Hotels With Pools in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan

The hotel is a bit far from Sannomiya Station; you need to take a few train stops to get there, but it's very close to the nearest station. The room was spacious and the hygiene conditions were decent. The service was excellent. The hotel is divided into the Main Building and the South Building. I stayed in the Main Building this time, and I felt the facilities were a bit old. There's a FamilyMart convenience store and a few other shops on the first floor, which is convenient if you need to buy anything. The bathtub isn't fully enclosed, so water splashes out when you shower.

I booked this hotel mainly for the view, and it definitely delivered. The west-facing room looks directly out onto the Ferris wheel, making it feel like a living painting from the window. The small balcony was perfect for fresh air and enjoying the scenery. The hotel is located within Meriken Park, offering a quiet escape while still being in the heart of Kobe. There's a free shuttle bus service to and from Sannomiya Station, and you can explore the park right outside the hotel. For shopping at Daimaru and other areas, it's about a 1 to 1.5 km walk through the park, or you can take the free shuttle bus for flexible travel. As a long-standing landmark, the hotel has been around for years. While it has undergone renovations, the lobby and interior still retain a sense of history and age. The basic services and facilities are all fine, but nothing particularly stands out. Considering its location and view, the weekday prices offer good value for money. However, weekend prices are a bit high, so staying during off-peak times would be more economical.

It was worth the trip~~!!! Although it is on the mountain, there is a car to take you to the town at the foot of the mountain. You can make an appointment for a private bath every hour, but there is actually no one in the public bath~ Breakfast, lunch and dinner are all very rich and impeccable~ You can also experience Yukata and tatami. There is a service staff who works in Taiwan and helped us translate throughout the whole process. Very nice and took care of us. Very suitable for children~ You can go to the official website to check it out. The various children's facilities are amazing! ! ! The children had a lot of fun.

I had a wonderful **3-night stay** at Seaside Hotel Maiko Villa Kobe. The location is beautiful, with relaxing seaside views and a stunning look at the Akashi Kaikyō Bridge. The rooms were clean, spacious, and very comfortable. The staff were friendly and professional, and the breakfast was delicious with a good variety of options. Overall, it was a peaceful and enjoyable stay, and I would gladly return and recommend this hotel to others.

Location is not hard to find with clear signages and correct Google Navi - winding on the mountain road but manageable (on the way down though Google led us to a private road but it's not relevant here). The building is gorgeous - a little inconvenient dragging the luggage from the car to the room if you have lots of stuff. We kept the large suitcase in the car and only brought in what we needed for the night. Front desk lady's attitude was a little cold. There's no Futon service though - it shocked us a little that we had to lay out the futon in the Tatami room ourselves. All the Ryokans/Jhalf board hotels we went to would have Futon service during dinner time. Also the room was cold and we couldn't get the A/C to heat up properly; there might not be a heating function at all? There was also loud banging noise at some points (it was windy that day), but thanks goodness someone fixed it before we went to bed. Breakfast and dinner are OK, and meal service is good.

This was my second stay at Hotel Okura and it's definitely the most satisfying hotel I've experienced across all my trips to Japan. Even though it's an older hotel, opened in '89, the interior is incredibly well-maintained. The elevators, especially, are so smooth and fast! We stayed during Chinese New Year this time, and the service was excellent. A bellboy helped us with our luggage up to the room (though it seems this service isn't always available, as it wasn't during my last visit). The hotel boasts unbeatable ocean views, and the back exit leads directly to Kobe Port. While it's not in the bustling Sannomiya area, it's only about a ten-minute walk to places like the Former Foreign Settlement and Motomachi for dining and city walks. Kobe has so many interesting little shops to explore. There's also a shuttle bus service to Sannomiya. I just discovered this time that there's a FamilyMart convenience store right on the hotel's lobby level, which is super convenient. The room was a generous 40 square meters, which is incredibly spacious for Japan. For the same price point, you'd be stuck in a tiny shoebox in Osaka, Kyoto, or Tokyo. The TV now comes with Netflix! (This is a huge improvement over the terrible TVs at places like the Vessel Hotel in Osaka, where I could never get screen mirroring to work and there were no channels). While Kobe might not have as much nightlife as Osaka, my family was happily binging 'Single's Inferno Season 5' in the room. The toiletries provided are Pola, and there's even an umbrella in the room.

We rented a villa-style house with an open-air bathtub. The room was very spacious and stylishly designed. We had to walk to the hot spring in the main building at night (it was average), but we were given a coupon for the ”Jikkai no Yu” hot spring (in the same resort). This hot spring was very large and beautiful, with complete facilities, and is worth recommending.

It was the first time I stayed at Shimahana, but I was impressed by the good service of the New Awaji Group. I was able to fish at Yumesen Kei and caught two cherry blossoms, but they cooked and served for dinner at night and it was very delicious. The rest was processed cleanly and I was able to take it home. Shimahana is located a little far from the opposite bank, but I enjoyed it without any problems because I could pick up and drop off the hot water. I want to go to Hokans again

The service is very considerate, the Japanese-style dinner is exquisite and the portions are generous. The hot spring area is also very spacious and can accommodate more than 20 people at the same time. The breakfast is a buffet with many choices, and the souvenir shop sells delicious food.

I stayed at Plus One. The only disappointing thing was that there was hair in the drain in the bathroom, but the room was clean, the food was delicious, and bathing in the large public bath was very pleasant. I would like to stay again.
