Where Performers Once Gathered

Miyakamo-An, holding the memory of the Hanamachi.

Originally owned by a Geiko (Geisha), Miyakamo-An was a cultural hub where performers and locals gathered in the heart of Miyagawacho. This rare 3-story machiya preserves that spirit of "Iki" — Kyoto-style sophistication — across 111.59 sqm of beautifully restored space. The 1st-floor bar counter, the 2nd-floor kitchen and dining, and the 3rd-floor private bedrooms create a vertical journey through history and comfort.
