Hotel Pacific Kanazawa

Great location near omicho market and the kanazawa train station (2 bus stops away if you don't want to walk) Hotel staff spoke good english, and there's a nice small lounge at the lobby (they make their own plum alcohol) Best part was the bicycle rental, quite a few bicycles for rent to roam about the city. First 3 hours is 200 yen, 100 yen per hour after Wifi in my room's location was not very good, but the TV has netflix and a cabled connection

3.5/5. The hotel is a bit Hipster. The service was great. The staff was very friendly and able to help me have my luggage delivered to my next hotel in English. They also provide guides and recommendations. The location is also good. Next to the famous market and close to transportation. It’s also within a 30 min walk of most of the popular places. They similarly rent bikes. The room was big with a queen sized bed and relatively soft. Everything was clean. However, the bathroom was too small - my knees nearly touched the wall when I sat on toilet and I kept hitting the shower wall whenever I took a shower. For context, I am only 5’5 (165cm). They also do not provide toiletries as part of a sustainability effort (other than the body wash/shampoo/conditioner). They sell them for a low price, but the cotton pads were poor quality - I would recommend bringing your own. The WiFi isn’t great, my phone kept disconnecting. The tv does have Netflix. The walls are very thin. It is was not a big issue for me as far as sleeping, but I think it’s possible that I just got lucky and was surrounded by respectful neighbors. But it also made me subconscious about how much noise I might have been making when I was using the television. I didn't have a poor experience, but I would probably try a different place if I go back.

Staff, bar, and location was great.

Great location, everything we wanted to see in Kanazawa was walkable. The staff were absolutely lovely and welcoming. The cafe itself is really cool. The room was comfortable with everything we needed. It's a little bit dated, and the bathroom is small, but everything was perfectly clean and I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again or recommend it to others. Overall 5/5.
