【Pet is OK】 A over 80-years-old traditional local house ! Most suitable for family! To the Kyoto Railway museum and Kyoto aquarium 5 minutes on foot ! a over 80-year-old building. Bettei Umekoji is 7 minutes from Kyoto station by car. From the house it is a 5-minute walk to the Kyoto Aquarium. In this area there are many sights related to the Shinsen-gumi such as: To-ji Temple, Mibu-dera Temple, Nishi-Hongwan-ji Temple and the Shimabara Oomon. Nyakuichi-jinja Shrine is a 13-minute walk away. Here you will find a deity to good luck and career success, which is associated with Taira no Kiyonori. There are four Japanese style rooms in this house so 2 families traveling together will be comfortable here. On the opposite side of the garden we installed a Shigaraki cemaric bathtub which blends perfectly witht he elegance and charm of a machiya. This is also one of the rare guesthouses where you are welcome to bring your pets.Kimono or Yukata (a casual summer kimono) are available for rent at our office at Kyoto station.
Previously, I have been involved in tourism for a long time.  While thinking about the feelings of customers coming to Kyoto,  "What if there was such an inn ..." came to my mind little by little. It is nao Konoza who shaped it. A Kyoto townhouse that the people of Kyoto have been protecting sincerely. Tsuboiwa from the room, stairs going up to the second floor,  Even if you want to make a new one with a large beam on the ceiling, an unusually shaped span, etc. There are only things that cannot be made. However, unfortunately, it was gradually demolished,  Now it is very low and I missed it. At that time, the “inn” and “machiya” that I had envisioned were linked,  We have helped people who have been involved so far, and this inn has been completed.  Cannot be experienced at hotels and inns with luxurious furnishings A Kyoto townhouse where Kyoto is still living,  I hope you can spend a relaxing time in Kyoto. I went to a nearby temple, listened to the early morning and participated in the work,  Peek into local old shops,  Please enjoy the time like living in Kyoto.  While thinking of the smiles of everyone who is pleased, Cleaning the room, taking leaves in
