Cozy room with room mates from all ober the world, everything around here was so traditional and amusing, so it is definitely the best sharehouse in Kanazawa.
We had a perfect stay in Pongyi. The staff is very kind, the place is super clean and really beautifull. Just 5/10 minutes walking from station and 15 minutes to the city center.
But, the best is the experience we had, they will do short activities for guests at night. We could enjoy a class of japanese calligraphie with Maru, the owner of the guesthouse. We can't be more gratefull for that stay.
Very cute and cosy hostel. Good for individual travellers.
Super friendly and warm environment.There was an origami and a calligraphy lesson as well as an informal tea ceremony in the guesthouse over our stay. They gave us detailed maps of the things to do and see in Kanazawa and even gave us little gifts on our way out.
Overall, it was a great experience!
Guest House Pongyi is an amazing place to stay. It isn't a fancy, trendy hostel like some in Tokyo. But It is a really nice, cozy place to stay. The hostel itself is a historic building that used to be a kimono shop and the staff are fantastic and will stop at nothing to make you feel at home. There is only one bathroom and shower, but it's not a big place so it's not a big deal. The dorms are nice and well maintained and the entire house is really clean. It isn't a 5 star hotel, and it doesn't try to be. It is the best value you can get in Kanazawa. The hosts have good English and will help you with any reservations you need. I really enjoyed my stay at Guest House Pongyi and would recommend it to anyone.
Well-placed and inexpensive, friendly innkeep throws cultural events with the guests.
