Yado Kiramachi

Kyoto, Japan

City Inn + Guest House
Worth Landing On

A small village hidden behind a busy Kyoto street. Yado Kiramachi brings together a row of restored machiya townhouses along a narrow stone lane, with lanterns, plantings and a garden between them. Inside, the rooms are traditional ryokan, with tatami, futon beds and a private outdoor cypress bath each, and family rooms suit groups. Shijo Station is a short walk and Nishiki Market not much further. Step off the lane and downtown Kyoto is right there.

What It Is

A small, traditional ryokan in a quiet alley in central Kyoto, with private outdoor cypress baths.

What It Is Not

A modern hotel. Futon beds, tatami floors, and steep stairs are part of the experience.

Worth Landing On

When an authentic ryokan experience in central Kyoto is what the trip is for.
