B&B MIKAWA - Kanazawa Fish Harbour

Such a warm welcome from the hosts - they helped us plan our stay in Mikawa showing us all of the activities on offer and really welcoming us to the town for the few days. Having heard we wanted to do a visit to Shirakawa-Go they immediately booked us into the tour which was a blessing as this secured us the final seats for the day. Both our room and the wider property felt very clean and a nice level of homely which we loved. I’m gluten free and they even ordered me some gf soy sauce to maximise our time in Japan which was such a sweet touch. The place is about 20min train (station is a 5 min walk from the accommodation) into Kanazawa. We throughly enjoyed being out of the business, close to the seaside with the most amazing fresh sushi locally and beautiful beach sunsets but also easy reach of Kanazawa. There are also bikes at the property which are free to use and make travelling around Mikawa very easy (reach the shops/ beach / local museum in a few mins ride). We loved our stay and thoroughly recommend if in the area or wanting a few days peace outside the city. Thank you very much!!

Sasa the owner and Annie the manager went out of their way literally and figuratively to ensure we had a wonderful experience in Mikawa despite the unseasonable cold and wet weather. They drove us to Sasa's friend's restaurant and joined us for a FABULOUS 7 course seafood dinner that Sasa specially ordered. When Sasa learned my wife is allergic to wheat and soy sauce, he left the restaurant and went and bought a gluten-free sauce and brought it back to restaurant to be used for dishes he ordered for my wife! We experienced a couple of mishaps a few days before arriving that diminished our spirits. With many thanks to Annie and Sasa, our spirits were lifted by the best meal and evening spent of our 21 day trip. We will rave about Sasa, Annie and B&B Mikawa for years to come.

This is my first time pausing during a trip to write a review, but my experience at B&B Mikawa truly deserves it. Sasa and Annie are incredible hosts—both are so full of joy and radiate such positive energy. They went above and beyond, from helping us book amazing local restaurants to securing last-minute temple reservations. If this isn’t top-notch hospitality, I don’t know what is. We only stayed two days at B&B Mikawa, but if we’d known how wonderful it would be, we would have booked an entire week. The facility itself is modern, stylishly designed, and very comfortable. With access to an onsen, bicycles, and a nearby train station, everything we needed was at our fingertips. Thanks to Sasa-san and Annie-san, we created unforgettable memories of Japan. I hope we get to meet them again someday!

The epitome of Japanese hospitality! The hosts were incredibly kind and helpful. They gave us recommendations for where to eat in Mikawa, helped us order food, helped us get a car for trips to the beach and Hakusan National Park, and recommended we attend some local music events. Strolling through the town on quiet evenings after a delicious meal was really special. The suite was very comfortable and well-equipped for our family of four. Breakfast was yummy and very nice to have on site. The place also came with bikes and free entrance to the local onsen. Mikawa is a 20 minute train ride from Kanazawa Station. After being in Tokyo and Kyoto, this was the perfect place to stay to get away from big cities and see other parts of Japan. But Kanazawa is still close and it was easy to navigate getting back to Tokyo through Kanazawa Station. The hosts also gave us information about a city bus loop that leaves from Kanazawa Station and stops at major attractions. In the end, we had so much fun being in Mikawa and seeing other areas that we didn't go to Kanazawa except through the train station.

The owner helped us make a reservation in a great sushi place just outside of town, and even offered to drive us. Room is spacious, bigger than most. Good price, great value for money. Breakfast included. A bit basic, hard boiled eggs, jam on toast. But nice. Lively bar close by - ask the owner where it is! Great private parking lot.
