Hyatt Centric Kanazawa
Beautiful room, very comfortable with great amenities. I really liked the water refill stations and the reusable water bottle provided. In a great location for the train station and bus station and next to a good little shopping centre.

APA Hotel Kanazawa Ekimae
The corner room was spacious with nice city view. With extremely convenient location if you are traveling using Shinkansen, train, or bus. The interior decollation was distasteful as Las Vegas. Could use a bit of simplification to be a boutique hotel.
