Gesshin-ji Temple Tours

Traditional hotel, with some modernized features by the lobby, delicious breakfast

Great staff location everything too to bottom excellent

We stayed for 2 nights while in Kanazawa. PROS: Only 5 minute walk to Shinto Shrine and around 15 minute walk from Omicho Market and Nagamachi Samurai District. The area has easy access to the main train station, 15-20 minute walk. Many dining options around, but not a lot to choose from and some good ones require reservations beforehand. The staff is very helpful, accommodating and professional. Room was very spacious enough for 2 people and their carry-ons (not like the tiny rooms of APA Hotels that can hardly fit 1 person) and they were very clean and tidy. The water pressure of the shower is very good. CONS:: The mattress and the pillows were a bit firm, so they weren't the most comfortable ones, even though I travel to Japan often and I am used to different types of mattresses. The bedroom windows had a wall in the middle which made the room seem darker even when there is daylight, & prevented from full window views, but I guess that is the architecture of the building overall. I recommend it to anyone looking to visit Kanazawa, but don't stay more than 2-3 nights since there isn't much to do in Kanazawa overall.
