We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this place. The area is stunning and the accommodation is spacious and cozy, and had everything we needed. It was the highlight of our honeymoon trip to stay in this ryokan. We were also able to choose between Japanese and European style breakfast in the morning which was nice. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay there longer. Thank you :)

The Japanese breakfast was fantastic. The western breakfast was subpar in comparison. I would have loved to have had some homemade jam with my bread. Usually western breakfast does not need olive oil with their bread. Olive oil for dipping is more of a lunch/dinner option.

If we could put a 20/10 we will do it. The place is incredible, we wanted to be a little further away from the center to be quieter, you have 3 bus to go to Kanazawa station. The staff is so nice especially the lady who looked after customers and lent us a shoe dryer on a very rainy day, all the staff was helpful when we lost a phone and we found it back. The traditional Japanese room was magnificent, a sweetness leave in the room every day, very clean, the onset very quiet to, the best breakfast of our trip. Thank you so much for this lovely stay.

Ten years ago we stayed in Sumiyoshiya and enjoyed our stay. It was as we remembered a beautiful and enjoyable place. Breakfast was good as we remembered - presentation, variety and taste were perfect. Waka Okami is the Okami now - we did not see Oh Okami this time, apparently, she no longer help run the Ryokan now. The place is still going strong after more than 350 years.

Hattie

There are not enough superlatives to describe the exceptional stay that we had at Asadaya. The service was out of this world - every single interaction with the wonderful staff was characterised by the utmost care and attention. The food was sensational - each dinner (kaiseki) course was a work of art, both visually and in terms of taste. We also enjoyed delicious Japanese breakfasts each morning (there is a western option available), and matcha and Japanese sweets before dinner. The rooms are traditional, extremely calm, and spacious - with a private garden. There's also an onsen where you can book a slot. And Kanazawa is a wonderful place to explore. We have not stopped thinking about this place since we left and I honestly cannot recommend it enough. We cannot wait to come back!

    Great traditional accommodation (Ryokan) with private Onsen. Very spacious rooms with authentic furniture including tatami mats. Coffee, drinks and snacks are for free. The location ist perfect for visiting the beautiful Kenroku-en Garden, the nearby castle or the traditional Geisha quarter (Higashi chaya). The Kanazawa station is approx. 25 minutes away (walking distance) and 10 minutes by taxi.

    I really recommend staying in this ryokan. Staff is doing everything to make you feel like home. Walking distance to main attractions in the city. You can take a bus or walk to the station for about 20 minutes. Bathing in onsen and sleeping on futon was a unique experience. Breakfast was very delicious, everything was fresh.

    Great location, close to the Geisha Village, Castle and a 20 minute walk from many bars and restaurants. The ryokan was lovely and traditional, I loved the Yukata's, the onsen which we were able to use privately, the green tea in our rooms and the tatami mats and futon set up. Bungo and his mother were very kind, friendly and attentive. If you're looking for a traditional experience at a reasonable price, then I would recommend this ryokan.

    Very beautiful, typical japanese ryokan, huge room with beautiful tatami and view on internal garden. The landlady is very welcoming, proactive and nice. The room had a WC and basin; the internal onsen (common bath) was very confortable, spacious and clean, with a typical hot tub. The position is very central and quiet. An excellent stay that surpassed our expectations

    Wonderful Ryokan experience. Bungo was extremely helpful and explained the best sights in Kanazawa for us to visit. The room was large with a tatami floor and looked onto a beautiful garden. Yukatas were provided for walking around the Ryokan. Clean facilities and some amenities provided. The baths were able to be used by myself and my husband privately. It was about 25 minutes walk from the station and very close to Kanazawa castle gardens.

    The whole Ryokan experience, sleeping on a futon over a tatame and including Onsen bath. It was exactly what we were looking for. It was an amazing experience for the whole family. And the hosts don’t measure efforts to make you feel welcome.

    fantastic family run ryokan (traditional japanese inn), with a shared onsen, outstanding food, and a traditional room with tatami floors, paper wall deco and clothes to wear during the stay (not mandatory of course). The manager is very kind and paying close attention to details. We had a delicious dinner in the room (highly recommended!!) prepared by the family, with salmon, tempura, sashimi, a large prawn, miso soup, rice, fruits, and may small nipples - it's the best dinner experience we had in Japan.
