What an amazing place! After a warm and very efficient welcome, we had an amazing 6 night stay at this traditional Kyoto townhouse. The pictures on the site absolutely do it justice, it’s a beautiful house with beautiful tatami, wooden and wicker details. And a wooden ofuro, with a view of the small garden, which was an absolute joy. We felt at home and at peace from the start. Akane-an (the name of the house/machiya) is in a great location, in a quiet neighbourhood near Nijo-jo, two subway lines and lots of restaurants, shops and supermarkets. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay in Kyoto, or a better way to end our Japan trip. Definitely recommend!

Wonderful to have a warm home to enjoy at the end of the day. Loved the garden and the bath. We also appreciated the laundry facilities.

Location.

Bit dusty low ceilings and only one regular seat in whole house but it’s traditional Japanese so was expected.

Dryer didn’t work, clothes still wet after 2 cycles. Bathtub didn’t fill all the way and was not hot enough.
