Maki No Oto Kanazawa was simply the best! We stayed at some very large, expensive hotels during our Japan vacation but I would honestly rate this hotel as the best experience we had on our vacation. Yama and Masayo were delightful hosts. We loved being the Geisha District. It was a very unique experience. The hotel itself was lovely...the attention to the smallest detail was very impressive. If you stay you MUST have the dinner offered in the hotel. It was one of the best meals we had during the trip. Breakfast was also charming. Thank you again for a truly memorable and unique experience! I

There was honestly nothing we didn't like! Perfect place to stay!

The room was beautifully furnished and really lovely, with a view of the garden. Architecturally gorgeous. Dinner and breakfasts were delicious and perfectly executed. More importantly the overall service was professional, gracious and attentive without being obtrusive. This was the most memorable point of our trip. On our next trip to Japan we will definitely check out it’s sister location in Toyama.

Nothing, this stay was perfect!

The staff could not do enough to make sure I was okay, they were so helpful even though I only stayed for one night. I felt very well looked after especially at breakfast. Breakfast was fantastic, it felt very personalised and in serene surroundings. The ryokan is very aesthetically pleasing and close to main sights.

The bed was not comfortable at all and I did not sleep well. There was also a funny smell and the fan which I had to keep on, as it was hot in the room was quite noisy.

Perfect location-- walkable to other points of interest. The property was beautiful and serene. Our room was very comfortable and large, and very quiet with a garden view. The bed and sheets were amazing. The staff was warm, friendly and helpful with anything we needed. Breakfast on the premises was delicious. We will be returning!

Nothing.

Great location, excellent service, spacious and well appointed room.

Would have preferred Japanese style breakfast instead of continental

Right in the centre of Kanazawa perfect location The evening food was amazing, on a par with Michelin level food, but a prewarning for Western travellers it’s quite traditional Japanese cusisine, as well as the breakfast in the morning.

the room was a bit small

Outstanding experience - from welcome, to lovely well designed immaculate and comfortable rooms, and the truly outstanding dinner where 5 kitchen staff cooked for us three. Views in the small garden, surroundings and whole area are deeply enjoyable. We only stayed one night...too short, 2-3 nights in Kanazawa is better

Nothing....

great boutique Ryokan in Kanazawa old town really comfortable, with very attentive staff they thought about everything with highest quality to every detail Higashi Room on second floor with beautiful view to garden with blossoming cherry tree dinner was a real treat- Michelin level restaurant

Perfect location, beautiful room, restaurant, and meals and exceptional staff. Especially, Ryoma Sakai who was the best host we had all trip in Japan.

Slightly on the pricey side if you do all meals.

We loved everything about Maki No Oto!! The owners were helpful and very sweet, the room was spotless and comfortable and the food was presented and prepared perfectly!! We would definitely stay there again!

Nothing!
