We booked this hotel to be close to the train station as we were only staying for 1 night. It was very handy location and ok for the price. The room was clean but everything looks a little tired.

Himeji has always been a favourite place to visit.
Himeji has always been a favourite place to visit. This is my 3rd or 4th visit. In cherry blossom season, it is nothing short of spectacular. In winter, it's not so green, but the gardens are still worth seeing and wandering through. The castle itself is worth every cent of the entry fee and one could easily spend 2 or more hours exploring all the nooks and crannies before even reaching the 6 floor castle. Climbing to the top is must, but remember you will need to take off your shoes (and the stairs are more like wide rung ladders, so hold onto the rails!
The eateries are also worthwhile visiting, with plenty of choice in the area between the station and the castle. We visited a Vietnamese restaurant at lunchtime - it was huge and totally empty apart from us, and the food was fabulous - we chose banh mi which was just as good as in its' home country.

Loved arriving on the train and as we exited the station in the evening all the Christmas lights on the wide Avenue running straight from station to the lit up Himeji Castle in the distance..just stunning. The castle is amazing and a beautiful garden alongside it. Lovely to stroll around.

Himeji castle is a must see.
Himeji castle is a must see. Extremely interesting and along with the associated park is a good 3 hour adventure. Free English speaking guides at the entrance will accompany you. Well sign posted with many displays along the route through the castle in English.

I have been here so many times.
I have been here so many times. The castle, Himeji Central Park, the aquarium.... there are so many wonderful places to visit, and at the same time, it is full of terrific shops and restaurants. I don't think there is anybody who would NOT have a good time in this pleasant little city.

The castle exceeded our expectations.
The castle exceeded our expectations. You can access the entire castle and grounds and it is more beautiful than any photo I'd seen of it. Also, the multitude of alleyways and shops is lovely, safe and fun

It is a lovely, but bustling little city.
It is a lovely, but bustling little city. The castle is within sight of just about every hotel. It is worth a day's visit. However, I would avoid it in August; it must be so hot inside, as most places probably were during the 1400s. HImeji Central Park is definitely worth a visit. There is convenient bus service, and the park is often open late on weekends. There is an aquarium, too. The city itself is loaded with old-fashioned shopping streets, closed to cars, and covered, a bonus in case you have forgotten an umbrella. It is indeed a shopping mecca. You will find everything imaginable, and near the castle, loads of old shops PLUS an open-air market that is loads of fun to browse. I am not sure whether it is open daily, so check the days/hours. Finally, there is an open, public space/park right in front of the station that makes hanging around the station area good fun. Several ice cream shops, crepe shops, loads of bread shops. The bread shop in the Hotel Nikko is particularly good, and it is a 15-second walk from the station.
The location is truly wonderful. It is literally across the street from the Himeji Station. Easy access if you arrive by JR/Shinkansen.
Also not far from the Himeji Castle and many shopping malls and restaurants.
My room had a nice view into the train station - if you like train watching, this is a wonderful location.
Paid sauna, pool, and Japanese bathhouse - I didn't go but went to see it. If I stayed for more than one night, I would actually go use them. Looked pretty nice.
This was a super funny experience for my friend Joe and I. Its obviously a love hotel, but we were using it just as a place to stay to do a day trip in Himeji Castle. And for this purpose, it was fantastic! our room surprisingly had a view of the castle, from the third floor. the bed was comfy, you just have to not think about what's gone on there and not look too closely, but the free parking is great, its secure, its cheap and the location is fantastic.
Location: 5 mins walking distance to Himeji castle.
Cleanliness: neat and clean
Staff: friendly and helpful
Facilities: vending machines are available, and you can see Himeji castle from their terrace
Breakfast: nothing fancy, but they got fairly good choices with buffet style and it’s quite satisfying.
The restaurant attached to the hotel is quite good too. They have choices of local Sake and local delicacy ok their menu.
Overall good value for money.
The guesthouse is a small and cozy place, very well situated.
It's about 5 minutes walk both from the Himeji Castle and from the station, with many stores, bars and conveniences all nearby.
The owner was super kind, even though my Japanese is not that good. She suggested me good places to eat and for sightseeing.
Could not recommend a better place to stay in Himeji, specially considering the price and the location!
The features of a business hotel were available including a microwave near reception. We could easily walk to a supermarket to pick up food to eat in. Also, we were able to walk comfortably to the Castle and train station. There was a slightly higher than usual step up into the bathroom which is OK for us but could be a challenge for someone with impaired mobility.
This hotel was so fabulous we were disappointed that we were only staying one night! Our room on the 13th Floor, was huge and very comfortable, with a fabulous view towards Himeji Castle. The bathroom was large, exceptionally clean and well equipped with an excellent shower. We had a breakfast buffet included which we'd forgotten about so that was a nice surprise.
The double bed was the size of an ocean and very comfortable. The view from the breakfast room was stunning. The buffet offered plenty of choice. The location next to the station was perfect and the castle and its wonderful garden was ten minutes' walk away. We were sad we stayed for only one night as Himeji has lots of other attractions.
The hotel is a bit far away from the Himeji JR station (15 minutes walk from station and 30 minutes walk from Himeji jo). Suggest to take the shuttle bus or TAXI. The ohuro (Japanese SPA) is really amazing!! There are a lot of onsen pools you can enjoy and there is a sauna room. The front desk service is really kind and helpful.
conveniently located opposite of to railway station and many restaurants and shops, 20mins walk from Himeji castle. Friendly staff, nice lounge, very quiet, lots of space, separate luggage area (unlike so many other hostels), brand new and super clean, has even a manga library! nice decoration. Beds have private tv/screen.
Great hotel with very attentive staff.
Very close to Himeji castle and arcades with plenty of shops and a large supermarket. About an 8 minute walk to the station.
Drink machine on each floor.
Breakfast for ¥1000 in the hotel dining room with lots of choices.
Windows that open.
Tomo-san was very welcoming and the atmosphere was homely. Breakfast was tasty and different both days, and it was nice to sit with the other guests and chat to them. The shower had good pressure and heat, and the room was comfortable. Himeji Castle wasn't too far to walk.
Well situated near JR Himeji - railway station - and the Himeji castle and gardens, main touristic location. Good value for money. They gave me a double room instead of a single one, as it was available and I asked a not noisy one, on a lower floor.
Good value for money hotel at walking distance from Himeji main station.
If you're lucky, you'll have a good view on the castle.
Room was around 19m2 with a nice view on the surroundings.
Staff is polite and helpful.
This was a unique little slice of Japanese culture with a very good location within easy walking distance of the train station and castle as right within town centre. Lovely host who was helpful and friendly.
Opulent hotel right next to the station with big clean rooms. Breakfast on the top floor was expensive but worth it. Mixture of western and japanese food.
Nice big public bath with sauna.
Comfortable and clean room with all needs catered for. A little small, but that is usual in Japan. Friendly staff on the desk. Convenient for the station and the castle.
- Walking distance to both of Himeji station and Himeji castle.
- Cosy and Japanese-taste rooms and interior.
- They kindly kept my luggage before check-in time.
