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.

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. 

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!

It's one of the best capsule hotels I've ever stayed. To be honest, I prefer staying at the capsule hotel in Japan than the hostels in Europe. It's very convenient & very well-organized. After 4 pm, the reception will give me a new set of dry towels & pajama. On top of that, a voucher was given for having breakfast at Starbuck. This capsule hotel is super-clean. They clean the facility daily from 11 am to 4 pm. The capsule itself was very comfortable for me to sleep for 3 nights. It's one of the best experience for a solo-traveler who come & visit Japan. If I visit Kanazawa alone again, I will definitely come & stay at this hostel.

The highlight of the hotel is its location. You are right over the train station, but you would never notice it in the room because of the silence. The room is acceptable for two people. Everything is clean and the shower works perfectly. There are tons of great toiletries at the reception. You must do your own check in which might be a little bit tricky but it is not that difficult. The only downside we experienced is that the dryer does not do a great work having to hang a lot of clothes and depending on the heating system.

Our stay in Morino Sumika was wonderful. This hotel is probably one the best Hotel (Ryokan) We’ve ever stayed in Japan. We are so impressed with their service. The staffs are polite and responsive even though language barrier. We stayed in a room with open air bath type with balcony looking at the slope garden and hotel itself. The architecture is stunningly beautiful. Room are spacious and bigger than we had expected. The room layout is great. We are so amazed with the hotel facility and everything in the hotel that we want to spend much more time at the hotel rather than going out. The hotel is about 5 km away from Kagaonsen Station in the area called Yamashiro Onsen. They offer shuttle service which we contact them via email. Yamashiro Onsen is very nice and calm. FYI… Kagaonsen Station is 20 minutes travel from Kanazawa by Hokuriku Shinkansen… very convenience..

It was quite difficult to find the first time, and I walked around a bit, but after I got familiar with it, it was quite close from the station to the hotel. You have to go through the archway to the opposite door (there are many bus stops) and walk on the right for 7-8 minutes. It's just an ordinary budget hotel. I didn't take pictures of the room and bathroom, but the quilt was quite thick. I also ordered breakfast with curry, rice, salad, and bread (pictured). The price was quite reasonable, and it was good overall.

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.

The staff were all very kind. The location is very convenient, right in front of the bus stop. You can also enjoy walking around the Korinbo area. There's a Lawson convenience store nearby. I appreciated the coin lockers in the lobby, the announcements for the bus to the station, and the coffee service. I didn't have high expectations for the location since it's in a busy area with many buildings, but the view from the window was just the wall of the building next door. Since I was traveling alone and only needed a room to sleep in, it actually made me feel more relaxed and allowed me to sleep well. I would definitely like to stay here again on my next trip.

I had a comfortable stay. I stayed in room 509. The view from the window isn't great because it's in the next building. The amenities are minimal. It's very clean, with a three-piece unit bath. Hair dryer available. Amenities available. Mini coffee maker available. ◎ YouTube and Netflix are available on the TV. Outlets available. USB available. Breakfast is decent, and the coffee machine is decent too. The staff are all very nice. Everyone's smiling. 😄 A famous conveyor-belt sushi restaurant is right in front of me. If you want seafood, skip the market and go to this place, it's my #1 or #2 pick. Also at the intersection is Akadama Honten, a long-established Kanazawa oden restaurant. You need a reservation to get in, so I recommend the smaller restaurant across the street, which has a line-up. But there are plenty of other restaurants nearby, so you won't have any problems.
