About this property

Tucked into one of Japan's most storied cities, ShukuShuku offers a quietly distinguished base in Kyoto, with the golden pavilion of Kinkaku-ji just a short distance away and the atmospheric Kitano Tenmangu Shrine within easy reach. This four-star property carries an almost impossibly high guest…

Who stays here

Best suited for

💑

Couples

Excellent fit

A highly-rated private holiday home in romantic Kyoto is ideal for couples seeking intimacy and culture.

Good fit

Exceptional location and rating appeal to solo travelers, though a full holiday home may feel oversized.

Spacious holiday home with pool and parking suits families, though limited reviews make kid-friendliness unclear.

Fair fit

WiFi and quiet setting help, but the holiday-home format and residential location lack typical business amenities.

"I would come back anytime"

Liked

It’s outside of the city center which makes it very quiet and peaceful. Inside the accommodation is almost everything you need and more than enough space for at least 4 people. The Lady at the Check in was also very kind and helpful.

"Comfortable and lovely space"

Liked

Location, cleanliness, 3 bedrooms to sleep in. The area is super cute - shops, Onsen, nice restaurants. Highly recommended!

Disliked

The main bedroom is on the roadside, so it was quite loud at night. However, we moved to the other bedroom and also to a traditional bedroom with a futon bed. The house is lovely; however, adding more artwork on the walls and a more comfortable couch in the kitchen/living room would improve the space.

"Perfect, simply perfect."

Translated from French

Liked

Located outside the city center but very easy to access, ShukuShuku is in a quiet neighborhood where you can shop, enjoy a coffee with the locals, and be just steps away from a large temple complex, some of which are less crowded. The hosts are charming, and the accommodation is spacious, functional, and elegant.
