Shiki Homes | TSURU KAME 鶴亀

Tsuru Kame is an elegant 110 square meter dual machiya complex and a dream destination for those wanting a spacious casual home that embraces its traditional Japanese design roots.

With sleek white walls, a free open mezzanine style layout, and plenty of windows to allow natural light to flood in, Tsuru Kame is a spacious home that doesn’t compromise coziness for style. This meticulously renovated machiya has been crafted to allow guests to retain privacy while also feeling a sense of airiness and flow. With three bedrooms, two living spaces, and two kitchen and dining areas, this eight-person-capacity home is the ideal choice for those on the hunt for a communal-style space for larger traveling groups and families.

The house is positioned in Kyoto’s center, conveniently located just north of Nijo Castle and west of the iconic Kyoto Gyoen National Garden and the Imperial Palace. With simple but elegantly considered design elements, like the horigotatsu (traditional Japanese table with a recessed floor) and the tranquil Japanese rock garden, combined with modern comforts like western-style bedding, it’s the perfect place to enjoy Kyoto in style.

With such a flexible layout, excellently sized kitchen, and effortless livability, Tsuru Kame is also recommended as a great longer-term rental option. Guests love turning Tsuru Kame into their own little home away from home, and you can too! Shiki offers discount plans for monthly and long-term rentals.

Cute authentic place to stay with lots of rooms

There was 8 of us who stayed in the house and we all had our own bed. That is why I booked this house and it was perfect. Don’t hesitate if you’re debating on it. You’ll be so glad you did. You’ll get an authentic feeling stay. Short 4 min walk to 7 Eleven and 6 min walk to bus. It is a farther walk (15ish min) from subway, which is what you’ll need to take when you have luggage. This was a bummer but we got it done. The 3 cons I have is that it’s far away from subway station. Currently as of this review there is construction on a new home across the street. And it’s a TINY street so you’ll get woken up by that banging every morning. And the last is that the dryer didn’t work. All in all, I still would stay here again. We all loved it!
