About The Legian Seminyak

Hello! 🖐️🖐️ Bali, Indonesia, is known as a resort paradise, with countless luxury hotels and resorts to choose from. As I’m planning a trip to Bali this March, I spent quite some time choosing the perfect place to stay. After extensive research, I decided to book one night each at The Legian Seminyak, Bali and The Club by The Legian Seminyak.

Since these resorts are still relatively undiscovered by many Korean travelers, I wanted to share a detailed introduction before my visit. If you’re looking for the perfect luxury resort in Bali, I hope this guide helps you!


The Legian Seminyak, Bali

The Legian Seminyak is a luxury beachfront resort divided into two exclusive sections:

  • The Legian Seminyak – A suite-only resort with 67 rooms.

Each suite is designed in modern Balinese style by Jaya Ibrahim, the renowned designer behind many Aman resorts. The rooms also feature a separate living space, making them ideal for extended stays.

[About Going-Anywhere]

About Going-Anywhere

A Stay at ANA Crowne Plaza Kanazawa Premium Room

Hello fellow travelers! 🖐️ Today I’m going to share my experience of staying at the ANA Crowne Plaza Kanazawa, an IHG hotel that offers both convenience and comfort. Since it’s located right in front of Kanazawa Station, accessibility is excellent. Plus, the rooms are spacious compared to many other hotels in Japan, making it an excellent choice for your trip to Kanazawa. If you’re planning to visit, read on for all the details!


Arriving at Kanazawa Station

After a long day of traveling, I arrived in Kanazawa by Shinkansen in the evening. As soon as I entered the station, I noticed numerous figurines of Hyakumansan (ひゃくまんさん), a mascot representing Ishikawa Prefecture. The character is shaped like a traditional Japanese tumbler doll and is covered in gold leaf – fitting for Kanazawa, a city famous for its gold craftsmanship.

Another fun discovery at the station was a vending machine selling regional specialties from the Hokuriku area (Ishikawa, Toyama and Fukui prefectures). Japan is known for its unique vending machines, and this one definitely caught my attention!

As you step out of Kanazawa Station, you’ll see the Tsuzumi-mon Gate (鼓門) – a massive torii-style structure that serves as the station’s iconic landmark. It’s a must-visit photo spot for anyone coming to Kanazawa! At night, the gate is beautifully illuminated, creating a stunning visual experience.

I’ve been to many train stations in Japan, but Kanazawa Station stands out for its unique design and cultural symbolism. If you visit, be sure to take some time to explore and take some pictures!

[Book on Expedia]


About ANA Crowne Plaza Kanazawa

One of the best things about the ANA Crowne Plaza Kanazawa is its prime location – it is literally steps away from Kanazawa Station. If you’re looking for convenience, this hotel is hard to beat!

Unlike typical Japanese business hotels, this hotel has a spacious lobby with high ceilings, creating a luxurious and elegant atmosphere. Because it’s part of the IHG brand, it has the classic and sophisticated design you’d expect from an ANA Crowne Plaza.

The hotel is a 19-story building with guest rooms on floors 6 through 18. The front desk is located on the first floor, while the dining and banquet rooms are located on floors 2-5 and 19. Given its status as a 4-star hotel, it’s a popular venue for weddings and events.

Since I booked through the IHG website and have Diamond Ambassador status, I was upgraded to a Premium Room on the top floor (18th floor). The hotel is a bit older, but the corridors and elevators have been recently renovated, so it feels modern and clean.


Inside the Premium Room

Here’s a look at my upgraded Premium Room on the 18th floor! Compared to the standard rooms, this one was much more spacious. It featured:

  • A large round desk, perfect for getting some work done
  • A comfortable sofa
  • Two single beds
  • Two large windows, providing great views and an open, airy feel

Despite the age of the hotel, the room was well maintained and renovated, making for a pleasant and comfortable stay. I only stayed one night and honestly, I wished I could’ve stayed longer because of how nice the room was!

ANA Crowne Plaza Kanazawa Sleep Advantage Amenities

One thing I appreciate about the ANA Crowne Plaza Kanazawa is their Sleep Advantage program. The room came with:

  • A warming eye mask for relaxation
  • Special tea to help you sleep
  • Bath salts for a soothing nighttime bath

These little details really make a difference in ensuring a restful stay!

 

Special Perks: Kaga Bocha Tea Gift

As an IHG Diamond member, I received a special gift at check-in – Kaga Bocha (加賀棒茶), a regional specialty tea from Kanazawa. Unlike regular roasted hojicha, Kaga Bocha is made with tea stems rather than leaves, giving it a cleaner and smoother flavor. The packaging even features Hyakumansan, making it a charming local souvenir!

[Book on Expedia]


Spacious Bathroom & Stunning Night Views

The bathroom was surprisingly large and featured

  • A separate vanity area
  • A tub and shower area
  • Plenty of room to move around comfortably

Since my room was on the 18th floor, the view was fantastic – a panoramic cityscape stretching far into the distance. At night, the city lights created a beautifully twinkling skyline that made for a perfect end to the day. If you’re staying at the ANA Crowne Plaza Kanazawa, I highly recommend requesting a room on a higher floor for the best view!


Breakfast & Dining Options

I usually skip breakfast, but something about hotel buffets always convinces me otherwise! 😆 I made sure to wake up early and check it out, but I’ll have a detailed review of the breakfast experience in my next post, so stay tuned!

Hotel Location & Address

📍 ANA Crowne Plaza Kanazawa
16-3 Showamachi, Kanazawa, Ishikawa 920-8518, Japan


Final Thoughts

In conclusion, my stay at the ANA Crowne Plaza Kanazawa was an excellent experience. Its prime location right in front of Kanazawa Station makes it a super convenient choice for travelers. Although the hotel has a slightly older feel, the rooms are well-maintained, spacious and comfortable.

If you’re looking for a quality 4-star hotel in Kanazawa, the ANA Crowne Plaza Kanazawa is a solid choice. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city!

In my next post, I’ll share a review of the delicious breakfast I had at the hotel – so stay tuned 😊!

Introduction to Craft Root Sokcho Brewery

Hello! 🖐️🖐️ Today, I’m excited to introduce you to Craft Root Sokcho Brewery, a must-visit restaurant if you’re in Sokcho. This place not only brews its own craft beer but also offers an incredible dining experience with a great atmosphere. With spacious indoor seating and a large parking area, it’s an ideal spot for couples, families, and even larger groups. Let’s dive into the details of this hidden gem!


Arriving at Craft Root Sokcho Brewery

As you drive up, you’ll spot the Craft Root Sokcho Brewery logo, guiding you to the entrance. Inside, you’ll find ample parking space, making it convenient for visitors.

The brewery sits on a large property, featuring both indoor and outdoor seating. I visited in the winter, but I could easily imagine how amazing it would be to enjoy a cold beer and delicious food outside during the warmer months. 🍻☀️

The photo zone at the entrance is perfect for capturing memories of your trip! 📸


Inside the Brewery

The interior is spacious, with well-spaced tables that create a comfortable dining experience. The dim lighting and well-placed accents give off a cozy and stylish ambiance.

As you explore the space, you’ll notice professional brewing equipment on display, making it clear that this is the real deal for craft beer lovers.

If you’re familiar with Sokcho, you may have seen Sokcho Beer in places like E-Mart and local resorts. Well, this is where it’s made! The brewery has won several prestigious awards, including the Grand Prize at the Korea Liquor Awards and a Gold Medal at the European Beer Star, one of the top three beer competitions in the world. Only five breweries in Korea have received this honor—impressive, right? 🍺🏆


Sokcho Craft Beer & Special Deals

One of the highlights of Craft Root Sokcho Brewery is its unique beer cans, featuring illustrations of famous Sokcho landmarks. You can purchase these directly at the brewery.

Here are some pricing details:
24-can set: Originally 168,000 KRW, now available for 132,000 KRW
4-can & 6-can gift sets: Includes a free gift box, making them a great souvenir or gift for beer lovers.

If you’re in Sokcho, you can also find Sokcho Beer at E-Mart, Hanaro Mart, and Kensington Resort. But of course, the best way to enjoy it is fresh from the tap at the brewery!

💡 Special Deals on Naver Place:

  • Free Sokcho Beer tasting coupon
  • 10% discount coupon for Dry-Aged T-bone Steak

Dining Experience & Menu Highlights

The restaurant offers a paper menu as well as tablet menus at each table, allowing you to browse food and drink options with photos for easy ordering.

Some menu highlights include:
🍺 Sokcho IPA – 7.0% ABV
🍺 Daepo Stout Plus – 8.0% ABV
🥗 House Salad
🥩 Craft Root T-Bone Steak
🐟 Honey Cod Steak

I had a tough time choosing a beer because the variety was amazing, but each one had detailed descriptions, making it easier to find the perfect match for my taste.


Tasting the Beer & Food

The first to arrive was the beer. While the menu features can designs, the beer is served fresh on tap.

🍺 Sokcho IPA: A beautiful golden color with a fruity aroma and a refreshing taste—absolutely delicious!

🍺 Daepo Stout Plus: A nitrogen-infused stout with an incredibly smooth finish and subtle coffee notes, reminiscent of Guinness.

Next up was the House Salad, which was fresh and balanced—perfect as an appetizer.

Then came the Honey Cod Steak, a Spanish-inspired dish featuring:
🐟 Tender cod steak
🌿 Pesto & aioli sauce
🍯 Honey drizzle for a sweet, tangy kick

The presentation was stunning, similar to what you’d find in fine dining restaurants. The fish was exceptionally soft, and the honey-infused sauce added a unique depth of flavor. Highly recommended!

Finally, the T-bone Steak arrived, served with:
🔥 Charcoal-grilled seasonal vegetables
🧂 Salt, whole grain mustard, and steak sauce

Craft Root is the only place in Sokcho serving T-bone steak, using USDA Prime-grade beef dry-aged for over four weeks. You can even see the dry-aging chamber inside the restaurant, ensuring the highest quality meat.

The steak was incredibly juicy, and I found that a simple sprinkle of salt brought out the best flavor. Pairing it with grilled vegetables made it even better! 🥩✨
