I accidentally left an item behind in my Room, but the staff responded quickly and courteously. It was a huge help.

I stayed here on a business trip and had a very comfortable stay. The room was simple yet functional, with calming lighting and colors that made it easy to relax. It’s also close to Shinsaibashi Station, and there are plenty of restaurants nearby, so the location is very convenient. The staff were polite and friendly, and their service was pleasant throughout. I’d like to stay here again.

We were blessed with great weather, and the view from our Room and the starry night sky were truly wonderful. The Onsen was also a sulfur-rich milky hot spring that we love, incredibly relaxing, and made for a very luxurious stay. Every dish was a carefully crafted creative kaiseki meal prepared for us, and it was delicious. We would love to visit again if we have the chance.

I had the pleasure of revisiting the enchanting Sasayuri-an. After an unforgettable experience at "Kozuno," this time I stayed in another building, "Zao." About a month ago, I was fortunate to connect with Sasayuri-an and was deeply touched by the warmth of the owners. Since then, I eagerly anticipated my return. My expectations were high due to my previous wonderful stay, but this visit exceeded them in every way. The moment we stepped inside, everyone let out a gasp of awe—it felt like stepping into another world. This 150-year-old traditional thatched-roof house is a perfect blend of historical beauty and modern comfort, truly a hidden gem. The stunning terraced rice fields visible through the windows and the star-filled night sky created an extraordinary atmosphere. The space is both majestic and refined yet evokes a nostalgic sense of comfort. Above all, the exceptional hospitality from the owners provided deep relaxation. The owner's passion for detail is evident everywhere—from beams relocated from a 400-year-old structure to speakers once used by Ryuichi Sakamoto—making every conversation with him fascinating and inspiring. Despite visiting in February's cold weather, thoughtful touches like fireplaces, discreetly placed air conditioners that preserve aesthetic harmony, and oil heaters along hallways ensured warmth throughout this spacious accommodation. The owner also practices as a Yamabushi (mountain ascetic) alongside managing his business. During our stay, we had rare opportunities to experience waterfall meditation and fire rituals under his guidance while enjoying stories about Shugendo around an irori hearth—a truly memorable experience! Evenings were spent chatting by irori flames or soaking in herbal baths within cypress tubs to unwind completely; mornings began with delicious coffee paired with breathtaking views of Japan’s timeless rural landscape—a blissful retreat indeed. Sasayuri-an offers an unparalleled escape from urban chaos where both mind and body can rejuvenate fully—a genuinely special place worth cherishing forever! Although we rarely revisit accommodations multiple times ourselves here feels different; it’s somewhere precious enough always wanting return alongside loved ones again someday soon! With facilities such as pizza ovens BBQ setups campfire areas ready springtime glamping plans already excite us looking forward next visit ahead!

It felt like home in a way, being able to spend time with the whole family, talk, and take care of each other. However, the spacious bath with a jacuzzi experience, the warm floor heating, and the beautiful white wood Japanese-style room were extraordinary happy experiences. There is also a shopping street within walking distance where you can shop for groceries, and the vegetarian breakfast was delicious. The concierge was really kind and helpful; I highly recommend this wonderful Room! Thank you very much for all your help!

Since it had been a while since my last visit to Kanazawa, I wanted to stay at a whole house rental property and found Kikunoya. It was very nice. The property is a renovated machiya, and while I usually prefer futons over beds for the traditional atmosphere, the bed at Kikunoya matched the room so well, and I was tired, so I used the bed throughout my stay. The bed itself was very comfortable, and I liked it, but the location of the room with the bed was in a position where outside noise was quite noticeable, so guests should be aware of that. However, the noise was not so bothersome that I continued using the bed for two nights. That said, next time I stay at Kikunoya, I might try sleeping in the back room with a futon. What surprised me at Kikunoya was the abundance of tableware. There were even lacquered trays in the drawers of the box stairs, and I was truly amazed by the number of glasses available, enough to host a party. Additionally, all the tableware you might want is available, so you can easily procure delicious side dishes (Western or Japanese) from the Omi market, quickly prepare rice and soup, and enjoy a leisurely meal at the property with local sake from a liquor store in Kanazawa. I plan to do that next time. It was an enjoyable stay. Thank you very much.

A quiet accommodation surrounded by Fukugi trees with the sea right in front. It is within walking distance to Churaumi Aquarium along the seaside, where you can enjoy a morning dolphin show. There are also shops nearby, making it enjoyable to go out for drinks at night.

It felt like living in Kyoto, not in a concrete Hotel, but experiencing a Kyoto home. The food delivery was efficient, and we could enjoy it at a good timing. The Room was clean and beautiful, and the service was kind and courteous, which I thought was very good.
