“Kotone Machiya-Inn 京町家旅宿 小都音 stands out for its authentic machiya architecture, offering a uniquely Kyoto experience. The garden invites quiet moments, while the full kitchenette suits families or longer stays. I particularly like that it's tucked away from the tourist crowds, yet close to attractions like Nijo Castle.”
