IchiEnSou is located in an idyllic location, one street off the main street in the most famous Geisha district in Kyoto, called Gion. The city centre and numerous famous temples and shrines are also within 5 minute walk.
IchiEnSou was renovated in late 2007 to make your stay as comfortable as possible and yet retain the original features of the original house which was built during the 1920's. We have a 4 bed female dormitory and a 7 bed dormitory.

To get to the guesthouse from Minamiza theater, walk one block to the east (to the right when you come out from the exit #6) (walk away from the river on the map) along Shijo street (main street) and turn right at the first traffic light. Walk south for one block (30 meters) from the traffic light, you will see a narrow street (first street from Shijo street, about 3 meters wide) on your left hand side. Walk in to the street for 15 meters from the corner and you will see a small sign, IchiEnSou, on a piece of wood on the black gate of the guesthouse on your left hand side. Please walk in to the passageway and you will find yourself finally arriving at the guesthouse!!

Walk back about 15m to the main intersection of the two busy roads, Shijo and Kawaramachi. From the intersection, walk towards Kamo river along Shijo street and after crossing the bridge, you will see the theater over the traffic light. The directions to IchiEnSou Guesthouse from the theater ( Minamiza Theater ) are shown above.
If you found it difficult to get to the guesthouse, please give us a call from a public telephone outside the theater. Since it takes only 2 minutes for us to go and meet up with you at the theater from the guesthouse, we are more than happy to do so. Please do not hesitate to call us.
