Hotel La Suite Kobe Harborland ★★★★★
"The hotel is very beautiful, the rooms are large and clean, we enjoyed the bar with a jazz singer, the food was delicious. I love the jacuzzi bubblebath and the amenities is awesome all rooms has verandas you can see the beautiful view of kobe tower & port .The only thing I didn't like was the receptionist at the front desk, not friendly, the treatment was not welcoming, you didn't see a smile when greeting."

Explore Accommodation Types in Kobe
Kobe Sannomiya Union Hotel
"The room is quite spacious for a Japanese accommodation. It is suitable for a solo traveler."
Seaside Hotel Maiko Villa Kobe
"My stay here was great! The front desk even upgraded my room, which was a pleasant surprise. The room was more spacious than I expected and very clean. What I liked most was the view from the window – it was excellent, and waking up and opening the curtains in the morning always put me in a good mood. The hotel staff were all very courteous, and check-in was smooth. Overall, I had a very comfortable stay, and I'd likely choose this hotel again next time I'm in the area."
BeachHouse Geragera
"A very beautiful and comfortable beach cottage, and the location is quite convenient, with a Starbucks nearby."

Negiya Ryofukaku
"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."
ANA Crowne Plaza KOBE by IHG
Renowned for its direct connection to Shin-Kobe Station, panoramic city views and full-service facilities. It is one of the most convenient and well-connected hotels in the city.

Guesthouse NALUNOMICHI
"Convenient location, many places to eat at the door, the subway station is very close, the boss is very good, any questions will be patiently answered for you, great"
The Gran Resort Princess Arima
"It's a bit far from the main street, but its elevated location offers beautiful sunset views. The Japanese-style rooms don't have private bathrooms, but you can shower after soaking in the onsen (hot spring). The hotel is a bit old, but very clean, giving a feeling of time standing still, which is quite nice. There's a free shuttle bus to the main attractions, which is very convenient. The large public bath and fishpond are also very relaxing, offering hot, simmered, and cold baths."
Kobe Hotel Fruit Flower
"💢Avoid lightning! The forced consumption at Kobe Fruit Hotel in Japan is too much! 💢 My dears, today we must expose a hotel in Japan. 😡 When I made the reservation, it was clear that the order included accommodation for one adult and one child. However, when I arrived at the site, the staff forcibly charged extra for the child's accommodation. I quickly contacted the Ctrip platform, and the platform called the front desk and communicated in Japanese and clearly stated that this fee would not be charged, but the hotel just did not agree with me. I felt that I was completely controlled by the Chinese staff because I was not proficient in the language. 🙄 During the communication with the platform, the hotel flatly denied that there were any additional charges and insisted that I was staying with two adults. 😒 Moreover, on the day of check-in, the room was not cleaned very well, and the tatami mat, bed sheet and pillowcase were not laid out for me. 🤬 The only advantage of this hotel may be that it has a hot spring, but the local Arima Onsen is also very close. If you want to soak in a hot spring, you can go to experience the more distinctive Arima Onsen. 😒 In short, this hotel is really infuriating. They force consumption and refuse to acknowledge it. Everyone must avoid it. Never choose this hotel, let alone do offline transactions. 💣 #HotelAvoidance #JapaneseHotel #MandatoryConsumption"
Kobe Port Tower Hotel
It offers simple, clean rooms with essential amenities, making it a practical stay for both tourists and business travellers.
Centurion Hotel&Spa Vintage Kobe
"This was our family's first trip, just the three of us. We were looking for a room-only stay, and this place was perfect. The public bath was really nice too. The best part was the Kobe night view from the rooftop at night – it was absolutely spectacular."
Kobe Marriott Hotel
"We chose this hotel expecting the standard of a 5-star Marriott, but our expectations fell completely short. During our stay, it was my birthday. However, the hotel didn't show any gesture of recognition whatsoever—no card, no small amenity, nothing. For a 5-star hotel of a well-known international brand, this was quite surprising. What shocked us even more was the situation with flowers. I was given a bouquet, and it turned out the hotel didn't have a vase to provide for the room. When I asked for help, the staff suggested… going out and buying a vase myself. For a 5-star Marriott, this is simply nonsense. The hotel itself is quite dated. It gives the impression that an existing property simply rebranded to Marriott, but neither the service level nor the staff training meets the chain's standards yet. A separate disappointment was the spa area. There is no sauna in the women's locker room, only a large bathtub, whereas the sauna is located in the men's area. For a hotel of this caliber, this is also very strange. Ultimately, you get a famous Marriott sign and a 5-star label, but there is no 5-star service experience. That is precisely why I advise future guests not to rely solely on the brand and to read recent reviews carefully before booking."
Arima Gyoen
"Not the most modern hotel but the location is great. Onsen on the rooftop are pretty decent and standard. Breakfast and dinner are exceptionally great (coz normally onsen meals might not be tasty haha) thanks for everything!"
