a hidden gem
We booked the Harbour suite which was super spacious. We loved the private onsen which was really large. The spring water was a bit too hot for our liking . The buffet dinner was worth every cent. A proper Japanese expereince in food and culture. It felt like we were the only foreign tourists staying here which made it really unique like we had found a hidden gem. After dinner we went for a walk along the promenade which goes around the hotel. It was really nice walking besides the water with wonderful night views of kobe tower and surrounds.

Oasis in the middle of the city. This is the city style ryokan I when stayed at, and what an experience! The room is spacious and airy, modern but still all the Japanese zen elements. The breakfast buffet is full of local selections, with western and Japanese items. There are two onsens to choose from, one with rooftop view and another one with large outdoor bath. I’ll recommend staying here over any traditional western style hotel. The Kobe port is right next the hotel and the main subway station is 15 minutes away by walking.

Not worth the cost, Nickel and dime you
Beautiful hotel but for the price, you are not really getting the value. The WiFi is awful and never works, the front desk is not very friendly or welcoming, the strict 5pm checkin feels rigid and obsolete when there are clearly rooms available earlier, paying 1000 yen to use the gym when you’re a hotel guest is actually offensive, and unless you get a room facing the marina, you will face the construction side which has no view and just jack hammer construction sounds all day. Maybe this is just a foreigners perspective as there don’t seem to be many non-Japanese here, but feels like this place could be so much better with a bit more effort and accommodations.

A very beautiful hotel!
I checked in half an hour earlier before official check-in. The room is in the Japanese style, huge, clean, beautiful. The hotel has 2 onsens, one on the 1-st floor and another on the 10-th floor. Both were excellent! Breakfast and dinner were amazing and very delicious! The location is very good, in the very picturesque place by the sea. The hotel has the bus shuttle to the central station, it runs every half an hour, but it is possible to walk from the central station to the hotel and it took me about 15 minutes.

The property has a nice view of the Kobe Harbor. There is also a free shuttle bus that will take you to Sannomiya Eki Mae. On the other hand, I would like to see the Hotel Bar Lounge stay open until 1:30 a.m.
