Kinjohro

extra fee should inform in advance

This is a traditional Japanese hotel. Very different from what most western tourists accustomed to. No reception or check in. Very expensive. Rooms are large. There are signs of wear and tear everywhere. The traditional dinner is very expensive and literally inedible. Note: we are very familiar with Japanese cuisine but this was terrible. After not being able to eat anything during the dinner, we opted to Western style breakfast. Could not eat it too. Was terrible. There is no onsen/spa on premises. If you are coming from abroad and want authentic Japanese ryokan, think twice before coming to this one. This is my first negative review I've ever left, but I felt compelled to warn other fellow travelers.

We recently stayed at Kinjohro during our visit to Kanazawa. The staff were truly wonderful, incredibly courteous, attentive, and eager to help. Their hospitality was warm and genuine, and they were easily the highlight of our stay. Unfortunately, the property itself did not live up to the expectations set by the price point. The building feels quite worn, with threadbare carpets and bathrooms that could benefit from a much deeper cleaning and maintenance. We also woke up with multiple bug bites, which raised concerns for us about the overall cleanliness of the rooms. We were especially excited for the dining experience, but both dinner and breakfast were disappointing. The dinner lacked the depth of flavor we were expecting, and while the presentation was nice, the meal overall felt underwhelming. Breakfast was similar, and on the second morning our eggs were served completely cold. We had really looked forward to staying here and experiencing what we thought would be a special property in Kanazawa. Unfortunately, we left feeling disappointed. At a significantly lower price point, this experience might feel more reasonable, but at the current rate, guests expect a much higher level of quality and attention to detail. The staff were exceptional, but overall the property itself did not meet the standards we had hoped for.

the room was humongous and spotless. room amenities was sufficient. was surprised that they included soap bar and shampoo from bvlgari. staff was very polite and friendly. food and service was amazing!

Kinjoro was one of a kind experience. The room was huge there was a separate living room, the food was excellent and staff were so friendly and attentive! Highly recommend this amazing place. I expected a place like this would have an onsen but they didn’t, however the bathroom was big so it was ok.
