We had a wonderful stay. The property is very well appointed, comfortable and exceptionally clean. The location is also fabulous.

Very clean and nicely done. Stashed away in a quiet alley amidst bustling roads/tourist hotspots. Minutes from key attractions like Kiyomizu-dera and Yasaka shrine. Could have stayed a night more. Too short a trip! Host natsuki is great and conversant in English! Very helpful in providing details about the neighborhood and what to do!

We chose Kyomachiya Suite Rikyu because it‘s the perfect location for our wedding ceremony and wedding reception venues. Really love the concept and feels very homey. The stay adds up as part of sweetest memories we had during our wedding day. To top it off, was really sweet of the hosts (T & N) for their warm welcome and wedding gift for us!

We booked this accommodation for 4 nights and it was absolutely incredible. What a great feeling to live as a local in a traditional japanese house! Natsuki warmly welcomed us with a big smile and a lot of enthusiasm. She was really nice. We also appreciated having a large genkan, a spacious tatami area and a perfect typical bathroom (with lovely view to the small garden!) to relax after long walking days. なつきさん、ありがとうございました。ではまた。 Kevin & Anaïs

We were in contact with the owner before traveling and she was very responsive and helpful. The location is superb and we were able to experience some of the local atmosphere of life in Kyoto. Highly recommend staying here.

The well-maintained kyomachiya Rikyu is located in a convenient place in Higashiyama which offers walking-distance experience to most of places of interests in the area. The hostess Natsuki san is more than a nice person who is willing to assist and accommodate everything just to ensure the guest a wonderful stay! She is also a local expert so that don't hesitate to ask any question if needed. The place keeps traditional look and feel while providing clean and warm vibe at the some time. Definitely a must-stay accommodation in Kyoto!

Our thoughtful and kind host considered everything, and even included recommendations of the best places to shop at, attractions to visit, and restaurants to dine at.

The property is located smack in the middle of Gion and Kiyomizu-dera, and surrounded by shops and supermarkets. You can buy groceries from the nearby supermarket and cook your own meals. It is a modern house equipped with a washing machine, cooker, fridge, nespresso machine, warm towels, electrical stove, kettle and a little garden. The host, Natsuki, was extremely thoughtful in providing us a list of possible places to visit nearby. She also waited for us late into the night as we arrived at the property quite late.

The hostess (Natsuki) was very friendly and helpful. She prepared an itinerary for us and helped with taxi bookings. The property is very clean and in a good location. There is a lovely small garden, a tub for soaking in, and a well equiped kitchen. Our kids loved staying in the upstairs room.
