  beautiful setting

  located on a very beautiful setting right on the river bank. beautifully decorated hotel with good spa facility. It took a while getting there by public transport from Tokyo but the place is well worth it. the walk along the river is a must activity if the weather is good. It is a very nice hotel, building and the staffs too. but they try too hard to be extra fancy and ending up giving us too much 'service' which was basically more and more food. tea and sweets at chack-in, more sweets and fresh fruits in the room as well as tea/coffee and taste of sake, afternoon snack of pancake, after bath ice-lolly and beer, food voucher to use in the town, huge dinner we couldn't finish, more sweets added to the room table on top of the ones we didn't touch earlier, evening snack we didn't even ask for... maybe it's better to think of other 'service' that's not food or drink. big bath area was clean and really relaxing. and the cnahging room was kept tidy all the time too. we had our dinner and breakfast in a private room in a restaurant, with a nice view of the small garden. the lady attended our table was professional and friendly with so much extra informations about what we are eating. we had an exelent time at the table with her. the room we stayed had a big bed and a tatami room for futon-bed space plus small extra room with private outside onsen bath. we stayed as a family of 4 but I think the room was was big enough for few more guests. we had a good relaxing stay.

  Average

  Kissho Yamanaka Onsen Hotel is your average, run of the mill onsen hotel, but located slightly away from the main onsen town centre, along the river. It is nice and quiet, and has adequate baths. Free ice popsicles provided in the bath changing rooms is a nice touch, but does not take away the very average quality of meals served. Overall, ok for the price, but nothing oustanding.

  Great hospitality, very delicious food

  I wanted to take my husband to a relaxing trip with lots of good food, and he also wanted to walk around the shopping street nearby. I chose this place because I read that the food here is delicious, and it really was!! Both dinner and breakfast are full Japanese course. There were several options you can choose for drinks. The seafood is very fresh because this town is located near the sea and is famous for its fishing ports. My husband was very satisfied with both dinner and breakfast. The lady that served us was a very professional nice lady, she moves so fast but elegant, and she explained about every food in detail. The dinner/breakfast place was very spacey so we was not bothered at all by the other people, it felt very private. We chose a room with a private onsen, and my husband really loves it as well. The onsen in our room is a half-rotenburo (half open air onsen, which means its indoor but it has a very big window so you can look at the scenery outside and breath fresh air while enjoying the bath) This hotel has a sister hotel at the other side of the town, and they provide a free transport between the two hotels for the people who stayed at either of these hotel. We had a little mishap here. We walked along the pathway of the forest nearby to enjoy the autumn leaves and arrived at its sister hotel. We asked the sister hotels receptionist whether we can take the free transport back to our hotel because we didnt want to walk back, and he told us to wait a few minutes since the car is currently out sending someone else back to the hotel. We waited for about 30 minutes and we wondered why the car hasnt returned yet, and it turns out the receptionist forgot about us lol. He immediately arranged one so we safely returned to our hotel. The staff at our hotel apologized alot for the mishap. I think they were notified of the mistake the sister hotel made because the staff literally ran out of the lobby to welcome us back when they saw our car coming. The service was also really great so we did not feel bitter at all despite the small mistake made by their sister hotel. They have a free service of Japanese-style snack and tea at the lobby. They also have free foot-onsen near the lobby, and also free rental of yukata (summer kimonos) for women. Overall it was a very delightful experience: really great full and it feels like we received a lot of hospitality. I will stay in this hotel again if we have another chance to visit Kaga Onsen.

  Excellent Stay

  Very nice place to stay. Spas were great. Our stay included breakfast and dinner. Dinner in the Benihana style restaurant with the beef dish was outstanding as were the Japanese meals. Staff was very warm and receptive. Only issue for us was that all rooms allowed smoking and although they deodorized the room, the straw floors absorb smoke which bothered us a little. All-in-all a great stay and would definitely return.

  Highlight of our Japan trip

  We had a wonderful stay here in August. We were warmly greeted by an English-speaking staff member and shown to our traditional Japanese room, which was absolutely lovely with a river view and peaceful minimalist furniture. I was concerned when I booked because it was a smoking room but there was no smell at all. We reserved the private stone bath and it was an amazing experience. Food and snacks were good and abundant. Futons were made up for us while we were at dinner and we had a great sleep. We only spent one night and it would have been better to have had two to enjoy the room and all the hotel has to offer. The Western breakfast was especially fun with course after course cooked right in front of you with guests seated around a stovetop. The area is within easy reach of Kanazawa and I would highly recommend visiting the temple grounds of Natadera on your way from Kaga to the hotel. We ended up paying around 60 euros for a taxi to take us there and wait for us for an hour, but it was worth it for what was the highlight of a 2 week trip to Japan. There's a nice British guy at the tourist office at the Kaga station that can help you arrange this with a taxi driver. It's not cheap, but when you factor in the cost of a luxurious dinner, breakfast, and private bath (not to mention tea, snacks, yukata rental, all free), it was a good value stay and we really enjoyed ourselves.
