Japanese and Western Purpose Vintage house ~ Bus, subway, JR station 2-6 min walk ~ Nijo castle next to World Heritage Nijo Castle

"Jingju U-house" has been transformed from old houses from 73 years.On the basis of maintaining the original building, there are both Japanese typical Kyomachiya design and modern western style.It's not fancy, but every decoration is unique.Rather than being a homestay, it's your second home in Kyoto.The combination of Japanese and Western decoration style allows you to deeply experience the modern Japanese lifestyle. “U-house” was transformed from an old building 73 years ago. Although it is not luxurious ，everying is unique. I would say “U-house” is your small villa in kyoto rather than a homestay. The combination of Japanese and Western styles will give you a deeper experience of the modern Japanese lifestyle.
