Kobe Tower hotels in Kobe, Japan

Close to amenities and transportation; very enjoyable stay and good shopping experience

The rooms are clean and tidy even though the hotel seems to be a bit old. It is conveniently located across the street from Sannomiya station.

It's in the middle of the city that's fantastic, and that great Seattles best coffee downstairs gets you going!

Hotel is close to the train. Room was clean and staff were friendly

Thye room was larger than in the b hotel in Kyoto. Staff are keeping it very clean and bright. The beds were comfortable. And the heated toilet seats that rose automaticallly were cosy and entertaining.We enjoyed the hotel and would come again if back in Kobe. The one remaining lesser note was a real shortage of shelves and drawers to store clothing that does not hang like underwear, socks etc.

I'll be honest. You get what you pay for with this hotel. It's cheap and in an incredibly nice spot in terms of being near the train station with a multitude of train lines (and a lot of Pokemon Go spots nearby too). That being said you can tell the hotel is a lil run down with the carpets being stained and the first floor bar being just empty and and being used as storage. Maybe it used to be a really grand hotel but now it's just a pretty good hotel. I would honestly stay there again because for its price it's pretty hard to beat. The staff was incredibly and the free breakfast was alright.

The Hotel Monterey Kobe has an absolutely unique atmosphere from the second you walk in - it really does feel like you're in an Italian castle right in the middle of Kobe. I found this atmosphere very appealing and comfortable, especially in the guest rooms and front desk area, but of course if you're looking for a more traditional Japanese experience, you may want to look elsewhere. My room was small by US standards but a comfortable medium by Japanese standards, and I had a nice view of the city without any noise. As far as location goes, the hotel is in Sannomiya, Kobe's main area for food and nightlife. This was great for me, since food is the main reason I came to Kobe, and it was super convenient to have all the restaurants I wanted to go to 5 minutes away from the hotel. Sannomiya Station connects to most other lines in Kobe, including the Hanshin line to Osaka, and it's about a 20 minute walk to Shin-Kobe Station, where the Shinkansen is located (though of course if you're weighed down by luggage you may prefer to take the train 1 stop from Sannomiya).

Convenient location, easy to find even 1st time to the place. Nice & helpful staff
