Hotel dekat Shinkobe, Kobe

The service was a little short of. I read reviews that they are very friendly but i felt that it’s not like this. I felt they were very curt in the way they speak and look tired. Nonetheless, the location was good. Just right at the side of the Chinatown. The hotel is very budget not matching to its price, considering that I’ve been to 4 hotels during my stay. The lights goes off quickly at the foyer. The water flow was small. But it’s ok, it’s eco-friendly i guess. The miso soup at breakfast was the yummiest. The carpark was expensive and they will charge you if you arrive early or leave the car at their carpark accordingly after the check in and out hours. This is understandable but this is where the hotel lost some sense of touch here.

Lokasinya berada di area yang sangat ramai, 8 menit berjalan kaki dari Stasiun Hanshin-Sannomiya, dan tepat di seberang Don Quijote. Jika Anda ingin melakukan sesuatu di malam hari, Anda bisa langsung menuju ke seberang jalan untuk berbelanja. Kamar-kamarnya baru, dengan area basah dan kering terpisah. Tempat tidur tambahan dapat ditambahkan untuk anak-anak, dan bahkan keluarga beranggotakan tiga orang pun tidak akan merasa sempit. Hotel ini menawarkan es krim gratis mulai pukul 20.00 hingga 22.00. Sarapannya juga cukup enak, dengan buah-buahan yang sangat manis. Saya sangat menyukai jeli jeruk mereka – sangat sehat dan lezat!

Our stay in this hotel was great! I wish we stayed here longer than one evening. Our traditional Japanese room was very spacious and had two separate toilet rooms attached as well as a bathroom. The view from our room was amazing! And sitting area before the huge windows even had a massage chair and a vanity. The shoji doors showed some signs of wear but everything were very clean. Our kaiseki dinner was spectacular and incredibly tasty. But I wish there were some instructions for foreigners how to enjoy it properly. Our server didn't speak English and we didn't speak Japanese so there was a minor misunderstanding but everything was resolved 😅 I'm definitely a fan of such kind of a meal now! We visited all the hot springs that are available in this hotel and it's sister hotel across the river. I liked the silver indoor spring in our hotel and gold outdoor spring in sister-hotel the most. Hot springs are closed after 24:00. And open from 6:00 to 9:00 nest morning. Unfortunately they are closed from 9:00 to 12:00(check out time) which make it impossible to enjoy them in the morning for those who prefer to sleep in(( Would definitely reccommend the stay for relaxing and luxurious experience.

Lokasinya bagus dan fasilitasnya juga luar biasa, serta stafnya juga hebat! Lokasi hotelnya sempurna, saya akan kembali lagi di masa mendatang. Kecuali kamar yang kami tempati dengan pemesanan kedua berada di lantai 19, di seberang area lift, dan pada malam hari terdengar suara bising, dentuman keras, terus menerus, dan staf memberi tahu kami bahwa itu adalah suara dari sistem pemanas di lantai atas. Suara itu cukup keras untuk membangunkan kami dari tidur nyenyak. Staf shift malam menyelesaikan masalah dengan memberi kami kamar baru untuk tidur, beberapa pintu di sebelahnya. Cukup tenang bagi kami untuk tertidur dan kembali ke kamar semula untuk mandi dan check out. Kemudian di pagi hari saat kami check out, staf hanya memasang wajah datar dan mengatakan maaf atas hal itu. Saya mengerti bahwa staf pagi tidak dapat berbuat apa-apa selain mengatakan maaf, tetapi itu bukan sikap pelayanan Jepang yang biasa saya alami. Terima kasih kepada petugas Watanabe karena telah membantu saya mengatasi pemesanan ganda dan memenuhi permintaan yang kami ajukan pada hari pertama. Pemandangan pelabuhan Kobe sangat menakjubkan, kami sangat menyukainya.

Book a female dorm room for 4 people, but I was alone so have the room for myself. The bed is futon style, a thin foam and then the futon mattress itself. We get a new white sheet upon check in. There's a thin full body mirror, small rack for suitcases and personal belongings, but if you need to, there's also safe box near staff room. The female dorm room is on the 2nd floor, next to the shared kitchen so you can kinda hear other guests cooking or working on their laptop with the wifi. You can have your coffe, tea, cup ramen and even light cooking is allowed as they provided the pans, and also some seasonings. The sink and the toilet is next to it, hairdryers are available and the toilet has bidet seat. The shower room are on the b1f floor, which a little bit of hassle because you have to pass the staff room everytime. You can wash & dry you clothes too in the utility room next to it, but I dont know if they charge or not. Another kitchen and TV room is also here. Rental towels, bath robe, one time use shaver are also available. Over all a pleasant place if you only looking to for a place to sleep, and wash your self. It's 5 minutes walk from Oishi station. There's a small river near too which also a nice place for a small walk.
