栗津温泉 法师 (Hoshi)

The Room was spacious, easy to use, and clean, making for a very comfortable stay. I was traveling home, so it helped me recover from the fatigue. The Room amenities were minimal. I thought it would be nice to have cotton pads or cotton swabs, but they weren’t really necessary. The meals weren’t flashy, but they were pleasantly tasty. It was a great-value stay. Thank you very much.

I stayed here on my way back from a business trip.They kindly upgraded me to a slightly larger Room than the one I had reserved, and I was able to relax and unwind.What left the strongest impression at this Accommodation was its history. As you walk through the building, you’ll find various exhibits and furnishings that evoke Kaga’s past, and the building itself bears the marks of many years. The phrase “the oldest Accommodation in Hokuriku” felt not like a mere title, but something you can truly experience firsthand.Of course, given how historic this Accommodation is, there are parts of the interior that feel old. This is not an Accommodation for those seeking cutting-edge Facilities or the polished atmosphere of a modern luxury Ryokan. However, I believe there is unique value here in experiencing that long history—including its age.Dinner was an excellent Kaga kaiseki meal. They served each dish one by one while carefully matching our pace, and everything was delicious—I could enjoy it slowly and comfortably.Just as memorable as the food was a young male staff member who took care of my meal. Not only were his explanations clear, but our conversation was genuinely enjoyable; even though I was dining alone, it became a very pleasant evening. It wasn’t formal or scripted service—his natural warmth made all the difference.The next morning, at departure, the proprietress personally saw me off and offered kind words. It reminded me that this long-established Ryokan still values human connection.Enjoying Kaga’s history, its cuisine—and above all, people’s warmth—may be the best way to appreciate this Accommodation.A night spent at Hokuriku’s oldest Accommodation: I left feeling refreshed by the proprietress’s warm words. It was a stay I won’t forget.
