Kanazawa Hotels with Free Breakfast

This hotel is super close to Kanazawa JR Station; you can even see the train station from your window. In the mornings, opening the curtains to watch trains slowly pull in feels like something out of a movie. The room also has a full kitchen with appliances and utensils, so you can buy groceries from nearby supermarkets or the seafood market and cook your own meals. There's a microwave, oven, dishwasher, induction hob, and pots, making it incredibly convenient.

Brilliant boutique hotel with truly kind and amazing staff.  Only 15 rooms but the staff truly outsize the hotel in terms of what would wow me.  They really make you feel very comfortable and safe.  Great location to visit Kenrokuen! 

The hotel is clean, and the front desk staff are very helpful. There’s a laundry machine on every floor, which makes it very convenient for guests. The only downside is that no hot bath. The location is excellent — Omicho Market is just steps away. Higashi Chaya Geisha District is within waking distance also. Overall, this hotel is good staying at. But, I personally feel hotel rate is at higher price due missing hot bath amenities..

If there's a Daiwa, I'll always choose Daiwa first! This one is at Kanazawa West Exit. Just walk past the entrance of the HYATT Regency hotel on your right, then turn right again, and you're there. I got a random room type, which turned out to be a twin room. I arrived at Kanazawa Station at 13:01 and at the hotel at 13:06. The front desk said there was a room available and checked me in right away, saving me the hassle of storing my luggage. So grateful! 🥹 The toilet is separate, the sink is separate, and the shower room even has a bathtub. The space is plenty big, clean, and tidy!!! Highly recommended!!!

The location is convenient, with bus stops and the bus terminal right downstairs. There are also many department stores nearby, making shopping a great experience. It's not far from Omicho Market and other attractions. The hotel staff are enthusiastic, and the room isn't small; a twin room is just right for two people. The breakfast was a bit average, but the desserts were good.

Turn left at the bus stop along the east exit of Kanazawa Station, then turn left again at the first intersection and walk 200 meters, and you'll find it. The room was clean and tidy, and check-in was handled by a self-service machine at the front desk. Shopping and dining nearby are very convenient. I would definitely stay here again. Overall, I'm very satisfied.

Great location, very close to the station and surprisingly quiet. However, there was a strong BBQ smell in the hotel hallway, likely from the yakiniku restaurant downstairs. It actually smelled quite good! We even ended up eating there. My clothes definitely smelled of grilled meat afterward. I didn't take any photos of the hotel itself, but it had a rather artistic vibe to it.

Very good location for being close to the train station, although it's about a 35-40 minute walk to places of interest. There's a 7-Eleven right next door, and a more complete supermarket and restaurants at the station. The rooms are huge for Japan, the beds are very comfortable, and the bathroom is standard for the country. The hotel has a well-equipped gym and a very nice reading room. They do not clean the rooms until after the fourth night. They are not flexible with check-in; for example, after our 4-night reservation, we rebooked another 4 nights, but they made us wait 4 hours between checking out of the first room and checking into the second room. I think they could have paid more attention to us, since we had booked with them again and on a regular basis, but they paid no attention at all.

I was a bit worried about the room facilities based on previous reviews, but after checking in, I found everything to be great. The breakfast, however, didn't quite live up to its price point, though it was certainly satisfying.

This hotel is clearly showing its age and may not meet expectations for those looking for a more modern or well-maintained stay. While it carries the IHG branding, the overall experience feels dated. One of the main challenges was communication. The front desk staff had very limited English proficiency, making it difficult to get clear directions—especially regarding parking. Guests are required to go to the front desk to ask about parking arrangements, which is not very convenient. The signage outside is also misleading, and it’s easy to mistakenly park at a nearby open-air lot that charges ¥100 per 15 minutes or ¥1000 for 12 hours. The hotel’s designated parking is actually located in a shopping mall, which is not immediately obvious. The rooms themselves are quite old, with worn facilities. The bathroom had a noticeable musty smell, suggesting poor ventilation or maintenance. Amenities were basic—Dove toiletries were provided instead of the more commonly seen Pola brand in Japanese hotels. The air conditioning was also ineffective, which made the stay less comfortable. That said, the hotel does have one strong advantage: location. It is directly opposite Ōmichō Market, making it very convenient for exploring the market and enjoying a great local breakfast. Overall, this hotel may be suitable for travelers who prioritize location over comfort, but those expecting a smoother and more modern stay might want to consider other options.
