This was a fantastic house centrally located in Kyoto. Very close to the train station and Nishiki Market area. Very traditional home with both western style beds and tatami mats. Both were very comfortable. The air conditioning worked well to keep us cool. The host was very helpful and communicated well. She met us at the house during check in to show us the house. We highly recommend.

Location, location, location. We were less then 10 minute walk to the train station and about a 20 minute walk to the major shopping arcades in Kyoto. We found a great little cafe (Astarte Cafe) about a 4 minute walk away and had excellent coffees every morning, but the house had nespresso, provided and we had all the cooking pans and utensils needed to cook a meal. The microwave is also a toaster. There is an upstairs that was rented out but they were relatively quiet at night. This is on a quiet street and perfect after a day of exploring the city. The mattresses were comfortable and the communication was excellent. All our questions were answered. Just be aware it is an old house but well maintained and updated. We had plenty of room. Big plus was the washer and dryer! We did laundry daily and they provided the detergent (thank you!). Will return if ever in Kyoto again.

We had an amazing stay. Host communication was amazing and very patient as we didn’t know our arrival time until same day. Rina met us for checkin and gave us an excellent tour after giving us excellent directions from Kyoto Station. We arrived on New Year’s Day which made it challenging for eating at restaurants, but the hosts created a list of restaurants that were open. The house is as pictured. The tub/shower area overlooking the small outdoor courtyard was nice and peaceful. The tub held the water’s heat for a very long time making for an excellent soak. The washer/dryer combo was also very useful as we were in the middle of a 10 day trip. The beds comfortable as well. The location is excellent. Restaurants close by, Family Mart & 7-11 also close by for those little items. We would highly recommend staying and would definitely come back if the opportunity arises.

Thank you for the great review. We are so glad that Michelle and her family had a comfortable stay. Many stores are closed during the New Year holidays, so it was honestly quite difficult to create the list, but We're relieved that it was of some help. We were relieved to hear that they were able to stay comfortably in the townhouse. It's cold in Kyoto in the winter, so We were glad to hear that they had taken measures to protect their feet from the cold. If you have a chance to come to Kyoto, please stay at our house again. We are looking forward to seeing you next time. Take care.Arigato!

Thank you for staying with us. We are very sorry for the noise from the upper floors. Because it is a townhouse, it is structured so that sound tends to echo a little more easily than a normal house.

Wow.. what a beautiful property. Host was very communicative and we were able drop off our luggage early. Upon return to check-in we were greeted by our host who explained everything in great detail and took us on a tour of the house to ensure that we were familiar with the operation of everything from shower to laundry. The fine craftsmanship of the remodelled home was evident throughout. The property is in a very convenient location. Very walkable to many locations and train stations are within 6-8 min walk.

Magic in Kyoto

Kyoto is wonderful city and this Machiya made it even more so. We spent five nights and enjoyed every moment. This is a lovely traditional house with great charm, yet modern amenities. It's in a perfect location. Very quiet, but near all the sights, shopping and transportation. The house was very clean and the shower is probably the best we have ever encountered. The futons were extremely comfortable. If we get a chance to return to Kyoto, this will be our place to stay.

Traditional Japanese Home Stay

As the listing indicates, it's in a great area- close to the subway and short walk to restaurants, Nishiki Market, Gion area for shopping, etc. Home is a wonderful traditional Japanese home that really adds to the experience. (Beware: traditional Japanese home low headroom! I'm 5'9" and my son is 6'2" so we had to lower our heads as we went in/out rooms, but it was all good!!) Shower and bath were fantastic!Host was wonderful. We found 2 beds a little too firm for our liking, but upon letting her know they came by with some additional mattress toppers and all was good.If back in Kyoto I wouldn't hesitate to stay again,

Thank you for staying with us. We are very happy that it turned out to be a very meaningful trip to Kyoto. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the low ceiling. In traditional Japanese houses, all homes are built with low ceilings. I hope there are no injuries. I apologize for the inconvenience caused by the firmness of the futon, which affected the sleeping comfort. I am thinking of purchasing a new mattress. Please come and stay again without hesitation. All the staff are looking forward to your visit. Arigato!

Lovely home, wonderful stay!

We had the great fortune of being able to book Shimoza-an during cherry blossom season, and had a wonderful stay here! I cannot say enough good things about this place. I spent six weeks traveling through Asia with my family, and this was, without a doubt, our favorite place that we stayed at. The house is beautiful, the beds are comfortable, and I still dream about the bathroom... I don't know if it was just because the weather was a bit chilly during our stay, but the shower at the end of the day, followed by a nice soak in the deep tub... It was something to look forward to! We found food, transportation, and attractions easily accessible from here. I have zero complaints, and already know where I want to stay next time I am lucky enough to find myself back in Kyoto.

An unforgettable experience

Making reservation and payment was very straight forward. There was a hitch when we made our payment but the team was extremely helpful with it. Nothing was too much of a hassle even reservation of restaurants and taxi. Upon arriving, everything was already ready for us. The accommodation had everything we need. The air conditioner is definitely a massive plus given the very hot and humid autumn. Washing machine is also a dryer which is fantastic. Close to a subway exit and it is at the intersection of two lines. There is a pharmacy and 2 convenience stores close by. Overall it was a very comfortable stay for us all.

Perfect Vacation Home in Kyoto

This is our first family trip to Japan. With two young children, this property was perfect for our needs. It is in a very quiet and safe neighborhood with no busy tourism stuff going on. Yet it is very convenient by being close to subway stations and major streets. There is also a small market just several minutes of walking from the rental property, which has milk, bread, eggs etc in case we need anything. The house has the traditional charms and modern amenities. We enjoyed the shower particularly. The washer/dryer was definitely helpful when you have young kids traveling. It was very comfortable for the four of us with floor heating and air conditioning during a November stay. Mariko is very responsive, friendly and helpful. She speaks fluent English which is a great help for our stay. Prior to our arrival, she gave us tips on how to travel to Kyoto etc. During our stay, she recommended restaurants and even helped to make reservations for us. We have already recommended this property to several friends for their future consideration. We wish we had a longer stay to fully explore Kyoto and enjoy Shimoza-an.

Great place for a family

My family and I loved staying in this home. Old traditional house in the middle of Kyoto. Clean and lovely with plenty of space for us. Great place to stay with a family, a group of friends, or two couples traveling together. I wish there were clearer public transportation information. The address didn't register in google maps so we took a cab from Kyoto station. Within 15 minutes of checking in a very friendly person came to show us how to use all the appliances and showed us where everything was. He also collected a 3000 yen tax that we needed to pay to the city. Not sure why that wasnt included in the overall vrbo price but be aware and add that to your costs when figuring your budget. I believe it was a variable cost based on number of people and duration of stay so it will likely be different. 3000 paid for 5 people for three days. There was a terrific little cocktail bar a few blocks away called Tsukumo that made incredible in season only fresh fruit daquiris. Not usually my choice of drink but after tasting my wife's, it's all I ordered. This house was our favorite place we've stayed in Kyoto. It's now our go to when we go back.

Thank you for staying with us. Thank you also for your accurate review. I was relieved that you seemed to enjoy your stay very much. There is a separate system for lodging tax, which is collected in cash and paid directly to Kyoto City. Therefore, it is collected in cash on site. It depends on the amount of accommodation per person, but it is collected at an amount of 200 yen per person per night, so the amount varies depending on each group. Normally, it would be nice if it could be included in the accommodation fee, but we are very sorry. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. If you have a chance to come to Kyoto, please stay at our house again. We are looking forward to seeing you next time. Arigato!

Superb house in prime location with superb host.

Our first visit to Japan and to the beautiful city of Kyoto has given my wife and me enormous pleasure and its was an experience of a lifetime. A great part of the success of this incredible vacation was due to the quality and the location of the vacation house Shimoza-an and even more to our lovely host Mariko. First things first: Mariko's presence was a joy on its own, she is to us the personification of 'das Land des Lächelns', Japan as 'the country of smiles'. Her omnipresent assistance, the abundant fountain of information, her accompanying us on an introductory walk in the neighbourhood, Mariko as help desk at the phone when we needed her during our Kyoto walks, her tips for interesting addresses and people (on our request she even took us to a carpenter in Arashiyama for a talk about wood carving and Japanese chisels and whetting stones), her visiting the vacation house to check if we needed something: Mariko has been our ever smiling personal guide, private shopping assistant and interpreter. Arigatissimo, Mariko. You are a jewel in Kyoto's crown! We were lucky to stay in Shimoza-an for two weeks. And even after a brief Ryokan experience at the more than superb Shiraume Ryokan, we were glad to return to Shimoza-an, a large and comfortable renovated machiya close to Sanjo-dori. This is smack in the cosiest part of Kyoto city center and yet in an extremely quiet location in Kamanza-dori. No loud taxis during the night like in Gion, no drunk tourists, no unrealistic touristic surroundings like Gion, no crowds of school children shopping in souvenir and snack shops. This neighbourhood is real, with real Kyoto people, buying fruit at a local fruit stand, riding a bicycle to work or having a coffee at nearby Starbuck's. But also, the big shopping district is just a short walk away. Do not hesitate: Shimoza-an is the ideal place for a vacation in this miraculous, fantastic, beautiful, easy going city of Kyoto.

Over all, very good.

Overall a very good experience.staff was very helpful and very attentive. The only drawback was The lack of sufficient towels for our stay. Two towels for two people for a few Days was not working for me. We had to clean them every day. But over all, a good experience and I’d recommend the apartment to any traveler.

Darum fiel die Entscheidung auf diese Unterkunft

I liked the typical 'eel' shape as called in Kyoto (the front side is not so wide and the house extends in length). I thought it could be so nice to preserve this townhouse and make our guests even for few days to live as Kyoto people lived for centuries with traditions plus a more today comfort in the daily house use.

Das macht diese Unterkunft einzigartig

The beauty of this townhouse lies in the balance between keeping its traditional Machiya soul and adding modern touches to satisfy the needs of our international guests.

We are perfectly located in the heart of Kyoto on a quiet street, just a 5-minute walk from Karasuma Oike Subway Station.

At a five-minute walking distance, you will find Nijo Castle, the historic home of the Shogun for over 400 years. Many other iconic spots are also within walking distance, such as Rokkakudo Temple (known as the "navel of Kyoto" and the birthplace of the famous Ikenobo ikebana school), the Imperial Palace Park, and the colorful Nishiki food market.

Bus stops, banks, post offices, museums, art galleries, and a wide variety of restaurants, cafes, and bars are all just steps away—giving you everything you need for an unforgettable Kyoto experience!
