The superior twin room is 23.5m² and was very spacious. There was plenty of space to open up my luggage on the floor even with two people. It was very clean and comfortable.

Hotel Surroundings

The hotel is located in the downtown area, facing the main street, but the inside of the hotel was very quiet. There are many shops and restaurants around the hotel. There is also a convenience store right next to the hotel which is very convenient. Popular sightseeing spots such as “Kanazawa Castle,” “Kenrokuen Garden,” “Oyama Shrine” and “Omicho Market” were also within walking distance form the hotel.

Staff and Guest

The staff were all very helpful. They explained about the room and facilities very carefully. I saw a couple of Japanese people, but there were mostly Asians and Westerners. I had the impression that there were many families staying.

Access

The bus stop is right next to the hotel, so it was very convenient to move around by bus. Because the hotel faces the main street, there are many taxis and it is easy to catch them. Unfortunately, there is no hotel parking, so you will need to park your car at the partner parking lot for 1000 yen per night. It is a 17-minute walk from JR Kanazawa Station. You can walk if you like, but if you have a lot of luggage, I recommend taking a taxi.

Summary

I had a nice stay at “Mitsui Garden Hotel Kanazawa.” Since the hotel opened in 2019, it was very new and clean. The room I stayed in this time was spacious and well maintained, so I was able to spend a comfortable time. There were a lot of dishes to pick from for breakfast and Kaga vegetables are also used, so I recommend trying the breakfast and enjoy food that you can only have in Hokuriku. Access was good and I was able to move around without any inconveniences. I would love to stay at this hotel again if I get the chance to.
