• The city bus is the most convenient way to get to our guesthouse from Kyoto JR train station. Please to get on #206 buses (230 yen/person) from D2 bus stand which is located in front of the northern exit of the station (where you can see Kyoto Tower).
• Please be aware that Umamachi bus stop is a small one and maybe you cannot find the name on the bus stop sign post. Because this bus is normally very crowded and some of our guests are not able to get off. When you see Umamachi on the electric sign board indicating the next stop, please press the bell to inform the driver that you are going to get off at the next bus stop (or make sure someone has pressed the bell) and try to get closer to the exit. Umamachi is the next one after Higashiyama Shichijo bus stop and about 15 min from Kyoto station.
• After you get off the bus, walk about 70 m forward to the same direction as the bus, to an intersection with traffic lights and Lawson convenience store. Turn right at the intersection, keep walking straight, passing S-shaped curve and you will see our guesthouse sign board on the right hand side. It is about 300 m long from the intersection and please be prepared it is a slope upward.
• If you are to take a taxi, it will cost around 1,100 yen from the station to our guesthouse. The last 300 meter to reach our guesthouse is an up slope. Strongly recommend to take a taxi if you have a lot of luggage.
• There is a map on our website as well, please have a look and feel free to ask if you have further inquiries.
