Negiya Ryofukaku Hotels in Kobe

"The open-air bath was absolutely wonderful. I'd love to go back again, especially in autumn when the fall foliage must be beautiful. Although our room didn't have a bathtub, it was well-equipped with amenities, so we didn't miss a thing. The staff were all incredibly kind and provided excellent service."

Kobe Kitano Hotel Hotels in Kobe

Kobe Kitano Hotel

"The hotel is indeed a bit old, and the facilities are relatively old, but it is still well maintained and clean. The room size is OK, at least a family of three can use it normally. The bathroom is quite large, but the shower room is a bit compact. The breakfast mentioned in the comments is indeed very diverse. It is amazing at first sight, but to be honest, I can't eat it after two bites, but many Japanese come here specifically to eat. Smoking is allowed outside the hotel, but it will be moved to the underground parking lot on rainy days. Kitano Tenmangu Shrine and Kitano Ijinkan Street are not far away, but Kobe is always uphill and downhill, and it is a bit tiring to walk. The hotel service staff is really good and enthusiastic, which really makes people feel very comfortable."

Kobe Luminous Hotel Sannomiya ★★★★
"The hotel is a bit old, but it's clean and comfortable, and convenient for getting around with a supermarket right across the street. The room was a bit small; I was just there for a weekend trip with no luggage, but it might not be ideal if you have a big suitcase as there wouldn't be much space to open it."

Kobe Portopia Hotel ★★★★★
"The room service was excellent, and the shuttle bus was very convenient. The hotel itself was beautiful and comfortable. We took the shuttle with our child to Shin-Kobe, visited Nunobiki Falls, then took the shuttle back to the hotel for lunch. The restaurant environment was also fantastic."

"Great location close to mall and trains. Rooms are very clean and decent size. Unfortunately the amenities are a bit lacking. No gym and only 3 washing machines for the entirety of the hotel. I've seen people queuing for more than half an hour. Still would recommend."
