Hotel Surroundings

Kanazawa Station is right in front of the hotel, so there are many people walking around. It is a safe area and I often saw tourists coming and going. The hotel faces the main street, but it is very calm and quiet inside. There is a convenience store right in front of the hotel, supermarkets and pharmacies inside the station, and a large department store called “Forus” next to the station. There is even a movie theater in the department store. There are plenty of bars and restaurants nearby, so you can enjoy yourself without having to leave the area.

Kanazawa Station has been selected as one of the most beautiful stations in the world. Here is a gate in front of the station.
