They say it's Japanese life in Kyoto, and we couldn’t agree more. A peaceful retreat awaits at Kyomachiya Ryokan Sakura Urushitei.

The hotel is a true masterpiece of traditional Japanese architecture and is situated on the historic grounds where Ryuan Hatsusegawa used to create Japanese craft lacquerware since 1792.

Kyomachiya Ryokan Sakura Urushitei offers a variety of room options, blending the best of Western and Japanese styles. Whether you prefer a traditional Maisonette with garden views or a tea-inspired Sukiya-style room, complete with an 8-mat tatami room, they have the perfect space for you. The Mingei-style room captures the essence of a Kyoto-style traditional house, while the Urushi Suite and Western Suite provide all the comforts of a double bed or twin rooms.

The staff are there for you every step of the way and can arrange a number of authentic local activities in and around the area. From calligraphy and flower arrangement workshops to the opportunity to don a traditional kimono or partake in a tea ceremony, they can curate a range of activities that will immerse you in Japanese culture. And let's not forget the sake tasting - a perfect way to unwind and indulge in the local flavours.

Conveniently located just a 5-minute stroll from Shijo station and a mere 10-minute walk to the vibrant downtown area of Kawaramachi, you'll have easy access to all that Kyoto has to offer.

Please note that parking is not available, but don't let that deter you from experiencing the beauty of Kyomachiya Ryokan Sakura Urushitei.
