The Sanbonishinotoin-cho townhouse has its own tea ceremony room on the first floor, and a private back garden. Radiant in-floor heating is installed throughout the house. The street frontage of the property is occupied by Koyama-en, one of Kyoto's finest tea shops, serving green tea and traditional sweets.
The popular shopping streets Karasuma and Sanjo are within easy walking distance. Guests are encouraged to take a walk to historical Nijo castle, where the Shogunate finally handed power back to the imperial court at the end of the Edo period.
