Lovely 100-year old house repurposed as guest house. Modern additions such as air con and shower room added around original building with wooden sliding doors and futon beds. Lovely, helpful owners met us and showed us everything - thank you!

I'm really glad I had the chance to stay at the 100 year old Guesthouse Hana Nishijin—it's a beautiful and charming place that left a great impression, even though I only stayed for one night. The decor is lovely, with traditional touches that reflect the rich history of the area. The garden is particularly beautiful and adds to the peaceful, authentic atmosphere. The location is excellent—close to major Kyoto attractions and very convenient for our day trip. Despite its central spot, it felt quiet and relaxing, offering a nice retreat. The traditional tatami mats and bedding were surprisingly comfortable—far more than I expected. It’s clear a lot of thought has gone into preserving an authentic experience while ensuring guest comfort. That said, I wouldn't recommend it for a full 7-day stay. While it's perfect for a night or two, the setup may not be ideal for a longer visit, depending on your needs. Highly recommend this guesthouse for a short stay to get a taste of traditional Kyoto hospitality!

Very friendly owners and staff. Clean, comfortable property, and it was a great experience staying in an old house. Highly recommend, as long as you are ok with a shared bath.

La casa era splendida, in pieno stile giapponese, i letti molto comodi (erano i classici futon giapponesi per terra). La host mitica, ci ha sempre accolto con molto calore, preparato il thè matcha, dato consiglio dove mangiare e venduto dei kimono meravigliosi con prezzi di riguardo. La consiglieró a chiunque si trovi a Kyoto e spero di tornarci un giorno. Ah dimenticavo, al checkout ci hanno anche accompagnati con la macchina in stazione!

初めてゲストハウスに泊まるので心配でしたが、オーナーご夫妻がとても親切で船岡温泉や駅まで送っていただいたり、観光情報、おいしいお店などの情報もたくさん教えてくれました。 お宿も綺麗に改装されていて快適でした。 北野天満宮や金閣寺、晴明神社も歩いていける距離でした。

很棒的民宿

民宿內基本設施齊全且乾淨整潔，老闆娘熱情好客又細心體貼，巴士班次密集，選擇性多，交通往來十分便捷。唯一的缺點是老木造房子隔音較差，不適合睡覺怕吵的人。

ホテルでは味わえないユニークな体験

上七軒、北野天満宮にほど近い長屋を改造した民宿に近い施設です。せっかくの京都旅行なのに画一的なホテルでは物足りない方にはよい選択と思います。管理人は限られた時間しかいませんので、はやめのチェックインが必要となります。また、海外からの予約ができることもあり海外からの旅行者の利用も多いようなので、英語ができると他のお客様とのコミュニケーションがスムーズです。市内中心部からは少し距離があるのでどのように足を確保するのかは検討した方がよいかもしれません。

Skønt, rent og tradtioneltjapansk guesthouse

Et virkelig dejligt ophold i et meget traditionelt japansk guesthouse med meget søde værter. Stort og rent værelse med plads til hele familien på fem personer, gode bade- og køkkenfaciliteter. Fint og hyggeligt indrettet. Man blev budt og følte sig meget velkommen. Kan varmt anbefales, hvis man ønsker at opleve et traditionelt Japansk guesthouse med futonmadrasser på gulvet. Vi kommer gerne tilbage ...

昔懐かし京都町家の佇まいで国際交流も～～!

京都町家のゲストハウスなので3組の宿泊客で満室。部屋以外は全て共同なので人とのふれあいに抵抗無ければ却って過ごしやすく、自分の姿勢でプライベートは守れると思う。 お話好きなオーナーさんの気配りがアチコチに感じられ心地良い。 掃除が行き届いていて気持ち良く過ごせます。
