The location of Smile Hotel Premium Higashiguchi Ekimae is absolutely fantastic! It literally is just 2 minutes walk once you walk out of the station, totally convenient! Also in front of the hotel it is the FORUS department store of Kanazawa, perfect for shopping and food! The room was spacious, quiet and clean, and the Japanese style breakfast was awesome, too bad there wasn't any vegetarian options. Overall I give very high recommendation to this hotel, good value!
