"Really good property, standard APA Hotel room. Very spacious and roughly a 6 minute walk from the main Himeji station. Good for solo travelers and dual travelers. Solo travelers can fit their check in, carryon and personal here. Two people can, but if they pack a tad lighter."
"It was quite at night, clean, and the staff were very nice.
Only 2 down sides I saw were that there was no safe in the room I stayed in and that the shower randomly got hot."
"It was very close to the station at a very reasonable price, breakfast and dinner were provided, and there was also a public bath and sauna, so I could relax at a very reasonable price. I would like to visit again."

"I am Canadian and recently retired from my position as President of a famous Japanese company in both
Canada and USA.
I have been to Japan upwards of 50 times and I have been spoiled staying at some of the most wonderful hotels and resorts throughout Asia, North America, Caribbean etc.
I am currently spending 90 days in Japan therefore, within budget, I am staying at moderately priced hotels throughout the country and I came upon this hotel.
With my many experience over the years, there is no doubt...this is in the top 5 of the BEST HOTELS I have ever stayed at!
It is absolutely beautiful and elegant in that wonderfully understated Japanese way.
1. Lobby
It's the first thing we usually notice when entering a hotel.
This lobby is beautiful, spacious and elegant.
2. Room
As a solo traveller on a budget, I chose a single room. But it was perfect. Unlike North America, Japanese hotel rooms are relatively small, but so well organized.
3. Breakfast
This is without doubt one of the BEST buffet style breakfasts I have ever had! Not only is the selection wide and varied, but the quality of the food and taste is absolutely outstanding!
4. Pool
Yes, as noted in other reviews, there is a cost for using the swimming pool. BUT, that is somewhat common in Japan.
When we consider the amazing low nightly cost for the room, so what. Paying for use of the pool is no big deal.
In conclusion: I plan to return to this hotel again before my trip is over. I LOVE this hotel!"
"Every detail you'd expect from nice and relaxing stay is at this hotel. Staff was absolutely helpful. Purchase with breakfast option is recommended. The hotel is located in between JR Himeji station and Himeji Castle, which was perfect for us to enjoy the area. Strongly recommended!"
