Murataya

A real ryokan experience, nice tatami room, shared Japanese hot bath which was really relaxing after a long day of walking. It will give you a taste of traditional Japan. The owner, Yuichi, is also really nice. Keep an eye out for the phone system at the reception which is more then 70 years old.

Fabulous introduction to living in a Japanese way. 4 of us shared a room - which might be a challenge but there are smaller rooms. The baths are simply wonderfully hot. Have the Japanese breakfast rather than the European. It is spectacularly clean. Our room opened onto a small but beautiful Japanese garden.

We stayed here for our family's spring vacation trip to Kanazawa. Murataya is a delightful traditional ryokan located in a quiet corner near the nightlife district. The inn is old-style with cozy wood construction with rooms surrounding a relaxing central garden. In fact, the room they gave us opens out to the garden -- a pleasant surprise. Some people may prefer to have a toilet and bath / shower in their guest room instead of shared facilities like at Murataya, but for the price and the convenient location, we were extremely pleased. Plus there were nice touches like fresh ikebana flowers displayed throughout the inn. And best of all, when we headed out to find a restaurant for dinner, the owner ran to catch up with us and personally escorted us to places popular with the locals -- Such great service! We will definitely be back!

Quel accueil. Charmants hôtes aux petits soins. Il pleuvait énormément à notre arrivée. On a séché nos bagages et nos impers, mis nos chaussures sur un séchoir et servi un bon thé. Les chambres sont bien aménagées et très confortables. Le partage des toilettes, douches et bain n’a causé aucun problème. L’endroit est très calme mais à proximité de tout et facile d’accès. Nos hôtes se débrouillent très bien en anglais. Un merci particulier au gentil jeune homme qui m’a accompagné au dépôt des bagages « takkyubin »

Séjour en famille avec des enfants jeunes et adolescents. Tout le monde a apprécié cet hôtel très japonais avec la chambre en tatamis. Très bien situé avec commerces, bus et restaurants à proximité. À Kanazawa tout peut se faire a pied. Le personnel de l’hôtel est au petit soin. Super séjour.
