Highly recommend joining this tour. Himeji Castle is a very historic and beautiful castle. Koko-en Garden next to it is also very serene and picturesque. There's a great restaurant in the garden, but because you have to queue and we didn't have enough time, we weren't able to eat there. Afterwards, we went to 'Arima' to soak in a hot spring and had some snacks in the town to relieve the fatigue of climbing Himeji Castle, and finally went to Mount Rokko to enjoy the night view, completing a happy trip. I also want to thank the driver and the tour guide Ni-san. Especially the tour guide, who was very professional and humorous, making the whole trip not only informative about the history of Osaka and Kobe, but also full of laughter. It was truly an unforgettable trip.

I’d like to commend our tour guide named Simon. He can speak, English, Japanese, and Chinese which helped our diverse group that day. He was also flexible with our schedule and gave us ample time to explore each site.

We had a wonderful experience with our driver +1 during our Shirakawago and Takayama trip today. Mr. Abdul and Moiz were very friendly, flexible with our schedule, and extremely patient with us. Their warm attitude made the journey comfortable and enjoyable. Thank you for the great service!

The hotel's location is perfect. It's adjacent to shopping areas and within walking distance of Himeji Castle. The breakfast is substantial. Parking was also convenient and reasonably priced at 700 yen.

The hotel was conveniently located near the train station, making it easy to go out for dinner. It was also close to Himeji Castle, so I could take a walk after dinner and see the illuminated castle. Amenities were available at the front desk, and you could take what you needed. I especially liked the soft toothbrush. Overall, the room was clean.

It was divided into the East Wing and the West Wing, and I stayed in the East Wing. The East Wing itself was too cold, and the hallway from the elevator to the room was not heated. I went to use the coin laundry in the West Wing, and the West Wing was very warm as soon as I got off the elevator. I went back and forth several times for laundry, and they were all Japanese. In the East Wing where I stayed, I only met us and Chinese guests. I want to believe that we were not the only ones assigned a room in such a cold place. The desk staff were all friendly. I chose this place because of the hot springs and free parking. The hot springs had many baths and even a mist sauna. Many customers came just for the hot springs. There was plenty of parking, which was convenient.

This hotel is conveniently located right outside the south exit of Himeji Station, offering friendly service and luggage storage. The rooms are like new, with mattresses that are just the right firmness. The bathtubs are deep and long, with excellent water pressure, and DHC amenities and a powerful hairdryer are provided. Complimentary bottled water is offered in the room, along with a coffee maker and tea bags. The excellent location makes getting around extremely easy, with a wide variety of dining and shopping options nearby. The guest rooms are well-equipped, clean, and comfortable, and check-out time is 12:00 PM. Using the Setouchi Area Rail Pass in conjunction with your stay will save you time and make traveling around the area even more convenient.
