Hotéis 4-Star em Hyogo Prefecture, Japan

The hotel's location is absolutely fantastic! I stayed for two consecutive nights during my three days in Kobe, and downstairs, there's everything you could possibly need: drugstores, convenience stores, restaurants, and shopping malls. It perfectly caters to all my needs for gourmet food, beautiful sights, shopping, and even collecting anime merchandise! I had a blast during my days in Kobe. It's just a few minutes' walk from the hotel to the train station, and I visited the art museum, the seaside, Kobe Animal Kingdom, and Nunobiki Herb Gardens – all were great. Finally, taking the bus to Osaka Airport was super convenient, just a little over an hour. The room was exactly as pictured and described, and I slept wonderfully. The pour-over coffee in the lobby was delicious, and they offer free drinks and ice cream after 8 PM every night, which shows how thoughtful this hotel is.

The location is great, just a 7 to 10-minute walk from Sannomiya in the city center. Breakfast at Matsuya next door to the hotel offered four good options. Most importantly, the price was very reasonable, and the room size was decent for a solo traveler. Overall, it's a good accommodation choice in Kobe. Ctrip's hotel navigation was slightly off, taking me to the back entrance, but it's actually right on the main street, and the location is excellent.

This hotel is quite close to JR Sannomiya, Hankyu Department Store, and the bus stop for Kansai Airport, though you'll need to cross a couple of traffic lights. It's a bit further from the bus stop where you arrive from Kansai Airport in Kobe and the bus stop for Arima Onsen, but overall it's acceptable, as Kobe is small and walking with luggage isn't a problem. Montbell and Patagonia are just a 2-minute walk away. It's an older hotel, but the exterior is very grand. The foreign front desk staff speak excellent English. You can store your luggage on the day of check-out and also before check-in. For under 300 [currency, e.g., Yen/CNY] without breakfast, it's fantastic value for money for a one-night stay.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Hotel Vischio Amagasaki, and I must say it was an exceptional experience. From the moment I stepped into the hotel, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a welcoming atmosphere. The hotel's modern and stylish design impressed me right away. The attention to detail and thoughtful touches throughout the property created a comfortable and chic ambiance. The rooms were spacious, well-appointed, and impeccably clean, ensuring a relaxing and enjoyable stay. The staff at Hotel Vischio Amagasaki were incredibly friendly, professional, and attentive. They went above and beyond to cater to my needs and make my stay memorable. From helpful recommendations for local attractions to efficient check-in and check-out processes, their level of service was top-notch. One of the highlights of my stay was the dining experience at the hotel's restaurant. The food was exquisite, showcasing a fusion of local and international flavors. The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of delicious options, catering to different dietary preferences. The hotel's location was also convenient, with easy access to public transportation and nearby attractions. Whether I wanted to explore the city or relax in the hotel's spa facilities, everything was within reach. Overall, I highly recommend Hotel Vischio Amagasaki to anyone visiting the area. The combination of exceptional service, stylish accommodations, and delectable dining options made my stay truly memorable.

Perfect quiet onsen resort to unwind and relax. The kaiseki dinner was a highlight and buffet breakfast offered a great variety. Onsen is not too big, not crowded during our stay but probably will if it gets busy. The room was a decent size with good air conditioning and being away from the busy streets made for a peaceful stay. The only downside was the bathtub leaked whenever we showered. Free parking is available, though it’s located underneath the property so it’s best to drop off your bags first if you have a lot of luggage.

Kobe is an excellent destination for a comfortable family trip with kids. It offers mountains, the sea, cable cars, parks, an aquarium, a Ferris wheel, night views, and shopping. We chose this hotel purely for its convenient location, especially with children. It's right above Sannomiya Station, Kobe's largest transportation hub (buses, private railways, JR trains all in one place), making getting around incredibly easy. The room wasn't huge but perfectly adequate. It's a shame we weren't assigned a high-floor room this time; we would have loved to enjoy the city's night view from up there. I hope Trip.com can pay more attention to requests from Black Diamond members. We look forward to visiting Kobe again, and if we're not staying overnight at Arima Onsen, this hotel will definitely remain our top choice for 2-3 nights.

A good ryokan. The room was large and comfortable, and the staff were polite. Even though the hotel is very old (you can feel it in places), it's very clean and cozy. The koi on the terrace are a bit of a mixed bag: The koi are beautiful, but they look scared and have very little space. I didn't get any aesthetic pleasure from them – I was more worried. Pros: - Amazing service - Very atmospheric room - Fantastic kaiseki dinner - Good breakfast - A pass is provided for all local onsens (you'll need to pay a symbolic 400 yen per visit to the onsens, but there are no restrictions on how many onsens you can visit, and you can even visit them for a couple of hours after check-out). Cons: - No smoking in the room or on the room's terrace (this is probably because their Gonzaemon hotel, where you *could* smoke, burned down nearby). - The air conditioner only heats the main room; the other rooms (hallway, bathroom, toilet) are very cold. - The hot tub is very small (it's photographed in a way that makes it look bigger). - The convenience store (combini) is very far away. - There are shared hot springs and a private bath in the adjacent building (you need to book in advance, and the last entry is at 11 PM). - The yukatas are rather simple compared to other local ryokans.

Located close to the station, with department stores, hot springs, and walking paths all within walking distance, you can enjoy yourself all day long without having to travel far. Because it was a day off for the main theater, there were few guests, and the staff were exceptionally helpful, making for a very comfortable stay.

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 hotel is located in a somewhat remote area on a mountain, but they offer a shuttle service. We called the hotel from the visitor center, and a car arrived within minutes. Since we had stayed at another onsen hotel the previous night with luggage storage, we asked the driver if he could take us to collect our luggage before checking into Arima Princess Hotel. He readily agreed. The service was excellent. The hotel has indoor red bath (lighter) and silver bath, but unfortunately, there's no open-air bath. They also took us to the station when we left.
