Kyoto Higashiyama Santou-an

Kyoto Prefecture／Kyoto

A tranquil and relaxing Property situated on the Higashiyama highlands.

Located north of Kodaiji Temple and south of Kiyomizu Temple, this Property is nestled on the slopes of Higashiyama, offering a tranquil atmosphere where you can enjoy the chirping of birds and beautiful sunsets. One of its attractions is the panoramic view of Kyoto's scenery. It is less than a 10-minute walk to Kiyomizu Temple, making it an excellent location for early morning visits starting at 6 a.m. The breakfast, lovingly prepared by the proprietress, is a highlight, and the staff welcomes you with a heartfelt "Welcome back" and sends you off with a warm "Have a great day," making it feel like returning to a distant relative's home. This is a homely Property where "I'm home!" feels just right. We offer a variety of Plans, including a breakfast-included Plan perfect for sightseeing, a two-meal Plan featuring the proprietress's homemade dishes, as well as vegan and fasting Plans.
