ANA Crowne Plaza KANAZAWA by IHG, an IHG Hotel

Friendly staff, clean and spacious rooms, and location is very convenient to other areas of interest in Kanazawa.

ANA Crowne Plaza Kanazawa is a big, friendly hotel that is easy to find, easy to reach, and comfortable in all the best ways. The staff was very helpful and attentive to my wife and I during our recent two-week stay. We tried one of the in-hotel restaurants, a Japanase traditional style restaurant of the 5th floor. It was splendid, quiet, spacious and beautiful, with a small roof-top Japanese style garden just outside the picture windows. The food was also excellent, served with much attention to traditional practices. Housekeeping, the bell captain and all other staffers we interacted with were excellent. The bar on 19 has a commanding view of Kanazawa downtown, especially nice at night. The hotel has laundry services, but we opted to use a neighborhood coin laundry (which also takes credit cards and some IC cards) about one block away. As usual among Japanese cities, the area around this hotel and the adjacent main train station has many shopping malls, hotels, shops, restaurants and other service businesses. In other words, it looked busy and successful, to us as visitors and foreigners. During our stay, the city celebrated its annual Hyakumangoku festival, which is one of the reasons we stayed in this city. We also explored various interesting districts nearby, and took a tour of a few regional areas of interest. Coming back in the hotel to a comfortable bed and hot shower after walking around a few hours always felt really good! I recommend this hotel.

Great location. Convenient for train and bus stations. Good choices of restaurants nearby. Rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. Good service from staff. Good breakfast. Reasonable price. Will recommend.
