Ishikawa Prefecture/Kanazawa YutouA Kanazawa accommodation with 7 rooms, offering in-room dining to savor the seasons. Awarded Michelin's "Top-Class Comfort."
Japanese Cuisine Sakaeya is an Onsen accommodation with only 7 rooms, nestled in the lush greenery of Yuwaku Onsen, affectionately known as "Kanazawa's Hidden Retreat." Surrounded by the beauty of nature through all four seasons, guests can enjoy delicate seasonal flavors served in-room while admiring the serene mountain wildflowers. Recognized for its hospitality and exquisite cuisine, it was awarded "Top-Class Comfort" in the Facility category of the 2016 Michelin Guide.
I stayed at this accommodation during my visit to Kanazawa. The meals were all truly delicious, with a refined taste that highlighted seasonal ingredients, leaving me deeply impressed. This small accommodation with only 7 rooms offered a very quiet and peaceful stay, and the staff's warm hospitality was exceptional. Its proximity to Kanazawa city and the tranquil surroundings allowed me to enjoy a relaxing time. I would love to visit again.

Introduction of the Accommodation

Room
Each Room is a refined space where seasonal flowers and traditional Japanese decor harmonize beautifully. Enjoy a tranquil moment away from the city's hustle and immerse yourself in the charm of your journey.

Carefully hand-picked wild vegetables, organic Kaga vegetables delivered from partner farms, and freshly caught fish from Kanazawa's port. The dishes at Sakaeya are adorned with the finest ingredients nurtured by abundant nature.

The hot spring water of Yuwaku is a blessing that has been slowly filtered through Tomuro stone and emerged after 100 years. It is colorless, tasteless, odorless, and finely textured, once selected as one of Japan's three famous hot springs.
