Book a hotel near Hanshin Racecourse, Kobe

"Great place, very clean rooms"

"I liked the daily room service."

"Great experience! Impressed by the facility and services by the staffs. We arrived Arima Onsen by bus, I happen to saw the hotel bus was outside, and the staff was so pleasant to pick us up. By the way, bus station and nearby tourist information center all provides free call service for you to request hotel pick up. During our 2 days stay, we used hotel’s free shuttle service to town and to the Rokko Ropeway. Really impressed by staffs great help! Breakfast was very generous. They delivered the whole set to our room. Free drink at the lobby all day. Laundry facilities is very clean! I booked premium Japanese room. Only to find out that my 80+ mom had hard time to get down and up. The front desk staff help me to switch to a Japanese & western room. The room is very good size in Japanese term. Clean and comfortable. I do not need room cleaning the next day, but the staffs still provide us with a new Yukata and new water bottle. The best of all, is the onsen. This hotel has 8 private onsen, with the famous silver and gold hot spring. Clean and good size, with green hill view. My mom’s shoulder pain is relieved after soaking. Magical spring!"

"The hotel is newly renovated. Style is modern japanese western. Gold onsen is nice."

"We stayed in Room1153 by elevators with self-serve laundry on the floor 300yen wash, 100yen per 20min to dry. Water filter for drinking water by elevators-great alternative to bottled water. Unfortunately it is down alot so purchased water at supermarket. Room had an air filter. Beautiful hotel behind the train station and above a shopping mall with Hands dept. store, 24hour supermarket, 7eleven, food court in basement, McDonalds, Matsuya fast food 24hrs, Don Quixote and Pachinko, Uniqlo, Daiso ,100 yen drug/discount store for everything you need all close by. Slippers provided. Amenities such as combs, razors, toothbrush/toothpaste, even facial cleanser/toner/moisturizer samples, instant coffee and teabags provided in lobby in self-service area by check-in. Microwave in lobby. Fridge and hot water boiler in room. Don't need anything else. Pack lightly and enjoy the proximity to the the trains. Full room cleaning is done every 3 days unless you specifically want it done that day. In that case you must leave the room by 11am to allow cleaning crew to do a thorough cleaning. Only complaint was that we should have more laundry machines-a change machine would help, water filtration system was down alot and fridge was not cold enough. Other than that we enjoyed our stay with clean modern rooms and being next to the trains were the most important issue for us. Rooms were tiny so opening a large luggage was impossible. Carpets need cleaning."

"Everything was great. The Public Bath on the 13th floor was the main reason I booked and it did not disappoint. The only two things (and I’m American so Japanese wouldn’t mind these) was the pillow (Japanese style, so my neck was very stiff the next day) and the fact that the AC is not controlled in the room (I believe it is centrally controlled throughout the hotel). I prefer colder than “normal” temps when I sleep. I would, even with that, stay there again!"
