This hotel is a great choice for travelers looking for convenience, especially with its proximity to Shin-Kobe Station. The highlight of the stay was definitely the onsen, which provided a wonderful way to unwind after a day of exploring. However, the dining options left much to be desired, particularly the breakfast quality, which was disappointing. Overall, it represents excellent value for money considering its location and facilities.

This hotel is perfectly situated for travelers using the Shinkansen, located in a quiet residential area just a short walk from Shin-Kobe Station. While the cleanliness of the rooms and facilities is commendable, the dining options, especially breakfast, leave much to be desired. I appreciate the hot spring availability for a relaxing soak after a day of sightseeing, but I found the overall value for money lacking, particularly in the dining experience.

The hotel is ideally located for Shinkansen travelers, just a short walk from Shin-Kobe Station in a peaceful residential area. While the rooms are clean, the overall comfort was impacted by limited amenities and a below-average dining experience. The onsen is a fantastic perk and the staff's hospitality is noteworthy, but the breakfast and dinner did not meet expectations, making it hard to justify the meal prices.

We had an incredible stay, enjoying the traditional Japanese experience this hotel offers. The onsen was a refreshing perk after a day of exploring Kobe. The rooms were a delightful throwback to authentic Japanese aesthetics, but they might not suit everyone’s comfort expectations. The location was very convenient for getting to Shin Kobe station, which made our travel plans smooth. However, there could be more dining options within the hotel.
