Welcome to a genuine traditional geisha house near the Golden Pavilion

This house is located in a geisha district called Kamishichiken.
This house was formerly used for teaching the shamisen to geisha.
There are two tatami rooms on the second floor. Up to six people can stay there.
The first floor includes a living room as well as a kitchenette and a bathroom.
In the living room, one can enjoy the changing seasons through an attached garden.
The house also features nightlife within easy walking distance; there are a number of traditional Japanese restaurants and bars in the area.
It is also within walking distance from the Golden Pavilion, and only thirty minutes from the Arashiyama area.
Also close by, Kitano-Tenmangu Shrine features a famous open air market once a month.
Kyoto is home to hundreds of historical sites, including seventeen UNESCO World Heritage Sites. In particular, Kyoto is the perfect destination for anyone with an interest in Buddhism or Shinto.
Kyoto is also a very safe city.
I hope you will enjoy all that Kyoto has to offer.
I look forward to hearing from you.

  • This home (Roco Roji) was really amazing. The traditional style of it really set the tone for our trip in Kyoto. The pictures just can't do it justice; it truly looks like a movies set. My husband and I stayed for 4 nights in Sept 2009. We found the buses very easy to navigate and many restaurants within walking distance. Kazuya and the owner were both so pleasant and incredibly helpful. They were so wonderful to us.

  • We enjoyed our stay in this traditional Japanese townhouse. My two children loved it, including sitting and sleeping Japanese style on the tatami mat floors, and the townhouse is on a historical alley with lots of character. We walked to the Golden Pavilion and Ryoanji from here with children ages ten and eight, so it is certainly walkable. We took buses to other parts of Kyoto or walked to the subway station (that is a longer walk but you can take the bus).
