Stay, as though you were living,
in an old Japanese seaport
that still provides seafood
for Kyoto’s cuisine.
Obama, where Kyoto’s culture is deeply rooted and the historic
townscape remains.
We have renovated a traditional machiya townhouse and
turned it into an inn for rent.
While retaining the atmosphere of the old machiya architecture,
we have created a comfortable environment for our guests.
We welcome you to a space where you can experience Obama's
lifestyle and culture.

About Obama
Facing Wakasa Bay, Obama is the starting point of the Saba Kaido (mackerel road), an ancient highway by which seafood is transported to Kyoto. The townscape, with its traditional townhouses and storehouses, has been selected as a national Important Preservation District for Groups of Traditional Buildings, and the food, festivals, and various other aspects of culture are still alive today.
