Kikunoya

Stays to Enjoy Kazuemachi

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.
