The Hotel Nikko Kanazawa is impressive - we're talking 30 floors of suited-up businessmen and high-end everything. Our room's view from way up above the 17th floor gave us some pretty amazing city scenes. But let's talk real: we visited during a national holiday when everything was packed, so we paid way more than we would've liked (definitely the priciest stay of our trip).

That said, the location made it super easy to explore Kanazawa, and the hotel itself is exactly what you'd expect from a fancy Japanese business hotel. Just a heads up - they do have occasional planned power outages and closures for maintenance, so you might want to check those dates before booking.
