中華街、南京町に面しています。商店街の中にある為、色々な意味で便利で面白い。元町駅がすぐ近くで関西圏内の観光にとても便利でした。平日の値段から、チープなホテルと間違いやすいかも知れませんが、女性も泊まれる中程度の気取る必要のない良いホテルでした。ただ、誰かも言っているようにバスタブの高さが自分の股下ぐらいあるのは愛嬌でした。バスから出る時の高低差も気をつけてね。

Staffs were very friendly and helpful. My friend lost her wallet and they helped us contact the police even though it was close to midnight. The hotel in overall was shiny clean and in walking distance from almost all famous tourist attractions in Kobe city, the closest being the China Town. Totally recommend!

Value for money stay

It was very nice stay with clean room and good free breakfast. Only down point is no bottled drinking water apart from that I would recommend this place as it's very near to main shopping street and within 10mins of walking distance from main station and Meriken Park

　契約駐車場はないものの　紹介していたいただいた駐車寿も　さほど遠くなく　手頃な価格でしたので満足です。 　ベットは大きめでよかったですが　その分　バストイレは　大きい体の私には　狭めでした。 　朝食は別料金ながらも金額に見合った内容でよかったです。 　中華街すぐそば、阪神電鉄元町駅すぐそば、コンビニすぐそば、　立地面では最高です。

とにかく立地が最高です！ 徒歩数秒で西安問^ ^ フロントの方たちも感じが良いです。 一つ難を言えば、駐車場がないので、かならずホテルにオススメされた駐車場にしてください。 間違えて停めたところが、とんでもなく高くて恐ろしい思いをしました。 絶対にホテルの人に聞いて停めてください。 それ以外はとっても良いホテルでした！
