This hotel exceeded my expectations! It was in a great location which was very close to Himeji Station and the staff were very kind and accommodating to my early arrival. I was able to drop my luggage with reception and go out to tour the city. When I came back in the evening, they had already put my luggage in my room which was awesome. I also used the onsen facilities which were exceptional. The onsen was very clean and had a calming atmosphere. They even had a small outdoor bath on the roof which was lovely. I also used the laundry room which was very easy and straightforward to use. I had a very comfortable stay and wish I would have stayed longer than 1 night!

Nothing!

The onsen is really lovely to relax after a long day! Also the free ice cream and ramen is a bonus! The location is right by the train station and very close to Himeji castle, which makes it perfect for sightseeing. The size of the room was a little larger than I was expecting, so that's pretty great too.

The itself room was a little dusty, but overall quite clean.

I always like the Dormy Inn hotels. This one in Himeji is also great : the room is clean and enjoyable, the view is nice. They give you free dessert and after the onsen you can also take free yogurt and ice cream and noodle at night. They have all the facilities and equipement you need. The emplacement is great because it's really close to the main train station. They can keep your luggage if needed. You will feel safe as a solo traveller.

It was the first time an employee asks me if I have any tatoo during check-in ..... because I have a small one they gave me a patch to cover it in the onsen. I was very surprised so be carefull if you have lots of them because you definetly can't go to onsen in this hotel ! The bed and pillow quality wasn't the most confortable and there is only a little isolation so you can hear the room next to you. They are only two elevators so it can be quite slow sometimes.

Our room was mostly very comfortable - clean and quiet, with good quality bedding and enough storage for our suitcases. The real standouts at this hotel were the beautiful, sparkling clean onsen and sauna and the exceptional buffet breakfast featuring local specialties.

Our room's very efficient air conditioner could not be adjusted and so made our room overly cold.

Exceptionally convenient location for the train station. Great staff service too - including an extra touch of putting our luggage in the room (we had dropped it off before check in time). Good hot spring facilities and the smart TV was a nice touch.

Some of the room furnishings were a little worn out and the hotel could use another elevator, some of the waits were a little long at busy times.

The location was perfect. Just a short walk through the central part of the city to the Castle. I highly recommend walking from the hotel to the castle at night. There are lots of restaurants and convenience stores very close by. The free ramen was great. Served by the loveliest chef in Japan. The breakfast was incredible. The onsen was lovely. All the staff were so friendly. So glad we stayed here.

Nothing.

Good breakfast with Western and Japanese options - we used both. 3 minute walk from Himeji station, about 15 minutes to Himeji-jo. Many great places to eat nearby. Staff was friendly and helpful in storing bags prior to check in (and receiving them from Yamato shipping) and storing bags after check out.

Very close to the Shinkansen station and we could walk to the castle, great friendly and helpful staff. breakfast was a very nice surprise they seemed to have everything. comfortable room if a little dated. but we would stay again and I had no complaints. it served the purpose as a stop over perfectly. I didn't go the the public baths but my son said it was clean and relaxing.

The rooms are just a little small for two people great for one.

The staff we're incredibly helpful. Particularly Mr Y Sasaki who called a different hotel for us so that we could make a reservation there after Himeji as that hotel only took reservations by phone and spoke no English. Lots of small freebies, ice creams, ramen, and the breakfast was nice, good fresh fruit. The room was very clean

We were there for one week, so they gave us a bigger, corner room. Loved the hot spring, ice cream, yakult, soba, and free laundry machines! The staff were nice and it was a very enjoyable stay for my daughter and I!

I think it used to be a smoking hotel, because the hallways and rooms smelled a bit like stale cigarettes. I don’t know that they can do much, as it is probably embedded in the walls.
