Higashiyama Tomarigi - Machiya near Higashi Chaya Geisha District

Higashiyama Tomarigi house is a spacious and comfortable Kanazawa machiya located less than a 5 minute walk to the famous Higashi Chaya geisha district. The house was an old restaurant, and the large bar counter gives the house a unique and nice atmosphere. The house has lots of space for a group of up to 8 people to comfortably relax and spend time together, but also cozy enough for smaller groups.

Description of the house

The ground floor has a bar style kitchen, a heated kotatsu (traditional Japanese table), two large living rooms, two sofas, a restroom, and a small Japanese rock garden. Upstairs has three separate bedrooms, one with two single beds, one that fits 4 futons, and one that fits two futons. Upstairs also has a shower and bath, another restroom, and a washing machine with a dryer. There is also one free parking space right next to the house for those travleing by car.

The word “tomarigi” in Japanese is either a tree or a small piece of wood that birds use to rest outside of a bird house, but it is also the small wooden bar where you rest your feet when sitting on a high stool at the counter of a restaurant. There could not be a more poetic and accurate way to describe this house made of wood, which used to be a restaurant, and is today a perfect place to stay, relax and enjoy Kanazawa.

The neighborhood

The Higashi Chaya tea district area is a place where you can experience the Japan of old.
