The hotel is indeed a bit old, and the facilities are relatively old, but it is still well maintained and clean. The room size is OK, at least a family of three can use it normally. The bathroom is quite large, but the shower room is a bit compact. The breakfast mentioned in the comments is indeed very diverse. It is amazing at first sight, but to be honest, I can't eat it after two bites, but many Japanese come here specifically to eat. Smoking is allowed outside the hotel, but it will be moved to the underground parking lot on rainy days. Kitano Tenmangu Shrine and Kitano Ijinkan Street are not far away, but Kobe is always uphill and downhill, and it is a bit tiring to walk. The hotel service staff is really good and enthusiastic, which really makes people feel very comfortable.

It was smaller than I expected, but the interior was lovely and cute. The people who helped me were warm and it was a very comfortable and relaxing place. The shop was closed, so I was very satisfied with the lemon cake set service!

It feels like an exquisite villa, with free snacks, and is very close to the attractions.

The highlight is the considerate front desk service, including taking many beautiful photos for us when checking out and bowing 90 degrees to greet us. However, the so-called "best breakfast in the world" is really exaggerated. Although the table looks full, the quality is far inferior to the breakfasts of Peninsula Hotel, Six Senses, Waldorf Astoria, Park Hyatt, etc. The hotel room reminds me of the feeling of renting a room for international students in Europe. In short, it depends on personal preference. I may prefer chain luxury hotels. (After all, the price of this hotel is also less than 3,000 during the holidays, which is not cheap)

My husband fell ill on the second night, so we asked them to bring breakfast to our room, which was very helpful. When my husband was resting in the room, I went outside so as not to disturb him, but there was a sofa and reading space in the hotel, so I used them. It was very nice. I would like to stay again.

This is an old hotel famous for its breakfast. The location and service are good. It is within walking distance of Ijinkan and about 15 minutes by taxi from Kobe Port. It takes about 10 minutes to walk to Mouriya.

Nice location, interesting building, lost in time but may be a bit quirky for the western traveler. Location is good and this is a very vibrant area The staff try to please and are super friendly but English communications are difficult. Rooms are quite big by Japanese standards and have updated bathrooms. Areas for improvement are there is no bar or bar lounge, You literally have to check in at the front desk before you can go to breakfast (which is really amazing to be candid especially if people are checking out and you have to wait ) The biggest hassle for us was the WiFi which reminds of twenty years ago dial up internet Slow speed and kicks you off mid stream and you literally have to log in again every time you go on Note to owners : Internet connectivity is seriously in need of major upgrade so if you need strong WiFi this will not well work for you

It was wonderful to stay here, to feel the history. The room and the bed are comfortable. The breakfast was outstanding and worth higher travel budget.

My girlfriend and I stayed here together. She wanted to have breakfast at Kobe Kitano Hotel, so we planned it from a while ago and decided to go on the middle day of Golden Week. I don't like vegetables, so I don't eat many vegetables at breakfast in other hotels. (At the buffet breakfast) This time at Kobe Kitano Hotel, the vegetables were in juice form, so they didn't feel like vegetables. I ate everything. The yogurt and other dishes were very delicious. My girlfriend also said she wanted to stay again, so I'd like to plan it again.

The hospitality of the hoteliers was wonderful, and I had a comfortable stay. The desserts and chocolates that were delivered to the room included in the plan were more luxurious than I expected, and I was excited! Of course, they tasted great! Personally, I was happy with the dessert that was full of strawberries. The world's best breakfast that I was looking forward to was out of the ordinary, and I was excited even before I ate it. The fact that the ingredients were not special made it easier to relax, but everything was delicious and I was very impressed. I would like to return next year!

I stayed here on a girls' trip. The room was based on green, and I was excited by the luxurious interior that evoked the image of medieval Europe! I was also very happy that the amenities were Clarins. For breakfast, we were taken to Kitano Terrace by shuttle bus and enjoyed it while overlooking the cityscape of Kobe. Everything was really delicious, and I was especially surprised by the tapioca, which I had never tried before. At the end, the chef came to talk to us and told us about his commitment to quality, which was also great. For room service, we received lemon cake, confiture, baked goods, etc. This lemon cake was so delicious... It was my first time to be impressed by lemon cake. I think this moist texture and elegant sweetness are one of a kind! I heard that it can also be purchased at the boutique opposite the hotel, but I didn't buy it this time, so I will definitely buy it the next time I visit! Thanks to the hospitality-filled service, I was able to spend a comfortable time at the hotel. Thank you for the best hotel stay!
