Very nice hotel, close to the train station. Quiet in the rooms. The afternoon/night parking attendant very helpful giving suggestion sightseeing in the area. The beds were a little hard for me. Walking distance from Himeji castle. Other than that, the location was easy access to everything.

I liked that this property was a short walk from the Himeji train station. If you wanted to buy groceries, the nearest stores were a good 15-20 minute walk away, but there were convenience stores nearby if needed. Lots of restaurants in the station area itself. The biggest negative that would be for this location is if you are a light sleeper, the train noise was very loud. Especially when the express shinkansen roared through Himeji station. I was able to sleep through all that, but when I was awake, I could really hear the roar of the trains. The area seemed safe and quiet.

Great location, ok stay

The location being so close to the train station is hard to beat. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The lobby looks very clean and nice, but when we went up to the floor our room was on, it felt like the elevator had transported us somewhere else. It was very industrial and cold. The rooms are very basic. Not super comfortable, but fine. I might stay here again because the location is so convenient, but I'd be better prepared for what to expect.

朝食だけでなく夕食もついているのをチェックイン時に知りました。 イマイチと思ったのは、15F大浴場に行くのに部屋のドアを開けると寒い点だけです。 変な話ですが、料金をもうちょっと上げたら良いと思います。 今の料金ではコスパが高すぎて、ホテルの株主に申し訳なく思いました。

ホテルは部屋の外は外廊下であり、マンションの様になっている。上下階から部屋に入る様子も見れるので安全面が心配。 部屋前にゴミが溜まっており、部屋の中にも前の宿泊客が残していったゴミが転がっていた。 禁煙ルームだったがタバコ臭く、布団、ベッドも汚れや髪の毛があり、非常に不快でした。

1泊2食付きでお得なホテルでした。シングルルームですが、ベッドも広く小さいスーツケースを開けるスペースもありますし、何の問題もなかったです。部屋の鍵のことでフロントに確認したら、丁寧に説明してくれました。難点は駐車場が使えず、少し離れたコインパーキングを使ったことと、窓の外は線路だったので、電車の音が大きかったので人によっては眠れないかもしれません。
