Himeji Hotels with Breakfast

Love the location, near JR stations with easy access to eateries and shopping. Although the hotel doesn’t has it own parking, it has plenty of coin parking nearby and price is reasonable with max 800 / 900 jpy for 24 hours (hotel website provides recommended coin parking area for reference). Bed is very comfy. Only negative point is that the room is a bit narrow with 3 beds. Other than that, it’s perfect for my family of 4 (with one sharing existing bed).

Breakfast buffet ( included in the hotel price) is very delicious with many varieties, especially freshly squeezed fruit, vegetable juice, fruits like apples, pineapples, mangoes which were not available in my previous hotel at Toyoko Inn at Fukuyama. However, my only problem was my knee issue ( chronic joints pain) as it was a bit difficult due to pain to get onto the elevated bathroom in the room.

Hotel has the usual amenities at the reception, one will need to take the night gown from the level 1 cabinet. The hotel provide home cooked breakfast which was quite tasty. Not sure if the slippers are clean as they were not in any packaging. Overall good value to price ratio.

Excellent location just outside Himeji train station. Quiet rooms with comfortable beds. The room was little on the warm side during my Dec/Jan stays.

The location is very good, the south exit of the Shinkansen, you can see it on the left. Check-in can be operated directly on the machine, and breakfast service is provided every day. Attractions and shopping in the city can be reached on foot, and it is very convenient to take the Shinkansen to the nearby city.

The hotel was comfortable, with stunning field views. The stargazing hot spring bath was amazing; you could actually see so many stars! Breakfast and dinner were decent, but not particularly amazing. Many staff members were young, and most of the front desk staff could communicate in English. The hotel's clientele consisted mostly of families traveling with children. There was a separate section for dogs. The hotel had many public spaces and facilities, such as a complimentary drink bar, a snack bar, and a self-service ramen shop in the evening. The souvenir shop was also quite nice. I had a very pleasant two-day stay here.

The room is big and clean. The breakfast was good. Check in and check out were smooth.

Meeting the general hotel standard

My wife and I stayed at a Japanese-Style Room with Japanese Cypress Open-Air Bath on the Terrace. The hotel has English speaking staff who was very friendly and helpful. The dinner and breakfast were amazing, and the servers Mr Shiraiwa and Ms Yamaguchi provided excellent services. This is one of the best onsen ryokans we have experienced, and we look forward to returning.

It is a little far from Himeji station, so is it inconvenient when the weather is bad? However, there are convenience stores and McDonald's nearby, so it is convenient. The facilities are aging, but other surrounding hotels are similar, and I didn't use the large communal bath or free food and drink this time, but it's a good deal, so I definitely want you to use it. orz
