Guest Reviews

• Christy (10/5): Parfait ! - Tout était parfait ! La maison était incroyablement belle, très propre, avec tout ce qu’il fallait pour passer un très bon séjour ! Je reprendrai sans hésiter. Rien tout était parfait !
• Jodie (10/5): -
• Jens-Uwe (10/5): Just perfect. - I rarely do ratings of accommodations. However, this one is clearly outstanding in each and every aspect. We were a group of five, of which two couples, and it was just perfect. The location seems a bit far away from Kyoto centre, practically it is not. Public transport connections are good and there is a taxi stand 5min walk away, with taxi fares being very reasonable. I can only recommend it for a larger group, also because of the nice lounge area and cosy living room. During our stay it became a highlight, not just an accommodation.
• yukihisa (8/5): -
• Liza Gay (10/5): - The machiya is 5 minutes walk to Kiyomizude-ra and 10 minutes walk to the bus stop. It is clean. The check in and check out process is easy. There are plenty of food places nearby. It’s more of a concern than a dislike. We were given a phone and a number to call in case of an emergency and an email if we have questions. A situation occurred (after business hours) that required an urgent attention (not an emergency) but we needed an immediate response so we called the emergency phone number. We called twice, letting it ring longer, no response. We waited in case someone will call back when they see the missed calls. Nothing. So I sent an email even though we know it will be answered the following day. But I was just thinking, what if it were a true emergency and nobody answered the call? It’s a real concern.

• Cristina (10/5): Wonderful stay. - We really enjoyed our stay. The house is wonderful. Completely equipped for a great stay. We were there in summer and appreciated the A/C and how cool the house was. The location was great. Highly recommend.
• Esther (10/5): Excellent place to stay for for a few days. Fantastic service provided by staff @ Machiya -
• Michiko (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lindsey (10/5): Exceptional -
• Bradley (10/5): Beautiful location with an amazing property. Easy access to multiple tourist spots. - The location was amazing. Easy walk to kiyomizu dera even going up hill and an even easier walk all downhill to the train stations for travel around kyoto. The house itself was quite large and made staying with our larger group size still very comfortable. The shower/bath combo in the lower level was a lovely addition to be able to relax in after a day of walking. No negatives about this property.
• Cara (10/5): Exceptional -

• Phoebe (8/5): ok - local a bit inconvenient especially there’s not much restaurant nearby. also no breakfast can be provided.
