Summary

I had a nice stay at “Uan Kanazawa.” Above all, the Japanese modern calm atmosphere was wonderful. There were free drinks and a soba service at night and it was a very attentive hotel. The location was very good and I could walk to Kanazawa Castle, 21st Century Museum of Art, Omicho Market and Kenrokuen. I was able to spend a luxurious time in a space with a Kanazawa-like atmosphere. I would love to stay at this hotel again.
