Top Kodama Shrine Hotel Reviews

Himeji Station Universal Hotel South Exit

10/10 Excellent

"ビジネスホテル初めてでしたけど全部のことでいい経験になってくれました。"

HOTEL LiVEMAX PREMIUM Himejieki-Minami

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, very spacious, helpful staff, and clean room!"

Dormy Inn Himeji Natural Hot Spring

10/10 Excellent

"I like the free public bath on 12/F a lot. First of all it is open throughout the night, for a night owl who like to walk around the city until late, I can go enjoy the public bath at 1am or 4am is great. I can check whether the public bath is crowded or not on the tv in my room so convenient ! Laundry machine is free ! Dryer costs ¥100 for 20mins. Free popsicles after public bath, free soba noodle every evening, free bottle of water in my fridge. Will definitely stay here again !"

Remm Plus Kobe Sannomiya

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at Remm Plus Kobe Sannomiya for 4 nights and 5 days and had a wonderful experience! The check-in and check-out process was quick and easy, and the staff were very helpful throughout my stay. One of my favorite parts was the breakfast buffet—the dining area has a superb view, and the food quality was excellent. I especially enjoyed having Kobe beef every morning! Tip: Get to breakfast early if you want a seat with a beautiful mountain or city view. The room was comfortable, clean, and good quality. I also really appreciated how quiet it was—I didn’t hear much outside noise, so I was able to rest and sleep very well after long days exploring Kobe. If you love shopping and want an easy commute, you’re at the right place! There’s an American Pharmacy store downstairs, a FamilyMart nearby, and very convenient access to the Port Liner. The location makes it super easy to shop, grab what you need, and get around Kobe. Overall, I had a great time here and really enjoyed my stay. I would definitely recommend Remm Plus Kobe Sannomiya, especially if you’re looking for comfort, convenience, great food, and easy transportation!"

Himeji Castle Grandvrio Hotel

8/10 Good

"A very nice hotel close to Himeji station and the castle. The breakfast is very generous and the hotel staff are very attentive. It is impeccably clean. However, the rooms are quite small and there isn’t even space under the bed for any kind of luggage. Bear this in mind if you have a large suitcase (you might be able to store it closed and vertically in the small wardrobe)"

Daiwa Roynet Hotel Himeji

10/10 Excellent

"All staff were superb. So polite, friendly and helpful from holding my luggage upon early arrival, check in, breakfast & check out. Excellent buffet breakfast. Spacious clean room & bathroom."

Kobe PortTower Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Bon emplacement, chambre typique et très confortable. Excellent service."

Seaside Hotel Maiko Villa Kobe

10/10 Excellent

"The onsen is really nice! This hotel is ideal spot to go to Awaji Island, Himeji & Kobe."

Richmond Hotel Himeji

8/10 Good

"初めての宿泊でアメニティがたくさんあり、大変助かった。事前に分かっていれば持ち物が少なくって良かったと思う。"
