What an absolute gem of a place! Machiya Guest House Carta is set in a beautifully preserved 19th century wooden house. You travel back in time as soon as you set a foot in. The zen garden, beautifully furnished common areas and large bedrooms fill you with peace. You can feel that much love and care has been invested into this place to make guests feel comfortable and welcome. The owners were such lovely people, and so very helpful. Each of their recommendations was spot on. The location is great too, in a quiet area of town but a short walking distance to a host of great cafes, restaurants and trendy shops. The guest house is also well connected to all the main sights (including train station) thanks to the loop bus, a short distance away. If you're lucky enough to find this place available, don't hesitate. Staying there was such a privilege. I couldn't think of a better place to sip in the tranquil and cultured atmosphere of this beautiful city.

I found the place great for exploring Kanazawa: you get an entire traditional Japanese house for yourself, in a quiet place despite being 20 minutes by foot from Kenroku-en garden and the castle, and at a very competitive price. It was extremely clean and I really enjoyed the atmosphere. Highly recommended!

This guesthouse is located very close to the river and one of the famous Geisha districts. The bus stops are also close. It offers clean and quite spacious rooms and great living room and bathroom areas. All the equipment is there and works just fine. It was a little bit cold at night, but you can just use more blankets. The staff speaks English and helps to get around the city.

This was an incredible experience staying with some lovely locals Nina and Masaki. The nightly activities were a real highlight and something I will not forget for a long time. The facilities were clean and comfortable. It's a really cute space. Don't leave Ponghi without asking Nina about her favourite J-Pop songs ;)

Very lovely guest house with a great host. Pleasant change to the usual choice of more or less soulless hotels if you want something more unique. I visited for a couple of days to see Kanazawa. Would definitely choose this accommodation again. Medium-duration walk to the city centre.
