Kobe was lovely - though only one full day, spent in HAT district @ Contemporary Art Gallery, Ando Gallery, Disaster and Human Rennovation Institute. Well worth the time. Evening in Sannomiya also great. We walked around Kitano district too.

"Great hotel very gorgeous and clean. Breakfast was amazing there. Das was super helpful and loved to help out with my six month old while my husband and I ate. Would definitely recommend and would definitely come back. "
"Great hotel, took us a bit to find it but that was only because we had to figure out the labyrinth of tunnels from the train station. Appreciated the fact that it had laundry facilities. "
"Given the price, this is a great place to stay, breakfast is good, location is terrific! Close to the train station, close to many of the main Osaka attractions, close to where most day tours depart, close to food, clubs, bars and anything you may need. The only minor thing I didn't give 5 stars for conditions and facilities is that the bed and pillow were a little too hard, I understand this is kind of a budget stay but if these could be changed for a softer mattress and pillow, this would be by far the best place to stay in the area."
"Le buffet déjeuner était délicieux et toujours plein, même lorsque l’on arrivait vers la fin du service. Les bains étaient propres, nous avions accès à plusieurs options dont un bain de méditation. La chambre était spacieuse pour un hôtel japonais, mais le lit était très dur (nous nous sommes habitués après quelques nuits). Dans l’ensemble, nous avons eu une très belle expérience !"
