My house is located inside the temple so you will have an perfect experience of the life with Zen(Buddhism). The streets nearby are very clean and the neighborhood is extremely quiet. The famous Kamo river and the Heian Shrine are both within 5 mins' walk from home. Many supermarkets, coffee shop and popular local restaurants are nearby and the life is very convenient.

Hello everyone, this is Hershey from Kyoto, Japan.

I started to be a host in Airbnb since June, 2013 for the reason that I hope more people would know the beauty of Kyoto, which is a fantastic ancient capital of Japan. My houses are all located in Kyoto, all are in a perfect location for you to enjoy the real local life. It is my honor that Hershey's home could highlight your trip in Kyoto and I will do my best to achieve that. I would like to help you arrange your trip, book a restaurant and guide you about the city, so please feel free to send me a message.

Welcome you, to my home, to Kyoto.
Thank you.

Hi Hershey,

I'm a young man born in northern China. I've been studying in Japan alone since high school, and I've been studying in Japan for almost 10 years.I have been living in Kyoto since university, so I know all about the food and beauty here.I started as an Airbnb host in 2014, and we wanted to give more people a chance to experience the amazing life in Kyoto like a local.

Previous guests have said that living in Kyoto is truly a luxury.If so, I am willing to share this luxury with you.Although each of our houses has different layouts and features, their common features are tidy and clean, and transportation is convenient: the comfort of a home, but beyond the usual of a home.We have a professional team that manages every homestay with care.

I hope that our house will be your home when you travel in Kyoto, and that our hardware and software services will leave you with the best memories of your trip to Japan.(Also, the host is a Virgo, so you can understand the cleanliness of the room.)

Lastly, I look forward to meeting you in this zen place in Kyoto.
