This is a very charming inn, clean and tidy. I really enjoyed the friendly and warm service from the owners, whom I believe are family. They greeted me when I came in & wished me well when I would leave. They always asked if I needed anything and were so helpful. I really enjoyed it and would return again.

A fantastic stay in this classic old ryoken! Very atmospheric and charming, well located for easy walk to the main attractions in town. The staff were exceptionally helpful and attentive, with good English to compensate for our inadequate Japanese, and my family loved our stay - not least the onsen hot baths.

This beautiful Ryokan is well situated in the middle of the central shopping area, with accessible bus service to the train station and local sites. The facility is immaculate and charming with a lovely garden and very helpful and kind staff. Bonus is a private Japanese style bath. Highly recommended.

Such kind and friendly staff!! The property itself is beyond charming! Kanazawa is a beautiful city and my favorite place on my trip. I will certainly be back and will return to this ryokan. My only regret is not staying for more time!!!

It was like staying in a museum, for both good and bad. Shared bathrooms the bad. Great Location, great staff, great traditional breakfast

The quality and standing of the property confirm the 2-star categorisation.
However, while the experience was nice, the final evaluation was given by their strict policy on storing the luagages after 3pm. They wanted to charge us, which was not a big problem, but they had no standard tarif, hence we ended up into a negotiation debate.

This Ryokan is a solo traveller friendly. They have room to cater one person. The owners are very nice and accommodating. They will explain to you everything about the facilities in the Ryokan. I used hands free travel service in Kanazawa station and upon check in my luggage is already in my room. Toilets and Baths are shared and is not an issue actually as never experienced them being crowded even though the Ryokan seems fully booked. Surely will book again when I return to Kanazawa.

My boyfriend and I stayed here for two nights and enjoyed it very much.
The staff was very kind and welcoming to us. Very hospitable. You must change into indoor slippers provided by the inn. Upon checking in, I noticed one of the elderly staff cleaning my luggage wheels which I thought was very nice of him to do so as I’ve been to a different inn in Japan where visitors were told to clean their luggage wheels themselves. I would’ve been more than happy to clean them myself but truly appreciated the hospital gesture.
We adored the garden view from our room and we had lots of space! Our futon beds were set up for us upon entering and they were the most comfortable futons ever!!! I wish I could’ve napped in them if my time in Japan wasn’t so crucial spent awake 😅. My boyfriend also commented that their floor mattress were softer than the mattresses we’ve slept on in hotels across Japan.
Showers and toilet rooms are shared. The sink to wash hands or toothbrush is lowkey in the lobby facing the kitchen entrance which is a bit of an awkward spot. I felt like everyone can see me when I wanted to brush my teeth. That was pretty much the only downer during our experience.
I enjoyed the homey community feel of this ryokan though as both guests and staff would always be walking around. Keep in mind, walls between rooms are thin and we could hear our neighbour room talking but we didn’t mind. Maybe something to keep in mind for others!
