A private open air golden hot spring bath in the room is excellent. The staff are nice and pay attention to what the guests need. Even the location is far away from the town, a free shuttle car is standby all the time to take the guests to the town.

Staff was welcoming, and their hospitality was great. Room condition was top-notch, and I have no complaints about it at all. Food quality was great, and public baths were quite small, but enough. Lots of master pieces maid me feel like staying in an exhibition. I will definitely come back.

I was hesitant about choosing Kobe instead of Kyoto, Osaka, or Nara, but this hotel proved top-notch by location without breaking the bank. It's a 5 minute walk from the main Kobe station, and getting to anywhere in Kansai takes an hour tops. It's also within two minutes of two convenience stores and a is across from a MASSIVE Don Quijote discount grocery/goods store (make sure to get the 2L of water for ¥75!) MASSIVE and high-end shower/tub too.
