the entrance of the hotel is magnificent; however, we had requested a room with a large bed for a 5-night stay; we were placed in a beautiful room with two beds separated by a closet. Big negotiation to change, we are tired and accept a room on a higher floor with a large bed but a cramped bathroom, toilet against the wall, stained and very damaged carpet, identical armchair, and a small room; finally, after 2 nights, we are changed the hotel is aging and the rooms deserve renovation it is clean like everywhere in Japan and the location is ideal

I stayed here for 3 nights and had a wonderful experience. The front office staff were very polite and friendly, always smiling and ready to help — just like the great Japanese hospitality you would expect. My room was clean and spacious, which is larger than many other hotels in Japan. The housekeeping team did a very good job keeping everything tidy. I also enjoyed the Club Lounge, which serves breakfast, afternoon tea, and evening Happy Hours with good variety of food and drinks. The location is very convenient, right next to Shin-Kobe Station, making it easy to take the Shinkansen or local trains. I will definitely stay here again on my next trip to Kobe.

The hotel actually has an optimal location for tourists, with the Shinkansen station Shin-Kobe right next to the hotel, and the subway directly beneath the hotel connecting to the major transfer station Sannomiya. Tourist bus tours on two lines are also available at the hotel. Additionally, there are some shops and restaurants as well as a supermarket on the lower floors of the hotel. The rooms are in a somewhat outdated style reminiscent of the Crowne Plaza from a few decades ago, but they are very clean and quite spacious. Breakfast and club access can also be added. I did that as well. The offerings in the club are actually quite nice and extensive, the staff is friendly but disorganized, apparently lacking guidance. When I arrived 5 minutes before the actual opening time of the club during coffee time, everything was nicely prepared, I took some snacks and a tea, but was then asked to put it back since it was not yet 3 PM - a truly unique experience worldwide. On the first evening, there was also an extensive buffet with many snacks and drinks. On the second evening, I was asked to wait for an hour in my room due to seating arrangements (!) and that they would call me then. I did not do that and got myself a drink and a snack and sat in the inhospitable waiting area. I canceled the booked club services for the following days.
