Mariel's Experience
We loved staying at Rinn Premium! The accommodations and service were top-notch. We appreciated how welcoming the staff was, and how seamless the checkin process was. The hotel was also conveniently located near the train station, which made it easy for us to tour different areas of Kyoto during the day. We also appreciated how the staff was willing to store our luggage before checking in and after we checked out - this made it easier for us to make the most out of our time in Kyoto. Atsuko at the front desk was especially nice and helpful!
Paolo's Experience
We're staying at a traditional style Kyoto townhouse called a Machiya converted into a hotel. So if you're looking for a place to stay with your family in Kyoto, this may be a good option if it meets your criteria. As mentioned in the video, Rinn, invited us to stay at their Machiya, a traditional Kyoto wooden townhouse. Kyoto’s Machiyas are natural wooden townhouses, first built when Kyoto was still the capital of Japan between 1000’s and the 1200’s, and are known for their unique elongated design and narrow entrance, called unagi no nedoko, a place where eels sleep, which was direct a result of laws that taxed property owners based on the width of their entrance. So you'll find that many traditional style machiya homes to be narrow and long. This is our Machiya stay experience and our travels around the Kyoto area.
