The081 Saiin: A Group-Friendly Kyo-Machiya Launching April 2026

The081 announces a new Kyo-machiya project in Saiin, Kyoto, set to launch in April 2026. Optimized for group stays of up to 9 guests, the house features two toilets and two showers (including a garden-view soaking tub). Integrated with w2go.jp bike rentals, it offers a seamless blend of traditional living and local exploration.

We are pleased to announce the commencement of our latest project in the Saiin area of Kyoto. This traditional Kyo-machiya is being meticulously renovated to serve the growing demand for high-capacity group stays, with an official launch scheduled for April 2026.

Key Features:

  • Capacity for Groups: Designed to comfortably accommodate up to 9 guests, making it an ideal choice for families and large travel groups.

  • Enhanced Facilities: To ensure a seamless stay, the property features two separate toilets and two showers, significantly reducing morning prep time for larger parties.

  • Garden Bath Experience: One of the shower rooms is equipped with a soaking tub overlooking a private courtyard garden, offering a moment of tranquility amidst the city.

Explore Kyoto on Two Wheels: Located in the authentic local neighborhood of Saiin, the house offers easy access to both Arashiyama and the city center. Guests can enhance their stay by renting bicycles through our dedicated brand, w2go.jp, to experience Kyoto like a local.
