An interesting traditional Japanese cultural experience. Beautiful art and gardens.

このお宿自体がもう素敵すぎていい旅行になりました お料理も大変美味しくいただきました

しいていうならば私が泊まった部屋のおトイレが水が溜まるまで流せないこと。

Guest review

10.0

- Ryokan fantastico, 20 minuti fuori Kanazawa, immerso nella natura. Rispetto ad uno in città, questo dà molto più la sensazione di essere in un'altra dimensione - Struttura tipica, grande e confortevole - stanza non enorme, ma molto confortevole. Bagno privato molto comodo - cena kayseri strepitosa, un sacco di portate, tutto di grandissima qualità - onsen molto bello: tre vasche calde (una fuori) e una fredda - trattamento complessivo premium: kimono, pasti, servizi

- forse la cena un po' troppo veloce: hanno portato tutte le portate molto velocemente. Magari un pochino di calma in più sarebbe stata l'ideale
