Traditional Japanese house with traditional Japanese dinner included. Gifts on arrival were an unexpected surprise Beautiful Garden with large pond.

This place is absolutely stunning! Beautiful decoration and screens, lovely garden to look onto, and a cozy bathtub. The host was extremely helpful and picked us up at the station. The location is fantastic. If you would like to enjoy a truly Japanese stay -- book this immediately!

Stayed one night at Machiya Kenroku to break the journey from Takayama to Osaka. It was a nice and pleasant stay at Kanazawa. Kanazawa deserves a visit for her Omicho Ichiba market, castle and Kenroku-en garden. We managed to end the evening with a walk through the Geisha district. Hitty’s hospitality was warm, sincere and genuine. Kanazawa was cold and wet when we visited and he heated up the place prior our arrival. It was easy to communicate with him via WhatsApp. As what many travellers mentioned, he would give a brief history of the house and it felt like a learning journey through Japan’s history on Samurais. This additional personal touch allowed us to know and understand Japan’s history much more! There’s a lot of heart and care put into the house. Every detail was looked into. Bedding was comfortable and warm. This is a traditional house so there is a need to understand that steps up to the bedroom are steep. Japanese houses are small and petite. So movement has to be small and not loud. Not an issue for us but we had to remind the teenagers to be “gentler” with the wooden sliders. What touched us most was Hitty’s graciousness. We broke one of the glasses (we felt so bad about this) and offered to pay for it. Hitty replied with a Japanese proverb, “Something with a form will break someday." And he added, “On the other hand, the memories of your trip and your family will not be destroyed. Have a nice trip 😄”. Once again, we have been recipients of Japanese hospitality, kindness and warmth with our stay here. Thank you Hitty and we wish you well and we look forward to you visiting our country soon!

The owner provided a complimentary pick-up at Kanazawa Station for my family of 6 pax with 7 luggages. The location was within 5 mins walk to a convenient family mart, within 10-15 walk to the Castle, Kenrɓokuen Garden and Higashi Chaya District. Oh, and we all loved the heated floors, especially for the icy weather. Yakuta was provided too. There's PlayStation too for the kids,

Staying in a machiya townhouse is an experience in itself. The place was clean and well maintained, too. Bath with a window onto a small garden was a highlight. The futons on the tatami and thin pillows make for a hard sleeping surface, but that is what you're signing up for - the traditional experience.

An entire traditional townhouse is next to a Ryokan one of the things I think someone should have lived in on a Japan visit. It is close to the samurai district which has many beautiful old buildings and reasonably close to Kanazawa‘s fish market. If you have the rare opportunity to have a full kitchen on vacation you should take advantage of that. A lot of these houses disappear every year because they are very expensive to maintain and repair so I ask everyone to please give machias like Kaga House your business. I recommend staying longer than one night. Just sleeping there wastes the potential of the house.

Great place to stay to experience a traditional house. Great communication from the owner. Please expect steep stairs to get the bedrooms because that is how the houses are built.
