Spacious and Inviting

I had an amazing experience with my room at the Kobe Meriken Park Oriental Hotel. The room was incredibly spacious, and I loved that it had a nice balcony where I could enjoy the gorgeous view of the port tower and the surrounding areas. The comfortable bed was perfect for restful nights, and the room was well-equipped with all necessary amenities. I could easily connect to the free Wi-Fi, which was great for planning my daily activities!

Fantastic Dining Options

I thoroughly enjoyed dining at the hotel, especially in the executive lounge. The dinner options, including the steak and curry, were absolutely delicious! The ingredients were fresh, and each meal was prepared with care. The variety allowed me to indulge in local flavors, which was a highlight of my stay.

Relaxing Atmosphere

The atmosphere at the hotel was so relaxing! I spent a lot of time enjoying the views from the lounge and my room, especially watching the changes of color across the water throughout the day. It was a great way to unwind after a busy day of exploring the city.

Entertainment and Media Abounds

I appreciated how the room came with its own entertainment options, including access to various TV channels. Despite the slight challenge of finding English programs, I discovered that I could switch CNN to English, which was a pleasant surprise. It made my evenings enjoyable as I caught up on news while relaxing in my well-appointed room.

The hotel offers a great seaside location with spacious rooms and a view of the harbor. While the convenience of a smartphone and other amenities is a nice touch, I did find the breakfast selection limited and the service could improve in terms of communication.

This hotel offers a fantastic harbor view and is conveniently located near Kobe Harborland and several attractions. The rooms are comfortable and clean, with lovely balconies to enjoy the scenery.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is located at Kobe port. The room was spacious and offered late checkout, which was a nice bonus.
