A hidden gem in Japan!
Reviewed By sebastiandefeoFrom the beautiful nature surrounding the hotel to the calm and warm staff that will always help you with a smile, everything about this place is relaxing. The room is big, comfortable, and quiet. Traditional japanese style (which I found is better for my back). The onsen is big and has many amenities, with hot termal water that comes straight out of the mountains. And the restaurant is simply something out of a movie. Every single piece on their menu is a work of art. From sushi to barbecued fish, tofu and wild boar. So many delicious things to chose from. Having dinner or breakfast there you will feel in another time in history. You will exit this hotel happier and more relaxed.

Nice Onsen Baths
Reviewed By Journey706434Two couples enjoyed staying in this nice Orix Hotel and Resort, which would be excellent for couples with children to enjoy and even better during the summer months since there is an outside swimming area. We stayed during the Golden Week, and there was social distancing and sanitation measures being practiced. We had a room with beds which was located a little bit of a walking distance from the main dining room, but it was a lovely room with its own private bath, too.

At Kagaya hotel, all the elegance and beauty of Japan surronds you. The lovely indoor and outdoor gardens offer tranquility all year round.The hotel is graced with a multi-million dollar collection of traditional Japanese artwork. Nothing can compare with the serene beauty of the view overlooking Nanao bay, a masterpiece in itself. The Kagaya provides you with an opportunity to relax and experience the best of Japan.
A Uniquely Japanese Experience
Reviewed By Sangetsu03My wife wanted to take her mother somewhere special to celebrate her birthday, and decided that the Kagaya would be a great place. The Kagaya is located in Ishikawa prefecture, which is well off the beaten path for non-Japanese, which makes it different from those hotels in the larger cities which nowadays are often full of foreign tourists. There are numerous ways to access the Kagaya, you can get there by air and/or train, the hotel offers bus transportation to and from the train station. We decided to come by car from Tokyo, which took around 6 hours. The Kagaya is located in Ishikawa prefecture in the Wakaru area, which has been a hot spring resort area since the first hotels were built in the area in the 19th century. There are several of these hotels still in operation in the area, but the Kagaya is the largest and most highly rated. The Wakaru area has been in decline since the economic collapse in the early 90's, and was hit rather hard by the financial crisis in 2010, but the natural beauty of the area, and the hot springs have continued to draw visitors from around Japan, and, should it become better known, to visitors from around the world. The hotel is an impressive structure with two towers containing numerous traditional Japanese rooms. These are available in various types and sizes, and many offer amazing views of the bay. The rooms are traditional, with tatami floors, cedar walls and ceilings, and some have both the low and standard tables for meals. The rooms are fully equipped with the usual amenities. The rest of the hotel features all the things you find in a large Ryokan resort, there are lots of stores and shops, selling food, drinks, snacks, souvenirs, and even high quality traditional Japanese goods. The architecture and design are spectacular, and give you an idea of what Japan was like at its economic height. Being a Ryokan hotel, each room is assigned a maid/server, who cleans the room and serves the meals. The room rate includes dinner and breakfast, which are spectacular. Japan is a country which is famous for food, and the better Ryokan resorts offer the best of the best, served fresh, or even cooked in front of you in your room. The meals are beautiful to look at, and delicious to eat. Besides the food, the next big attraction are the hot springs, which are fed with water from natural underground sources. The water is rich in minerals, and is very therapeutic for things like sore muscles or skin problems. I used to scoff about the efficacy of hot spring water (onsen water), but have since found that it is very relaxing, and leaves the skin very soft. The Kagaya has the usual onset facilities, do a little research about public bath etiquette before venturing into the public onsen. If you feel a little self conscious about taking a bath with a room full of strangers, the hotel rooms have their own onsen water tubs, which are deep and roomy enough to relax. There are some parks and places you can visit on food in the area, you can find walking guides in the hotel lobby. There are a couple of nearby shrines which are interesting sightseeing spots. If you are adventurous, you can explore the abandoned Naoki Hotel, which is the rather spooky-looking building west of the Kagaya. But you don't really need to leave the hotel, there are numerous things to enjoy inside, including live entertainment in the evening. The hotel offers spa treatments, massages, there are several small restaurants and drinking places, not to mention a large lounge with a wonderful bay view. The garden outside offers a good place to stroll after a big meal, and you can see the machinery which supplies the hotel, local businesses, and even homes with hot spring water from underground. There are several outdoor hot springs in which you can soak your feet, or in the case of the hotter springs, boil eggs. I recommend the Kagaya hotel to people who want to experience what was (and is) popular with Showa-era Japanese, and which is a place not well known or often visited by non-Japanese touriss.

The perfect ryokan in Kanazawa
Reviewed By 4548ringWhen looking to stay in Kanazawa, one would be hard pressed to find a more perfect place than Sumiyoshiya. The location is great, as it is very close to both the Omi-Cho Market, and the Kanazawa Castle Park. We spent two nights at this ryokan and could not have been happier! Mie Sumi was the consumate hostess! When asked for extra water in the room, recommendations for a shushi restaurant, arranging for taxis, all was taken care of in a matter of minutes. She even provided us with the name and location of the where to find the wonderful tea sweets served in our room. The room (#2) was spacious and immaculate. The dinner (served in our room) was outstanding! Crab, grilled fish, sushimi, shrimp, and clear soup with clam were all delicious. We could not have asked for a more wonderful meal! While Kanazawa was a bit quiet (mid-June, Tues-Thurs) we found plenty to do around town, and will make a return visit in November. When we do, we plan to stay at Sumiyoshiya once again.

very cosy lodge
Reviewed By bunnimanVisited 1 week before golden week and it was quiet and peaceful. Price was included of 1 dinner and 1 breakfast and quality of food served was good. Room was basic with tatami, futons and a small towel for use at the onsen. Head up to 3rd floor on Murodo Plateau and look out for the small wooden signs. It is a 30-45 mins walk through snow, not recommended for families with young children or elder members. Highly recommended if you want to avoid crowds of tour groups at Murodo Station.

Impeccable service
Reviewed By HSholsWe spent two nights here and could not fault the service from the moment we arrived when our car was whisked away and valet parked to all of the delightful lotions, potions and traditional Japanese clothing provided in our room. We had a large room with beautiful tatami mats throughout - the smell is magical - and everything was scrupulously clean. The entire ‘superior’ room included an entrance hall with fridge and tea-making facilities and some storage, a large main traditional room where our meals were served, a sitting room with western chairs and huge windows out onto the river, a western style bedroom with two double beds, and by Japanese standards a very large bathroom area with two wash basins and even two toilets. The food was amazing/incredible and we were provided with lots of diversity over the four meals we had - one of us even sneaked an omelette and toast into breakfast on our last day just by a quick question to our server. We were helped with our luggage, provided with advice on how to deal with the Kurobe Gorge Train and all in all had a wonderful experience. The one downside is that this is not a very pretty place to stay, all the ryokans here are concrete monoliths which is not unusual in Japanese onsen towns. The town itself is quaint but the draw is definitely the gorge and the hot waters which are very well worth the visit.
