Excellent hotel with beautiful views and design.
Pros:

Was totally not expecting it to be so fancy considering the price! It was cheap but high-end and a very cool location, love Kobe. The lobby is beautiful and relaxing.

Cons:

Not the most convenient location however Kobe port is relatively quiet compared to the mainland and I enjoyed the peace. Pretty much nothing to say.

Wer Kōbe all over erleben möchte, sollte ein anderes Hotel suchen.
Pros:

Die Aussicht aus dem 15stock war bezaubernd

Cons:

Leider etwas weit vom Schuss - man musste immer mit der Bahn in die Stadt rein fahren- aber dafür war die Bahn auch nah bei. & das sie für den Pool Nutzung extra Geld wollten- fand ich komisch.

Pros:

The whole facilities are generous and met all our needs with a variety of restaurants and shops. We loved the free shuttle bus service into town which was a godsend.

Cons:

The room was on the small side and the double bed pushed against the wall. It also had a small bathroom.
