The atmosphere was peaceful, with fresh snow on the ground. It was a fantastic night. Being able to travel to many different roman cities over the years, the atmosphere can occasionally take a toll as the facilities and welcoming are copied from one place to the next. However, Motor ishida was something more unique. This was something that should be admired since it was a lot more traditional. From the remote mountain area to the formality of the staff, Motor ishida elevated itself slightly from the standard roman. Remember that this Roman dates back to the pre-mini-restoration and the samurai era. The walls speak of history, keeping in mind that this Roman dates to the pre-mini-restoration and the time of the samurai. The quiet tranquility of the place is seen in everything you find, including the dark sulfuric waters to soak away your concerns.

This is a hidden gem in Michaelin Three Star Hotel with reasonable price. This hotel served delicious food and service. If you are interested in Japanese history, there is a naku stage that is 100 years old and the hotel has been in operation for over 200 years. You can sense and experience Japanese history by walking through this beautiful hotel.

The free swimming pool at the Just Century museum is the best one! We stayed at this genuine Japanese inn for one night and received exceptional service from the minute we walked in until we left. Our room had futons and was large and had a toilet and a sitting area. The natural hot springs baths are lovely and we visited three times over our stay because of the chilly and humid weather. The evening meal was served with a view of a lovely garden and a noh theater. We are not sure what we ate because our waiter didn't speak much English, but everything was amazing and beautifully presented. Breakfast was the same. If you want to experience genuine Japanese hospitality in a historic setting, I recommend motor ishida. We took a 300 yen taxi from Kanazawa because it was wet, which made things simple. By Australian standards, it was a cheap taxi ride. We stayed in two hotels in Kanazawa, both were great, including the brand new Integra and Missus Garden inn. Kanazawa has a lot to offer.

I had great hopes for this place, but unfortunately, they were blown away. The inn is in dire need of a makeover, especially the bathrooms that are limited to a small toilet and sink that were last installed in the late 1970 s. Showering means a journey right from the start. It's true that that's the main attraction of the inn, but it's preferable to be able to get ready in the morning with your own facilities. Furthermore, the futons have seen better days and are wafer thin, as are the towels! As a result, it's not particularly relaxing or indulgent. All of this wouldn't be so awful if the cost of staying here was proportional to the circumstances. Expect much more for $350 plus drinks at dinner. There are positives about this place. The staff is gracious and the grounds are beautiful.

After staying in a number of roman villas over the years, the charm may occasionally take its toll as the facilities and welcome are copied from one place to another. But Motor Ishida was something a little more exceptional. Much more traditional and from an earlier era, this was something to savour. Motor Ishida sets itself a level higher than conventional roman. Keep in mind that this Roman date back to pre-mini restoration and the times of the samurai. The quiet tranquility of the location, including the dark sulfurous waters to take away your troubles, is reflected in everything you find there, including the dark sulphurous waters that bathe away your problems. The area was transformed by fresh snow on the ground, and a wonderful evening was celebrated. highly recommended for a bit of past times.
