Hoshino Resorts KAI Kaga is a traditional hot spring ryokan in Yamashiro Onsen, where the crafts and culture of the Kaga region are incorporated throughout the stay. Guest rooms feature details such as Kaga Yuzen dyed fabrics and decorative Mizuhiki cords, while the historic red-latticed building dates from the early 19th century and has been carefully incorporated into the property. The hot spring baths feature Kutani ceramic panels and traditional gold and silver leaf decoration, while guests can also visit the restored Kosoyu public bathhouse nearby. Dinner is served kaiseki-style using Kutani ware, with seasonal Hokuriku ingredients such as blackthroat seaperch, crab and abalone. Cultural experiences are another highlight, including a nightly contemporary performance of the traditional Kaga Shishimai lion dance and a kintsugi workshop. The Bengara Lounge is a relaxed spot for sampling Hokuriku sake and local snacks while looking across the historic onsen town.
