I am going to save the specifics of this terrible review for Expedia and The ANA Crowne Plaza Kobe in hopes that they will make it right!

This hotel is not at all luxurious. Our room was old and bordering on dingy. Dated furnishings and very limited technology, like air conditioning control. The gym had equipment that looked like it was from the 1980’s. Good location and views of Kobe.

The facility itself is getting old and dated, reminiscent of the days before the economic bubble burst. Updating the facility by removing old carpeting and updating the bathrooms will renew the hotel for a modern feel. Convenient location for travelers and a great breakfast buffet.
