Kobe Portopia Hotel
The room and bathroom were spacious and clean, except for the bathtub, which you don’t realize until taking a bath. Breakfast was a little disappointing for the price, not much choice of fresh fruit and salad, as well as terribly crowded!

Remm Plus Kobe Sannomiya
교통 , 서비스등 전반적으로 편리하고 좋습니다 . 그런데 방이 좁은데 제대로 작동도 안하고 더구나 목부분에 때가 묻어 있어서 고객들이 사용안 할 안마기도 있어서 방이 넘 좁아요 . 또 다리부분은 안마도 안되는 것 같아요 ! 한번 고려해 주세요 ..필요하면 별도로 안마를 받으면 될 것 같습니다 .
