Wanoi Kakunodatea Nishinomiyake Bushigura

非常好，很難忘的住宿體驗

The comfortable special space is two floors and spacious.The bath is wraped in ascent of cypress, the living room is warm with floor heating, and the breakfast is freshly prepared using local ingredients. We enjoyed dinner at the reccomended restaurant while strolling around the histric city. The special experience of staying at the old storehouse was more comfortable than I imagined. I want to stay again.

As noted by the other reviewers, we stayed in one of the 3 renovated classical buildings, in the samurai district. I don’t know what we expected, but we couldn’t have anticipated a more beautiful, elegant and thoughtfully decorated space. I say space, not room, because we had the entire house. Every single detail is curated and presented. Since we stayed in the house of a cloth merchant, we walked into the landing were a sublime kimono was displayed. Many of the other decorations are ancient tools (spoolers, weaving equipment, etc). The beds are very comfortable, the wet room with circular bathtub is perfect, there is a kitchen space with artisanal cups … I don’t know that we have ever stayed in a place that we have liked more.

There is so much care and thought put into every element of the space to retain the roots of the kura, yet also be beautifully traditional and functionally modern. We were especially impressed with the bathtub area of our kura, and the radiant heating, as well as the compactness of the emergency escape ladder, should you need it. Breakfast was the best breakfast we had during the whole of our stay in Akita! The ceramics were also lovely. Location is great proximity to the station and main area. Staff were friendly and willing to drive us to and from the station. Would definitely stay here again if I'm in the area again.

What an astonishing place! If you're looking for a more authentic experience, this is a great choice. Although it is very Japanese in character it also has concessions to older western visitors. Although the dining table is at a level to suit people who sit on the floor chairs they have, the table also has a recess for those who wish to sit more conventionally. We were lucky that we had the whole place to ourselves. Terrifically atmospheric. Breakfast is described as a Bento box, but that does not do it justice. It is brought to your rooms in a fabulous ceramic box with 12+ different dishes. Well worth more than the single night we were able to stay.

THis accommodation was a completely separate converted storehouse in a very historic and convenient part of the town. The reception staff at the main building close to the station were extraordinarily helpful and kind, and drove ahead of us to show us the way to the building. The building is a superbly converted spacious and very modern yet authentic space, with a fabulous downstairs bathtub (Olsen really ..) that can accommodate two (wonderfully cosy ..) and makes for an authentic Japanese bathing experience alongside the deliciously served breakfasts from the staff who appear at the given time. The upstairs bedroom is sumptuous and has futon style bedding but raised up somewhat which makes for a more comfortable night for westerners used to that height. Just about every possible amenity one could imagine wanting has been catered for, and we could easily have stayed more than our two nights with great pleasure. However, Kacunodate is probably ‘done’ in about 2 days, so long enough. We cannot recommend this accommodation highly enough!

Maison EXTRAORDINAIRE! Expérience unique! Seul détail important: l'enregistrement se fait dans un hôtel situé à 30 secondes à pied en sortant de la gare (sur la gauche). NE PAS se rendre à la maison louée, c'est à l'hôtel de la gare qu'il faut s'enregistrer. On viendra ensuite vous reconduire en voiture à votre maison.

4人で泊まってもかなり広くて静かでゆっくりできました。少しあるけば正月でも夕食が食べれる所があったのでよかった
