We stayed in several beautiful hotels so far, but this was the best place we kept talking about afterwards. The location is extraordinary. During the day, Higashi Chaya is one of Kanazawa’s most visited areas, but early in the morning and after the crowds leave, it becomes quiet and almost completely different. Being able to step outside our own machiya and experience the district at those hours felt incredibly special. The house itself is beautifully considered. It still feels unmistakably like an old Kanazawa machiya, yet everything is refined, comfortable and contemporary. The craftsmanship and artworks throughout the house never felt like decoration for a hotel — they felt naturally part of the space. Having the entire house to ourselves also gave the stay a level of privacy that we really appreciated. The beds were very comfortable, everything was spotless, and check-in was effortless. Preparing matcha in the house in the evening was one of those small experiences that made the stay feel completely different from a conventional hotel. If you are coming to Kanazawa, I would strongly recommend staying here rather than simply visiting Higashi Chaya during the day. For us, the house and the neighborhood became one of the highlights of Kanazawa itself.

Staying in Higashi Chaya was unlike simply visiting a historic neighborhood. For a little while, it felt as though we were actually living inside a piece of Kanazawa’s history, not just looking at it from the outside. The machiya itself made that feeling even more special. We had the entire house to ourselves, and the original wood and traditional character were beautifully balanced with a calm, contemporary design. The house was beautifully kept and very comfortable, with local art and craftsmanship thoughtfully integrated throughout the space. Self check-in was simple, and whenever we needed anything, the team was easy to reach online and very helpful. One of our favorite experiences was making matcha ourselves. The traditional tea utensils were beautiful, and an easy-to-follow guide was provided, so even as beginners we could enjoy it at our own pace. Preparing tea together in the quiet machiya became one of those small moments that stayed with us after the trip. Very few places have made us feel so connected to the destination itself. Staying here didn’t just give us somewhere beautiful to sleep, it changed the way we experienced Kanazawa. We would happily return.
