when coming to Tokyo. The unique feature of this property compared to other machiyas I stayed at is the outdoor Japanese style tub. This was awesome at the end of long days walking around in Kyoto."

"Had a wonderful stay here. Very relaxing and the staff was so kind and attentive. Loved the bath and all the amenities. The property is just beautiful "

"Excellent housekeeping and very friendly and helpful staff "

"Beautiful apartment with onsen on the terrace kitchenette fridge my family loved this stay the most out of all of our stays in Japan. Very spacious for families "

"We had a larger room including a kitchenette, nice. The local staff are extraordinary. It’s easy to get around Kyoto by bus and Metro from the location with Google maps and an IC card such as pasmo. We enjoyed the sauna spa."
