The building was beautiful and felt like a traditional inn. It’s up on a hill, and secluded from the bustle of the city.

this is the place
The best part of my vacation. Magical quiet and private. Inside of historic park on top of a hill. I love this special place and will come back. The hosts are very helpful. The bath is great. Breakfast is delicious. Very close to walk to temples and shops. I am so happy here, looking into the garden and listening to the birds. Amazing!

Amazing find: traditional B&B in historic area
Great location on a peaceful, forested hillside spotted with temples and shrines. Easy walking to major sites and Gion.
What really made it excellent was the high level of service from the staff, who were very accommodating and helpful (and speak English).
Traditional style with tatami mats, futons, yakuta, a couple Japanese-style baths, etc.
Great place to relax and have easy access to historic/cultural sites.
It was great to enjoy the peace and tranquillity of this inn. Kyoto was much busier than I imagined so staying here was a nice change and felt homely. Would recommend staying here but maybe arrange for a shuttle to get up the hill. It was a bit of a walk with luggage but not an unpleasant one.
