Kanazawa Manten Hotel Ekimae

About 7 minutes from the train station, as well as the main buses to travel in and outside of Kanazawa (e.g the bus to Shirakawa-go). Staff are nice and helpful. The hotel is pretty big and overall everything is nice and clean. Shared bath is great, very spacious and open at very convenient hours, and even at very early/late hours. Bedroom is in a decent size for one person. Bed was comfy. Wi-Fi worked well :) A few coin laundry machines and dryers at the hotel, they provide free detergent for you to use.

A little old, the panel for the air conditioning was ancient and it was hard to control. There was no option to open the window. There was a big space at the entrance to the room, where I feel like they could have put another small closet to put your items. There was only a very small hanging area by the door.

The public bath / sauna is the star of the show with this hotel. The outdoor bath is comfy and peaceful. The sauna rotates herbal scents between lavender and peppermint. Going to take a bath was my favorite part of the day. The room is slightly large for a business hotel of this type. The toilet/shower unit is pretty average - all the more reason to go down to the bath. The bed was large and comfortable. I used the desk as a work area, and it was find for straightforward business needs. The hotel is a short walk away from the train station, maybe five minutes. This makes it convenient to getting around the city of Kanazawa, as well as the general Hokuriku area.

Nothing stands out that I didn't like - overall a good stay.

I had a really good time there! The most attractive advantage of this hotel is its onsen. I have been sleeping in few hotels with access to onsen, but this one was the best! Also I loved the common room with tivi, where you could relax and had some drinks from automat. The price was affordable. Hotel is located close to the railway and bust station. However it was quite far to the city center but we were going on foot in Kanazawa

The check in started at 14. We were at 1325 and still we had to wait until the time. I was disappointed because usually in most hotels that i visited they were letting us in before time, but no in Japan xd

Since this is a big hotel which is not too far from Kanazawa station, it is crowned and look busy at the beginning of our checking in but the front staff manage its very well, they finish all checking in minutes. The room size is quite good, the cleanliness is good, amenities are OK, facilities in room are OK. The parking lot is inside the building, and it's easy to roll our big baggage from our van. The breakfast is great, they have 2 types of breakfast for you, 1 is japanese and the other is western, it is at your preferable but i think they are both great.

The location is not too far from Kanazawa station but it is still take time for walking. Surrounding view of the hotel is none attraction.

It's a western styled hotel with a public bath/onsen. So it has all the amenities/facilities that you'd expect. Good bed, shower/toilet/towels/pajama's/fridge/small tv etc. etc. But having the public bath is by far it's biggest selling point (at least it was for me!) It's very relaxing after a long day of walking. Absolutely incredible! Location's very good too. it's like <5min walk from central station so it is very easy to get to and drop your bags and to leave from when you move onto a different city/location. They got coin lockers to store your bags too (you get the coin back.)

Great location. 6 min walk to Kanazawa station. This was extremely helpful when we were running late for our shinkansen reservations. Check out was as simple as dropping off the keys in a box and walking away. Hotel facilities were very clean and neat. Staff was helpful with luggage drop off and checking in/out. Hotel was decorated nicely with large windows that showed the green gardens outside. Pajamas and slippers were provided to wear during our stay at the hotel. Toiletries provided in baskets at the front desk. The public onsen was great! Lockers were provided to keep your stuff, instructions were provided for new users, and there were indoor and outside onsens for both men and women. The men's side was quite crowded. I went at 530 AM and there were already 10 other men there, with more incoming. Everyone kept to themselves and got in and out. My wife says the women's side was the opposite and it was nice and quiet so she enjoyed it quite a bit. The Japanese breakfast was mediocre. Western breakfast was better. I'm glad they offered the choice though. Overall, 10/10 would stay again even with the small double rooms.

The double room was actually very small. There are no closets or wardrobes. We made it work, but just mentioning it here for others who are considering it. This is actually the only "bad" thing about the hotel.

It was the best pillow I had had to that.point in the trip. It's very close to the station and was pretty spacious. There's a handy JR local bus. The set menu breakfast was terrific.

Kanazawa is a bigger city than I expected, so the hotel was close to the station, but not so close to the main sites. The baths here were also busier than in other hotels.

Free luggage storage before check-in. Reception staff very friendly and helpful. The public bath was large and clean, there are also an outdoor tub and a sauna. Coin laundry with 4 washing machines and 4 dryers. The room was not large, but it was very clean and there were all the amenities. You can choose between western or japanese style breakfast. The hotels is a 5-minutes walk from JR Kanazawa station.

Very good location near the station. Availing the breakfast is highly recommended! I really love it and it becomes the highlight of my stay in the hotel. Nice view too on the restaurant where the breakfast is being served, especially that it is autumn time during my stay. Also, the public bath is great! I will definitely stay here again on my next visit to Kanazawa. :)

The staff at this hotel were so accommodating although we seemed the only foreigners. They were kind and helped us with checkin , extra blankets and an iron. It’s so close to the station, had two huge singles pushed together and the room was large for Japan. Public bath was also an added bonus. Highly recommend.
