逢譚-atan-

A private rental inn "Atan" quietly stands on the banks of the Gojo Takase River This space, where natural materials such as cedar, earth, and Japanese paper breathe quietly, blends into the city of Kyoto, but the flow of time feels gentle. There is a small courtyard through the bathroom window. Just by soaking in the hot water and letting yourself go with the view of the changing seasons, your mind will melt away. Space, quiet, and a little bit of luxury. This is a place for those who want to enjoy time doing nothing rather than packing their schedule while traveling. Wake up in the morning to the soft light through the sliding doors, and end the day quietly at night while watching the shadows fall on the garden. The time here is memorable not only for what you see, but also for the temperature of the air, the feel of the soles of your feet, and the quietness of the sounds. It's nice to talk to someone, or to spend time alone. I hope this place is a place where you can take a little distance from your daily life and check your own outline. The name "Ootan" we wanted to create an inn where you can encounter landscapes, air, people, words, and stories you have never encountered before. A little story will surely be born in this space where you spend your time.

[Kyomachiya Rental] 115-year-old Kyomachiya · Takasegawa Shichijo

Kyomachiya Private Rental "Takasegawa Shichijo" is an accommodation facility that has been fully renovated from a 115-year-old kyomachiya. The kyomachiya, which forms the beautiful scenery of Kyoto, has been redesigned as a building with high airtightness and thermal insulation performance, while retaining the original structure, so that you can enjoy a comfortable stay during Kyoto's unique hot and humid summers and harshly cold winters. From the Japanese-style room on the first floor, you can see the tsubo garden, which is designed to resemble a "roji" (*the garden that leads to the tea room). There is also a sofa in the hallway where you can relax and enjoy the view of the tsubo garden. In the evening, you can spend a relaxing time watching the illuminated tsubo garden. There are two bedrooms on the second floor: a Japanese-style room with two single beds and a Western-style room with two single beds. If there are 5 or more guests, we will set up a futon in the Japanese-style room on the ground floor for you to use as a bedroom. The kitchen is equipped with cooking utensils and tableware so you can prepare simple meals.

5 minutes walk from Kiyomizu Gojo Station! Open-air bath included! Limited to one group per day

Obune no Ie, a private rental inn surrounded by the atmosphere of Higashiyama, near the Kamogawa River in Kyoto. The interior is decorated with Kurotani Japanese paper, a Kyoto Prefecture designated intangible cultural asset. Japanese paper artist Hatanowa Wataru has combined traditional techniques with modern sensibilities to project soft light and shadows on the walls, sliding doors, and furnishings. The space wrapped in Japanese paper calms the mind and gives you the comfort of being rocked and drifting in a small boat. One of the attractions is the open-air bath integrated with the courtyard garden. Major tourist destinations such as Gion and Kiyomizu-dera Temple are within walking distance, and Keninji Temple and Rokuharamitsu-ji Temple are also nearby, so you can fully enjoy walking around Kyoto. It is about a 15-minute drive from Kyoto Station and has good access. A space where you can freely spend time in the hustle and bustle of the city or in silence. "Obune no Ie" is a boat-like inn that gently receives the sensibilities of travelers and weaves a special stay in Kyoto.

Machiya Stay in Gojo, Near Gion and Kyoto Sta.

The house was an Ochaya (literally "tea house")before and we renovated it, which is an establishment where patrons are entertained by geisha. We kept the original structure and make it much more modern and comfortable. The river in front of the house is the must-see in Kyoto changing from cherry bloom to maples. The best location near Gojo bridge and Kiyomizuーgojo sta. can make it very convenient to all the famous spots.
