Detailed Reviews
This is a neat and tidy hotel central to all the sights but the room is the smallest I've ever encountered. We had a double room, but it was so small we had to put one bag on the bench next to the TV and the other on the bedside table, if you were to place them on the floor there would simply be no room to move. That said, the staff were very friendly and it is right in the middle of town so there are lots of eating options nearby. The breakfast option at Seattle's Best in the lobby is not great value, try the German Bakery just up the road. On the plus side it has a great onsen on the premises, the outside one is particularly pleasant. However, overall I would have to mark this place down on the miniscule size of the room, it's just not practical.

I stayed in Kanazawa one night and choose this hotel since it had a very reasonable price. I was pleased with the value for the price. The room was very small yet organized. The sheets were crisp and clean and the bed was comfortable along with the pillows. The windows opened and this is important for me since I hate not to have fresh air. The room had a tea pot and a small fridge. The wireless worked great. The front desk staff was nice and friendly and there is also a Seattle's Best Coffee shop in the lobby of the hotel.
The location is great and it is in walking distance to the attractions. The hotel is also on the main bus routes. I actually walked back to the train station today since I had light luggage. It was a 35 minute walk.
The hotel also has an onsen (spa) on the 14th floor and it is complementary to guests. There is a male and female side and there are hot pools and a sauna. I also had a 60 minute good massage for about $50.
Good location, good room, and good price all made it great for my visit.

Although I spent only one night there, I liked the hotel. The room is tidy and the roof top outdoor bath is awesome. In addition, the access is very easy as a bus from Kanazawa Station takes you very close to the hotel property. There are a couple of APA Hotels nearby, you may need to pay a bit of attention. I believe the bus fee from the station is ¥200. From the hotel, main sightseeing spots are in the walking distance such as Kenrokuen Garden, Kanazawa Castle, Ohmi Market. Also dining options are available nearby and also you can take a walk toward Kohrinboh area.
I marked 4 Stars. One negative point was the breakfast. It is served in buffet style and you can choose what you would like to eat. I tried some scrambled egg, but those are not hot since there was no lid to keep it warm. Except that, I really enjoyed a stay at APA, and definitely my choice when I visit Kanazawa again.

The hotel is in a great location but that's about it. The double rooms are the tiniest I've ever seen, quite impossible for 2 people to stay in the room at the same time. The bed is only slightly bigger than a single & it's against the wall so you have to climb over your partner to get out of bed, there's also no place to put your bags we had a suitcase & had to ask the hotel to keep it for us in the lobby. I certainly wouldn't stay here again

For some reason all accomodations in Kanazawa were booked. There only were some rooms left at this hotel. When we entered the room we thought we opened a closet. Smallest room I have ever been into in my entire life. Besides this the matras of the bed (occupying 90% of the room space) was of an annoying uncomfortable metal spiral type. And also for me too short, but I'm tall... Carrying two suitcases was impossible to handle in the given space.
I do now understand why this hotel was the last available one...
On the positive side, although small as well, the shower was very hot and powerful.
Recommandations? Stay away from here

I really liked this hotel. Yes the rooms are tiny but that is quite standard in much of Japan. If you're a family staying in Japan then I would recommend booking suites or going after rooms that are really quite large by Japanese standards.
Having said that, our room here was probably the smallest double room we've had to date, mainly because there isn't much room between the desk and the bed so it felt quite squishy.
Apart from that, everything was great. The room was spotlessly clean, it had the usual amenities, hairdryer, TV, decent wifi and LAN cable, comfortable bed and powerful hot shower/small bath, bathroom products, robes etc.
Check in was friendly and quick, and location was great, a short bus ride from the train station but within walking distance of all the tourist sights with lots of bars and restaurants nearby. We stayed here for two night and would stay again unless another option that looked great for the same price came up.
Breakfast wasn't included in the rate but was served downstairs in the cafe on the ground floor. We saw it on the day that we were leaving and it looked great.
There was also an onsen/spa facility which looked good but we didn't have time to use it. From memory there are separate outdoor and indoor facilities for men and women.

The APA Hotel Kanazawa Chuo (one of several APA hotels that are near each other in Kanazawa) has a nice spa that includes a hot-spring-fed outdoor bath on its roof (actually, two - one for men and one for women), as well as indoor baths and saunas. Very nice! The hotel is conveniently located for exploring Kanazawa, within easy walking distance of the Nagamachi samurai district and Nishi Chaya district. I enjoyed the walk from the hotel to Kenrokuen, Seisonkaku, and other attractions in that area, although some people might prefer to use public transportation to reach those locations. My room was small, but very comfortable, and English-speaking staff at the desk were helpful.

Stayed in this hotel for one night. It's a very clean and modern hotel. Abundance of shopping malls and restaurants within walking distance. Only point to note is that the room (twin share) is small and I had to shift the furniture a little to accommodate two luggage.

Room is tiny, you can't move as usual when you have a lot of stuff. Washroom is extremely small too. Location is very good as located in the heart of the city. A big mall is opposite to the hotel. They have spring on the top floor, indoor and outdoor. of course, you cannot expect a good view when Spa becoz in the city.

This hotel is located almost halfway between Kanazawa's amazing Japanese garden and the quirky 'Ninja Temple', and both are easily reached by foot (or by hopping on the loop bus, which goes near the hotel).
The rooms are well designed so that even though they aren't spacious somehow I found a place for everything. The mattresses are firm (in contrast to the APA Nagoya Sakae) and there's the usual free wifi, LAN, and air conditioning.
As in every APA, there's an onsen, but there's a pattern that the nicer onsen (shown in the official pictures of the hotel) is always reserved for men, and as a woman you end up in a smaller, more basic one.
This was also the first APA in which I noticed the 'patriotic Japanese' revisionist history essays they offer in every room (in English and Japanese). Turns out the owner of the chain is an extreme right-winger and writes them under a pen name and they're available in every room in every APA hotel. (Google Seiji Fuji for more.) So I guess I won't be staying there again.

"We faced the back of the hotel towards the castle park-rooms facing the main street of Katamachi could be noisy. Twin bed rooms generally are larger and more comfy for westerners than the semi-doubles provided in many Japanese "double" rooms."Read full review
