3-Star Hotels in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan

This hotel is quite basic, similar to an economy hotel in China. The room isn't very spacious, but the details are well-thought-out, and all necessary amenities are available. The hotel's main advantage is its incredibly convenient location; just step out the door to the left, and you're at Kanazawa train station. The ginkgo trees lining the streets in late autumn offer a charming view, making travel very easy. I noticed many domestic business travelers and older students staying there. The hotel has a public bathhouse accessible with your room card, but we were too exhausted from sightseeing every day to try it. Overall, this hotel isn't for a relaxing 'lie-flat' stay, but for those who frequently visit attractions, its location and value for money make it a pretty good choice.

Always been a big fan of the Dormy Inn chain, guaranteed a nice onsen and delicious supper and breakfast. Checking in and out is a breeze. This hotel is located steps away from the JR station as well as bus terminal, very easy to hop on a bus to tour the city. Highly recommended.

Stayed here for 4 nights to visit Kanazawa, Fukui and Toyama. Room is small but sufficient for 2 people. The toilet seems newly fabricated/ installed so it feels newer than the room. The room is stuffy in the winter because theres only a slow wind/ hot room option for the AC. There are microwave ovens, drinks vending & ice machines located on various floors. Even though the hotel is located near the JR Kanazawa station, it is very quiet at night. My favourite part about the hotel is the proximity to Kanazawa station, just 7 mins walk! Perfect for those using the Shinkansen. Opposite the hotel (1mins) is Forus & 100bangi mall with many shopping, eating & omiyage choices there. Omicho market is about 20mins walk, perfect for a fresh bowl of kaisendon!

I stayed here in Kanazawa, and it's about 400m from Kanazawa Station, which is quite convenient. Service: Excellent! The front desk staff were all great and very responsive. The hotel's front desk is on the 13th floor and offers fantastic views, especially at sunset – it's practically a free observation deck. It's also very friendly for train enthusiasts; you can easily set up a tripod to photograph trains, which is a definite five-star feature. Hygiene: Very good, no complaints. Facilities: Parking for two nights was a little over 2000 yen, I've forgotten the exact number. However, there are very few parking spaces, only about 10. If you're driving, I recommend arriving early as hotel parking is first-come, first-served. Environment: Uh, it's a bit too close to the railway line. The soundproofing in the rooms is just okay. I suggest getting earplugs from the front desk if you're a light sleeper (though it's not that exaggerated); the noise is mostly negligible.

The hostel on itself was good, but we had to use many time the dryers because it doesn't dry well. After 2 or 3 times, we gave up and took our laundry back in the room.  There was air-conditioning in the room but you can't select the temperature. It was already hot in the room, so we had to open the windows to have a bit of fresh air.  The car park also is a good option but a bit expensive. 

This was a truly satisfying stay. Before checking in, I had visited Shirakawa-go and was a little disappointed not to see any snow. But then, on my first morning at the hotel, I pulled back the curtains to find it snowing heavily! It was absolutely amazing. I decided right then and there not to go anywhere and just enjoy the snow from the hotel. The hotel is a bit older, but the room was clean and tidy. I had upgraded my room, and it wasn't small at all. The area mentioned in the description probably just refers to the room itself, but the entryway was also very spacious, allowing me to easily open my large luggage. The indoor balcony in front was also quite large, perfect for a family to sit and enjoy the snow. The floor-to-ceiling windows offered direct mountain views, with the river flowing right below. The large floor-to-ceiling windows in the restaurant lobby were even more stunning – it was wonderful to enjoy the snow while dining. Even the outdoor onsen provided beautiful views of the snow and river while soaking. The best part was how few people there were; both times, it was just me and my daughter, so there was no need to book a private onsen. Behind the hotel, there's a walking trail. We explored it that day, and while the heavy snow made it a bit challenging to walk, it was incredibly beautiful and completely deserted. Every photo we took was a scenic masterpiece. Our shoes and socks got wet on the way back, but thankfully, we didn't feel cold. There are convenience stores and supermarkets nearby, making it very convenient to buy food and other necessities. I would definitely recommend this hotel to friends. The staff were also very friendly. Although most of them didn't speak English, they used translation software, so communication was just a bit slow.

They offer breakfast (which, from what I've heard, is delicious), a self-service laundry and dryer, and a microwave. I personally never tried the breakfast as I prefer to eat out. There's a Family Mart convenience store nearby. Since the hotel is located near Kanazawa West Exit, it's a bit far from the main attractions and you'll need to go through Kanazawa Station to get there.

The hotel is in a very good location — the entrance is right inside the station, and there is a 7-Eleven right next to it. The room is not too small, you can easily open your suitcase, and it is very clean. The staff at the front desk provide excellent service and are very lovely. If I have the chance, I will definitely stay here again.

A normal hotel pretty near the train and bus stations. However the rooms are small and the walls are thin that you can hear a sneezing in the room on the floor. The rooms are clean, has small tv and little bath. 一家普通的酒店，离火车站和汽车站很近。但是房间很小，墙很薄，打喷嚏的声音都能在地板上听到。房间很干净，电视和浴室都很小。

Even though I booked the specified room, they gave me a different room, making some lame excuse like the room was undergoing construction. I complained that it wasn't the room I specified, and they upgraded me to a different room. I was disgusted by their attitude of trying to get away with leaving the room dirty if it wouldn't be found out. I also didn't get the sense that the upper management had any intention of treating customers well as part of the service industry.
