Himeji

veľmi dobrý jednodňový pobyt. dobre situovaný medzi stanicou a hradom

The location is about a 10-minute walk from the south exit of Himeji Station, but note that you can get there faster by entering through a parking lot entrance and walking through it. The sink is separate from the bathroom and toilet, making it quite flexible to use. With a slight rearrangement of the indoor space, you can open both 24-inch and 28-inch suitcases at the same time. The beds are quite comfortable, and overall it is pretty good, except that the neighborhood is a bit quiet.

5-star rating! A flawless experience! The hotel's hot spring baths are of exceptional quality; the pools are clean and comfortable, and soaking in them is a therapeutic way to wash away travel fatigue. The rooms are clean, the service is attentive, and the environment is peaceful. Overall, I am extremely satisfied and highly recommend it. I will definitely stay here again next time!

The location is great, very close to Himeji Castle and the shopping street. There's also a convenience store nearby, though it's about a 300-meter walk. There are a total of 4 affiliated parking lots, costing ¥700 per day, with tickets available at the front desk. On the 7th floor, there's a terrace where you can enjoy views of the area around Himeji Castle.

The hotel is about a seven to eight-minute walk from the train station. There's a 7-Eleven downstairs, and several large shopping malls and supermarkets nearby. The shopping street is also close to the hotel, making it very convenient for dining and shopping. The hotel rooms are clean, and basic facilities are complete. The washing machines and dryers are separate, but there are three of each, so you might have to wait to do laundry (if needed). The breakfast selection isn't extensive; I stayed for four nights, and the breakfast was essentially the same every day.

The family said I was their first ever guest from Pakistan. This was my first attempt at experiencing japanese hospitality and I did make mistakes 🫣but I loved the homely place. it was a 15 min walk to Himeji Castle. for travellers who aren’t used to Japanese plugs/sockets: pls take note!

Had a wonderful day exploring Himeji, Kobe, and Katsuoji! Our first stop was Himeji Castle. It’s huge, and those steep staircases really made me wonder how anyone could have conquered this castle back then! So glad this beautiful piece of history has been preserved. Some areas are still under renovation, but the main keep is in great condition. I also got some cute souvenirs and sweets before leaving! Next was Kobe Harborland, Umie & Mosaic for lunch and a shopping. We could see Kobe Port Tower nearby, although the weather wasn’t great, so I couldn’t get very close. We ended the day at Katsuoji Temple. I wasn’t able to make it all the way up to the main temple, but the entrance and gardens were already beautiful and breathtaking. A big thank you to Ms. Wenling Huang of Lion Travel for taking such good care of us, keeping us well-informed throughout the tour. She always made sure I was okay. ❤️ And thanks to Kho-san, our amazing chauffeur, for getting us safely to every destination.

Bol to naozaj úžasný zážitok, musím vrelo odporučiť nášho svedomitého sprievodcu Nicka. Bol priateľský, mal so sebou knihu s obrázkami a jeho vtipný a živý výklad obohatil celú cestu! Hrad Himeji v auguste bol naozaj len horúci, ale Nick nám premyslene pripravil slané cukríky, aby sme predišli úpalu. Počas celej prehliadky nám ukázal očarujúcu krásu hradu Himeji a naučili sme sa veľa nových vecí! Na každom mieste nám nezabudol podrobne porozprávať o miestnych špecifikách a odporučiť miestne špeciality. Za jediný deň som získal hlbšie pochopenie a dlhšie trvajúce predstavy o Osake a Kóbe! Teším sa na ďalšiu príležitosť pripojiť sa k takejto skvelej skupine a všetci by ste mali Nicka veľmi podporovať ^^

The tour was amazing! The driver was very patient, sharing helpful tips for various attractions in Nikko along the way. When we got lost, he even came to guide us back. The itinerary was very well-planned. Highly recommended!
