"Wataya = WOW! From the second we arrive... I'm so happy Aaron chose this place.
The staff is a family that has owned and operated this wonderful house for 7 generations!
We chill in the onsen chatting loudly as we are the only guests today, return to the room to relax looking at the garden during twilight.
Dinner is served! We did a poor job at informing them of my friend's restricted diet... The proprieter is so generous! She grabs a frozen pizza from her home to feed my buddy...

"Incredible stay here. I suggest if you are passing through to stay one night. The dinner and breakfast were incredible and exactly what we’re have been craving for. Thank you to the staff for being so warm and welcoming. "

"Our stay here was wonderful—the staff, the food, the onsen and of course the arrangement of the temple activities. If you are going to Eihiji I highly recommend a stay here."

"Amazing stay - couldn’t recommend more. The staff are incredibly attentive and helpful, the hotel is set in a beautiful location and the entire experience is flawless. The food is excellent as well, although it’s worth noting that both the dinner and breakfast are very generous meals - best not to eat too much beforehand!
Thank you so much to all of the staff - we had a wonderful time with you and hope to see you again soon!"

"I chose the Japanese Style King room, and after 3 nights, I have to say, I picked the wrong room. It is not comfortable. It's not easy to navigate the room with no chairs or regular table. The bed is low on the floor and the sitting is on the floor, so expect to stand up from the floor a lot if you choose this room.
The room is 375 sq ft (which is not bad), but it feels very small and crammed. The bathroom also feels small. There is no room to place your suitcases, so we ended up placing them on the sitting area. There is no wardrobe to hang your clothes, and there is little shelving.
Expedia lists this as a 4-star, I say it's a 3-star. Amenities is limited. There is no coffee in the room. The hotel doesn't have ta q bin pickup service (luggage out-going transfer). Luckily there is a ta q bin office nearby.
Location-wise, it's great. Omicho market is right across the street. And a couple of small malls also nearby. Hakomachi next door has many restaurants inside too. The hotel is also within walking distance to main attractions. Also, it's quiet.
Yes, I'd stay here again, but definitely in a more normal room, and lower my expectation of the '4-star' rating."
"The room was very comfortable, and had adequate space, though one bed was pushed against the wall. Lots of helpful amenities. There were various refreshments in the lounge through out the day, which was nice. The onsen is small, but fully equipped. My only complaint was that there was a very bright light on a motion sensor in the entryway, and there was no way to turn it off. If you got up in the night to use the sink or toilet it came on blinding you (and anyone else) in the room. We found a creative solution, but there should be a way to turn the motion sensor off.

"Absolutely fantastic. Loved the room and the onsen was everything I needed. Lots of amenities and freebies which really surprised me. A nice little getaway while still being central to Kanazawas tourist spots."
"The hotel was great, only minor complaint was the room was very warm and the air conditioning was centrally controlled (i.e. not available to cool until summer months). We could fortunately open the window slightly to help cool it down. Otherwise, the area has lots of nearby hotels/tourists and not enough restaurants to service them all. Plan accordingly or end up waiting for food or having to have limited Konbini dinner several nights like we had to. "
