“Modern hotel, good location”

My wife and I stayed here for a few nights. The compact room was larger than most in the hotel, but small for us with two large cases. There was no place to open both at the same time. The double bed butted onto a wall, so only one side was accessible. The bed was comfortable, and the pyjamas fitted okay. Let's say that one size doesn't fit all, Westerners. The views from the high level room were pretty good though. Bathroom was tiny, but there was a good flow of hot water in the shower. WIFI was okay, as well. My Japanese wife handled the room check-in. I didn't understand the process at all. I noted that there were toothbrushes and toothpaste available, as well as tea, a sweet or a soft drink for every night, but it really wasn't my taste. I always have my own toiletries, every time I travel. Also, the lift from the street, takes you up to the lobby where the check-in is electronic. Nevertheless, the hotel is well located and it's easy to get around the City from this hotel. For me, service was not a standout at this hotel, mainly I felt that management weren't actively promoting personal service, just providing assistance on how to use the electronics. I probably would look for a different hotel next time I am in Kobe. But it is a modern experience, if that is what you are looking for.

We chose this hotel simply due to location . I wasn't expecting much but I have to admit the room although small was very clean and comfortable. It actually catered for everything we required during our stay . Location is excellent for exploring central Kobe . I didn't try breakfast. Staff were friendly. I would recommend especially for an overnight stay.

Hotel is in an excellent location right on top of Sannomiya Hanky station with subways and JR within 3 minute walk. The entrnce is basically right outside the ticket gates to Hankyu. The hotel is typical japanese 3/4 star which mean the hotel is well kept, clean and friendly staff . The rooms is also well kept and clean. However some signs of wear in the room. AC is working good and is not very noisy on low setting. There was an air purifier in the room that was very noisy on auto setting. After using a translater app I was able to set it to Eco mode which meant silent. The layout in the room was a bit weird with half the bathroom in the hallway. Meaning the sink and amneties was the first think you see when opening the door. Toilette and shower is in a separate room. Note that if you share room with someone the toilette and shower have glass walls towards the bedside and only a curtain will give you privacy. Not an issue for 1 person but may be awkward if sharing with someone not very close to you. Many amneties are not in the room but can be picked up at the elevator on the lobby floor. Remember to grab what you need. You can choose how often the room is cleaned so you are not forced to follow envirmoental guidelines nor are you forced to have room cleaned every day. The freedom of choice is a good thing. Breakfast is ok. It got a nice selection in the buffet but its not a huge selection. But it was good enough and it did the job. The best part for the hotel is location. The main shopping area is 5 minute away, a nightlife area right outside the door and several mall close by. So you do not need to go far for a meal, a night out or just doing some eventing shopping. With all major trains and subway also running through the are you have everything in Kobe available. Also Chinatown is within walking distance (10-15 minute) . Drawback of the hotel is that the windows isnt very soundproof so even in the top floors you will here the night life. While it didnt bother me a lot as it wasnt any louder that normal trafic it may be a drawback for people who are light sleepers. But the location of this hotel is so good that theres no point staying elsewhere unless on a very tight budget.

“Location or Good Rest?”

Very convenient location at Sannomiya which is in the same building of Hankyu Department Store Kobe, very nice view and easy access to 3 train lines (JR, Hankyu and Hanshin) . Downside here is quite noisy when the trains are passing by starting from 5ish am even though my room is located on 23/F.
