About Kyomachiya Ryokan Sakura Urushitei
Sakura Urushitei operates from a restored machiya townhouse on Kichimonjicho street in Shimogyo-ku, a residential ward where lacquerware wholesalers once lined the alleys between Shijo and Gojo. The address places guests roughly 650m southwest of Nishiki Market and within a ten-minute walk of Nijo Castle's eastern gate — practical for covering central Kyoto on foot without the crowds of Gion-side accommodation.
The ryokan format means tatami-style rooms, yukata robes, and slippers as standard, paired with a hot tub, garden terrace, and an in-house bar — an unusual combination that allows evenings to run longer than a traditional inn typically permits. Daily housekeeping, a 24-hour desk, and a tour concierge round out services that explain the 9.0 rating across more than 5,000 reviews.
