House is well located, close to central station (less than 10’ walking) and to the center of the city. Bedroom was big and bed very comfortable. Showers were big as well. Norms are set clear and understandable. The owner is very friendly and helpful and provided valuable suggestions such as trying Kaisen Don meal. Very much recommended!

I enjoyed my stay with the very friendly owners. Had a great meal and a nice evening together in the restaurant, meetings like this are part of what makes travelling great. Basic Japanese style room, but all perfectly clean. Great location and good value for money

Luca

From

Germany

I found the place great for exploring Kanazawa: you get an entire traditional Japanese house for yourself, in a quiet place despite being 20 minutes by foot from Kenroku-en garden and the castle, and at a very competitive price. It was extremely clean and I really enjoyed the atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Viveka

Amazing experience to stay in this beautiful old tea house, in the rooms where the geishas once entertained. We saw and used the narrow stairs that they made their scenic entrance by: which must have been quite difficult, in wooden shoes and beautiful but complicated dress and hairstyles! The stairs can be a bit difficult to manage even without it :-) We were exceptionally well taken care of by the young woman who I guess was an apprentice at the tea house, and lived under us but watched over us! When there was an eartquake (!) she immediatly checked if we were OK (which we were). And when I managed to forget my favourite dress :-( she sent it by post package to my daughter who lives in Japan. So caring and nice. And the place is positively beautiful.

This is a fantastic place. Really beautiful inside and great to have the whole house, including washing machine, to ourselves. Everything feels very high quality. The people that run it are lovely and very helpful. We loved this place and we loved Kanazawa!

A great choice for people who want to spend the night in a ryokan. Super clean, beautiful interior, definitely the largest space of all the places we stayed in Japan. Very nice host. We definitely recommend it.
