田中家日式旅馆

This was our favorite room in our two weeks in Japan. Kyoto was our last stop before coming back to the States, and we were exhausted. Our hostess greeted us with cool tea (it was VERY hot at this time, so this was wonderful), and showed us a map of the area. The area itself is gorgeous. If you're looking for the old Japan, here it is. Walking down the narrow alley was just too cool. My husband was worried that he wouldn't sleep well on the futon, but we were very comfortable for both nights. On our second night, our hostess brought us some seasonal fruit. Our view was nothing, and the hallway wasn't air-conditioned, but I have nothing but VERY pleasant memories of our stay in Kyoto. We are planning on returning to Kyoto after I finish my next degree, and we are probably going to be back in Tanaka-ya.

This is by far the nicest place we stayed. The owner is lovely, the area is amazing, and the rooms are nice.

Beautiful property in a more traditional style, very affordable and an excellent location! Highly recommended
