The location was convenient to the place we wanted to visit. The Omicho Market is one block away and interesting districts within walking distance. The bus system took some learning since we’re more familiar with using metro lines but is doable. Hotel room was typical in size (small) but was clean and functional. Staff was friendly and helpful. Didn’t eat at their restaurant but looked inviting. Keep in mind they don’t consistently provide washcloths for bathing in Japan. Brought my own and used laundry facilities to wash when staying for extended periods.

Morning too early, but great location!

Room was over all comfortable, but they are NOT black out curtains. So with a 4:30 AM sunrise, if light wakes you up, you’ll be awake. Otherwise good stay and good location, especially for the Castle and the Samurai district

Was just an over night stop on the way back to Tokyo. There is really nothing to do or see in the city so I wouldn't recommend more than a one night.

We had a lovely stay in this hotel with our family of 2 adults and 2 kids. We had a 4 bed room, and just enough space for suitcases. The highlight was the bathroom - it was the biggest bathroom of our Japan trip - 2 basins, and the best shower ever! Highly recommend staying here if you are going to Kanazawa. Its really close to the Castle, gardens and markets. An easy 18 minute walk from the Shinkensen station too, so we didnt bother with taxis. The online checkin and checkout wasnt too painful, so dont let that put you off. I did read all the negative reviews here - but that wasnt our experience. This was the best hotel for our needs in Kanazawa, and very reasonably priced.
