Best location! Just a 2-3 minute walk from the east exit of Kanazawa Station to catch the two loop buses to the city attractions or highway buses to Shirakawa-go, Takayama etc. Also just across the street from 6-floor shopping mall with plenty of shopping and dining! Would definitely stay here again!
The room was very clean and well furnished for several nights stay. The staff was extremely helpful for check in process and for surrounding restaurants and events.
This is the best location & super convenient to Kanazawa Station (literally 2 min walk). So great! The staff speaks English and their services are excellent! The room is spacious with a kitchenette and a washer/dryer! Highly recommended!
Great value for a stay in Kanazawa. The room itself is small, but has everything you need, a table, a desk, and some storage areas. The room was clean, and we received fresh towels every day, even though we didn't request them! A great location, about 200m from Kanazawa station.
It is right across the street from several malls and super close to transportation. They had rental umbrellas and held our bags for us for early arrival. The room was quiet and clean and the bed was comfy. The room was a decent size. We paid for one day of a Japanese breakfast and it was delicious! I highly recommend this hotel!!
Check in and out was very simple, done via machine but there are staff at check in desk to assist if needed.
Luggage storage is available.
Room was spacious with coffee table, chair and desk as well as bed and bathroom.
Very close to the station for buses and trains as well as department stores and restaurants.
Easy walk to all the key attractions in the city.
I can't say enough good things about this hotel. Very reasonably priced and guest rooms more spacious than most in its class. Just steps from the train and bus station, and across the street from a department store with many excellent restaurants. The staff is exceptionally welcoming and helpful. They booked restaurants, hair salon appointments, and helped with luggage storage and shipment. Rio-san and Inomata-san were especially helpful and spoke excellent English.
