TABIDO Last Updated : 2019.2.20

"Machiya" has been built with wooden architectural style unique to Kyoto, which is characterized by narrow entrance and long depth. Constructions with the same concept can be seen also in Europe etc. In ancient Kyoto, as tax was imposed according to the width of entrance, many of such buildings were born.

Now, we introduce "Machiya Residence Inn" which handles many of such machiya accommodations in Kyoto and makes efforts for improving functions so as to allow guests to stay in the machiya comfortably even for the first time. You can rent an entire Kyo-machiya with an area of approx. 50 ~ 100 ㎡as a private space only for one group, and enjoy special stay peculiar to Kyoto, which is different from usual. Since "Machiya Residence Inn" has handled over 50 facilities in Kyoto city, you can find a machiya house that best fits into your taste and travel plan, and enjoy self-catering by using provided appliances freely.

You can make a reservation mainly on the WEB site, and check in at the counter near Kyoto Station. (Luggage storage and delivery also available)This will allow you to spend your time very efficiently. Also, if you need an explanation about the facility, staff will visit the machiya house. We will introduce machiya accommodations recommended by feature, as follows.

Masarigusa

Masarigusa

"Masarigusa" was built in the Meiji era and remodeled from the Kyo-machiya which has kept watching Kyoto for over 100 years. While making guests feel techniques of old craft men at many places in the building, including paper-sliding doors using Kyo-karakami paper, tatami, shoji, and earth wall, contemporary comfort has been incorporated. Accordingly, it is a modern and relaxing space for us living in the present time. It is about a ten-minute walk to Gion, Ponto-cho, and Nishiki Market, etc. Kyoto Imperial Palace, Heian Jingu and Yasaka Jinja (shinto shrine) are within 15-minute walk.
