5-Star Hotels in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan

The lobby is grand and the rooms are spacious. There are many staff members in the lobby who guide guests to the elevators. They had already prepared three beds, which was a nice touch. The pictures and description showed separate shower and toilet facilities, but the triple room we got didn't have that, which was a bit inconvenient. When I checked in, I asked for a higher floor and was told it would be on the 17th floor, for which I expressed gratitude, but it turned out to be the lowest floor for guest rooms. Breakfast was noisy and chaotic, and the variety was limited. The attention to detail needs improvement; there was dust on the wall hangings.

The location is excellent, directly connected to the mall, and Kanazawa Station is literally next door, making it extremely convenient for getting around. The room was very spacious, clean, and comfortable, which made the stay even more enjoyable. Overall, a great choice for both comfort and accessibility. Would definitely stay again.

Hakuchoro is a classic in Kanzawa, the decor is very tastefully done and the overall atmosphere has character.  It’s onsen is natural spring water and though the bath are relatively modest, it never gets crowded.  They provide free bus shuttles to and from the Kanazawa station and is a very helpful feature. Rooms are large and well appointed and everything in the fridge - water, tea, orange juice and beers are free and topped up everyday. The stained glass in the lobby area and in the rooms are nice touched included the very nice pottery ware used for breakfast! Breakfast buffet spread is both western and Japanese and they even now have sparkling wine and sake for breakfast!  Definitely has character!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5-Star Stay at Shed Hotel Shed Hotel is a wonderful place to stay. We arrived at Shenzhen Airport around 2:00 pm and were pleased to find that the hotel provides shuttle pickup, which made our arrival very smooth and convenient. We stayed for one night, booking 3 rooms for 6 people. The service was excellent from start to finish. The staff were warm, professional, very helpful, and proactive in assisting us with our needs. The rooms were very clean, well maintained, and comfortable. The beds were especially good, ensuring a restful night’s sleep. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would highly recommend Shed Hotel to anyone visiting Shenzhen. Definitely a 5-star stay.

It was very clean and the room was quiet. It is conveniently located within walking distance of Kanazawa's main tourist attractions.

Upon arrival, the sofa bed was already set up, making the room feel very spacious. The kitchen was fully equipped with pots, pans, an induction cooktop, coffee machine, kettle, range hood, dishwasher, dish soap, and dishcloths – everything you could need. The toilet was separate from the washroom and shower. The shower had great water pressure. I didn't notice any skincare amenities provided in the room, but pajamas, toothbrushes, and razors were available for guests to pick up in the lobby. The lobby featured a spacious lounge and reading area, along with a drink vending machine. Downstairs and a right turn led directly to a food mall. Across a small street, to the left were a hair salon and an excellent seafood restaurant, while to the right was Hyakubangai shopping street. The front desk staff, who I believe was from Southeast Asia, could communicate well in English and had a pleasant demeanor. On a side note, here are some Kanazawa sightseeing recommendations. My child's top pick was Myoryuji Temple. It was reportedly built by the local lord as a covert defense against the central government, featuring many ingenious (though perhaps not very sturdy) hidden mechanisms. Many temples in that area were supposedly established for similar strategic purposes. My personal favorite was Nagamachi, near the Buke Yashiki (Samurai District). It's an area concentrated with former samurai residences – imagine a beautiful Japanese version of a historic mansion district like the Yuyuan Road or Huashan Hospital area in Shanghai. Scattered nearby are art shops, small museums detailing local history, and craft galleries. It’s quite fascinating to explore and learn about Kanazawa's past. There's also a small alley, possibly only open in the evenings, with yakitori izakayas called 'Hashi-something' (Bridge-something)? Higashi Chaya District, on the other hand, felt a bit like a 'tourist street' – the kind you find in many cities, whether genuinely old or a recreation – with somewhat homogenous merchandise. Still, it's very picturesque for photos. The Asano River itself was just like any small river in a Japanese provincial town, with scenery not quite comparable to the impressive urban riverfronts back home in China.

It is close to Omicho Market and has convenient transportation. Typical Japanese hotel with very good service. Dining is great. Is expensive. There are not many rooms, but the rooms are spacious, the Japanese-style tatami rooms, the toiletries are L'Occitane, there is a family style, good appointment time, guoup by group.
