It was my first time using it and it was very good. First of all, when I arrived, I was given directions to the parking lot and the service was very polite and pleasant. My room was a deluxe twin room, and it was very spacious and had sufficient facilities, such as a separate washbasin, a Refa hair dryer, and a bath towel rack. I was able to choose shampoo and conditioner for the bath, which was nice. In addition, the services such as ice cream, lactic acid drinks, and night ramen were also good. I was also very moved by how, after checking out, he pulled out of the parking lot and bowed his head to see me off until I turned the corner onto the road. I thought the hotel had well-trained staff. The location is right next to Chinatown, so I would like to use it again.

Dormy Inn is a reliable hotel, and the quality was excellent and I had no complaints!A late-night sauna session would have been perfect, but it was a great stay.

My family came to visit us and stayed at this hotel.I delivered a souvenir to the room, and the interior was quite nice.My family is a smoker, so when we arrived, we immediately went to the smoking room on the first floor to take a breather 😃🚬I had booked a floor with a smoking room, but perhaps because I checked in right away, I was able to get a room closest to the smoking room, which I liked.Apparently, he was on a temporary return from overseas and was looking for hot springs and ramen.For dinner, head to a nearby pub early.He said, ``Japanese izakaya restaurants are of a high standard, so either option is fine.''The izakaya I found on MAP was pretty good, and although we encountered a sudden rain squall, it was close to the hotel, so we were saved.

It's right in the middle of Chinatown, so you can sightsee as much as you want. It's nice to have free Yakult, Yonaki Soba, and ice cream. The hot springs are a little lukewarm. They have a lot of hair-related amenities.For breakfast, the rice noodles were delicious.It was also nice to have some local Kobe gourmet food.If the rice had been a little more piping hot, I would have given it 5 stars.But it wasn't too cold, so I was very satisfied!

This is my second stay here.Eating Sannomiya's favorite Chinese foodThe course is to shop and stay overnight at Mitsui Outlet Mita.I arrived early due to the chain and left my luggage, but they charged me 200 yen for 30 minutes, so I guess I can't help it.After getting tired from shopping, taking a bath is the best. I am also grateful that I can choose the shampoo set I like. The women's bath requires a password, which is helpful.It's great, but if you're greedy, there aren't many chairs in the after-bath area. I want a chaise lounge.You can drink cold water, which is really great, but there aren't many chairs. disappointing.The breakfast was better than the last time I stayed.Great location next to Chinatown.

This is a hotel with very good service from start to finish.There was plenty of welcome drink, including draft beer, ice cream after the bath, night noodles, and a lactic acid drink after the morning bath.It's located in Nankinmachi, so the location is very good.For breakfast, we went out to try Roshōki's pork buns and conger eel pressed sushi, aiming to open at 10am.

After staying, I only used Cafe Oasis.You can use the cafe even if you are passing by, and the surrounding cafes are crowded, so it is a little-known spot.When you're tired of walking, 800 yen is a great deal for 90 minutes of all-you-can-drink drinks and cake.I think that not only the cakes but also the drinks are as delicious as the cafes.
