The holiday home is in a very quiet yet central location, not far from Philosopher's Path and the Gion district. It's a bit cramped, but well-equipped, and the manager is very friendly.

Uan Kyoto is a lovely place in an excellent location in Kyoto. Satoru made checking in and out a breeze. We ate three times at recommended restaurants and each time was a hit. I highly recommend staying here.

What an amazing place to stay. Excellent location and the walk to the city center is lovely as you pass the canals. Close to some very lovely temples on the east side of the city. A short little walk to the convenient stores and some restaurants. Laundry was great to have for a quick refresh of our clothes. My two kids and I only stayed a couple of nights, but having this calm, cool (thankful for the air conditioning), and immaculately clean place to rest and relax, was the best. The host was so very friendly and welcoming. We would stay again for sure.

Brilliant little house in a great part of Kyoto. Great that the owner met us on site and help during the week. Great to have a kitchen as well as some brilliant restaurants near by… can’t recommend it more highly.

Host was welcoming, greeted us when we arrived, the place itself was very clean, comfortable and had everything you could need for a stay. Walkable to the main areas of Kyoto but also far enough for some respite from the busy area

The place was exquisite. So beautiful, peaceful, clean and comfortable. The bath was Japanese style and nice and hot. It was in a gorgeous area, away from crowds but easy to get to temples by bus or walking. The host was so helpful and even went to get an adaptor for our laptop late at night. Can’t say enough good things. Hope to come back again with our family. Thank you so much
