和愛宕旅館 (Guest House Atagoya)

星級評鑑以住宿資訊（飯店提供之服務與設施等）綜合評等為基準，僅供參考

A beguiling charming traditional stay in an enchanted low rise part of Kyoto near the river and the bamboo forest. Host could not be more helpful or courteous.

This is the perfect place to stay in Aryshima, very easy and comfortable stay, so close to the train station and to the bamboo forest and the surrounding area. Fabulous host who is very accommodating and provides great local recommendations.

Kenji, the host for the guesthouse was a pleasure to communicate with. Friendly, helpful and responsive, you couldn’t have asked for a better host. The lodging is a traditional Japanese home set up that helps you immerse into history and how families still live in Japan (and East Asia). The location is walking distance to Arashiyama Bamboo Forest, temples and tourist zone without being in the thick of it. It’s simple, no frills and comfortable enough accommodation at a convenient location. You have access to fridge and simple kitchen with shared bathroom. I never ran into the other occupants during my stay.

If you’re looking for an authentic tatami mat stay with easy access to great food and local experiences - and don’t mind sharing a bathroom with other guests - we highly recommend this place! Our young kids absolutely loved it and said it was their favorite stay of the trip. As early risers, we enjoyed morning walks to Lawsons for coffee and snacks before heading out for the day. We were able to walk easily to the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest multiple times, as well as Adashino Nenbutsuji Temple and Otagi Nenbutsuji Temple, all of which I highly recommend visiting. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this place to others.

Kenji was a very nice host and his "guest house English" speaking was wonderful!! It is a perfect location if you are looking to wake up early and walk to the bamboo forest, you can be one of the first people there. Kenji also gave us recommendations of places to visit in the area that you otherwise may not have known about.
