Hotel is located in a convenient area where there's a supermarket beside it and a sheltered multi storey carpark for travellers who are driving to park at a reasonable rate. Amenities are within 15 minutes walking distance. Hotel Breakfast selection is limited but hotel room is clean and well-equipped. Highly recommended!
The rooms were a good size and even had a couch to sit on in them. The bathroom was small but clean and sufficient. The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel was close to food spots and the train station. It was a good location and would stay again if in Kobe.
This is a lovely hotel, right near to the station. Our room was a little small but also very comfortable. We enloyed the public areas of the hotel and especially the 5pm happy hour offering. There are many dining options nearby with good quality of food and reasonable prices.
Public area have many kind of drink can choose and it is free! The room design is modern & clean, very comfortable:)

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Staff were great and location was pretty good. They let me check in early! However, I was disappointed that the room was dated and not very clean. The shower had mold stains and the aircon was packed with dust.
This place has the most unique happy hour..... essentially it is a free of charge happy hour with free wine and liquor and snacks in the lobby/restaurant area! The staff even say you can bring some snacks and a drink to your hotel room!
Very helpful staff.
I absolutely loved this hotel. The staff are so respectful and courteous! I received a final bow as the elevator closed on my way out from checkout. I got a lil teary-eyed. This place is amazing and so convenient to everything…shops, grocery store connected to the building, delicious bakery around the corner, awesome restaurants nearby. Rooms are so nice with super clean and modern accommodations! Yes!!! I will stay here again!
The human touch of offering drinks, snacks in the evening is wonderful, it gives the day a good ending. Like the space within the building design, and the use of cafe tables for eating take out snacks, complimentary beverages give tourists like my family a good chance to get back to hotel, refresh and out for sightseeing again. Very near, almost next door amenities, train and having the mountains visible just behind the hotel is a rare relief. A good relaxing stay.
