2 Bedroom House in Kamigyo, Kyoto-shi

Sleek with unmistakable Kyoto style and classic machiya ambiance, Hikari is a cozy, fully renovated traditional Japanese home. The house features plenty of old-world charm, while its modern renovation ensures that guests have all the amenities they need for a comfortable and unforgettable stay. Elegantly simple design and bedrooms that look like something ripped from the pages of a home interior editorial magazine spread, this five-person-capacity home is a wonderful choice when staying in Kyoto.
Hikari, along with two other Shiki Complex houses, Haru and Aki, are proudly owned by an individual with long-term ties to Kyoto and the Kamigyo-Ku neighborhood in which the homes are situated. The houses are owned by local Raku-san, the current owner and operator of the nearby Raku Museum. The Raku Museum is a fascinating local landmark dedicated to showcasing the Raku family’s famous ceramics. The Raku family was the family that made the bowls for Sen no Rikyu, Japan’s master of the tea ceremony. You can trust when you stay at a Shiki Complex home your money is going to help support local businesses.
With soft, almost matcha-like greens of the bedroom’s tatami, earthy colored walls, and warm wooden finishes, as well as shoji sliding paper doors, Hikari embodies the tranquility of simple Japanese design. Although it has plenty of traditional elegance, it still feels tidy, spacious, and effortlessly livable.
Each room of the house has its own distinct personality, and the entire home feels airy and light while also retaining a sense of coziness and warmth. A little smaller than its sister homes Aki and Haru, Hiraki can accommodate up to five guests. It boasts 75 square meters of space spread across two floors and features a Japanese zen garden out the back.

This 2 Bedrooms House provides accommodation with TV, Wellness Facilities, Fireplace/Heating, for your convenience. This House features many amenities for guests who want to stay for a few days, a weekend or probably a longer vacation with family, friends or group. The rental House has 2 Bedrooms and 1 Bathroom to make you feel right at home.

Check to see if this House has the amenities you need and a location that makes this a great choice to stay in Kamigyo. Enjoy your stay in Kamigyo at this House.

Review Score:   6
Summary: We actually did not stay at the property because when we got there we realized the photo of the stairs to the upstairs bedrooms did not at all accurately depict how steep they are. Yes there is a photo of the stairs, but the stairs themselves were actually more like a ladder. The bamboo railing was very light and flimsy and the stairs themselves were very slippery. In short, it would have simply been difficult for us to sleep upstairs if we planned to get up to use the restroom in the middle of the night.When we complained about the safety issue, they ultimately refunded our money.
