It is close to the downtown area and other shopping places
Good service,
ambiance is quite different as compared usual hotels in Japan.
It could use a refresh The walls need a scrubbing. The front reception was a bit short with me Kinda surprising when other reviewers rated them so highly.
I feel bad saying this, but I found the decor really cheesy. I'm sure they put a lot of effort into it, but the effect was just off.
Beautiful and scenic hotel with underground chapel. Perfect for a small wedding.
Hotel room is small, but very good for stay. Staff speaks English fluently
Very central, friendly staff and well stocked breakfast bar
Large bedroom and big bathroom. But building is quite old. Paint in bathroom is peeling off. Room was too warm (room temperature control not working) yet bedding is not layered (one thick blanket).
Very close to kitano 北野 area, and the merica park in the sea port. Super good location.
A very classy place with distinctive look. Rooms are definitely spacious compared to other Japanese hotels we have stayed. The facility is quite limited though: no ice maker, no on-site laundry, etc. The location is great. About 5 min walk to Sannomiya Station (三宮車站), which is a major transportation/shopping/dining hub in Kobe. A lot of things to do in the area. Would recommend anyone who wants to have a unique experience in Kobe on the budget.
Great classic building with a lot of style. No actual AC due to age, but stay was ultimately worth it.
