Top Honmachi Hotel Reviews

Hotel INTERGATE KANAZAWA

8/10 Good

"Very convenient hotel. They could use a deep cleaning of the carpets as there is a strong smell in the rooms and stained carpets. Otherwise super comfortable and convenient for seeing the area. Loved the little lounge and community feel."

Hotel Forza Kanazawa

8/10 Good

"We had booked a Comfort Double, non smoking room we found the room clean, small & comfortable you might need to move a few things around to make it more spacious but that is the same in most rooms of that size in Japan. The shower looks a bit weird looking but once you know how to work it, it was fantastic. The Hotel is a easy 15 minute walk from the train station and there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance from the hotel.The only negative thing was I found the breakfast area a bit chaotic when it was busy. I possibly would stay here again depending on price comparing to other hotels of similar style."

Hotel Torifito Kanazawa

10/10 Excellent

"What is good about the hotel: location - able to walk to most touristic attractions or a very short taxi ride, very clean, the public bath was spotless, the staff do almost anything to make your stay more pleasant, the room small and yet very comfortable and quiet. Overall, a great experience. I did not try the breakfast."

Kanazawa Chaya

10/10 Excellent

"For an authentic traditional ryokan experience in the Japanese tradition of "omotenashi," Kanazawa Chaya is where you will find it. From the time we arrived until we departed, the staff was fully attentive and accommodating. The multi-course kaiseki meals at dinner and for breakfast were delicious and something to look forward to each day of our stay. Conveniently located, it is a 10 minute walk from Kanazawa Station and an easy and interesting walk to Omicho Market and the Higashichaya neighborhood. Very limited number of rooms available so its important to secure your reservation early. Would definitely stay there again."

Hotel Nikko Kanazawa

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was spotless and well looked-after. The staff were very attentive and helpful. We turned up for dinner without a reservation on the off-chance and the staff fitted us in without a word. The hotel is literally across the street from the station (and also from a 7-Eleven) which was very convenient."

Mitsui Garden Hotel Kanazawa

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable room and king size bed, excellent bedding, comfy mattress, only wish was for larger pillows. Good ac, very quiet room. Coffee and tea in room, great service from staff. Absolutely fabulous buffet breakfast and very short walk to omicho market. Will stay here again!"
