Hotel Vista Kanazawa
forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 4.41 out of 5 (1,374 reviews). Guests praise the fairly spacious, clean rooms and the fact that the toilet is separate from the bath. The communal bath, including its changing room, is described as roomy and comfortable, and many reviews also single out the tasty breakfast and the attentive service. Some also note that the water pressure in parts of the women's communal bath showers was weak, which may be noticeable depending on the time of day.
