I stayed in Amber House with my parents and brother and we had such a lovely time. It was so nice to be able to spread out and we loved the quiet neighborhood. I think it was a highlight of the trip for everyone. All the charms of an old Japanese house without the inconveniences!

10/10

We stayed in this house which is full of character for six nights. It had everything we needed for two adults and three children and was in a fabulous location - close to rail and bus links to see the sites and lots of easy eateries very close by. The booking process was easy and efficient. There is a small cafe next door and the manager was hugely helpful and serves great burgers and won-ton soup which went down well with the kids! Overall a great experience.

Such a rare thing to find so much quiet space among the crowds. And the location couldn't be better! Easy access to many great locations and the facility was great!

I have stayed in 2 of Curtis's place in Gion (Both at the Amber house and the Gion house, on 2 separate occasions) and i would really love to recommend both places to stay. The location is really convenient within walking distance from major tourist attractions and yet without the usual ruckus that tourists bring. The accommodation is in a quiet part of the neighbourhood with friendly neighbours around and a handy grocery shop round the corner. Kyoto is known for its temples and shrines, and having Kenninji just next door would really add to the experience. Imagine waking up the calm morning chants from the temple - there's no better way to start your mornings than that. The houses are very well equipped with everything thing you will possibly need and very clean and well kept too! Lovely and spacious too! The friendly people working with Curtis are very helpful and kind too. If you would need any help during your stay, they would be the go to person! I had the privilege of meeting Curtis himself on the morning before my departure which was a very nice touch. I look forward to coming back to stay the next time i'm in Kyoto :)

We are family of 4 with an adult son and a teenage daughter. We spent 5 nights at the Amber Gion house. It was unusually hot when we were there (35-37C), the air con was a bless and the washer / dryer was very handy. Location and the house itself are absolute wonderful. The iphone saved the day when I tried to communicate with the taxi driver during our check out, simply call Saki and she did the translation for us ! The whole experience from enquiries - booking - staying - check out was very pleasant. We had a lovely stay and will recommend this house for visiting Kyoto (may not be suitable for the less able, wooden stairs to the upstairs bedrooms with toilet downstairs).

My family and I stayed at the Amber Gion house for five nights. The house is located on a quiet street but very close to public transportation and the main shopping street. It has everything to make the stay comfortable and more. We especially like the use of the iPhone that came with the rental. It enables us to have wifi connection while out and about, so we can look up places and directions. Curtis and his team are very professional and friendly. They are very quick with all responses. We really enjoyed our stay and I highly recommend this beautiful property!

Our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children) had a wonderful stay at Amber House. Not only is the house very beautiful and comfortable, Junko and Saki, the local managers, are wonderfully helpful, booking restaurants and the like. The location is excellent. In easy walking to distance to all Gion, Shijo and Kiyo mizudera for example (or to train stations to take you elsewhere if you are not prepared to listen to your children complaining that 5kms is far too far to walk...). As commented by others, the iPhone to use is a great idea. It stopped us getting lost many a time. WiFi quality is good. Curtis himself is very helpful and responds quickly to e-mails. I never had any concern parting with payment. Try JoJo restaurant (a delicious neighbourhood place), or 15 mins down Shijo, Jiki Miyazawa (what wonderful food). We will certainly be back.

Our stay in Kyoto was the highlight of our two weeks in Japan. Our host Curtis was extremely helpful when we wanted to know the ins and outs of this marvelous city. Amber House is serene. You hear the soft gongs of the temple that seem to place you far from the city. Curtis's staff is a block away, ready to give assistance, and the house comes with a mobile phone for exploring Kyoto. The house is fitted out with the best of kitchen, bath, and bedroom comfort all the while that a minimalist Japanese style prevails. Highly recommended.

My husband, son and I spent a week in the Amber House. We knew we wanted a traditional home in Gion, and that's what we got, but it is so much more. It is beautifully restored and also has modern amenities that made it very comfortable. As another reviewer mentioned, the house manager Saki was wonderful. She helped us with answering questions we had to suggesting restaurants and places to visit. The house comes with an iphone - and Saki was always just a call away. We were also delighted to stay in a beautifully historic location, within walking distance of almost everything. Climbing the hill up the winding stone steps to Maruyama Park, and then visiting the temples and just strolling and taking in the spectacular views of Kyoto, was our favorite activity. We went up to this area almost every day. We also enjoyed The Philospher's Path, and strolling along the river that cuts through the city. We would return to Kyoto and to Amber House in a heartbeat.

Curtis and his team have gone above and beyond to provide and outstanding property that allows travelers to live like local Japanese in Kyoto. The house is amazing and has every amenity you could ask for. I especially liked their book of restaurant recommendations. Many of the eateries they recommend are amazing and do not show up on any guide books. Again, this is a great property and managed by a capable team.

We had such a gorgeous and memorable time last month staying in this traditional home with its quiet charm and central location. Each room was so beautiful and cosy and we loved the neighbourhood and easy to reach temples, traditional tea houses and sweets galore. After the hustle and bustle of Tokyo it was a welcome change of pace to rest up in this spacious home with its peaceful atmosphere and beautifully preserved history!

After nearly 20 hours of traveling, including a long, late night shuttle ride from the Osaka airport, we were utterly spent, hungry, thirsty and a teeny bit cranky. Our family of four included me, my husband, and 2 teenage boys. The Amber House was a welcoming oasis, complete with chilled water, orange juice, milk, and a big bag of granola. This small consideration by host Curtis meant the world to us as we arrived exhausted for our first night in Kyoto. We stayed for one week, and found every convenience in this beautiful 2 bedroom machiya home - a washer/dryer combo, compact yet fully equipped kitchen, super comfortable futons for bedtime, and tatami mat flooring that comforted our tired feet every day, after hours of sightseeing & exploring gorgeous Kyoto. Other thoughtful conveniences included umbrellas, shampoo, coffee, dish & laundry detergent, and best of all - an iPhone already programmed with all of the essential info you need to get around and then get back home w/out using our personal phones (google maps, taxi company, a fantastic translator app that recognizes & reads Japanese characters - a life saver with restaurant menus!) Several times, we called the taxi service, which Curtis had programmed into the phone. They always had an agent that spoke some English, and they already had the Amber House address in their system, eliminating the need to explain where we were. Curtis happened to be in Kyoto at the time - he and his assistant Junko were available to make dinner reservations, assist with translations, help us figure out train routes and where to find the local grocery store. We were there in hot, muggy July, so our most favorite amenities of all were the air conditioning units throughout the house. The cool air helped us to recover from our wilted state after our daily adventures. About the immediate area: tiny little alleys packed with traditionally detailed residences, charming neighborhood restaurants, and just a few block further out, busier commercial areas where we shopped, ate, and enjoyed observing the locals going about their business. The train stations are nearby, allowing for travel to other major cities. I have already recommended the Amber House to several friends in the San Francisco area, and would absolutely stay here again in the future!!!!

This charming "Machiya" is very centrally located on a cul-de-sac next to Kennin-ji Temple, surrounded by other old homes and has a wonderful traditional Japanese feeling. This is an established old area: while we were there, the little surrounding neighborhood had a traditional Shinto street festival one day with a float and Shinto priest presiding; all the neighbors came out and socialized and invited us to join in! The house itself is self-contained, with modern kitchen appliances and a washer/dryer. It is also extremely well organized for the foreign traveler with small English-language labels giving instruction on operation of the appliances (so helpful!). All incidentals are amply provided: laundry detergent, soap, shampoo, conditioner, toilet paper, kitchen towels, bathroom towels, etc., which was really convenient for us. The floor radiant heating system was nicely warming and quiet on cool mornings. There is a "house iPhone" provided for domestic calls - again super-convenient - and the Wi-Fi was strong and fast. The two upstairs bedrooms were spacious by Machiya standards (8+ tatami mat), with large closets, and the beds were comfortable for sleeping. Downstairs is a well organized kitchen, a central foyer/entry area, and a tastefully furnished living room.

I stayed at the Amber house for 3 weeks with my wife and 4-year-old son. The house manages to strike a perfect balance between Meiji-period aesthetics and modern convenience. In addition to what you can see in the pictures, the smell of the wood, creaky floorboards, soft sound of drums from Kennin-ji, and general attention to detail in interior design make for a great aesthetic experience. The well-equipped kitchen, the house iPhone, washer-dryer, and clear instructions + thorough English labelling enabled a hassle-free stay. The location is great. Right in the heart of Gion, several beautiful temple grounds are within a walking distance, as is the Shijo shopping street. The house is at the end of an impassé, and there's little noise from outside save from the occasional embarrassed giggle of a tourist realising they have taken the wrong turn. I heartily recommend renting a bike to anyone with city biking experience - it really opens Kyoto up for you. You can find a rental for 1-2 € per day (!) if you rent for a couple of weeks or more. We stayed at the Amber House at a time when it was quite cold (below 0 degrees C in the night), and I do recommend packing some warm PJ's if that's what the weather forecast has in store. However, floor heating in the kitchen, feather duvet's in the bedrooms, and the tub to take some nice hot baths in helped a lot in keeping my family warm. We got good and responsive service from Curtis & the crew and felt that our well-being was their priority.
