Our family of 16 people stayed at Candlehouse for 5 nights. We had 8 adults, 2 seniors, and 6 kids stay at Candlehouse and there was comfortable and ample space and bedding for all.
When we first arrived at 9:30pm, Kayo and Ryuta were so welcoming - they were both at the house to greet us. The house was so thoughtfully prepared for our arrival. There were a lot of boxes of juice in the fridge for us. They also gave us some delicious cakes for our stay. Lastly, we were so thankful for their thoughtful touch to give each of our 6 kids a gift bag of toys/activities.
The location is great. About 5 minute walk to Ichigaya station (JR and subway lines). Also close to Yotsuya station. There’s a 24 hour supermarket right next to Ichigaya station, and many local restaurants (eg ramen, soba, Mos Burger, McDonald’s). If you go across the bridge on the other side of Ichigaya station, there were even more choices.
The rooms were all thoughtfully appointed, with good air conditioning, and comfortable bedding. They provided plenty of clean towels. They came by everyday to tidy up and take out the trash. A big plus about Candlehouse was that there were 3 toilets and 2 bathrooms - important when you have a large group like us. The kitchen was well-equipped with all the utensils, equipment, coffee machine, tea and condiments you’d need if you wanted to cook.
It was such a pleasure communicating with Kayo. She responded promptly to my queries and was so willing to help us.
I highly recommend Candlehouse especially for big groups wanting a good place to spend time together but also with enough space for everyone to have some privacy too.
