The location is right at the station and there are plenty of restaurants right at the station. The only issue is if you’re planning to wash and dry clothing, the dryer is not very strong. Other than that, everything else was good.

The hotel is right on top of the train station and that makes the travelling super easy. Lots and lots of shopping and dining within the train station. Kanazawa castle, museum, Cha Ya districts and temples are easy to get to via the loop tour bus. The location of the hotel made travelling easier and more enjoyable. Definitely the first choice of accommodation.

The hotel is good - the room is a bit on the small side (but that is fairly normal for Japanese hotels) The hotel can be accessed directly from the Kanazawa train station (no need to go outside - very helpful on rainy days). The area around the station is very tourist friendly - and a quick bus ride can get you all the attractions. It is a great hotel if you like me don’t have a lot of time to visit Kanazawa, but do want to see some this interesting city. I would definitely recommend this hotel

Entrance is a bit not visible but you do not have to exit the station. Room was clean with nice view, no bottled water included. Kanazawa station is a big shopping mall as well so eveything you need is here. You can buy the Kanazawa bus loop at the tourist info centre.

Very convenient location as the hotel is practically on top of the train station. Staffs can speak English and we're very helpful. Beside the check in counter is a table of free basic needs like toiletries, accessories, drinks, ect. We really like this approach as this cut downs on waste and we only need to take what we need.

The hotel is suitable for those who don’t want frills or space . The room was tiny with no window, the pillows seemed to be made of impacted straw and the hardest I’ve ever slept on . I’m glad I was only there 2 nights . The shower however was great and the cleaning ladies lovely , really polite and courteous.

We recently enjoyed a 3-night stay at the JR Via Inn Kanazawa, and we couldn't have been happier with the location and overall experience. The hotel's direct connection to JR Kanazawa Station is an absolute game-changer. Getting around Kanazawa was a breeze, with easy access to buses right outside the station and effortless train connections to places like Fukui. The surrounding area is a vibrant hub of shopping and dining, offering a plethora of options right at your doorstep. Despite its proximity to the bustling train station, I was amazed at how quiet the rooms were. I never experienced any noise disturbances, ensuring a peaceful and restful stay. The rooms themselves were impeccably clean and thoughtfully designed for functionality. While not overly spacious, they provided everything I needed for a comfortable stay. I was particularly impressed with the cleanliness. If you're looking for a super convenient and comfortable hotel in Kanazawa, the JR Via Inn Kanazawa is an excellent choice. I recommend it for its unbeatable location, quiet rooms, and overall value.
