Top Kobe Science Museum Hotel Reviews

Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel and great location. However not ideal for solo travelers. This place gets pretty crowded and has a lot of travel groups and families staying here. It will get super busy and chaotic at times with kids running around."

Grand Prince Hotel Osaka Bay

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was quiet and comfortable. I didn’t like that everything had to be paid for separately such as food and pool."

Oriental Hotel Universal City

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel close to Universal Studios. 5 minutes walk to park and also lots of restaurants and shops on the doorstep. VERY friendly and helpful staff. ."

Hotel Monterey Le Frere Osaka

10/10 Excellent

"Good"

Hotel Keihan Universal Tower

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location for visiting Universal Studios. The hotel had all the amenities we needed, and the foot massage machine in the room was very practical and a great way to relax after a long day of walking around Universal Studios."

HOTEL UNIVERSAL PORT

10/10 Excellent

"Good location if you visit universal studios"

ART HOTEL Osaka Bay Tower

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Art Hotel. Our double room was spacious enough for two people and impeccably clean. The view from our room was amazing and especially beautiful at night. The hotel itself is luxurious. The lobby is beautifully decorated. It was also very convenient as the hotel was near so many stores and restaurants and Solaniwa Onsen. Definitely would stay here again!"

Kobe PortTower Hotel

8/10 Good

"When a property offers a gym and a hot and ice bath facility, then it has the capacity to really please its guests. I loved using both of those areas. However, when on one night the room is valued at AU$176.and the next night it is AU$53, you sort of raise an eyebrow!!! The restaurant called The Harbour provides a very decent buffet, that is overpriced given there is no opportunity to eat past 9 pm. The HANGOUT on the top floor is wonderfully located but the staff didn’t have a clue what was going on regarding reservations. At the entrance near reception is a claim to be internationally known, yet no one speaks English and neither is there an English menu. I think the property is poorly led, because the staff are very transactional and do not appear to have a sense of mission and awareness as to what they are creating. This property could be so much more. I recommend it, if health facilities are important to you. Bernie Kelly"
