Top Kotohira Shrine Hotel Reviews

JR CLEMENT INN HIMEJI

10/10 Excellent

"Close to station Great breakfast Included drinks late afternoon Tea rice in the evening I enjoyed Comfortable mattress I really enjoyed this place thanks to earplugs Close to railway hence noisy. Earplugs were necessary for sleep"

Hotel Monterey Himeji

10/10 Excellent

"Only great things to say about this hotel . Rooms are sufficiently spacious and clean with good WiFi connection . The morning breakfast has very good spread and the view ( especially if the breakfast is set in the 14th floor ) is excellent with view of the Himeji castle. Here too there is free coffee until 22:00 hrs at the reception area . The staff are very friendly and polite. This hotel has many elevators and hence there is no wait time at all . The hotel itself has a direct connection to the mall and very close to Himeji station . I would recommend this hotel for all type of suitors including business travelers, solo travelers, couples and families ."

Himeji Castle Grandvrio Hotel

8/10 Good

"A very nice hotel close to Himeji station and the castle. The breakfast is very generous and the hotel staff are very attentive. It is impeccably clean. However, the rooms are quite small and there isn’t even space under the bed for any kind of luggage. Bear this in mind if you have a large suitcase (you might be able to store it closed and vertically in the small wardrobe)"

APA Hotel Himeji Ekikita

10/10 Excellent

"Good hotel in a great location with an excellent and helpful staff. Minutes away and easy walking distance from Himeji Station, the Castle, and a covered shopping arcade with many shops and restaurants. Plus you have easy access to all the stores in and around the train station. Rooms are clean, thoughtfully outfitted and functional."
