About the stay
This renovated machiya sits beside the Shirakawa canal, with exposed timber and tatami rooms that feel part of the Kyoto streetscape. Walk through Gion or along the Kamo River, then return to a quieter place to unwind.
Bedrooms on the first and second floors give families and friends some separation at night. An IH kitchen makes simple meals possible, while the hinoki bathtub adds a traditional touch to the end of the day. The house balances local character with everyday comforts.
