Beautiful

A beautiful traditional house located in a lovely neighbourhood. It is very close to Sanjo-dori, Nijo-jo castle & Shibori museum. I found it very easy to get to Nishiki market as well as Nishijin textile centre from here. Even getting to Arashiyama was easy (35min approx). The house itself is charming. I got to stay in a ground floor room at the back of the house, which looked exactly as in the photos. It also had a small window on a floor level (which was interesting) looking into the inside garden. I found it very comfortable to sleep in futon style bed, which you have to make everyday yourself - the staff can show you on the first day if you like. The communal area is spotless as there is always a member of staff during the day to look after the house.

New experience

Enjoyed the experience. Sleeping on the floor was quite comfortable.

I really loved this experience of staying in a traditional house. I especially loved the pillow, it moulded to my body and was very comfortable. It was lovely and the staff were wonderful. I will stay again should I come to kyoto in the future

Very good house staffs ;) A 130-year-old traditional Japanese house with good refurbishment not far from the subway and Family Mart. It would be nice if there is an isolated toilet for each room.

Nice stay, Good Access to Subway

It was a nice stay, with a traditional bed set up on the floor. We were happy it was so close to the subway, and was also very close to Nijo castle. I wouldn't recommend the hotel if you have young children that would have a hard time being quiet because it is easy to hear guests in other room through the paper doors. The beds were a bit hard, and that was my only real complaint.

great ryokan, easy to get to from subway

Basic necessities

There is only one cold shower, and 1 toilette without seating. For boys there is an additional toilette. There are two facets on one stainless steel sink in the main aisle, much like a camping facility The restriction on the check in time (4 p.m. to 9 p.m.) was somehow inconvenient to us. The floor on the main aisle is all broken; all this for $200+ per night? not worth it

Nice Japanese retreatment

We had nice Japanese retreatment at Sanjojuku by sleeping on futon that was comfortable and having green tea. It was our first time to stay in the traditional Japanese house with a great experience. Thanks,

Wonderful experiencing a traditional guesthouse

Very welcoming for my first Japanese experience. Comfortable room and very cosy guesthouse.

Time Trip to Old Japan

Staying at a traditional Kyoto Townhouse was what I had wanted and expected to discover. Gaining knowledge of the history of Kyoto buildings as well as its culture. Indeed exploring around Kyoto including temples and shrines added my fabulous and authentic Japanese experience. I appreciate Sanjojuku to help my researching about Japanese history as my interests.

Traditional and unique experiences

Warm atmosphere, traditional Japanese rooms and quiet accommodation are how I describe Sanjojuku in Kyoto. Sleeping on the futon is what I had never experienced and a helpful staff member made a Japanese bed for me. Next time I will show my mates the place. Thanks

Good for a once-in-a-lifetime experience

This was not my best choice! It is not suitable for a family, especially with young children. The place is too old, the walls are, literally, paper-thin, there is no TV and the toilet and shower room are both in the corridor on a shared basis. Hotels.com says "Children (6 years old and younger) not allowed" I did not see this when reserving. The owner knew our son was 6, but did not write to tell us of this rule. The room was not cheap for what is, or isn't, on offer, yet we were still asked to pay 100yen per person for use of a small towel. The torch for visiting the toilet during the night shone for 5 minutes before the battery gave out. The wi-fi did not connect either due to the weakness of the signal. The description on Hotels.com says that a "Cash deposit required" at check in. This is very misleading. This guesthouse does not accept credit cards and you must pay the whole amount in cash before checking in. There is no bath and there is no breakfast! Why did we stay there? My mistake. I looked at the photos and fell for them. It is a beautiful building, very representative of its era and is good for a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Beautiful, tranquil room in a convenient location

We stayed in a room with its own miniature Japanese garden and loved the vibe. Really unique experience staying in a Japanese style room. Of course, that means more narrow spaces, sleeping on shikibuton (but there are foam pads provided for layering under and this wasn't a problem even for someone as sensitive to hard beds as me), limited sound isolation, and shared bathroom outside of the sleeping room. However, if you're okay with something a bit different, this can be a memorable and pleasant stay. Nijo castle (and subway station) is two blocks away and several art exhibition places are nearby. There's a decent and affordable noodle / curry eatery on the corner and several convenience stores.

本物の町屋体感できました

おすすめ宿です。

個人でやられているようなので、チェックイン前に必ず宿の方に直接、チェックインの日時を伝えておいた方がスムーズだと思います。テレビがないのでお部屋での楽しめる物を何か用意されるといいと思います。 築100年以上の町屋に泊まれる機会などなかなかないですし、宿の方がとにかく親切な良い方です。掃除も行き届いていて清潔感があり、かなりおすすめです。

古い建物の感じは残しつつも水回りはどこも綺麗で快適に過ごすことができた。

Scary,, traditional japan guest house

무서웠어요.. 씻으러갈때너무무서워서 친구랑 같이갔어요. 씻으러갈때 천장보지마세요

Une place avec de l'âme... Mon conjoint et moi avons adoré!

Is a whole unique and charming experience

Great attention! The place is really old traditional kyoto style. For those who looks forward to an special stay, this would be a wonderful experience. Very next to Šanjo market and the train station. Also posible to rent a bike provided by the hosts.

moldy and small

the room was way too small for four people. In bad condition. We left after one night, the owners were not open for any discussion or to give a refund. There are a lot of better places in Kyoto.

Super machiya près du château de Nijô

Maison typique Kyoto machiya, ambiance historique, je vous recommande !

一個很好的傳統日式住宿體驗

一直很想嘗試傳統日本住宿，這家住宿價錢相宜合理，店主是說英文的，溝通容易，親切友善，給到的資料也很詳細充足。這裡跟Family Mart很近，晚上買東西回來很方便。跟JR二條城站和京阪鐵路二條城前站都很近。這裡比起其他酒店更能體會傳統日式居住環境，雖然設施比較簡樸，但可以讓城市人暫時脫離繁忙的生活，還可以學到日式床墊的整理方法。早上去洗手間還可以看到貓咪，覺得好開心~ 值得推薦~

It was good. but toilet is uncomfortable. and from 11:00 to 16:00, they never open. so you can't leave your luggage at that time. Host was so kind and room condition is clean. That's nice.

여름에 게다는 괜찮지만 겨울에 게다는 시끄럽네요

겨울여행이라 난방기구에 대한 배려가 부족했습니다 일본특유의 다다미방이라 추웠고 난방기구를 켜도 방안공기는 따뜻했지만 이불 속 난방에 대한 센스가 좀 부족했습니다 유탄포와 같은 센스가 있었으면 다다미방에서의 추억은 남달랐을거 같네요

괜찮음

130년쯤된 집임 그러나 화장실,샤워시설은 신식임 /일본식 전통가옥체험

古き良き日本。

先日、母と3泊させていただきました。せっかくの京都観光なので今回は昔の日本を感じたくこちらの宿を選択させていただきました。 私はとても昔の日本屋敷を感じ楽しかったです。又、空港へのリムジンなどいろいろ調べてくれありがとうございました！ 次回は旦那と又利用したいと思います。ありがとうございました！(^^♪

古色古香很有感覺

Unique experience in Kyoto

The owner is able to communicate with English, friendly and helpful. I am staying at ground floor, the room is just enough for 3 people, clean and have a nice little garden outside. The beddings are traditional Japanese style futon, a chance to learn how to make your bed haha! The toilets and shower room are all separated. One Urinal, one Japanese style toilet and one western style toilet. The shower room have hot water but you have to turn the heater on yourself. Metro and bus stop nearby, and the Nijo Castle is just 5 mins walk. If you walk to here from Hankyu Omiya, you will probably find a street with supermarket, restaurants and small shops.

ホテルとまた違った経験が出来た。静かな雰囲気で過ごした。テレビが無く不便だがそれも良い経験になった。

good!

可以體驗傳統木屋的旅館 隔音不好,介意廁所浴室在外面的不建議入住 老闆娘很可愛!解說很詳細!

완벽한 전통 가옥!

일본, 그리고 교토에 왔다면 꼭 한번 여기서 묵어보길 추천해요~ 그렇지만 밤에는 조금 무서운 느낌이 있어요.. 조명도 어둡고 나무 바닥 이라서 끼익끼익 거리기도 했지요! 전통가옥이지만 화장실이나 욕실은 현대식이라 불편하지않아요! 너무 좋았어요~:)

沒有電視, 可以早點訓. 日式床好好訓, 枕頭使人好舒服, 好想要一個. 要細聲講話, 無隔音.

沒有電視, 可以早點訓. 日式床好好訓, 枕頭使人好舒服, 好想要一個. 要細聲講話, 無隔音. 在二條城前站出好近, 又可以去二條城.

교통이 편리한 숙소. 꽤 좋은 숙소.

방도 깔끔하고 가격대비 매우 좋음. 주인이 과잉친절함. 건물이 노후되 방음이 아쉽고, 2층 올라가는 계단이 매우 불편함.

伝統的で素晴らしいタイムスリップの滞在

京都町家のくぐり戸と呼ばれる入口を入るときからスタッフの温かい歓迎に始まり、まるで自分の家のような気分にさせてくれました。かつて人が住んでいたこの宿でその時に帰って生活している感じがしました。何か自分が忘れてしまった感覚を取り戻した気がします。ただ泊まるだけでなく、この宿にしばらく住んでいる気がしました。スタッフの親切で丁寧なご案内のおかげで、快適に過ごすことができました。今度は、私の外国人の友人と一緒に文化紹介がてら宿泊してみたいです。本当にありがとうございました。

一間有高度文化的旅舍，體驗日本舊文化非常值得，老闆的解說非常清楚，房間睡起來非常舒服！值得推薦！

外人向き

久しぶりに日本に帰ってきて、日本情緒を楽しみたいと思ってこういう形式のお宿を選んでみました。外国人むけのホテルのせいか、普段使っている様式とは全く異なるので少々戸惑いました。日本がだいすきで、不便をいとわぬ外国人には良いかもしれません。

町家の雰囲気が味わえます。 バスタオルの臭いが気になり残念でした。 冬はシャワー室の使用はかなり寒そうですが、近くに銭湯があるのがいいです。

Traditionnel, mais pas de charme ...

Quartier isolé, loin du centre (Gion) même si très proche de Nijo Castle. Pas de bain commun, mais une salle de douche à partager entre tous les hôtes (lavabo dans l'entrée). Pas de petit déjeuner proposé, et rien pour le prendre dans les alentours proches. Globalement cher pour la prestation.

Encantador

Un sitio con mucho encanto.

Maison traditionnelle à Tokyo accueil parfait

Evidemment ceux qui recherchent un hotel moderne seront déçus. La maison est typiquement japonaise, bas de plafond, sans isolation sonore, des futons très bien, des chambres pouvant accueillir maximum 4 personnes très propre, avec tous les équipements nécessaires partagés entre les 4 chambres, des détails raffinés une équipe extrêmement serviable et accueillante, une situation parfaite.. A recommander

古色古香的旅館

一看到大門還沒什麼感覺，但是進門後有種時間倒流的感覺！暖橘色的燈光加上舊日式建築整讓人想穿和服在裡面走來走去！！！我住二樓的和室，上二樓的樓梯有一點陡，所以上下樓要小心。

很有味道的一間旅館!

除了房子真的太過老舊了點 但町家本來就都是老房子 房間容易漏風近來 冬天蠻冷的 但房間都有暖氣還可以接受 如果受不了上廁所需要吹到冷風的話 還是請找別間巴!

average

good experience of Japanese style guesthouse but not for luxuries stay, location is a bit far away from train but close to subway. also have a few convenience stores around it. not recommend for travelers carry lots of baggages.

일본식숙소에서의 체험도 좋지만 아무래도 불편

다다미방이 이층 이었어서 아래층에 전해질 소음이 무척 신경쓰였습니다. 일본 전통적인 집에 자보고 싶어서 예약했는데 가족 모두가 샤워나 화장실 부분에서 숙박 후 만족스러워 하지 않았습니다. 이불은 푹신하고 청결하였으며, 안내해주는 여직원은 친절하였지만, 점심 무렵에는 데스크 담당자가 없어서 불편하였습니다

天氣比較冷，在走廊上會覺得冷，洗臉和洗澡也很冷

普普通通的民宿

交通是方便，但我覺得整體只是為了商業行為所做的民宿，或許是我要求高了點，在我住過的日式古式建築裡，缺乏了庭院的感覺實在不好，更何況連一點綠意都沒有。而且後半部只用竹簾圍起來夜裡前往廁所感覺很可怕。

町家の佇まい

非常によかったです。 古い京都の町家の佇まいを味わいたい方にはおすすめです。 土間に古井戸の跡（？）があったり、土間を通って上がりかまちで履物をぬいで部屋に入るつくりなども雰囲気です。照明やちょっとした小物にもこだわりを感じます。家族で離れに８泊しましたが、部屋の下部にある小窓から見える中庭は、特に夜は灯篭の明かりでとてもきれいです。中庭をはさんだ反対側の部屋はこの中庭に面して縁側がついていました。 キッチンも自由に使えるので、長期で泊まるには便利でした。 スタッフも親切です。
