Whenever we return to Kobe from US, we stay here at least a couple of days. We always look forward to the quiet atmosphere, excellent buffet for morning and/or evening, or ala carte (menu is very extensive) restaurant. We love the Onsen, of course! This is one of the main reasons we come back to Kobe Minato Onsen Ren. Staff are always courteous and polite. We are planning to stay again in April this year. Looking forward to it very much!

They need to train their staff immediately on customer service. This is the worst hotel check in that I have experienced in my life. The particular hotel check in staff does not know the meaning of hospitality service.

I gave my wife and daughter a gift of a stay for three at a hotel for my mother's birthday. They were delighted by the beautiful night view of Kobe from the room and hot springs, as well as the excellent hotel service. Now, I'm also looking forward to staying there myself.

Jackhammers and tugboat.
Before booking please be aware that you might end up with a view of a construction site and woken up at 7am by a noisy tug boat and enjoying the rest of the day of listening to jackhammers. I'll never stay here again.

a hidden gem
We booked the Harbour suite which was super spacious. We loved the private onsen which was really large. The spring water was a bit too hot for our liking . The buffet dinner was worth every cent. A proper Japanese expereince in food and culture. It felt like we were the only foreign tourists staying here which made it really unique like we had found a hidden gem. After dinner we went for a walk along the promenade which goes around the hotel. It was really nice walking besides the water with wonderful night views of kobe tower and surrounds.
