I don’t feel safe when staying with kids at This property. The property seems to be very fragile. You can hear all the noise around the street. Even when the next door people slide their door. Cannot sleep properly.
Mosquito bite can be an issue for our family as there is still marks on my kids face and body.
The owner lives very close to the house. Very helpful and nice lady. The house might be suitable for adults alone but not family with kids.
Our stay was very enjoyable in a lovely authentic traditional guesthouse with all you need. Extremely helpful info guide prepared by owner Rika. Quiet and safe area
Steep stairs for navigating to upstair bedrooms but option of sleeping downstairs too.
We had been staying in this beautiful house for 7 days during our visit to Kyoto. It is such a great experience for us to understand the traditional living style and culture of Kyoto. Korakuan is well maintained and we feel very comfortable with the facilities provided. A map of the nearby area, train/JR stations and a list of restaurant are well prepared by the owner. We tried the public bath and some restaurants recommended which are good. Best of all , Ms Rika , the owner is very nice and helpful. She attended to all our request immediately and was a great help to us during our stay. Thank you Rika. Will definitely stay again and it is highly recommended.
we liked the fact that it was authentic but still with modern facilities
it was a great place to stay the experience was unique
location was good as well with great info supplied by owners re surrounding facilities and transport links
We would definitly recommend this property
This was a great experience for family! Great for groups and larger than most hotels! The beds were large and soft and the rooms are clean. There is a kitchen for cooking as well! Anyone coming to Kyoto wanting to experience tatami should live at Koraku-an. Rika was a great host and even showed us out on check out.
This was such a special property to stay in and in a fantastic location. The manager was so helpful and welcoming. So much good food nearby and good transport. The building itself is magical and very well equipped. A wonderful place to stay to experience this amazing city!
