Top Shin-Kobe Ropeway Hotel Reviews

Oriental Hotel Universal City

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, excellent location near USJ."

The Park Front Hotel at Universal Studios Japan

8/10 Good

"Excellent location with easy access to Universal theme park and city walk. Amazing views of the theme park. Room great, standard below the big international chains but good at this level. Location is the key selling point"

Remm Plus Kobe Sannomiya

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is located at Sannomiya Station and offers excellent transportation access (near JR Sannomiya Station, the Kobe Municipal Subway Seishin Line, and the Hanshin Electric Railway). Travelers arriving on the JR Shinkansen are right at the hotel upon arrival. The hotel is directly connected to the underground shopping arcade, which links to major shopping centers, food courts, and supermarkets. Nearby establishments stay open late (izakayas, Starbucks). However, the air conditioning in the rooms may leak when there is a significant temperature difference; please contact the front desk for assistance. The rooms are more spacious than those in typical business hotels, with enough room to fully open a 28-inch suitcase."

APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Namba Ekimae Tower

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and it was very clean"

Hotel Monterey KOBE

10/10 Excellent

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful high end hotel, well maintained, well located just 2min covered walk to the train station (portliner going downtown), 2min to the convention centers. Also has a free shuttle going downtown 3 or 4 times per hour. Several restaurants onsite, immense lobby. I didn't have time to go to gym nor pools. Also just a few train stations away from Kobe Airport. Will definitely stay there again if I go to Kobe."

ART HOTEL Osaka Bay Tower

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms were spacious and super clean. We didn’t eat in the hotel as lots of options in the shopping centre outside. We had an issue with the safe on the last day and they were there to fix it within minutes. Perfect place to stay."

Hotel Keihan Universal Tower

10/10 Excellent

"We really liked this hotel! Super close and convenient for Universal and some fun family rooms with bunkbeds that the children loved. We would definitely stay again."
