This place was a delightful little home that was very welcoming and comfortable. Couldn’t have been more pleased with the stay.

Dear Nicole, Thank you very much for your kind review of "Shimabara Kaiden". It was it a pleasure to accommodate you in this traditional machiya holiday house! We hope everyone made great memories in this house and exploring all that Kyoto has to offer! Kind regards, "Shimabara Kaiden", MACHIYA RESIDENCE INN Kyoto
Really great experience for a Japanese home feeling. A few extra comforts like extra pillows would be good but otherwise perfect. Close to the JR station and bus stop but also in a quiet area. Check in service was excellent.
