Location of hotel in city of historical sites.
Spent four days at Gagakuan, satisfied, although unexpected cold weather even in spring. Late sakura blooming, still managed to view some. Did not follow tour, rather venture on our own. Visited places of interest but unable to cover all due to insufficient time, maybe next time would to come again.

Summer in Kyoto
Our family of four (two kids aged 11 and 15) enjoyed a fantastic week at Gagakuan. Our host Saki was very responsive from the initial reservation until we departed. She even dropped off a delicious birthday cake for my daughter who celebrated her birthday the day before we arrived. This is not a traditional hotel room but a traditional Japanese house in a very nice neighbourhood. The house itself is very well equipped and a fantastic way to experience living in a traditional family home. Although more than 100 years old and very traditional, it has been equipped with a number of modern touches that enhance the stay. Our two kids were absolutely fascinated with the house and the entire environment. For our purposes, it was ideally situated between Kyoto station and central Kyoto. The Gojo subway stop and the bus stop are both less than a five minute walk from the house. This allows you to easily access the public transportation system to all of the wonderful temples. We also took side trips to Osaka, Nara and a day trip to Hiroshima using our Japan rail passes. Except for a few hot days (typical for Kyoto in the summer), we had a perfect time in Kyoto thanks to our great stay at Gagakaun and the kind generosity of Saki. We hope we get another chance to return to Kyoto and see the things we missed this visit and stay here again.

Great stay.
Great stay. The lady in charge was very nice. The place is not easy to find for first-timer but she kindly picked us up at the train exit. Also gave many advices on traveling. Place is clean and well-equipped.

What a wonderful place!
This stay experience is way beyond our expectation. The house is full of surprise the moment we stepped into it: cozy and comfy, wonderful space, beautifully designed, friendly-arranged in every details. The house owner is very nice and provided information needed before we arrived and during our stay. My family and I just love of all this house and the comfortable and warm aura it offered. Moreover, nice spot, traffic is convenient, quiet and wonderful temperature while sleeping at night. EXCELLENT!!

Experience Kyoto City
It was a fantastic experience staying in Gagakuan. We were welcomed by Ms Mako and she has given very valuable travel advice according weather and transportation. The house has a very relaxing environment, no TV, but provided with relaxing music CD. I had a very relaxing night like spending time in a cafe. The house also provided one bicycle, it is great way to experience the city as well.

heaven in Kyoto
Makko has created the most perfect blend of home, luxury, comfort and style. We want to live there. Every day. Conveniently located with the most serenely tranquil aura. Aftrt a day trekking there is no better space to come home to. We were so gratedul for a cold bottle in the fridge and lovely veggies and cheese and a rainy evening while we were snuggled dreamily.

Perfect for a family holiday!
We stayed at Gagakuan during Kyoto's cherry blossom season, which was brilliant and recommended for all travellers to Japan! Gagakuan is a renovated period style Japanese townhouse, very centrally located to trains (Gojo station), cool areas of Kyoto (Nishiki Market, Gion, Teramachi, supermarket, local restaurants), and very safe. Mako san, the owner, helped make our stay a fabulous one - from before we arrived (maps in Japanese, giving taxi driver directions in Japanese), to making us comfortable in the house, guiding us to local sights and activities, with great communication during our stay. The house has everything you need and so much better than a hotel. We loved the separate living spaces, very comfortable beds, cooking facilities and the deep bath! Taxis to most of the major sights was ridiculously cheap as Gagakuan was in close proximity to everything, and you can flag them down in the street one block away from the house. We had a fantastic time and would definitely stay here again, as well as recommend this place to others.

A small touch of old Japan
Gagakuan is not a hotel, it's the equivalent of a US townhouse, built about 100 years ago. It's a 2 story unit with a full kitchen downstairs and beds upstairs. It was very clean and easy to walk to Nijo Castle and other. Kyoto sights. We really enjoyed it because it was so different from the hotels we stay in when we travel. If you must have a TV and maid service look elsewhere (there is free wifi and a laptop in the home), but this is the perfect place to stay when visiting a city like Kyoto.

Best way to enjoy Kyoto
Our family of 4 completely enjoyed 2 wonderful nights at this cute little Japanese home. The service was excellent and started even before we arrived, with Saki reaching out to us by email to make sure we knew how to find the place and to keep tabs on our arrival. When we arrived Saki explained the use of various features on the home and left us to our privacy. But that didnt stop there as she kept checking in on us by email to make sure we were doing ok. And we did far more than just "OK". Kyoto is a beautiful place to visit and Gagakuan certainly adds to the enjoyment of this fine city. So much so that our kids actually called it "home", albeit temporarily. We would definitely love to go there again.

성실한 서비스
일본의 오래된 주택을 개조하여 만든 숙소인데 집처럼 편하게 지낼수 있었습니다. 필요한것이 다 준비 되어 있어요. 주인은 컨시어지 역할까지 다 잘 해줍니다. 가고 싶은곳의 정보와 절약해서 관광 하는법 효율적인 관광 코스 계획 짜기도 알려주고, ...필요한것이 있으면 바로 바로 전달해주니 든든해요.... 단점은 호텔의 위치 찾기입니다. 택시 기사도 쉬이 찾지 못하는 골목길안에 위치해 있으므로 주변 정보를 잘 알아두고 찾아간다면 도움이 될것입니다.

아름다운 내부공간과 편리한 위치
호텔내부의 아름다움과 편리함이 정말 좋으며 호텔의 위치는 JR교토와 한큐선의 중간에 있어 철도이용에 매우 편리하다. 또한 호텔주면에 니시혼간지 등 문화유적도 도보로 5분안에 위치하고 있어 매우 좋다. 가족과 여행을 한다면 정말 강력이 추천할 숙소이다.

Authentic Japanese style house on quaint alley
Off the beaten path, this house is great for a family of four. It is in a great location for food, access to subway yet quiet. It is an eco-house, with many impressive energy saving details. As well, we arrived late and the the fridge was stocked with food, so we didn't have to go out late at night. It was a truly local experience. We loved it.

Cute, independent living but with support nearby
LOCATION HINTS: Ask the taxi to drop you at Shimogyo Junior High School and find Cafe World a little corner cafe just across the street from the school. From the cafe, you can see a vending machine on the street corner. From the cafe, walk towards the vending machine and turn right at the vending machine, then left down the path at the second powerpole. This path leads to gagakuan. see Google maps streetview.SIGHTSEEING:Walking distance to the temples and cute traditional shops. GAGAKUAN: Saki was wonderful, you feel like you have an invisible concierge if you need any help. The place is lovely, just keep the noise down so as to not disturb the neighbours as the walls are thin.

京都で町屋に泊まる
京都で町屋に泊まれる事になり楽しみにしていました。五条の駅からも近く、静かな路上を入った所にありました。町屋の中はモダンに改装してあり、素敵なキッチンに、可愛いバスルーム、そして広々としたダイニングテーブルで朝食をとるのも楽しかったです。とても快適に過ごすことが出来ました。

Wonderful!
We (husband, mother-in-law and myself) loved our stay at Gagakuan!The proprietor met us as we exited from our cab and extend an extraordinary quality of hospitality during our stay. This accommodation was perfect for several people - one downstairs room, Japanese style with tatami mats/futon and attached toilet. The property has the charm of an old Japanese style townhouse with the sensibility and style, in the kitchen, of a modern/Italian influenced larder -there was olive oil to cook with and very stylish plates/cups and flatware/utensils. We highly enjoyed shopping for food at the Nishiki market and eating "in" for breakfast and dinner, with the mid-day meal out at a local restaurant. We had a quiet, peaceful and entirely delightful stay at this townhouse. I/we highly recommend this accommodation!

Great experience
The hotels in Kyoto generally don't match up to those in Tokyo. Gagakuan is a wonderful alternative: essentially a converted town home with modern amenities. It was an extremely comfortable stay! The service and help provided by the staff was excellent and extremely friendly.

formule idéale pour 4 personnes (famille ou amis)
l'interêt de cette réservation était de vivre quelques jours dans une maison traditionnelle en bois à Kyoto #maison restaurée à l'ancienne#, avec tout le confort d'une maison confortablement équipée. Le personnel était vraiment attentif: Saki san nous a aidé dans nos réservations de restaurants, dans nos recherches de temples à visiter, de marchés aux puces....sans oublier les cadeaux surprises qu"elle nous a apportés inopinément, merci Saki san!

This is not a hotel, but a great single-unit townhouse in a central area of Kyoto. We had a fantastic time there and would recommend to anyone who's looking for an unusual place to stay.

町屋ホテルでは最高！
今回、1泊2日で利用したのですが、初め場所は分かり辛いのと、建物の中の電源スイッチ類が分かり辛いという、不便さもありましたが、町屋というローケーションで考えるとこの手間を楽しむものと考えてください。 しかしこの町屋内は欧州風にアレンジしてあり、綺麗にリノベートされています。また施設を使えば使うほど、温かみがあり、とても上質な雰囲気を味わえると思います。 キッチンや、お風呂などこだわりのアイテムが多くて、それぞれ使ってみると良さが分かります。 京都観光もいいですが、この町屋を楽しむ時間を作ってみたほうがいいです。
