In 3 dagen veel van Kanazawa kunnen zien.
Pros:

Goede locatie in de stad. Smaakvol design

Cons:

Duur voor de weinige faciliteiten. Veel verkeerslawaai (enkel glas). Continental ontbijt was teleurstellend.

Odaları ve konumu harika!
Pros:

Kahvaltı gayet iyiydi, personeller de çok iyiydi. Konumu çok güzel, hemen yanında ulaşabileceğiniz bir sürü yeme içme yeri, alışveriş mekanları ve eğlence mekanları mevcut.

Cons:

Çalışma alanı olabilirdi, bilgisayar ile iş yapan insanlar için otelin içinde bir çalışma alanı olmaması çok iyi değil. Odaya muhtaç kalıyorsunuz.

Exceptional stay.
Pros:

It was the best hotel we’ve stayed in Japan. The room is very beautiful, bathroom kits were really nice and breakfast was delicious.

A very nice surprise was that the hotel offered a coin payable washing machine for the guests and it was really useful for us.

Location is great, really close to the main spots in Kanazawa.

Cons:

Nothing, all went well!

Fabulous!! Hope I get the option to visit again!
Pros:

Loved the industrial decor. Room was large and very well equipped. Fabulous toiletries, all made on site. Staff friendly and helpful. Lovely welcome with tea. Choice of 2 Japanese style breakfasts and a continental one. Loved the Genko rice option. Close to Park & Castle. Taxi rank opposite. Can’t fault it. Would live to stay again.

Cons:

Nothing. It was wonderful!

Highly recommended
Pros:

The room is very comfortable with everything you need. Also the location is great for walking around Kanazawa. Classy and curated in all the details.

Cons:

The continental breakfast option seemed less rich than the other two options available. The Spa was not complementary which sounds a bit weird for this kind of hotel.

100% empfehlenswert, außergewöhnlich, in bester Lage.
Pros:

Sehr spannendes, kleines, außergewöhnliches Hotel in bester Lage. Tolle Räume und Betten, Frühstücksangebot ausreichend, das Lounge-Angebot puristisch.

Cons:

Eine Sauna (wer will), die dann aber extra zu zahlen ist. Aber muss ja nicht sein.

Pros:

Camera molto grande, con 2 letti matrimoniali

Cons:

Puzza in bagno
Poca luce
L’hotel era completamente senza strutture: la “spa” (ovvero una vasca all’ultimo piano) era disponibile solo con prenotazione e pagamento aggiuntivo. Ti danno un kimono carino “per girare nella struttura”, ma non c’è assolutamente nulla da girare. Diciamo tutto molto curato, ma tanto fumo e poco arrosto
