For guests from abroad
Gujo-hachiman guesthouse Machiyado came to life as an accommodation facility, the idea was born from making effective use of an empty house through renovation, and creating a space for exchange. We would like our guests to get a taste of the daily life in Gujo-hachiman while enjoying our guesthouse as the base for traveling and information exchange.
In Gujo-hachiman, the number of foreign visitors is increasing year by year, however, foreign tourist information is still lacking and we are trying our best to improve and provide for their needs.
We try our best to make guests feel comfortable staying at Machiyado by dissolving language barrier and nationality differences, but please excuse us for any inconveniences caused because of our lack of English information and due to our guest house being run by one person only.
Please read our guide carefully before you make reservation. If you agree with our guide, please make your reservation through our reservation form below.
Thank you so much.
