The staff was very friendly and attentive. It was a charming traditional experience. The food was tasty, traditional Japanese cuisine, and so convenient not to have to worry about where to go for breakfast and dinner. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Nice clean room, not much of view though (just the station). Location is close to the station, very convenient. It's still in walking distance to chaya district and the market.

It’s a different experience than staying in a western type hotel. The hotel provides superb attention to detail and customer service. Will be staying again in this hotel if coming back to Kanazawa.

The room was an excellent size and very clean! Sleeping on the tatamis was the best nights sleep we’ve had so far in Japan! The kaiseki dinner and breakfast weren’t for us but that’s not to say that they weren’t lovely, it just wouldn’t be our first choice for a meal. We are glad we tried them though! The property is very beautiful and they gave you the sukamis to wear for the meals which was lovely and added to the atmosphere very nicely! And the staff were extremely helpful and friendly!

The hotel is very close to Kanazawa Station and has a good location to reach tourist attractions quickly.
One of our family members arrived late due to a flight cancellation, but Mr. Ueno made a very nice suggestion and the whole family was able to have dinner together.
The entire hotel staff was very hospitable.
I would like to thank Mr. Ueno and stay there again!

The room came with dinner and breakfast- both were delicious feasts with a variety of dishes. They did forget one of my preferences for foods, though. The baths are well maintained, but the building is an older style. The staff were all so helpful. A great introduction to the ryokan!

What a great time we had at Kanazawa Chaya. My family of 5 stayed here for three nights half-board following our stay in Tokyo. This place is out of the world. I cannot describe how attentive the staff are at this Ryokan hotel. My mother is approaching her 80s and I mentioned to them in email ahead of time that my mother prefers softer food and they delivered. I was worried that the three breakfast and three dinner would be repetitive, but much to my surprise, the Kaiseki meals were so meticulously planned and with fresh ingredients. We cannot have a better time in Kanazawa. It's also so close to the train station, making visiting the rest of the city a breeze. The most important thing of all is that the staff were so friendly and welcoming, we were completely spoiled during our stay.
