Gion Kyuraku - ¡Lujo tradicional en Machiya en el área de Gion / Kiyomizu! - Wi-Fi gratis

Gion Kyuraku fue originalmente la Casa del Maestro del Té, que fue completamente renovada y convertida en un alquiler de vacaciones.

Para actualizar nuestro jardín, nos sentimos muy afortunados de haber conocido al Sr. Sano, el arquitecto paisajista, diseñará nuestro jardín en Gion-Kyuraku. señor. Sano fue seleccionado como uno de los 100 mejores jardineros para el libro llamado "Contemporary Japanese Gardens 100 Gardens by 100 Japanese Landscape Architects", y el libro de fotos se publicó en diciembre de 2014. Nos gustaría expresar nuestra gratitud al Sr. Sano por seleccionar nuestro jardín para el libro.

Gion Kyuraku, Kyo-Machiya de casi un siglo de antigüedad, que alguna vez fue una residencia de maestros de té, ubicada en el distrito histórico de Kioto, Gion / Kiyomizu. Se ha restaurado a su esplendor original, junto con las comodidades modernas, las comodidades contemporáneas, la consideración del medio ambiente, junto con el entretenimiento de última generación y la infraestructura de comunicación.

Exquisite Machiya - Gion Kyuraku

We recently returned from an exquisite 3 weeks in Gion Kyuraku. Our entire experience from booking to checking out was seamless. Our hosts were responsive and delightful. The Machiya was lovely; authentically appointed including features to ensure a safe stay. It even had a 2nd floor balcony to enjoy sunsets. The location to a market, restaurants, shopping, temples can’t be beat and we can’t wait to return!

Wonderful Gion

From the planning stages to the final farewell Rieko has been so helpful. Finding the house was made easy with the detailed instructions both english & japanese. The house was within easy walking distance to transport,local food stores and very big array of eateries. It was very clean, every thing we needed was there. It was a lovely quiet neighbourhood and the residents where friendly. We highly reconmend Gion Kyuraku Peta, Phil and Vanessa from Hobart,Tasmania, Australia

Lovely machiya for a comfortable, traditional stay.

We went as a group of six. Two parents and four twenty somethings. They took over the futons upstairs and we were downstairs. It was a fabulous trip for all of us to visit Kyoto and stay in such a traditional setting. It added a lot to our trip to not be in a hotel. Very nice neighborhood to see the sights and walk around.

Traditional living with modern conveniences!

The machiya is really well located and well appointed. We enjoyed the nearby shops and cafes, as well as the Gion atmosphere and temples/attractions. Inside, the house had good WiFi, heaters and washer/dryer. The bedrooms have tatami mats and futons with cozy comforters. The bathroom has lots of hot water and good shower pressure...and it was great to have each loo in a separate room. The house worked well for 2 adults and 1 kid, who had a futon laid out in the office downstairs. We slept upstairs in the larger main room. There is another room upstairs, separated by a sliding door. The house is SUPER clean and uncluttered, although there are pieces of art etc around but everything is simple and intentionally placed. The hosts are super responsive both before we arrived and during our 4 night stay. We recommend this home!

Beautiful Machiya!

We have stayed at Gion Kyuraku on two different occasions. It never disappoints. The location, very near Kiyomizudera, provides easy access to major sites in Kyoto. The set up of the machiya is comforable and provides great Japanese charm. And Thomas and Rieko are amazing hosts. We will stay here again.

Authentic and Wonderfully Maintained

This property is in excellent condition and located just minutes away (by walking) from the Gion district and Kiyomizu-dera - as well as hundreds of restaurants and sites along the Kamo River. If you can walk 20-30 minutes, you can cover tremendous amounts- and the rest are simple cab/bus rides away. There are two bedrooms upstairs and one downstairs along with a living room and dining area. There is a modern kitchen that provides all the support necessary for your stay in Kyoto. The kitchen comes in handy for early risers as the city and its retail outlets/restaurants do not wake up until a bit later in the morning. This is a traditional home, complete with tatami mats, so you will be removing your shoes and experiencing Japanese living style first-hand....we found that to be a wonderful cultural enhancement to our trip and Kyoto experience as well. However, if you just cannot leave the tech world behind, the WiFi works great as well. Rieko and Thomas know the area well and were very helpful in assisting us in our stay - ideal hosts. We would return here without hesitation.

Beautiful home, lovely neighborhood, & convenient!

We visited Kyoto for a very special 16th birthday trip for our daughter. She loves culture and history, and this machiya was absolutely perfect! Our family of 3 stayed there 11 days, and we enjoyed every minute. *Rieko was a gracious and considerate host, quickly answering any questions we had, having the heat on, maps out for us, etc. *The home was labeled so that we were easily able to use appliances and things without worry. *The neighborhood was fantastic, with a market and store within a 1-2 minute walk. We quickly became friendly with the lady who sells baked goods near the market. :) Vending machines are at the corner if you want to try a coffee or soup. Just a few minute walk up the street leads you to a very busy area with shops, kimono rental and more. *Convenience - We had a guide a few days, and we also used a shuttle service, and meeting steps away at the corner was quite easy. You can easily walk to Kenninji Temple, the Gion district, markets, restaurants, Yasaka Shrine, and so many more places. We have shared photos of this lovely home on social media and are already referring people to Rieko. I am so happy we booked her and Thomas' machiya for our very special trip to Kyoto! Thank you so much, and for anyone reading this, please, do not hesitate to stay here. I can't imagine anywhere better, and we look forward to returning one day!

The perfect Machiya

Having stayed in Kyoto several times already (even in other Machiyas) - this was by far the best place we ever had in this beautiful city. The location is perfect with most of the interesting places in Higashiyama and city center at walking distance. The neighbourhood is perfect - quiet but with shops, cafes and good public transport connections. And the Machiya itself is a dream. Room enough for a couple with two kids, all facilities (kitchen, bathroom, washing machine etc.) in good condition, excellent wifi quality, helpful descriptions/advice in English. The quality and tidyness of the house, the tasteful decoration, the nice, little garden and the terrasse on the 2nd floor make it a jewel. Booking, communication and reception were easy. Responses were very friendly and immediate. This was definitely not the last visit for us. Many thanks to Rieko.

FANTASTIC - LOVED IT,

Had a magical 5 nights at this machiya (4 adults). All communication with regard to various questions and our booking was always answers very quickly with detailed, helpful advice. The machiya was everything that we were hoping for - traditional but with all the mod cons! Everything is so tastefully decorated and well thought out. Rieko (and her lovely daughter) came around and met us and answered any and all of our queries. I highly recommend this machiya. The location is also very central. Many thanks Thomas and Rieko - we hope to be able to return to beautiful Kyoto again.

Wonderful stay

My husband and I stayed four nights here and were so thrilled with our accommodations! You could not ask for a better location. The back streets of Gion are only about a 1/2 mile away. There are two grocery stores minutes away (one is on the corner) and a wonderful lady with baked goods at the end of the street also. There are many landmarks nearby that are very walkable. The Machiya is very clean and comfortable. There were directions for using appliances,etc so you never had to guess how to make something work. The apple tv was great. Rieko left maps marked for sightseeing and was helpful with recommending restaurants and even offered to make reservations. If we are ever in Kyoto again we will stay here!

Wonderful Machiya Experience

This vacation rental property exceeded our expectations in every way. The location is perfect and you could not find a more convenient base for exploring beautiful and historic Kyoto. Locating and entering the Machiya was easy with the thorough directions we received from the owners via email several weeks before we arrived. An arrival letter awaited us outlining some useful information and telling us of special events occurring during our six-day stay. We were fortunate enough to be in Kyoto for a nighttime illumination festival with 2,500 beautiful lanterns in the lanes and many illuminated temples and pagodas in the hills just a short walk away. Getting to the other sites on our itinerary was easy from this Machiya. If we had questions, the owners were available to help us via email. They helped us with everything from suggesting soba noodle restaurants nearby to providing us with scheduling information for Kabuki Theater. They could not have been more accommodating and the excellent wi-fi connection at the Machiya helped us stay connected. The Machiya is elegant and comfortable. The kitchen is sleek and modern, with a refrigerator, cooking surface, and microwave, toaster, and coffee pot. You have all you need for kitchenette cooking. We ate breakfast in everyday and kept the refrigerator well stocked with snacks and drinks from the excellent grocery store just down the lane. The washer/dryer in the kitchen was a nice bonus. Because we were two adult couples -actually brother, sister and our spouses- traveling together, it was convenient to have two separate bedrooms, one on each floor. The tatami mats are beautiful and the futons were comfy enough. The downstairs futons were especially plush. The bathroom arrangement, with toilets and bathing room all in separate spaces, worked perfectly for us. We even found time to enjoy the soaking tub. The Machiya has a beautiful small garden and a new deck on the second level. I hope other guests will have more time than we did to enjoy these special spaces. Our sightseeing schedule was full and when we returned to the Machiya it was either dark or raining. We certainly enjoyed our nights staying warm and cozy in this beautiful Machiya!

Acerca de su propietario/a

Propietario/a: Rieko N.

Imagen de perfil del propietario o de la propietaria
Born into a family that has lovingly cared for a traditional Kyoto ryokan for decades, I was immersed in the spirit of hospitality from an early age and naturally came to appreciate its essence.

Wanting to share this warmth in my own way, I opened Gion Kyuraku in 2012, with the support of my family and the wisdom of local artisans.

Nestled near Gion in Kyoto, Gion Kyuraku is a private machiya vacation rental that offers the beauty of a traditional Kyoto home along with the comfort and privacy of a personal retreat. Unlike a ryokan, our space allows guests to experience Kyoto at their own pace, feeling as if they are living here, even if just for a little while.

For my family and me, preserving Kyoto’s rich history while welcoming guests with warmth and care is something truly special.

We hope that your time at Gion Kyuraku becomes a cherished part of your journey—one filled with peace, discovery, and beautiful memories of Kyoto that stay with you long after your visit.


Rieko & Family

Por qué escogió este alojamiento

Kyoto has played the role of the capital of Japan for a thousand years since the capital was relocated to Kyoto in 794. It is no exaggeration to say that the "Japanese culture" we imagine was nurtured here in Kyoto over a long period of time. In Kiyomizu and Gion area, where Gion Kyuraku is located, you can enjoy so-called "Old Kyoto" which includes historic sites, old machiyas, temples, and shrines. At the same time, there are many restaurants and cafes where you can enjoy traditional taste, and shops that you can find various traditional crafts. Although Gion Kyuraku is located in such a golden area, many essential facilities for daily life are close by such as banks, supermarkets, convenience stores. Enjoy experiencing "living in Kyoto" at Gion Kyuraku.

Qué hace que este alojamiento sea especial

The uniqueness of Kyoto is not only found in historic sites, temples, and shrines, but also in the corners and alleys of the city where people live. Gion Kyuraku which was once the residence of a Japanese tea ceremony master, has been renovated beautifully. While respecting the historic essence of Gion Kyuraku, it is equipped with facilities that are indispensable for modern life, such as internet access, air conditioning, and so on. Gion Kyuraku invites the world travelers, families, and friends that want to experience a Traditional Kyoto Living.
