Central Kyoto Apartment | A Designer Space In Central Kyoto

1 Bedroom Apartment in Central Kyoto, Nakagyoku

I know, I know. You're coming to Kyoto and have been thinking about staying in a machiya, which sounds like a great idea. But after a long day of walking around town, you're going to want to come back to rest in a comfortable room well-suited for relaxing, reading, conversation, pleasure. If you're interested in a homely, congenial,, utterly unique experience, you should definitely consider staying in The Moon Room.
Our apartment is located in Kyoto's Nakagyo-ku neighborhood ("Nakagyo" literally means Downtown). Unlike other B&Bs and guesthouses near Kyoto Station or Higashiyama, Nakagyo is quite central when it comes to dining and entertainment. All my guests receive a pocket wifi for finding their way through the city, including a carefully curated website I have prepared exclusively for guests recommending within the area restaurant/cafe/bakery/bar/ souvenir/services/sightseeing options (with the establishment addresses linked to google maps for easy directions).
Our space is just a five minute walk from Marutamachi Station, on the city's north-south subway line (Karasuma), and about ten minutes from Karasuma-Oike, where the city's two subway lines intersect, thus marking the center of Kyoto.
The Moon Room is great for families since it is less than ten minutes' walk from a major playground/ children's center as well as the Manga Museum, not to mention some wonderful bakeries and a crepe restaurant.
Nijo Castle and the Imperial Palace are just ten-minute strolls away, while Higashiyama and its wonderful temple complexes are easy train and bus rides. (Kyoto's sites are spread out in all directions, so there's no one neighborhood that is near everything, which is why being in a dining-rich neighborhood might suit your accommodation needs best.)
The neighborhood itself, though close to Downtown, is quiet and traditional and it is not unusual to see women in kimono or monks chanting. Many of the neighborhood's machiya houses specialize in old-time industries like printmaking, woodcutting, and tatami-producing, as well as stores selling tea, ivory, dolls, medicinal herbs, and incense.
Nevertheless, The Moon Room is also a wonderful place to relax on a windy or lazy day, to contemplate or pleasure in the romance of living. Designed specifically by a local artist, there is nothing like our space in all of Kyoto. It is part of a first wave of what we hope is a designer's renaissance in this very old city.
In addition to regular wifi in the room, pocket wifi is provided to help you when you explore the city. And inside the welcome book you'll also find my handmade map, an insider's guide for dining in what might be one of the best culinary cities in the world.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Summary: this was a perfect place --very clean and close to train stations. In a bit more quiet area of Kyoto but still close enough to get to busier places... Sean the host was very accommodating and kept in contact with us and responded quickly to ALL my questions...

Kenneth F. Aug 22, 2023 10:03:01 AM

Summary: Probably the best place I’ve stayed in all my travels to Japan, hotels included. Great host, great location, the space was much bigger than I expected, very clean, and there was notebook with all local places to go.

Linda S. Dec 29, 2019 09:23:23 PM

Summary: Our family of 3 were very happy here. The space is big enough and Sean was very generous with his guidance on what to see and where to eat in Kyoto. The neighborhood is a very convenient location, close to subway and lots of restaurants and convenient stores. A good find for the price.

Mary B. Dec 28, 2019 04:17:58 AM

Summary: Even though Sean was away on a family trip while we stayed at his place he was always available to help! He was also very accommodating and kind. The place is very comfortable and we enjoyed at time when we were there. It maybe a “room”. But it functions as an apartment with a lot of space for 4 adults.

Nam V. Jul 20, 2019 06:18:46 AM

Summary: The size of the unit is like a typical studio apartment in the U.S. It has a sitting area, sleeping area, bathroom and kitchenette area (dorm fridge, microwave, counter top burner, coffee maker). The property is in a nice neighborhood. It is a short walking distance to transportation (less than 5 minutes). There are many great local restaurants nearby. Sean (property owner) was very responsive. He always answered all enquiries very promptly. His guide to things to do in Kyōto and local restaurant guide was great.

Moiz B. Mar 12, 2019 04:14:54 AM

Summary: Loved the area and really enjoyed how close this place is to the train line.

Anthony E. Jul 27, 2018 10:10:31 AM

Summary: My sons and I really enjoyed staying at this location. We are big guys and had no issues with the space. The beds were super comfortable. The shower was great, really hot water with excellent pressure. The apartment is less than 5 mins from the metro and finding a taxi was never an issue. Super markets and drug stores are 5 to 8 mins away respectfully. Sean, the host, is really amazing very accommodating and helpful. He’s even created a website with his recommendations for food and the like. You can’t go wrong, if I ever find myself in Kyoto again I hope this apartment is available. Sean, thank you for everything your apartment made our stay in Kyoto that much better.

Keith I. Jul 16, 2018 09:19:11 PM

Summary: Really amazing space which is very well positioned for sightseeing. The host was great at communicating and was very helpful with local information. We would stay again
