Temarian - Artsy Machiya near Higashi Chaya Geisha District

Temarian house is a beautiful machiya style Japanese townhouse located just minutes away from two of the famous geisha districts in Kanazawa. On a small street in a quiet neighborhood, the house’s traditional red exterior paint and lattice work mimic that of some of the old geisha houses. Art work decorates the inside of the house as well, giving the house a traditional yet fun atmosphere.



Description of the house



The ground floor has a small but functional kitchen, dining room, living room, sofa, TV, bathroom, washing machine, dryer and toilet. Upstairs has two separate bedrooms, one with two single beds and one with two futons. The whole house fits four people very comfortably, and is a great place to stay for a few nights or a few weeks.



The house name comes from the word “temari” in Japanese, which is a small ball, often embroidered with beautiful patterns. As the story goes, one of the Maeda lord’s daughters loved temari, and would often make and play with them. From this, “Kaga temari” became a famous craft in the region. Temarian house uses this imagery of the Kaga temari, offering a nice look into the traditions of Kanazawa.



The neighborhood



Less than a 5 minute walk from the house are the Higashi Chaya tea district and Kazuemachi tea district. The traditional architecture, quiet streets, and the beautiful Asanogawa river make this area a truly special place to visit. Kenroku-en garden, Kanazawa Castle, and Omicho Market are all within walking distance as well. There are bus stops close by, making Temarian house a convenient place to stay during your time in Kanazawa.

Lovely 2-bedroom in Kanazawa

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the "art hotel". The decorations are nice, the kitchen was fully equipped, and everything was very clean. It's in a great location, right near Higashi Chaya. There are only two things to watch out for: - The stairs are very steep and can be difficult to climb with a suitcase. - There aren't a lot of places nearby that are open at night. But after our first night, we knew to plan ahead and this wasn't a huge deal. Overall, we would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommended.

This little townhouse is in a very quiet neighbourhood, close to the river. There is a 7 11 within 15 minutes walk and dining options nearby. While we enjoyed our stay, i would caution that it is probably not suitable for older people, or small children. The sleeping quarters are up a 60 degree staircase (fortunately with a handrail) which was hard work, even for a middle-aged gym go-er. If you had to visit the toilet at night, the sensor light does come on as you descend the stairs. We were glad to have had the experience.
