Our stay was amazing!! The townhouse is very beautiful. It had updated appliances and amenities, but still had a very traditional feel. The garden was so peaceful!! It was pretty close to the Omiya train station and very close to bus stops, which made it a great base for our adventuring.

Response from VrboOwner on 20 Mar, 2026
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I’m truly delighted to hear that you enjoyed the unique balance of traditional machiya charm and modern comfort at Shiori. It’s especially lovely to know that you found the garden peaceful — it is designed to offer a quiet moment of calm after a day of exploring Kyoto. I’m also glad the location made it easy for you to experience the city comfortably. Creating a stay that feels both authentic and effortless is something I value deeply, so your kind words mean a great deal. Thank you again for choosing Shiori. You would be most welcome back anytime — it would be my pleasure to host you again on your next visit to Kyoto.
