Reviews of Anzu an Machiya House 4 stars

Very handy location for sights, restaurants and shopping. 7Eleven about 20 metres from the door. Cute but well appointed traditional house that enhanced the Japanese experience.

No kitchen bench space made basic food prep a bit of a challenge, but only minor. Watch your head on the doorways😁

Location was great. We walked everywhere! It was 2 of us, so we enjoyed have some space. We each had our own room, and the sitting area with table. We didn't really use the kitchen, it was more the fridge and kettle. We did use the wash machine provided and loved that they had left soap for us. They did have shampoo and body wash, all linens provided Note there are steep stairs - which was fine for us, as we had light luggage and okay on stairs.

It was pretty basic, and could use a deep clean. The table in the sitting area needs to be stabilized, it felt like it was going to fall apart. Most places i've stayed at in Japan have more facial products, masks...etc just a thought to take it the next level.

Where authentic experience. I liked that it had all the necessary equipment, including good washer machine with dryer

The most I love about about the property is very convenient and very close to 7 eleven. Less than 1minute and 5minutes walk towards to the fresco grocery area. And fully equipped kitchen.

We could experience a beautiful traditional mini ryokan at great value for money. Very close to Nishiki market and walkable to Gion district by 20mins.

We thought the AC in the bedroom didn’t work so well, so do check with the staff beforehand. They were super helpful with everything else, including late check in requirements otherwise! If you’re a bigger person, maybe more than a 2-3 days stay in this place would be a little difficult for you to climb up and down the stairs.

The stay was simple. The location of the property was central and close to great areas. The house was comfortable and authentic.

Being very picky, the toilet and bathroom could of been separate with a family.

Location was great, and the house was very clean. We were in downtown Kyoto, but close enough to Gion, Nishiki Market, and many restaurants. There were several supermarkets & convenience stores in the neighborhood, too. The subway was also just a short walk away. It was the perfect place to stay with with my wife - having the whole house to ourselves let us relax more than a normal hotel. Appreciated the washing machine (we did several washes during our stay) and bathroom amenities. Wish we stayed longer!

Location, cleaniness, good neighborhood, scent of the room

we wish there was a chair in the house

Quiet

Small, lack of amenities, place full of mosquitoes

The house is a beautiful traditional Japanese town house and everything is amazingly designed. The location we found to be perfect and only a few minutes walk from the Main Street of Kyoto for shopping and restaurants. The Ginza district also not too much further from here. We encountered a couple of small issues which were very quickly rectified by the staff after messaging them. The beds were very comfy and clean sheets and the kitchen had utensils for making coffee and cooking too. Also lots of fresh towels and toilet rolls provided.

I would only mention a couple of things - one being that the shower and bath room smelt a little musty. The second only a small thing but there is no full length mirror which I found to be a little annoying! Other than that it was a perfect stay!
