Renovated Guesthouse West of Nijo Castle

Guesthouse located approx. 5 min. to Nijo Station
This renovated guesthouse blends a simple modern design with traditional Kyoto elements -like a lovely Tsuboniwa garden visible from inside - that create a peaceful and refined atmosphere.
The property is within walking distance from both Subway and JR Nijo Station, offering convenient access for daily life or travel.
With direct train access to Arashiyama, Karasuma-Oike, and Higashiyama, and easy connections to Osaka and Kobe, the location is ideal for both locals and visitors.
Currently operated as a lodging facility, the house can continue to function as a guesthouse or be used as a second home or investment property for rental purposes.
PLAN
Though compact in size, the layout includes features such as a Tsuboniwa garden and Tokonoma alcove, creating a luxurious and atmospheric experience in true Kyoto style.
The property comes fully furnished, allowing for immediate operation as a guesthouse or vacation rental.
※Note: Operating as an accommodation business requires reapplying for the inn license under the new owner’s name, or officially transferring the business.

AREA
Located just 5 minutes from Subway Tozai-line's Nijo Station and 7 minutes from JR Nijo Station, the property offers easy access to central Kyoto and the Kansai region, including Osaka.
A short walk from JR Nijo Station brings you to the Kyoto Sanjo-Kai Shopping Arcade, one of the longest arcades in western Japan, stretching 800m and home to about 180 shops. Supermarkets, convenience stores, restaurants, and pharmacies are all nearby, making it easy to live comfortably without venturing far from home.
