Exceptionnel
Pros:

La disponibilité du propriétaire, les explications, conseilles. Les équipements de la chambre, notamment le fait d'avoir une machine a laver le linge dans la chambre. Les nombreux restaurants à moins de 10 minutes a pied. Le calme total de l'hôtel.

Cons:

Rien à dire

Stay. Here. My favourite Booking.com booking ever.
Pros:

Exceptional place to stay. Every detail is perfect, beautiful design and decor, spacious, comfortable and well-appointed. Host was exceptionally friendly and kind, and provided clear explanations and helpful sightseeing advice. Easy walk from train station. Quiet location.

Pros:

The room has equipped with a washing machine, detergent and softener, and the bathroom is able to dry clothes.
The neat design of the Japanese window softens the sunlight while remaining its brightness.

Cons:

The fact that it is unable to check in after 8pm and the response on booking.com takes more time than expected.
No seats or furnitures were placed at the little courtyard, the space is kind of just a decoration.
No parking space available and the nearest one would need at least a 5 mins walk, might not be very friendly with tourists with a big luggage.

Cons:

　とても清潔で、ツインベッドの部屋だったのですが、玄関で靴を脱いで入るタイプだったし畳の部分もあり、とてもくつろげました。

　２名で宿泊しましたが、部屋の広さもちょうど良く、備品なども必要なものが無駄なく配置されていました。

　洗濯機があり浴室乾燥もあったので、洗濯できたのも大変便利でした。洗剤や衣類ネット、洗濯ハンガーまで準備されていたので助かりました。

　荷物預かりは10時半からでしたが、予定よりだいぶ早く荷物を預けに行ってしまいとても迷惑かけました。しかし、快く対応してもらえました。　

　観光案内もして下さり行くつもりがなかった武家屋敷のところにも足を運ぶことができて、そこがこの旅で一番行って良かったと思える場所になりました。ありがとうございました。

　1ついえば、ちょっと分かりにくい場所だったのがマイナスでしょうか。

Family rooms with a blend of western and Japanese. Excellent hospitality!
Pros:

Our host was amazing! Extremely hospitable and easy to talk to. He gave us various recommendations to explore within Kanazawa. Our room was cozy and comfortable for two people. I loved the tatami mat section of the room as well. I wish we stayed here longer!

Cons:

We had booked the Superior Family Room for our overnight stay, but I wish we went with the Deluxe Family Room instead! Access to a washing machine being the main reason for this decision. If we had spent more time in Kanazawa, we would have stayed here for 2 or 3 nights in the Deluxe Family Room!

Pros:

Simply a spectacular place to stay in Kanazawa. It's very small, maybe five rooms, but the rooms we stayed in were quite spacious and perfectly designed. All the lovely small touches you'd expect at a high-quality Japanese hotel (welcome gift, toiletries, yukata), comfy beds, and a truly powerful shower. The one man on staff was a delight and was very happy to give us suggestions on where to go and what to do, and spoke perfect English.

Best of all, for the price we paid, this was a great deal. In Tokyo or Kyoto these rooms would easily be twice the price if not more. Easy walking distance from the train, and to the main sights as well. Highly recommend.

Exquisite property and handy set up. Felt slightly away from the action for us but that could be a good thing for others
Pros:

Absolutely beautifully designed and spacious. Handy laundry and bathroom turns into dry room

Cons:

A bit faraway from everything. Staff are not on property so they feel a little remote but didn’t really matter

Mycket bra
Pros:

Frukost serverades inte men 2 minuter bort låg ett litet café, Angela, där man kunde äta frukost, mycket trevligt litet cafe/restaurang

Cons:

Inget, det var ett mycket trevligt litet hotell 10 minuters gångväg från stationen i ett långt område vid floden. Tog 15 minuter att gå längst floden till geisha distriktet
