Hotel Wing International Kobe - Shinnagata Ekimae

The location of the hotel was superb, you have the station and underground just a 5 minute walk away, dozens of shops and maybe a hundred restaurants within a few minutes walk of the hotel. (Don't miss the shopping area, turn right out of the entrance and first right down the side street) The staff were truly exceptional, they made a supreme effort despite me struggling with even basic Japanese and were courteous and attentive. The room had an incredible array of amenities, featuring pretty much everything you would ever need, plus the facilities in the hotel itself were excellent and took care of all my needs.

Very comfortable, clean room perfect for one traveler. With more than one it would be a little tight. There was plenty of room to open my suitcase at the end of my bed, which was a nice change from some Japanese hotels. The location was very close to the station, which was very convenient. The McDonalds next door can also be convenient for breakfast or late night food. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Very satisfied with staying comfortably in a spacious and clean room. we could enjoy the Japanese restaurant Yoshinoya, which is a 3-minute walk from this hotel. we experienced the Lokal train from Shinnagada Station to Himeji Station and explored Himeji Temple. As we traveled back and forth by the Lokal train, the local scenery spread out in front of our eyes like a painting.

Staff was very nice and ready to talk to me in English. When asked, they recommended places to eat dinner in the neighbourhood. Even a (handmade) map with restaurants was provided (only in Japanese).

The location is convenient outside of downtown Kobe and very close to the station. The room size is large for Japan. They give away various amenities at the reception.
