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.

What a great experience. I only wish we could stay longer. A real Japanese experience. The staff is amazingly helpful. And it’s close to the train station.

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!

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!
