Nikko hotels in Kobe, Hyogo Prefecture

"We had a great stay at Hotel Universal Port. The hotel was very nice, clean, and exactly what you’d expect from a well-run theme park hotel. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the rooms were well-kept and comfortable. Amenities were a bit limited, but that’s understandable given the location and the high number of guests. One feature we really appreciated was the luggage storage—being able to store our bags after checkout for free was a big plus. There is a ¥100 deposit, but it’s returned when you bring back the key. We also enjoyed how close the hotel is to the ferry, which made our trip to the Osaka Aquarium much faster and more enjoyable compared to taking the train. While there is a short walk to Universal Studios and the nearby shops, it’s very manageable and actually helps keep the hotel area quieter despite being so close to the park. Overall, a very convenient and comfortable stay, and we would definitely consider staying here again."

"Staff was very helpful. More than adequate laundry facilities. Convenient location. "

"Great hotel, great location, all the amenities you need. Just steps from food and shopping. I would choose this hotel for my return trip to the Osaka area. Walking distance to Dotonburi and other local attractions."

"It was for an emergency. We lost our tran and had to stay last min. It’s not bad just know very small with individual beds "

"Great location from Kyoto station. Short walk from station to the hotel. Hotel next to Aeon market and mall. Great for getting food and snacks. "

"Fantastic amenities, very friendly staff"

"Big clean room. Great pillows for a change. Reasonably good buffet breakfast selection."

"Good hotel to stay"

"This hotel is fantastic. Spotlessly clean bathroom, amazing shower pressure, super convenient transit access, beautiful park down the road, close to Osaka Castle, evening entertainment, high quality ample amenities. This was our first hotel in Japan and we were blown away. Complimentary coffee and tea drinks in the lobby were a pleasant and enjoyable extra touch (not just regular drinks too, but lattes, cappuccinos and matcha drinks). The lobby lounge doubles as a cafe/bar in the evenings and the space is beautiful. They provided shaving cream, skincare, and face masks as well which we loved. The room is a bit small and ours did not have a view, but the bed was comfortable and the room size didn't affect our stay in the least. You can open a checked bag on the floor and store a checked bag, as well as 2 carry on luggage items comfortably. All in all, highly recommended. "
