private rental Machiya inn.
KIMINOYA Gujo

location

Kiminoya is located in the Gujo Hachiman Kitamachi Traditional Buildings Preservation District—

On the west side of this street, you’ll find a row of townhouses built in a particularly unified architectural style.

At first glance, they appear to be two-story buildings from the street,

but in fact, they are three-story townhouses,

At our inn, the lowest level—called Shitaya—serves as a bathing area for guests.

A century-old townhouse built on former samurai land

Preserving its traditional architectural style and layout,

this warm and nostalgic townhouse—crafted from wood and earth—

invites a gentle breeze through its earthen-floor corridor,

soothing both body and soul.

Wrapped in a calming atmosphere that gently engages the senses,

we invite you to relax and unwind in the peaceful embrace of this traditional Machiya inn.

about KIMINOYA_Gujo

Our inn is a private rental, limited to one group per day.

Whether you’re traveling alone or with a group—

up to six guests including families or friends—

you can enjoy the space entirely to yourselves.

While we do not serve meals,

you can savor local cuisine in the nearby castle town,

or make use of the fully equipped kitchen

to enjoy breakfast on the terrace beyond the traditional earthen floor passage,

or even a barbecue in the courtyard.
