Hotel Universal Port is a 4-minute walk from Universal Studios Japan and a 20-minute drive from Osaka Station. It offers 1 restaurants, and rooms with free WiFi.

Rooms were pretty standard hotel rooms, but quite spacious. Beds firm, but comfortable. Pillows were odd. Bathroom was small, Japanese style, with a bath tub. Separate toilet which is always welcome with several people sharing a space. We had 2 rooms booked for our family of 5 and were able to request the adjoining door be opened between the rooms - that was an unexpected bonus. Location was very convenient for the station and USJ, which was our reason for choosing the hotel. It was wonderful to be able to head straight back to the hotel after our busy and exhausting day at USJ. The concierge helped us to arrange luggage forwarding, which we appreciated.

    Loved the design of the hotel. Like being on a cruise ship. The view from our room was gorgeous. Felt luxurious and special! The rooftop bar was spectacular at night. Staff were warm and welcoming. We initially booked 2 nights here, but after the first night, we decided to book in for a 3rd! We had an executive room and had access to the executive lounge with free drinks and food at certain times. It was amazing value! 100% recommend staying here in an executive room :)

    So close to the heart of quaint Chinatown & Mottomatchi shopping Mall and a 10 minute walk to central Kobe through designer shopping streets or one stop on the train. The loop sightseeing bus stops right round the corner in both directions linking to all sights. One stop from the airport monorail to Kobe but we chose to walk the 11 minutes.

    The hostel is very beautiful and cozy with artistic interior design. I really enjoyed my stay here even if I didn’t get to meet the host. (Everything was arranged on the phone) The room was very comfortable and clean. The bed was super comfy and I would have loved to stay here longer!

    Parking is free if you drive here Shuttle bus to Sanomiya station every 20 minutes where the central of Kobe is Scene - right next to Kobe harbor that you get to enjoy the whole ocean outlet Location - Mosaic mall and Umie are right next to the hotel with a short walk of less than 5 minutes that you can find more than 500 different restaurants and shops there Interior design is Westernized, which gives people a relax feeling, unlike most Japanese hotels Spacious enough
