Experience a unique blend of tradition and modern luxury during your stay with
MACHIYA RESIDENCE INN Kanazawa by experiencing a private, in-house sauna.
This exclusive experience is available at select machiya homes,
and offers an authentic Japanese atmosphere with state-of-the-art sauna amenities.

Embrace the Japanese concept of "totonou" – the perfect balance achieved by alternating between the sauna, cold water, and rest.
This harmonious cycle, traditionally enjoyed at public bathhouses (sento), can now be experienced in the privacy of your own machiya holiday house.
※ For safety reasons, children aged 12 and under are not permitted to use the sauna.
※ Facilities may vary depending on the machiya accommodation. For details, please check the official website of each participating machiya accommodation.
