Our group of 7 people really enjoyed our visit to this lovely house. It is literally right in the middle of the old town Kiyomizu area and gives you the feel of living in Japan. You can walk to Kiyomizu in 10-15 mins and Gion in 10-20. Having 3 bedrooms and bathrooms was great- do note that in one bedroom there isn't a separate sink- not a big deal but just something to plan for if you have ladies who need to dry hair etc. It clearly shows what is in each room on the floor plan picture in the listing. If you are staying multiple days would recommend a wash and dry of the towels at midpoint. The kitchen is well outfitted and sits 6 people nicely. Convenient stores (7-11, Fresco) are all minutes away for quick stocking up. My 12 year old nephew said it was the coolest place we stayed on our trip so I'd call that a ringing endorsement. Also, the management was super responsive at every point- before and during our visit. And their referral for the in house tea ceremony was one of the highlights of our stay. When I first reviewed the posting for this property it looked a bit too good to be true given how unusual it is to find something in this location, but the pictures truly represent what is on offer and the stay was overall a great experience. My thanks to Bliss and the team!

Easy access to temples and sites. Close to buses. Great food too.

The inside is very tiny and the door opening are very low, for a 6’2” person I struck my head several times. Also this is not a VRBO, it is a managed property and getting accurate information regarding bed layouts and rental car parking were tough. If you drive a rental prepare to pay an average of about $60-100 USD per day. The location was exceptional for old historical Kyoto neighborhood.

The house was a traditional japanese house, plenty of space for 5 people like us. The location was perfect, walking distance from the best places and the bus stop right outside the street was useful!

3 bedrooms and 3 shower rooms. A private Japanese garden and a tatami room. Lovely wooden beams. Wonderful location near Kiyomizu-dera, and walking distance from Gion district. Bus stop very near. The place is just one of many corporate properties -- but the corporation/family still manages to communicate well and provide a relatively warm experience.

Stayed for 5dys for family of 7, having 3 Bathrooms was rare in Japan. Exceptionally clean, instructions translated to English w/ labels, tourist info @ door. Little amenities very appreciated, umbrellas, tea and coffee, salt and pepper and olive oil, so you don't have to rush getting them. Very quiet neighborhood, walk out to bus in 2 mins. I would rent again if in Kyoto. Owner responds promptly by e mail. thanks again to allow us to stay

Great location, with plenty of room for a large family or friends. We had four adults and this was the only place in Japan that had more than one bathroom at a reasonable price. Close to a taxi stand, train stations, and shopping. Would definitely stay here again.
