◼︎ About "Kiraku Tei Kiyomizu"
An encounter with food, a mansion in Ishibei-koji.
"Kiraku Tei Kiyomizu" is a rented villa designed for food lovers, quietly nestled in the peaceful alleys of Ishibei-koji, Higashiyama, Kyoto. This street, lined with stone pavements and machiya townhouses, strongly retains Kyoto's traditional atmosphere. While located within walking distance to famous landmarks like Kiyomizu-dera, Kodai-ji, and Gion, it remains a special corner where tranquil time flows.
The traditional two-story wooden building features a kitchen and counter seating on the first floor where a private chef can be invited, adjacent to a Japanese-style room with a horigotatsu (sunken hearth). Further back is a living room with a minibar overlooking the garden, providing a relaxing time. On the second floor, a spacious king-size bedroom and a large bathtub where guests can enjoy the scent of cypress wood are provided for a comfortable stay.
In terms of architecture and design, the depth and enveloping feel inherent to the Ishibei-koji area are considered the core value of the stay. Great importance is placed on the continuous experience transitioning from the approach through the alley into the interior rooms. The architectural and interior design was handled by kooo architects, who operate the renovation brand "Ichijo Jukken."
◼︎ Private Chef Experience
Leveraging the signature kitchen and counter seating of the accommodation, "Kiraku Tei Kiyomizu" offers a culinary experience with a private chef. Guests can choose from multiple genres prepared by chefs refining their skills in Kyoto, such as meat kappo, kaiseki, and traditional kappo, delivering an exclusive time to quietly savor a meal inside the villa.
Details regarding the chefs and menus will be provided individually to guests who make a reservation.
