Vacation Homes in Shiga Prefecture

The layout and the atmosphere inside the hotel was phenomenal. Excellent customer service. Keith and Amy went above and beyond and really made us feel welcome. They tried to accomodate our different schedule as well when they didn't have to and really took the time to speak with us. They added a great quality to the stay.

Everything was very good.

This was a perfect place to experience Japan. It had traditional Japanese accomodations and food but also with many high tech conveniences. The staff was very helpful in getting us taxis to easily visit locations like the imperial palace or the Bamboo Forest. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wishes to have a great experience in Kyoto.

The house had a nice Japanese ambience and was well maintained

Absolutely amazing oasis in the heart of crowded Kiyomizu. Beautiful, tranquil, clean guest house with tons of space.

So authentic! Easy to get around wialking, taxi. Great access to station in Kyoto and amazing breakfast at the Wanderer and Scene Factory Coffee close by! Get the Hot Chocolate at scene - it's to die for!!

The selling point of this property is the sauna and outdoor baths. We didn’t end up using the sauna (it was 90 degrees outside) so we simply enjoyed the two baths. It was nice to do a load of laundry in the middle of our trip and while we only made tea, the kitchen was convenient and useful for folks staying longer. It’s a short walk to the station and close to many things. The house is very charming and would be perfect for a family.

The property was absolutely beautiful and very spacious for our family of four. The hot bath was a treat, especially since I have a lot of tattoos and don't want to offend locals in an onsen. (I know there are tattoo-friendly onsens, but I couldn't find any in the area we were staying.) The breakfast was a delicious spread of vegan cuisine. The washer/dryer was essential for our visit. Five stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

An absolute gem in Kyoto! We had a perfect stay here. The apartment is beautifully curated with a modern traditional Japanese aesthetic. It was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. The indoor garden in the shower area was a spectacular touch. The location is unbeatable—walking distance to Gion and Nishiki Market, surrounded by fantastic dining options, and close to public transport (metro and buses). Note: The stairs are a bit steep, so just watch your step. Excellent communication...

Quite and calm stay

Great traditional Japanese home with modern conveniences. Very quiet and not far to many sights.

Our stay at Ieno house was such a great experience. The staff was very polite and kind to explain about amenities and also there is an English manual on how to operate all the electronics. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. I would highly recommend this place.

Owner was responsive even before we showed up. Told us how to get there. Very flexible with check-in time. Waited for us at the property. Check-in was easy and informal. The place was better than the internet pictures. It's basically a fully functional home. Two stories, 2 BR, 1.5 BA, open kitchen with living room. Next door to a family mart (currently renovating, but a 7/11 is 2 min away) 1 min walk to Nijojo-mae subway station. 2 min from a local shopping strip(3 brothers bakery opens...

My husband and I are 23F and 24M from the States. We loved our stay here! Beds were very comfortable, foot bath was amazing, and everything was very clean and nice. It was great having a washing machine, dishes, and many toiletries that most places don’t offer. Also, the host held our luggage after checkout since there was not anyone checking in that evening I assume, which was very nice! Not a big issue, but one thing I would recommend is adding another mirror. Maybe a full length one or one...

We wanted to stay in a ryokan for an authentic japanese stay and after a lot of deliberation we picked this one. It was very clean and nicely organized. The only hassle was to go to a central location to register and get the keys which was a couple of blocks but then Rinn had a drop off service to drop us and also pickup our luggage from another hotel. Instructions on how to use stuff in the ryokan were clear and they were available for any help that you might need. Too bad we only stayed here...

The staff was amazing. Extremely kind and informative. The property itself was clean, comfortable and convenient for it’s location. Couldn’t of asked for a better place to stay.

This traditional Japanese home was exactly how we envisioned it. It was clean, the floors were heated, an unexpected surprise. Very clean and comfortable. Right in the heart of Gion, so many restaurants and things to see and do. Great for couples or families, highly recommended it!
