We had a wonderful stay at this guesthouse! Everything was clean and cozy, and the atmosphere was truly relaxing. Chiyo-san was incredibly hospitable and kind—she made us feel right at home. We would definitely love to come back!

My first tatami and futon experience, which was the start of my love for this way of sleeping. My room was very well decorated, I had little experience back then, but now I can confidently state it really represents the traditional side of Japan. This place is run by a very kind family, which really made me feel like I'm at home. Every amenity I needed was available. Breakfasts are available, and those are feast for both your eyes and stomach. You can also try local sake here, I recommend giving it a try. This place is localised further from castle grounds and Higashi Chaya but in a really calm, and climactic neighbourhood, which more than makes up for it.

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!

Right from the moment of arrival the staff were nice and welcoming, reflecting the cozy atmosphere of the hostel. It's location is excellent - at a quiet neighborhood right besides the kanzawa station, within a walking distance between all the tourist attractions and shopping streets. Albeit being a small house, the common area is packed with a lot of anemnities like free soft drinks, towels, kitchen, Manga selection (English and Japanese), washing machine, clean bathroom and shower, and information about kanazawa. The atmosphere at the hostel itself was nice with friendly people. Do note, this is a hostel. Small rooms (yet comfortable), shared facilities, shared common area, and do expect to hear people speaking in the public area in the evening.

    Very lovely guest house with a great host. Pleasant change to the usual choice of more or less soulless hotels if you want something more unique. I visited for a couple of days to see Kanazawa. Would definitely choose this accommodation again. Medium-duration walk to the city centre.

    The guesthouse has been beautifully restored, maintaining the period features, but including all the modern comforts. Great location, lovely host, beautiful garden. We will return again.

    Beautiful and quaint traditional style guesthouse. come here for a proper traditional Japanese stay experience. The host was lovely and they have created a traditional feel with modern renovations and comforts like air conditioning and bathroom facilities. Out of the busier downtown area but walkable (20-30 mins) or by bus.
