Enter into this machiya townhouse to be greeted by soft light, rich woodwork details, and a warm and inviting atmosphere.
The entrance features a tranquil study, which is the perfect place to enjoy a book, or ready for the day.

On the 2F is Japanese-style and relaxing Western-style bedroom, with tea room-inspired doorways and delicate 'washi' paper windows. Retreat to a private and intimate space during your time in Kyoto.
