The rooms were a little tired but the rest of the hotel was magnificent. The location is perfect, try and get a room facing the Ferris wheel as night time is very pretty. The foyer is beautiful and always smells so fresh! The convenience store onsite had everything we needed including beautiful sandwiches for the kids and the breakfast oh my goodness! Next level!!!! They had everything you could imagine!!!!
The Kobe Meriken Park Oriental Hotel is located directly at the harbor in Kobe. Our room was spacious and clean and it had great view of the city and the harbor. ample parking is available. Excellent buffet breakfast & dinner are offered at the hotel.

Staff were lovely and responsive. Rooms were clean and tastefully decorated. View from corner balcony was amazing!
The room view was gorgeous, and the entire hotel was beautiful. We really enjoyed the breakfast buffet and dinner buffet with all you can eat crab. The quality of food was great. I felt the receptionist at the front desk was very rude. She was very short in her responses to me and not welcoming. As an American I would not recommend this hotel to another American. As the first representative of the hotel they should find someone who makes international guests feel welcome. It made me wonder if it reflected the sentiment of the entire hotel. The lack of effort she made to explain the hotel amenities was poor.
Structure of the hotel was marvelous, and view from my room was beautiful. I saw a great sun set and ocean view. The staff was kind and the atmosphere was great
Beautiful hotel, unfortunately my experience was not good. I booked an additional night and had to check out and check back in 3 hours later. I requested a late checkout, $3,000 yen for 1 extra hour. The bar on the 14th floor charged $1,100 yen as a cover charge. Access to the pool/sauna $1,650 yen, $300 yen for bath hat. I called the bellhop to assist with my luggage, not available to assist.
Amazing hotel and fabulous night view of the lit up Ferris wheel. Great location on the pier. Rooms are big and well
Laid out. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again.
