Hotels with Gym and Fitness Centre in Kobe

Convenient for a business trip in Kobe. Very close to a main train station. There is a swimming pool available to hotel guests, but unfortunately, the information pertaining to the use of the pool was absent, so I did not bring a swim suit and was very disappointed. The information for this hotel should be updated to clarify what the facilities are and what the conditions are (e.g. obligatory swim cap, use of room towels etc). Guests from overseas will be confused and disappointed, as I was.

We had a great 1 night stay at this hotel! This was a wonderful experience! Although we only spent 1 night here, as this was meant to be an overnight stop between cities in our travel road trip, this left such a good impression on us, that we would like to come back to Akashi just to stay in this hotel again. The architecture and the hotel design is very cool, 50's kind of vibe, but it's new of course. The hotel has a club lounge where we could unwind after the drive with complimentary snacks and drinks, including alcohol, and all was free and unlimited. The room was super spacious and designed nicely, with a huge hot tube jacuzzi, and since we took the ocean view room, the view overlooking the ocean and bridge was just breath-taking 👌 The breakfast was just right, and they totally accommodated my meal requests and accomplished to have a very good result... 5 stars here and I would totally want to come back!

The Kobe Bay Sheraton Hotel & Towers is a luxury hotel that was renovated in 2013, so rooms of the same type are about 40% more expensive than those at the Plaza Hotel. This time, we stayed in an 8th-floor city view room, overlooking the Rokko Liner and River Mall, where there's a Daiei supermarket that I highly recommend. The reception is on the third floor, with a dedicated entrance on the Sheraton Plaza side (strangely, the vents are also located here, so there's an unpleasant cooking smell when you pass by). This entrance leads directly to Island Center Station on the Rokko Liner, making transportation very convenient. There are four front desk teams; their English is generally basic, though an older male supervisor speaks better English. There's also a dedicated concierge desk. Toiletries are provided in the room (including two extra face masks), and a special children's toiletry set is offered if you're traveling with kids. Upon entering, you change into slippers, and there are special slippers provided for the hotel's onsen (hot spring) area. There were welcome sweets. The bathroom is spacious with a separate wet and dry area, and a children's step stool is provided. The room also had a Bible and Mormon scriptures, which I won't comment on. The room's Wi-Fi doesn't require a password, but the signal was poor and kept switching to my roaming signal. The lobby signal wasn't great either, which was a drawback. [embarrassed emoji] The hotel provides two complimentary bottles of water daily; additional bottles cost 100 JPY each. I bought water daily from the Daiei supermarket I mentioned earlier. There's a self-service laundry area on the second floor, which is reasonably priced. The buffet breakfast is served at the Garden Cafe on the first floor. The front desk records your approximate dining time upon check-in. It's recommended to go at your designated time, as you might have to wait for a table if you arrive too early. After being seated, a yellow standing card is placed on your table; simply hand it to the staff when you're finished. The hotel has many guests, including quite a few Chinese visitors, so the breakfast area can be crowded, and there's often a short queue for food. The three-story high ceiling and large floor-to-ceiling windows create a nice environment. The breakfast offers Japanese, Western, and Chinese options, with a decent variety, though the dishes rarely change daily. There are four flavors of ice cream, and their coffee is quite good. Children under 6 years old are not counted in the guest total, which is a nice perk. The buffet dinner, at 5692 JPY per person, is also quite good value. The staff's attitude was acceptable, but a bit mechanical; they weren't as friendly or personable as the staff at the Plaza Hotel.

A very cozy hotel with wonderful breakfasts overlooking the bay and friendly staff. The rooftop offers a magnificent view. The onsen was pleasant. I recommend it. It was a bit tricky finding the exit from the train station, but the hotel staff gave us directions and we managed to find our way. There are a lot of steps when crossing the road, making it impossible with luggage...

The hotel has a considerable history. Situated high in the mountains, the air is pleasant. The Japanese-style rooms are excellent, and the balconies are nice. It has all the necessary amenities for a holiday. The onsen is really good, with many indoor and outdoor baths. Because it's an old and large hotel, there are certainly some areas that could be improved. But overall, it's still acceptable considering the price and the quality of service.

Overall, I had a pleasant stay. The room was spacious, clean, and offered a beautiful view, which made the experience very comfortable. However, I was disappointed that the swimming facilities required an additional charge. The entrance to the lobby was also quite hard to find from the station. Still, a decent stay overall.
