Kyoto Autumn Foliage Season: Stay in a Japanese Dream Room for Only 400 RMB Per Person!

Forget about splurging on overpriced small hotels for maple viewing in Kyoto! For just 2,000 RMB, you can rent an entire century-old machiya townhouse, complete with a golden folding screen tea room, a dry landscape garden, and a handmade brick bathtub. It’s super comfortable and full of charm—everyone who’s stayed here raves about it🍂!
✅ Why do we highly recommend it? These points hit right at the heart!
• Authentic Kyoto-style old house: A renovated century-old machiya! Original beams, tatami mats, and paper sliding doors are all preserved. The moment you step inside, it feels like you’ve walked into a Japanese drama~
• Perfect for photos: Open the door to a Showa-era golden folding screen (with pine and bird motifs!), and enjoy tea in the historic tea room; the dry landscape garden is stunning—red leaves fall on white sand in autumn, and moss is covered by snow in winter. Every snap is a masterpiece📸!
• Super comfortable stay: The whole house accommodates 5 people, with two bedrooms upstairs (a double bed + a soft tatami room), and a Japanese-style room downstairs that serves as a tea room by day and a bed by night. The space is very flexible~
• Bathrooms are a big plus: Smart toilets on both floors, so no waiting! The handmade Kyoto brick bathtub is amazing—soak while gazing at the garden. After a day of walking, a bath here will fully recharge you🛀!
• Very convenient living: Kitchen, refrigerator, and washing machine are all available, perfect for long stays—no need to carry dirty clothes around while traveling~
👍 The location is unbeatable! Right outside the door are top attractions
The guesthouse is in the heart of Higashiyama Ward, very quiet surroundings, just a few steps to:
• Kennin-ji Temple: 1 minute (perfect for an early morning stroll!)
• Yasaka Pagoda / Gion / Hanamikoji Street: 5 minutes (super close for kimono photo shoots!)
• Kiyomizu-dera Temple / Yasaka Shrine / Kamo River: 10 minutes
• 24-hour supermarket + bus stop to Kyoto Station: 5 minutes, convenient for shopping and travel~
💡 Little Tips
There’s a kimono rental shop right next door! Wearing authentic kimono in front of the golden folding screen, along the tatami corridor, or under the maple leaves in the garden will give you a cinematic vibe👘!
💰 Reference price: 2,000 RMB per night for the entire house, up to 5 people (no single room rentals), super cost-effective per person, perfect for family trips or trips with friends!
