Kyoto is famous for having been the ancient capital of Japan, dating back over 1200 years.The sheer beauty of the temples, shrines, gardens and culture imbued within, makes Kyoto one of the most revered places in Japan.

Momiji-an is one unit of Kyo Machiya Miyabi in Kiyomizu area, a big Kyoto traditional house, and was designed and divided in three machiya (Bairin-an, Shofu-an, Momiji-an) by renowned Kyoto based architect, Geoffrey P. Moussas.
Momiji-an is being meticulously preserved with the traditional techniques that have been handed down over the centuries. While sticking to tradition is important for the architect, updating the facilities, such as modern bath-shower room, high-tech toilet, kitchen, heating floor, are just as important to meet the present day needs of our selective clientele. The delicate balance between 'old and new' is what sets this apart.
Momiji-an is at the foot of Kiyomizu Temple, which is been designed a World Cultural Heritage, and very convenient to visit others famous temples, shrines, and Gion, the most famous Geisha district!

Enjoy Kyoto and the distinctive feautures of local townhomes by staying in a real Machiya, feeling the natural way of living and the change of seasons which distinguishes Kyoto' culture and its people.

City buses or rental bikes can take you to most famous sites in Kyoto within 30 minutes.

An excellent place to stay
We stayed at the Momiji-an house for 3 nights and had a great time. The house itself is spacious and well looked after. The neigborhood is fantastic, a really great way to get the "traditional" Kyoto experience. I would happily recommend this to others.

Very nice authentic japanese house
We were looking for an historical place to spend the night during our stay in Kyoto and this place is very well situated, yes away frlm the crowd so you are not bothered by noises. Because this is a historical house, it is not sound proof bug this is part of the experience and lime I said, it's a very quiet street so outdoor noises where not an issue at all. Neighbors were very quiet. We realized that ghere qas someone only when we heard someone coughing :). It's 2 mn walk away from the historical streets that are pedestrian. Very convenient. There's no block out curtains in the tatami room (where you sleep) but we had sleeping masks and this wasn't an issue for us. The owner was very responsive and always eager to help. I definitely recommend this place.

Anniversary visit to Kyoto
My husband and I had a great time in Kyoto! This was our first visit & most definitely not our last. From the minute we booked this house to stay, we knew we would have a nice stay. Everyone’s correspondence thru the app were so prompt & incredibly helpful! We had the pleasure of meeting Jun & Jackie. Jun, thank you for being so lovely & warm. You welcomed us with a beautiful bouquet of flowers for our anniversary. The house was perfect for us. Very clean, spacious, loved the bathroom (still reminiscing, sighs & smiles) I was super happy about the washer & dryer. It’s the best 2-1machine we have ever used! Ooh and another great feature, especially if you will stay here in the cold season, the floors are heated!!!! Need I say more?! Lol ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS HOUSE Also, Jun gave us many suggestions for food & to do! Arigatōu gozaimasu 🙏🏽 !! We were able to walk to Gion, Geisha district, Zen temple and many others. The food around town is outstanding! Everyone in the markets & boutique stores were inviting & friendly. We will be back & look forward to staying here again! OX

Why they chose this property

We could see a glitter of traditional atmosphere on the roof, wooden pillars, sliding doors or small gardens inside the house.
The townhouse is called Machiya and this house strongly stimulated us to restore for living. Machiya used to be townhouses or shops for the merchants in the 17 th century.
Not only temples and shrines, but machiya stay is an attractive experience for all who want to know more about Kyoto ' life style and its culture.

What makes this property unique

A 15 minutes walk will take you to the riverside of the Kamogawa. You can take a pleasent stroll along the river, or do shopping in the nearby Kawaramachi area, convenient during rainy days as the shopping streets are covered, like Nishiki food market street.
A night life spot is Pontocho, a narrow lane with no cars, full of elegant restaurants, bars, and where you can have a glimpse of a Geisha or Maiko on the way or from an appointment.
Next street west of Pontocho is Kiyamachi, a very lively night zone where you can find many kinds of restaurants, bars, pubs and more...
Enjoy Kyoto just walking from Momiji-an!
