Hotel berhampiran Arayamachiko Park, Kanazawa

Only stayed here for 1 night recently as I was on a day trip to the surrounding area but it was a great stay. Very good staff on reception and the room I had was excellent with many amenities available. The bed was comfortable allowing me to have a peaceful night's sleep. I did not try the hotel restaurant. The hotel is in a superb location due to it being very close to Kanazawa Bus Terminal and train station. If you intend to stay in Kanazawa, give this hotel a try.

Right upstairs at JR station . The hotel entrance is in the station, it is excellent location. The room facilities is so far so good , no onsen in hotel, no free drink at lobby, and even not provide a bottle water in your room. I don't think it is worth at this high price , you have many other choices around the JR station.

Fantastic hotel with spacious rooms and very friendly staff. We chose Nikko Kanazawa because of its proximity to the train station. Hotel Nikko is actually Kanazawa’s tallest building, designed by a Japanese-French team. Rooms located on 21st-25th floors have beautiful views. Nikko is connected to the Higashi ( eastern) side of the station by the underground passageway through the Porter building. Our room at the 21st floor was large, clean and modern with a fantastic view over the city towards the Sea of Japan. It was very relaxing at the end of the day to sit in arm chairs and watch the sunset. Service was excellent. We found a good restaurant on the sixth floor of the Forus shopping center adjacent to the train station (on the right if you look at the eastern entrance to the station through the giant Torii gate). The name is Morimorizushi Kanazawa Ekimae-ten (sushi), you can't miss it - there will be people on the benches waiting outside. The line goes fast, just don't forget to take your ticket at the entrance. This hi-tech kaiten (conveyor belt) sushi joint is a fantastic place for excellent sushi at reasonable price. It is only 4-5 min. from Hotel Nikko and on rainy day you can reach it by the underground passage. We liked Hotel Nikko and would stay here again.

The location is niether good or bad. For business travelers, it is ten minutes walk away from Kanazawa Station so there are better options. For visitors, it'd be better to stay near Korinbo, the major shopping district that is close to the castle and the famous Kenrokuen Garden. It may explain why the room fee is relatively cheap. It covers all the basics but I found the room a bit noisy. Though not as bad as hearing your neighbour's voice, the sound proofing is definitely sub-par. So if you are sound sensitive, take this into consideration.

Has a public bath that gives free apple cider, that’s 10 points to Gryffindor. Very standard facilities with everything you need on a business trip. The staff didn’t speak very good English but are professional enough that you don’t need to know what they are trying to say.

I’m here now and want to write about my experience as it’s happening. I’m blown away at this property. The beauty, the people, the quiet…except for the waterfall which you hear if you’re outside. I have a balcony room. The AC is splendid! There’s a tub inside the large shower area. The shower water is a little weaker than I normally care for, but YMMV. Breakfast is a huge buffet with very nice options, all Japanese and all high quality. Both mornings, I’ve been served an amuse. Tonight I’ll try dinner for the first time here, and no doubt it’ll be delicious. If you opt out of housekeeping, they leave you a big bag of two each large towels, hand towels and bath towels. Housekeeping is as quiet as a church mouse. I arrived at the Kanazawa train station, and even though I knew that there would be a shuttle bus, and which side to exit from, I didn’t know which one was mine. This information is not on the website, so I’ll tell you that you exit on the west side, and upon exiting, turn to the right, where the group bus waiting area is. And watch for a bus that is white with an orange *****e on the front. One other word of caution. There are two hotels that are named the same. Just because you see the hotel name on the outside, that may not be yours. Do you want to be sure that the driver and the accompanying guide know that the one you want is on this particular street. It’s a really new hotel, as it’s only been open for about a year. I upgraded and got the lounge access and that’s been totally worth it! The afternoon suites are so stunningly gorgeous and there’s a cocktail hour also in the afternoon, but I think it’s really like three or four hours long. The staff speaks their English, but have your Google translate ready for words that they may not automatically know. However, I will say they are extremely eager to understand and please you. I highly recommend this hotel!!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this remarkable onsen hotel, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I arrived, I was warmly greeted by the attentive staff who kindly assisted with my luggage. The attention to detail was evident right from the start as I was asked to remove my shoes before stepping onto the pristine premises. As someone who appreciates the therapeutic benefits of onsen bathing, I was delighted to find that this hotel truly excels in providing an exceptional onsen experience. The facilities were top-notch, ensuring a relaxing and rejuvenating soak that left me feeling completely refreshed. Furthermore, the breakfast spread offered an abundance of delicious seafood options, providing a culinary delight that perfectly complemented the tranquil ambiance of the hotel. Overall, my stay at this onsen hotel was nothing short of exceptional, and I am already eagerly looking forward to my next visit. It's truly a gem worth returning to time and time again! 🌸

Stayed a night for sightseeing. The hotel decorated like Japanese Ryokan though, nothing remarkable for anything else. Pros: Newly opened. Good access to major spots in Kanazawa by foot and bus. Cons: Tricky room layout for Classic Double Room(s) including a gap to bathroom, low bed. Those trickiness made me feeling uneasy during stay.

L’hotel è moderno e in una buona zona e costa davvero poco. Abbiamo prenotato una camera doppia, ma il letto è davvero piccolo per due. Alla reception ci avevano detto “un letto con due cuscini” e così è stato. Siamo stati molto stretti in due, inoltre il materasso è davvero durissimo (con le molle). si moriva dal caldo, ma con la finestra aperta entrava molto rumore da chi a notte fonda era in giro a far festa.
