チェックインはフロントが空いていても機械を使うように誘導されるのが、少し不便に感じました。しかもその後に説明しに話しに来ることが、機械化してる意味を感じられません。部屋は広く綺麗で快適でした。朝ごはんも美味しく満足しました。ホテルに専用駐車場が無く、提携駐車場も無いのが不便です。フロント対応、駐車場以外は綺麗で満足です。

Excellent hotel near Kanazawa station. The check-in/out machines worked well. Cleaning 1 night every 4, amenity bags left on door on non cleaning days. No fan in the washroom so had to run the air con on dry mode. Free drink bar in the lobby and amenities such as bath bombs, combs, toothbrushes. Overall a very nice hotel would return.

フロント向かい側に歯ブラシや室内着などアメニティがあり、入浴剤まであるのが嬉しいです。またコーヒーマシーンがあり、自由に飲めます。部屋にも毛布や加湿器があるのがとてもありがたく、なんといってもユニットバスが広く、入浴剤を入れて足を伸ばせてゆっくり入れるのが至福です。チェックイン、チェックアウトも機械でスムーズです。

Convenient location near Kanazawa station, making it a short walk for arrival and/or departure. Adjacent to Kanazawa Forus department store, there is plenty of food and shopping options. Check-in/out was very simple, done on the automated machine; since we arrived before check-in, they graciously held our luggage to allow us to explore the area freely. The room was clean and spacious (compared to Tokyo standards) and selection of amenities was very comprehensive, including bath bombs!

It was ok and close to the station. Issue we had was the room was very small and hot. The air conditioning did not really work and did not cool the room. Therefore we had to leave the window open all night to try and get some cold air. This was noisy and bright. Not ideal for sleeping. Probably would not choose here again for that reason.

This was a really nice hotel- the room was really large even by western standards, it was all very clean and the decor was nice. Staff were friendly and helpful. We were only staying one night in Kanazawa before heading back to Tokyo, and we were very sad to leave! Very convenient access to the train station, and opposite a shopping centre with plenty of eatery options.

Wir konnten erst um Punkt 14.00h einchecken. Hierbei wurden die "self check in" Terminals vom Personal zugänglich gemacht. Das Personal stand beim "self check" in neben uns und hat dann über die Schulter geschaut ob alles funktioniert. Hilfe bekam man erst wenn der "self check in" nicht geklappt hätte. Das war der Kontakt zum Personal, alles sehr anonym und unpersönlich. Es fand kein Gespräch statt.

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.
