Located in downtown Kanazawa lies Korinkyo, a former art gallery now renovated into a boutique luxury hotel with a distillery. High arched windows (the originals from it’s former life) beckon you in with charming city views of Kanazawa and are a constant feature throughout the premises. Recline on the lobby’s comfortable settee as you take in the stunning minimalism, industrial, concrete architectural vibes bathed softly in natural light, as you sip on perhaps the most delicious herbal floral Taiwanese tea served in a gorgeous antique Japanese teacup.
