Villas in Nanto

Traditional Japanese house with traditional Japanese dinner included. Gifts on arrival were an unexpected surprise Beautiful Garden with large pond.

The inn is absolutely gorgeous, it’s a must for everyone visiting Kanazawa. Thanks a lot!!

We have eagerly looked forward to staying in this house ever since we first saw it on the website. While we had read the reviews beforehand, they did not fully prepare us for the exceptional hospitality and generosity shown by Hitty. The house is akin to a time capsule, preserving everything in a traditional and authentic manner, yet providing all the modern amenities we desired, especially during the hot and humid Japanese summer. Hitty warmly greeted us and gave us a tour, even though we arrived earlier than planned. He passionately shared the house's history, captivating stories about Kanazawa, the Kaga and Maeda clans, and even showed us the attic with weapons and other Kaga clan artifacts. To add to the charm, his wife had thoughtfully arranged two beautiful ikebana creations that delighted our senses. After having explored a large part of Japan in the days prior, it was truly a pleasure to slow down, relax a bit, and savor the essence of the slow life that Japan is renowned for. The tea-making set and delightful tea blend at our disposal, served in Edo-era tea cups, enhanced our experience. The luxurious bath in the tall iron tub was equally enjoyable. We only wish we had more time to fully immerse ourselves in Kanazawa, perhaps delving into some of the many books on the bookshelves or dining at more of the local restaurants, all thoughtfully compiled in Hitty's list with his personal recommendations. Hitty's generosity as a host far exceeded our expectations, and we are immensely grateful for the time and heart he has invested in this place. It is evident that this endeavor means more to him than just a business. He is an extraordinarily genuine person, and the meaningful conversations we had will be cherished memories. Without a doubt, we will visit again, next time for a more extended stay. This experience has been one of the absolute highlights of our 15-day trip, and I cannot recommend it highly enough!

The house is very conveniently located. All major sight seeing points are within walking distance. The house itself is very nicely decorated, clean, spacious, with a beautiful balcony and a well equipped kitchen. Highly recommend.

Private, cosy home. Close proximity to attractions (considering we don't mind walking 10-15 minutes). Facilities were complete and very nice. Loved the minimalist and homey feel of this place.

How well maintained the property is and how well taken care of you feel during your stay.

Nice traditional home , good location , quiet neighbourhood
