I had a very comfortable stay.However, the building is old and the facilities are limited.I thought it might be a little dangerous that the outlets were empty.

I stayed there last minute on a Wednesday night in mid-September for about 3,500 yen per twin. It's a little far from a convenience store and shopping center, but it's not a problem. It's a luxurious hotel built during the bubble era, but it's probably been through various management changes... However, I was happy that there was welcome sake. Even in this era, the bathtub was not built in units, but instead was bathed slowly. Although it feels old in some places and parts that have been replaced are cheap, the rooms are spacious and have the atmosphere of a former luxury hotel, and personally, I was happy with the excellent value for money.The amenities are as expected for the price.It was a last-minute stay due to an early morning flight from Kobe, but I think it would be okay to stay there again. I think there are other options for those traveling to Kobe who don't want to go through the trouble of riding the monorail. thank you very much.

To solve the Portopia serial insect killing incident,This is the hotel where I stayed with Yas.The guest rooms are on the upper floors of the Kobe Chamber of Commerce and Industry.There is a parking lot on the premises, but there is a parking lot on the road.The parking lot on the south side is cheap at maximum 600 yen.Enter the Kobe Chamber of Commerce and Industry entrance and go up the stairs.If you look to the side without going up, you will see the hotel entrance.There is welcome sake near the reception.Hold 2-3 bottles upside down and drink from a paper cup.It looked nice, but I didn't drink it.Well, I won't tell you why.Checking in is an old-school process.I think the elderly will be relieved.There are no amenities in the room other than toothbrushes.It's not placed there, so let's secure it on the first floor.There is an ice machine and vending machines for juice and alcohol.It is useful to know which floor it is on.The room is in an old-fashioned former resort hotel.I think it's made quite spacious.Kobe Portopia Continuous Island ExpoIt seems that the building was built in the early 19th century, so it is old.The good thing is that the bathroom is separate.There is a partition between the toilet and bath.The furniture looks like it was well-done in the past.The leather on the chair was painfully torn and in disrepair.Next time I stay over, I will gently apply the cream.On the side of the NEC phone next to the bedIt has the "Electricity and Telecommunications Public Corporation" logo mark.This area also has Kobe Portopia continuous airs (omitted)Do not put plastic bottles, cans, and jars in the trash.Please note that this is not allowed.First-class hotels keep things that don't go in the trash.I think I'll keep it in case I forget something.Please throw away my plastic bottle, please?In the morning, we have breakfast at the Italian restaurant on the first floor.Oh, it's not free? There is a fee.The person who promised to have breakfast on the sofa in the lobby.While I was waiting, I saw this from the space behind the front desk.A woman's retort, "You're crazy!"I was very surprised when I heard the voice.No, you are definitely the one who is crazy.Breakfast is fun and plentiful to choose from.A small cup of natto would have been perfect.But this is fashionable Kobe,Maybe natto is “crazy!”I think you will enjoy it because the price is cheap.

Close to World Memorial Hall. I saw Lawson and passed by Noevir. I made a reservation in a hurry and got a smoking and twin room. ah. No brushes, notes, or ballpoint pens. If the alarm is broken, the clock will be noisy and you will need to remove the battery. Bathtub and shower are separate. Shower pipe is short. My legs hit. Thank goodness there is a support rod in the bathtub. It's hot. First, turn on the air conditioner. And inside. I turn it off because it's cold. But it was cold. I get up to go to the bathroom many times because I'm cold. gown. When I tried to put it on after taking a bath, it smelled like sweat. Huh! I noticed that you didn't close the button. and. The towels and pillow cases also smelled of sweat. Breakfast is plentiful. You can eat different things. There are sweaty linens. Is it because of the room?August. Non-smoking room. It's not open and it's twin. wide. I wonder if it was like that before. slippers. It wasn't disposable. in. As expected, the gown smelled of sweat. Spray before going to a concert. in. When I open the bed. My hair. ah. Last time I had breakfast, this time I went to Ueshima Coffee Shop near Port Liner Sannomiya Station. Salmon and tomato sandwich. Delicious. It's been nice since morning. Photos too. It will be gone by the end of August.
