Overview

Ginkaku-an is not a hotel, but rather a full-equipped rental house requiring a contract: period of more than 1 week (6 night and 7 days). Even for people wanting to enjoy Kyoto as a whole, Shiga Prefecture, Osaka, or Kobe, you can find a place to write haiku, paint, and engage in other creative activities, refresh yourselves, or even to commute back and forth to Kyoto University Hospitals. All of these people will find a place to stay at Ginkaku-An. For anyone interested in staying at Ginkaku-An, we hope that we are here for you to feel that "this is the place that I can relax" or, "this is my place in Kyoto". If we have accomplished this, then we will be most satisfied. Please contact me by email because I'm not good at listening and speaking English. For those wanting to stay here, and for those without a Japanese translator, one can be provided for a charge of reasonable price. I'm sincerely looking forward to seeing you. Sincerely, Fumiko Asada, Please look at my HP and blog.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud

It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:

  • It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
  • If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
  • Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
