Enjoyable 3-day retreat in Kanazawa

The beds in the twin room were wider than normal single beds, comfortable. The hotel was walking distance to the Kanazawa Castle Park and the Kenroku-en Park. The cherry blossoms were in full bloom. Also bus stops were close by.

繁華街にも近く、飲みすぎた後でも道に迷わず徒歩で帰れます。入口を入ってすぐ目の前にエレベーターがある為、フロントのスタッフに醜態を晒す事なく部屋へ戻れます。周囲の環境が飲み屋街なので、家族旅行用のホテルとしてではなく、気の合う仲間同士で宿泊するならgoodです。金沢に飲みに行く機会があれば次回も是非利用したいです。
