Must stay here while in Kyoto!

Staying at Machiya Fukune was an amazing experience! Everything we needed was available, everyone was friendly and helpful, and the relaxation of being in a home as opposed to a hotel room is unmatched. We particularly loved the two bathtubs in our Machiya, so as to have the option of relaxing in a secluded outdoor environment or indoor one. I would highly recommend staying here and would definitely stay again next time I visit Kyoto!

Romantic, private and perfect

Stayed here for a nice romantic stay in Kyoto. Checking in you’ll be greeted with a friendly staff that will provide you with a tea ceremony as well as a tour of the facility. The location is quiet, quaint and peaceful. It’s relatively close from the main Karasume Oike street where it’s on the other side of the busy streets/shops. There are nice izakaya and private dinner spots to walk by to. And there’s a luggage transport that’s right around the corner

The cultural experience of staying in a machiya was fantastic. The staff was so friendly and performed tea making with sweets. Wish we could have stayed longer. The location was within 20-25 min walking distance to all the events and locations we wanted to go to.

Nice place, great location

Great location, central to everything, good condition of town house, not sure what the spare room was used for though as it had one instrument in and that was it. Bathing facilities were nice but there were a few mosquitos which put a small dampner on it (though the air con was great).

A machiya experience is a must when you visit Kyoto. Machiya Fukune perfectly balances a traditional home with modern conveniences. It was such a beautiful and indescribable experience, I can only urge others to try it for themselves.

A Serene Retreat in Kyoto My stay at Kyoto Machiya Fukune was a serene and unforgettable experience. The traditional Japanese townhouse exuded charm and tranquility. Arisa and David warm hospitality and attention to detail were exceptional. The ofuro, traditional soaking tub, was pure bliss. The location was perfect for exploring Kyoto's cultural treasures. The amenities provided were impeccable. I highly recommend Kyoto Machiya Fukune for a relaxing and memorable stay in Kyoto.
