    That the onsen is in another APA hotel

    Great place, clean and provides all you need within walking distance from main attractions in the city.

    Far from station, the parking fee is paid separately.

    Close to shops and restaurants even some tourist location.

    A nice stay in Kanazawa

    The room is super tiny - it was great for me but I have trouble imagining two people in it. It is very warm inside - the AC was off for November (it is a heating season already, despite twenty something degrees Celsius outside), but you can easily open a window so that is a plus. Toiletries are provided, but there is no body balm. No English is spoken.

    The hotel is conveniently located not far from the main attractions, and you can easily walk around the entire city from there. There are multiple stores around to buy provisions. The staff is very helpful and eager to provide support. Trash is taken out on a daily basis. Just watch out: there are four other APA hotels around, so I had trouble finding the correct one on day one.

    I don't like Katamachi during the night, so was aware if it will be noisy in the hotel, but it was really fine! So no problem

    I really liked our bed it was so wide and soft, we both slept well. Liked instant coffee as many Japanese hotels have green tea only. The bathroom was nice, a little bit small, but I really like the design and material is made of. Hairdryer was perfect!

    The first hotel we booked had water liking issued. They just informed us at the same day we checked-in. They transferred us to another property, near to Ishikawa station. We had lunch buffet, it was ok, But we did not try breakfast and dinner buffet, because it was the same menu (plus only several additional menus) and the cost so high.

    The bed is too soft for me, so I felt a bit uncomfortable.

    The room is clean and daily cleaning service is good. The location is near to the Sri river where is a good spot for viewing cherry blossom, also not far from downtown.

    While a bit away from the center, it was quite close to several city attractions. The staff was friendly and super helpful. We went out to visit Kenrokuen Garden after the check-out, and left the luggage with the hotel. Due to strong rain, we came back quite wet and they allowed us to return to our old room for a hot shower and changing into dry clothes without any extra cost.

    The rooms are a standard size for Japan so not very big. Breakfast was ok, but would better be a buffet.

    The hotel is located very close to the center of Kanazawa and to the Kenrokuen Gardens. The hotel is clean and looks well-kept.

    The air-conditioning wasn't working. I spoke to reception, who didn't seem surprised or to care. No air whatsoever was coming out. It was 27c at 6 pm, and the rooms were so tiny that with 2 people, it heated up very quickly. When I asked for another room with air-conditioning that worked, I was told that was not possible. I got offered 2 options instead. Get a refund and book at their sister hotel for an extra $60 a night or a fan. Eventually, we took the fan. We could open the window with a little bit of force, which offered some relief. But we won't be staying there or an APA Hotel again

    Great location. Waking distance to Castle, museum and lots of eateries.

    The rooms were too small for two adults. There were no closet. There were no room to walk with two suitcases. The bathroom was the smallest I have seen in Japan. The cleaning was awful, the dust after cleaning was stuck on my new suitcase and we had to use a humidifier because the air was awful.

    The area is very interesting and the closeness to Shinjuku station.

    The fact it was a bit squashed.

    We had a good city view from our room. It was pretty standard in terms of amenities. We had v little to do with staff due to the situation of the reception and the lift but when we did it was good.. It did feel a bit cramped but we understand that space is limited by the cost. BBC TV news was great except often there was a voice over translating into Japanese.

    The rooms are a bit small, but still a good size for Japanese standard. The breakfast could be improved.

    The hotel itself is very beautiful and well kept. The hotel is located very well, close to the city center. The staff was really helpful and they even ordered a lot of taxis for us.

    The location was a bit separated from the main market. There is no sauna and onsen in this hotel, so if someone is traveling to the onsen town, it becomes necessary in the hotel.

    The room was specious compared to other hotels, clean and comfortable.
