    The staff are so kind. This location is central to so many places in Kyoto, without being too touristy. Compared to other guesthouses, this place is inexpensive but still feel authentic and beautiful.

TSUKITO is a 100 years old townhouse that has a history of its own .Great place to experience Kyoto from within. Situated in historical part of Kyoto (Ginkakuji, Heian Shrine, Kiyomizu temple). 4 Japanese style rooms. Easy access from Kyoto station. Lots or restaurants and a Japanese public bath near by.
The guesthouse is near from Heian Jingu Shrine, and very convenient place for sightseeing. Besides, a laundry service, a drug store, or convenience store is walk-in distance.
