Himeji hotellia

Plussat: Very close to the train station. Really clean and cool rooms. Definitely good money for value.

Plussat: Sleek and clean. The facilities are good, the staff are polite and nice. Comfortable bed and the room is quite spacious for Japan's standard. Guests can also pick some amenities (including bath salt and facial mask) for free in the reception. Very good for female traveler as other than guests and staff cannot acces the hotel room floors.

Miinukset: A bit tricky to find at first, but actually it's not far from Himeji JR Station.

Plussat: Spacious, new, lots of parking (not free), quiet, easy check in and check out. Lobby smells nice. Already stayed here twice and would stay again. Incredible value for the money.

Miinukset: Could be a little bit cleaner, just a little bit though.

Plussat: Skin care goods are excellent. The shower pressure is very good. The cell phone is very useful when outside of the hotel.

Miinukset: The hotel entrance is a little difficult to find as well as the parking lots outside the perimeters of the hotel. The price for the breakfast is a little expensive. We chose to eat out.

Plussat: Great design! Bigger than most hotels I’ve been! Everything was perfect. The bed was the best! Breakfast is 1,300¥ but for the price, there was a lot of variety.

Plussat: Hotel was close the the train station en Himeji Central area, 15 min from the castle. Room is nice and tidy, equipped with all necessary amenities.

Plussat: the best hotel I have ever stayed at in Japan so far: new clean big room big and comfy bed top location very nice staff acceptable price

Miinukset: I wish I could have stayed longer

Plussat: Room is spacious and clean. Very conveniently located.

Miinukset: Noisy reception area with tour groups, particularly with Chinese tour groups with suitcases taking up the areas making difficult to walk through. Checking out should take place on the ground floor. Onsen Furo on the 4th floor　is not Onsen．　 Guest should be told how to use it properly. I have seen some of them do not wash their bodies before entering in the Furo, disgusting! I will never use it in the future.

Plussat: We came for the onsen and it was really nice, specially the outdoor one !

Plussat: It was close to the station and the staff was great. The hotel was about a 10 minute walk from Himeji castle.

Miinukset: My biggest complaint would have to be that the window could have been better insulated from the outside sound. My room was on the 4th floor and I could hear cars and people outside until around midnight. It wasn't overly loud but it could have been quieter.

Plussat: Friendly and helpful staff who would really tried to listen to my broken Japanese

Miinukset: When the entire country is offering plastic bags wherever you go, this hotel insists not changing the bed sheets is going to make a difference on this planet. Good vision, yet impractical.

Plussat: Staff was nice and with good english Good location near station and nightlife Onsen was good, my girlfriend loved the womens onsen had one hot bath and one outdores.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Clean dormy inn close to train station and many restaurants and shops. Very convenient location.

Miinukset: Room was quite small. Breakfast a bit too simple. Bad coffee.

Plussat: It's basically next to Himeji Castle.

Miinukset: Nothing. I did get there while it was closed and sat outside for a bit before a shop across from the guest house gave me a code to put my luggage inside. Had I booked earlier they would've emailed me the code.

Plussat: Winderful warm and welcoming staff! Thank you for a lovely stay and great recommondatuons!

Plussat: It was clean and welcoming. The host was lovely. She gave us recommendations and did everything she could to make us feel welcome. We even went out with her one evening! Thanks so much would come again.

Miinukset: There were some insects in the room and no coffee. But that was totally compensated by the atmosphere and friendliness of the staff!

Plussat: easy to find. clean. next to castle.

Miinukset: hot & stuffy. surprise rules about limited bathroom & aircon use after arrival.

Plussat: All the staff is nice and polite!

Miinukset: The hotel quite old , and room size is small.

Plussat: Nice view on Himeji, large room, friendly staff, comfortable bed, nice Japanese breakfast. Caution: we've been lucky there was no wedding party organized during our stay. There are several banquet rooms in the building, and I doubt you can really enjoy your stay if there is a party going on nearby.

Miinukset: No Wifi in the room

Plussat: Nice hotel on the hill with very nice views! Very nice traditional Japanese breakfast!

Plussat: Excellent view of the city. Room is spacious and comfortable with modern decoration. Floor lounge is also great with free drinks (including alcohol) and snacks. A nice library and a big public bath to relax.

Miinukset: English capability of staff is limited

Plussat: Breakfast is included and was a delicious Japanese style breakfast.

Miinukset: The dinner at the hotel required reservations made on the previous day. This was not an option through booking.com. so I recommend calling the hotel to make the dinner reservation or eating in Himeji, then going to the hotel. Also, if you do not speak Japanese this may be a difficult hotel for you to stay at.

Plussat: It's within walking distance from the station and Himeji castle. Loved the free drinks at the lobby, and the bath salts, too! There are also a wide variety of restaurant choices within the neighborhood (but a lot of 'em closes early!). We had the roofdeck to ourselves that night, too, so that was a gread bonus.

Plussat: Good location and friendly staff

Miinukset: Room is a bit smaller than expected, but it works if you only use it for sleep

Plussat: The breakfast was good and healthy. The staff is great and the terrace view of the castle really great. Take a break! The beds are really great.

Miinukset: The air conditioning system was difficult to work, but you can still open the window. i traveled during the summer so it smelled a little of humidity.

Plussat: Effort to understand English language

Miinukset: Size of room. Beds were bigger than single beds and took up almost all of the room. Air conditioner didn’t work and room was stuffy. Breakfast was good.

Plussat: Price, location, location, location.

Miinukset: The room was too small for the two beds

Plussat: Well located, five minutes walk to Himeji Castle entrance. Compact room but comfortable bed. It’s about twenty minutes walk to the train station but an easy walk even trailing baggage. It was exactly what I was looking for in Himeji.

Plussat: Spa Laundromat facility Breakfast

Miinukset: Temperature and stuffyness of the room Business feel of the room and lack of lights - not very welcoming Space organisation in the room made it feel even smaller than expected

Plussat: It was clean and ok room. Clean towels hanging at the door everyday. The SPA looked nice but couldn't use it beacuse of tattoos. Close to the station and near the centre.

Miinukset: Slightly to hard beds but otherwise ok. Very small room for 2 persons. The breakfast could have been opened longer than too 9 o'clock.

Plussat: Staff were excellent. The spa facilities were great - we tried the private family room which was really good. Hotel only a 10 mins walk from the main station.

Miinukset: Bathroom was a little bit dirty. Room was quite dated and dark.

Plussat: Was clean, pleasant - but very small rooms. The smallest we stayed in across Japan. But for a short stay it was manageable for both couples.

Miinukset: TV on during breakfast in the dining hall.

Miinukset: Booked non-smoking room, was given on smoking floor. Could not sleep because the smell all over the room also the blanket. Bad impression!

Plussat: location was perfect; breakfast was great; the facilities were great

Plussat: Overall good experience but a bit pricey for the service compare to other similar range hotels. The spa/ fitness is not included. The location is right in front of the station - it is very pactical.

Miinukset: For the price, we would have expected more services : spa included, luggages brought into our room, or anything else.

Plussat: Front desk staff were excellent

Miinukset: Room was too hot and cooling didn’t work. There was plastic rubbish on the floor. The “hot” food at dinner and breakfast was colld.

Miinukset: Expecting some nice standing hotel and got a basic business room, very small and with a very poor view.

Plussat: The room was comfortable and spacious. The breakfast was healthy and delicious.

Miinukset: Maybe it was just a language barrier, but the staff at the registration desk weren’t as helpful or as friendly as they could have been. Also they were not knowledgeable of local events occurring in Himeji which it seems would be an important part of their job.

Plussat: Very close to the South exit of JR Himeji.

Plussat: I liked everything about this property.

Miinukset: Nothing to dislike

Plussat: Location is perfect

Plussat: Easy check in and out, close to bus stop

Miinukset: Location

Plussat: Basic inexpensive hotel that did the job for one night. Easy to get to city centre or 'Last Sumaurai' temple (Shosa mountain). McDonalds is a very short distance away. Breakfast was buffet style and adequate. Room functional and comfortable enough. Free parking. Staff friendly and courteous.

Miinukset: Exit from the car park was very difficult and relied on other drivers letting you out at a busy junction. Surrounding area not that good but Japan is safe wherever you are. Beds were hard, as most are in Japan.

Plussat: the bathroom

Miinukset: no

Plussat: Clean, comfortable and good location.

Miinukset: No coffee.

Plussat: Conveniently located right in between Himeji station and Himeji castle. The quiet surrounding and the great facilities provided offered a comfortable stay. Great value!

Plussat: Very comfortable bed and pillow. There‘s everything you need and near to the railwaystation.

Miinukset: Bathroom is really small.

Plussat: Staff were helpful and pleasant.

Miinukset: No family rooms and the rooms were very small. No cots available.

Plussat: The location was easy walking distance from station and to the castle. Himeji is a lovely place to spend a night.

Miinukset: Hotel was in a back lane so a little difficult to locate. Also the bathroom was very tiny with a big step down out of it. Though it was adequate I think they should warn people in case of mobility issues.

Plussat: The location of the property is close to the station and castle. Staff are friendly

Miinukset: The rooms are tiny (even for Japan standards), suitable for perhaps one person for an over night stay. With two people and luggage we needed to strategically manoeuvre ourselves around the room! Also rooms are a little dated

Plussat: Great location. Clean.

Miinukset: Very limited English

Plussat: The location is great - close to the station and the castle. And there are many restaurants around it.

Miinukset: It's located in a side street and some signs are written in katakana. So if you cannot read Japanese and are not used to navigate the side streets in Japan, it can be a bit difficult to find.

Plussat: Staff were very friendly and helpful

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Old hotel, looks a little run down

Plussat: There are public baths downstairs, which were really lovely. I chose a room without a bathroom, but it still had a toilet and sink inside of the room. The entrance to the hotel is beautiful. Hotel was easy to find, and a short walk from the station.

Plussat: Hotel is okay for the money we've paid. Sauna was a bonus.

Miinukset: A bit run down.

Plussat: Comfortable beds and very helpful staff. One of the employees spoke English very well, which was nice for a change.

Plussat: Breakfast was good.

Miinukset: The room was smelly.

Plussat: The overall atmosphere was nice. The room was very comfortable

Plussat: Run-of-the-mill business hotel.

Miinukset: Double room a bit cramped.

Plussat: Good hotel, near the station

Plussat: Very good location and excellent staff

Miinukset: The layout of the room made it a bit small. Otherwise great value

Plussat: 5 mins from the station and from Himeji Castle Cheap coin laundry

Miinukset: Very expensive for what it was Small rooms, not particularly clean Unpleasant reception smelled of food, with low grade breakfast served there Early check out time

Plussat: Friendly staff and free meals provided. Clearly marked fire escapes and stairs.

Miinukset: High step up to bathroom

Plussat: The room is ok, good size and good bed

Miinukset: When we arrived they gave us a smoking room, but we told them and they change us to another room. They were so nice with us

Plussat: They served quite a decent breakfast, and dinner with Curry & Udon (Japanese style noodles). The location is also in the shopping area. I bet only a handful number of great hotels like this offer a double room for 6500 yen in Himeji.

Miinukset: If I were to give a positive advice, then double rooms should be a bit bigger.

Plussat: Two beds means lots of space for a Japanese room.

Miinukset: Kind of noisy. We were on the top floor and could hear cars on the street. Worse, there were construction works nearby which started early, waking us up early.

Plussat: Free food, yay

Plussat: Staff was extremely helpful and friendly!

Miinukset: Rooms were small.
