ゲストハウス＆サロン 京都 月と — Hotel in Kyoto

After 10 or so trips to Kyoto, I can definitely say Tsukito is one of the best values. This stately, tastefully decorated home with decades of history welcoming travellers is a glimpse into Japan that you simply will not get at a sleek hotel or modern apartment rental. The owner has transformed her grandmother's guesthouse into a piece of pre-war Kyoto subdued elegance, with a homey and family-like atmosphere. I definitely felt like I got to see a slice of Japanese art and craft history that is hidden behind closed doors and somewhat lost in the sands of time. Floor is creaky, and some areas have seen lots of use, but hands down I will be staying here again for sure. ||||I would say this is romantic hotel for those people who value nostalgia, wabi sabi, stateliness, and the allure of the bygone.|||| Also, it's walking distance from the Rohm Theater, Kyoto Modern Terrace, and best art book store in...

Absolutely beautiful, cozy Machiya in Kyoto, walking distance to a train line and with easy access to the bus system.

Can't say enough good about this place. The staff were very welcoming, all spoke excellent English, and were happy to help with any requests or questions we had. The room was spacious and clean, and the tatami mats are very comfy to walk on. The futon mattresses were a bit hard, but you are sleeping on a thin mattress on the floor, so it's to be expected.

Outside the rooms, the house has a couple common areas, including one cozy corner overlooking the interior garden all machiya seem to have. It's truly a beautiful place.

A+, absolutely recommended, and that it's near some very good food (go check out Ahodouri) right next door, it's definitely an...
