Simple, quietly familiar days.
The feel of tatami underfoot, soft light through shoji. Settle in, slowly.

VILLA No.01 — opened November 2024
Nomachi Villa
野町邸 / Nomachi, Kanazawa
Read description
A carefully restored two-storey townhouse. Soft light through shōji, the warm calm of wood and tatami. Two bedrooms — one Japanese, one Western — sleeping up to 6. Ten minutes' walk from the Katamachi nightlife district, far enough that the city's hum doesn't reach you.
Antique furniture and lighting bring a Taishō-era atmosphere to the interior. The living room overlooks a small Japanese garden of maple, pine, and nandina. Two upstairs bedrooms (one Western, one Japanese-style) sleep up to 5. The Nishi Chaya teahouse district is 200 metres away.

"This was the most beautiful and peaceful stay in Japan, looks exactly like the photos in real life. The house is beautiful with so many amazing details, everything taken care of."
Annemarie · Nomachi Villa · Nov 2025
"This home is an authentic, original Japanese style home. The Japanese garden is as beautiful as the photos. After sleeping on typical beds for 25 nights, I had the best sleep at this home."
Angela · 5 nights · Shiragiku Villa · Nov 2025
"Wish we could give it 6 stars for our one week stay. In a great location in a typical quiet Japanese neighborhood, full of temples and trees."

Q.05How does check-in work?
After booking, we send you a link to your private guest page. There you upload a passport photo (non-Japanese guests) and complete a short guest registry for everyone in your party — a step required by Japanese law. Once submitted, your check-in details (address, access, Wi-Fi, entrance keybox PIN) appear on the page. A staff member usually meets you at the villa for in-person ID verification. You can message us anytime through the guest page during your stay.
Q.06What languages can the host handle?
Japanese, plus real-time translation for virtually any language. Most replies within an hour.
Q.07What's the difference between direct booking and Airbnb?
Direct booking on Nomachi Villa is the lowest rate, with long-stay discounts. See 02 Why book direct for details. Shiragiku is currently bookable on Airbnb only.
