Family Hotels & Resorts in Shirakawa from AU$90

"The hotel was simple and clean. Our train came in the morning and the desk was able to hold our bags til check in. The room suited our needs. The heater wasn’t cranked up like most other hotels we’ve stayed in around this time, thankfully. We were only staying overnight so we didn’t have much baggage with us, but tho the room may be that of the typical business style hotel, I appreciated the little nook on the far end of the desk which could perfectly situate a medium size luggage or even two carry on rollers. The location was good. The hotel is about a 15 minute walk from the train station along the main road. From there, most of the main sight/attractions are also 10-15 mins or so out in either direction (higashi chaya, omicho market, nagamachi, Kanazawa castle, etc). I believe there are some convenience food for purchase in the lobby, but there is also a 7-11 across the intersection and a Lawson and Fami Mart a few blocks back towards the station. There’s also a drugstore in that general area. The Main Street that takes you from the train station to the hotel hosts a lot of shopping and eateries. "

"The hotel is very well situated near to the train station and it’s very pretty! The room is a very good size and it was clean! The onsen was also pretty so we had no trouble spending 15 minutes alone in our separate baths (1 for men and another for women). The staff were also extremely friendly and the free sake, plum wine and tea in the evening was a pleasant surprise "

"Room was excellent in size and cleanliness. Staff was also very courteous and helpful most of the time. The dining room staff was outstanding. The one major faux pas was that my misplaced her walking cane somewhere in the hotel during our initial check in. We were staying for four nights but the cane was not found. However, two days later, we received an email indicating they had located the cane. The message did not indicate where the item was located but we were leaving Japan in two days so that notification was of no consequence. I tried to respond to their message but was not able to do so in English, although the message from the hotel was written in both Japanese and English. "

"Room is spacious. Osens have similar temperature, not particularly appealing."
