Guest rooms feature tatami (woven-straw) flooring with traditional futon bedding. Each room has air conditioning and heating facilities. Toilet and bathroom facilities are shared.

what a beautiful place charming authentic and stylish in a true retro Japanese way. I absolutely loved Murataya from the Japanese breakfast to my cosy room, the wonderful onsen and the ever so helpful hosts. The location is spot on too. who cares that the toilets and showers are not en suite … the kind of people who appreciate authenticity and heritage will be happy to trade those for a lovely onsen and the house and facilities are immaculate clean. if I ever come back to Kanazawa I would definitely book again and recommend very highly. there is an AMAZING sushi place 2 mins walk away Ippei don’t miss it! freshest sushi you will ever eat!

    Lovely Japanese house, I enjoyed sleeping on the futon. The location was close to the Higashi Chaya district. Facilities are all modernised, bottles of shower products even provided so you can visit the local bathhouse. Clearly it has been designed with care. I would say this property is best to stay multiple nights in Kanazawa and explore at a relaxed pace.

    Wow this hotel is gorgeous and luxurious. They did a great job with the interior design and it was really unique: the pictures, the beautiful carpets, the garden outside. I was not ready for how gorgeous the hotel was. Rooms were wonderful, staff were polite and professional. Great location in the center of Kanazawa. I recommend it if you are planning a trip to Kanazawa.

    A stylish boutique hotel in a perfect location. Staff really lovely and couldn't do enough for you. On arrival the manager went through all the hotel information, which was helpful and informative. Bathroom facilities were great, with complimentary bath crystals, perfect after a long day walking. Convenient to have a free well-stocked minibar.
