Everyone from the owner to staff were so nice and friendly. We came early (around 12:30pm) and asked if we could leave the luggages there, but the owner said since our room was ready we could just check in, he was so kind! The location was perfect, walking distance to all the top attractions, and all the meals and drink were top-notch, cant wait to be back!

Great authentic Japanese experience

We highly recommend Nakayasu ryokan. The staff is very attentive, and the traditional Japanese meals are excellent. Be sure to try the Japanese breakfast. One caveat: it helps to be a seafood lover and adventurous eater, as some of the dishes are unfamiliar to the western palate.

Very close to tourist attractions eg garden / castle, I guess 15min walk from train station, Japanese breakfast was really good there, they also provide a traditional Japanese dinner - you need to pre book this in I think 5 days in advance? The hotel is a little sad and loud bi as you would expect for price, staff are friendly and really try and help, the Onsen is not that exciting but again if you wanna spend a lot and go to a more upmarket one do that..I would stay again but would absolutely pre Oder the dinner as the breakfast was really good.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Extremely kind and attentive staff are what account for a higher rating than I would have otherwise given. However, having stayed the previous two nights in other ryokans, by comparison the room was quite small and though clean, a bit dingy and outdated. The meals were abundant, to say the least, but some of the seafood was of questionable freshness and there was a lot of jellied items or things with that sort of texture (and we're adventurous eaters). The onsen was unremarkable, but of course, a nice option to have, and nice also that tattoos are a nonisse. Very close to Kenroken Gardens and Kanazawa Castle Park, and not a long walk to Higashi Chaya.

Kind and welcoming staff showed us to our rooms and helped with shoes and umbrellas while it was raining, and provided hot tea in the room every day. Rooms are large and beautiful and perfectly maintained. The location is a fairly short walk to kanazawa’s gardens and castle, but the nearby restaurants are few. (We did not try the Ryokan’s breakfast or dinner because of special dietary restrictions.)

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We've stayed some Japanese style hotels, but this one was not as good as others. The toilet, bath sink, and shower/tub are not in your room but in three different locations at same or deferent level which is very inconvenient. You have to get dressed to go to any of these three at lobby. The room is very small also. In addition, the walls are so thin that you hear all the noises clearly. The only good thing is the hotel is clean.

Todella ystävällinen ja avulias henkilökunta, huikean kaunistaja taidolla laitettua paikallista ruokaa sekä aamiaisella että päivällisellä. Kannattaa todellakin valita puolihoito! Kävelymatka (ja kaunis reitti) keskeisiin nähtävyyksiin. Kannattaa huomata, että peseytyminen on ryokanin omassa onsenissa.

Première expérience de ryokan

À recommander pour les personnes voulant expérimenter un ryokan avec un petit budget. Je n'ai pas pris le dîner sur place mais le petit déjeuner japonais était excellent. Les bains sont séparés homme/femme, la seule critique que je pourrai faire est que l'eau du bain pourrait être légèrement plus chaude. Chambre très authentique avec futon, yukata, tatamis et chaise style japonaise. Du thé avec une friandise nous attendent dans la chambre à l'arrivée. Toilettes et lavabos en dehors des chambres, sur le palier. L'accueil maîtrise bien l'anglais.
