This is a good hotel option. It a 5 minute walk from the train station. It’s in a quiet more office like area. It is a drive or longer walk to the historic areas of Kanazawa so we just took a taxi. The hotel offers a breakfast buffet at a cost which had both western and Japanese options and was good. They have laundry facilities on site for a good price and the room was clean, bed was comfy. Front desk staff were kind and helpful. Would stay again.

Sashimi for breakfast!

Easy and fast checkin. We had a corner twin room, which was bigger than average and so great when traveling with luggage. Buffet breakfast was awesome (tuna sashimi for breakfast!). Very limited amenities provided in the self serve area in the lobby. If you're able to make room requests, suggest staying away from floors 2(laundry room), 5 and 9 (vending machine, ice and microwave) those floors can be a bit noisy when guests are using the facilities there. As for most Japanese business hotels, the pillows are terrible.
