Enjoyable 3-day retreat in Kanazawa

The beds in the twin room were wider than normal single beds, comfortable. The hotel was walking distance to the Kanazawa Castle Park and the Kenroku-en Park. The cherry blossoms were in full bloom. Also bus stops were close by.

The staff weren't the most helpful compared with other hotels and the check in time is quite late. However, it was an enjoyable stay.

繁華街にも近く、飲みすぎた後でも道に迷わず徒歩で帰れます。入口を入ってすぐ目の前にエレベーターがある為、フロントのスタッフに醜態を晒す事なく部屋へ戻れます。周囲の環境が飲み屋街なので、家族旅行用のホテルとしてではなく、気の合う仲間同士で宿泊するならgoodです。金沢に飲みに行く機会があれば次回も是非利用したいです。
