Hakusan Hotel Guide - Shishiku Gondola Summit Station hotels in Hakusan, Japan.

"Our stay at Matsusaki Ryokan was absolutely unforgettable. The pickup from Komatsu Station was incredibly smooth and stress-free, which set the tone for the entire experience. From the moment we arrived, everything was handled with such care and attention to detail. The property itself is stunning—the pond and garden are beautifully maintained, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere that’s perfect for unwinding. Every corner of the ryokan was spotless, and you could really feel the pride they take in keeping the facilities so clean and comfortable. What truly made our stay exceptional, though, was the hospitality. Natalie went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, relaxed, and well taken care of. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and thoughtful throughout our stay. The meals were fantastic, and she did an amazing job making sure we were always well-fed and happy. If you’re looking for a place that combines traditional charm with genuine warmth and top-notch service, Matsusaki Ryokan is an absolute gem. We left feeling refreshed, cared for, and already wanting to come back."

"The location is very nice - quiet but still convenient (located in the mid-point between Kanazawa JR Station and Chaya District). Extremely clean and well-maintained. The public bath opens early at 5am and we went to enjoy it when we woke up early due to jetlag. Staff are very friendly."

"The hotel was great and it was very easy to get around. "

"A wonderful place to stay. Love Kanazawa "

"Very nice."

"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... I'm stuffed by beer, pickled vegetables, traditional soup, local river caught fish displayed alive on skewers then COOKED TO DEATH! Followed by BEAR MEAT! Literal apex predator of the forest in my mouth. It's pretty great. Delightful sliced steak then green tea mousse with some fruit for dessert. We have to hit the onsen before bed. So pleasantl I hit the onsen tub alone, bodywash, hop in and acclimate while watching YouTube. Some pleasuring women, some women behavior, some news. Breakfast is served at 8 as requested. I eat alone as Aaron doesn't want anything they have. Pickled vegetables, river fish, light soup, egg, grilled salmon, local orange and strawberry with fresh rice. Rice milk, water and great coffee! I love this place so much... Return to my room, we take a selfie with the garden, pack up and check out. The proprieter and his mother see us off in a taxi."

"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 love the Tanbo no Yu! I can tell that its being fixed up more everytime I come here! This time, really enjoyed the pure stream bath it was very warm and a comfortable place to chat with my husband. The food was delicious and healthy with many flavors and unlimited hokuriku rice! I definitely be back again!"

"The Hotel it's nice, needs updates, but still comfortable. The staff was amazing. Super friendly and helpful. What a pleasure to be there. The restaurants have good food too. "
