Hotels Near Garden Center in Kanazawa

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.

This feels like.5-star hotel but charges at a 4-star hotel price. The room is quite spacious as they have an additional window bay sofa and also a work-desk station beside the queen-sized bed. The room and it’s attached toilet bath are new and clean and everything works. They even have an in-built de mister in their bathroom mirror! The hotel staffs are very helpful, though their speak little English. An added bonus is the free public unisex Onsen baths (separate male and female in L3 and L2 respectively), which I used every night to relieve my aching muscles after a whole day out. Another plus point is it’s location near the Kanazawa station (almost fully assessable via an underground passageway from station to hotel) and it’s near to 7-11, major shopping malls and eateries around Nagoya station too. I would highly recommend this place by paying a slightly higher premium for an unforgettable accommodation experience in Kanazawa!

There are 3 good points. 1st, the location is very good, as it was walking distance from/to most of the places I wanted to visit. It's about a ~10min walk from Kanazawa Station, so no hassle getting to the hotel when you arrive. It's about ~10-15min walk to Kanazawa Castle (金沢城) and Kenrokuen (兼六園). The Omicho Market (近江町市場) is literally right across the street, so you can easily hop over there to either start or end your day with some sushi. For the more distant places, there are nearby bus stops to get to areas like the Higashi Chaya district (ひがし茶屋街) or the museums. (Though if you prefer walking, Higashi Chaya district is still walkable at about ~15-20mins). 2nd, the room was quite spacious for a solo traveler, as compared to the typical business hotel. It has a unit-type toilet+bathroom, but it was spacious enough that you can change in there (I think it can even fit 2 people at once). The room was very clean and tidy, and since all rooms are non-smoking, the place doesn't smell funny. The room provides complete amenities like the hot water kettle, a ref, and enough sockets for charging your gear. 3rd, the breakfast buffet was delicious. The selection of both western and local japanese dishes made it worth its price. There is unlimited coffee too, which is available even outside the buffet (great for people who can't go throughout the day without coffee). The staff speaks English well, so no worries if your Japanese skills aren't that great like me. All in all, would gladly stay here again if I find myself in Kanazawa :)

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 knew to walk a little from the station, but I used it because it was cheap with discount just before. The room is small but it is an average business hotel including facilities. Shampoo was DHC. The outlet was away from the pillow, but there was an extension code in the room and it was convenient. Recently, there was no place to put in a business hotel, but there was also a set of dripping coffee. I also gave me 1 bottle of water at check-in. There were also some kinds of breakfast for free. However, the cafe in the breakfast venue is narrow and crowded depending on the time zone. I didn't see a woman in the building or there were many business use on weekdays, and only men.

Location: very conveniently located right besides the bus stop for buses back and forth from Kanazawa station as well as other major touristy spots. But even walking wise everything including Kenrokuen garden, Kanazawa castle, the famous districts & also just 2-3 min walk to Omiya shrine Hotel & Room standard: Elegantly classy and very contemporary rooms. Size was also pretty good and comfortable enough for 2 people for standard room. Room amenities are also very good and the Public bath at top also looks quite fancy. Staff service: Was very very impressed with the staff service. I think everyone spoke & understood basic English to assist with any questions. Furthermore they even have great personalised hotel brochures for restaurants and spots nearby the hotel and what cuisine each offered which I found very helpful. Overall an easy 5/5 stay

Best value for money! Of all the accommodations I've stayed in in Japan, it's the most spacious and the shortest. Hair dryer, water pressure is really strong, so it's good for impatient Koreans. I was told I had to pay for towels and luggage storage, but they were all free. Very satisfied~

Super satisfied! The hotel is very clean! The room is huge! The location is very convenient for traveling in the city center! There are also samples and utensils available at the service desk! Very considerate! The most satisfying hotel on this trip!

I think the location was good because it was close to downtown Katamachi, and it was cheap to find the place. The room was a semi-double room for 2 people, but I think it would have been better if the bed was a little bigger, but considering the price, there is no problem. Bathroom was wider than we thought and was satisfied. I would like to use it again if there is an opportunity. Correspondence of hotel was good, too.
