the inn was an amazing way to add a quiet authenticity to our visit to kyoto. so peaceful. the architecture and artifacts of the building’s history continued to amaze over our 4 night stay. Ms Tano’s breakfast was one of the best meals of our trip!

I can’t say enough about the house and our lovely host. Our room was a Japanese style one.. charming, spacious with a private garden. The breakfast was 10/10. Will come back for sure and tell our friends about the wonderful place.

WE HAD AN AMAZING TIME AT KYOTO, AND A GREAT DEAL HAD TO DO WITH OUR STAY AT TANOYA.
THE PLACE IS BEAUTIFUL, YET SIMPLE. THE ATTENTION TO DETAIL, AND THE WARMTH OF OUR HOSTESS MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE.
I WOULD RECOMMEND IT WITHOUT HESITATION.
BOOK YOUR STAY WITH THE WHOLE JAPANESE BREAKFAST, WHICH IS DELICIOUS. COMPLETELY WORTH IT!
