Check-in is around 6 PM. At the 1st floor check-in desk, you set your breakfast time for the next day and receive a detailed explanation about the hotel's facilities. Afterward, a staff member escorts you to your room. This is the second-largest room among the 400 hotels I've stayed at in Japan. As usual, I start by taking photos. Then, I explore the room thoroughly, opening all the doors and drawers. The room is a massive open-plan space combining a living room and bedroom, with a study and a Japanese-style relaxation area equivalent to six tatami mats. Being a corner room, the terrace is L-shaped, offering panoramic views of Port Tower, Meriken Park, Mosaic, and the sea. Just breathing in this space feels healing. I spend an hour lying on the bed, simply breathing. For dinner, I head out briefly to the Mosaic restaurant area. On the way back, I stop by an Aeon supermarket to buy a half-bottle of champagne and pick up some snacks from a convenience store to pair with it. I take a refreshing bath while enjoying the night view of Port Tower. I indulge in a bubble bath with a glass of champagne. Next is terrace time. I set up a self-styled dining experience that rivals a restaurant, using candle lights from the room and moving the table closer to the tower view. With chilled champagne, I continue my serenade under the summer night sky. The red Port Tower changes into a blue Port Tower as time passes, showcasing a laser show that delights my eyes. The room is equipped with a powerful air conditioner, ensuring optimal coolness. Kobe is such a sophisticated city that there are no bugs. 🤣 Despite the enchanting night, I eventually fall asleep. I wake up at 5 AM but fail my sunrise mission. I go back to sleep. Since breakfast is scheduled for 8 AM, I wake up around 7:30 to prepare for the gourmet experience. Breakfast here is served as room service. I enjoy freshly baked Kobe bread and fried eggs (目玉焼き) made from eggs laid by chickens raised on Mount Rokko. I have an afternoon tea reservation at 1 PM, so after checking out at 10 AM, I leave my luggage at the hotel and take a quick trip to Osaka for a first round of afternoon tea via the rapid train. This hotel serves as the venue for my second round of afternoon tea. That concludes my stay review. Thank you.

🥂🛌 Hotel La Suite Kobe Harborland Great location, about 10 minutes walk from JR Kobe Station.ᐟ.ᐟ In front of you is Kobe Tower and the lights of Harborland.ᐟ.ᐟ All 70 rooms are spacious and comfortable with terraces and ocean views✨️ I went there during the Christmas season, so I was excited to see Christmas trees and illuminations everywhere🎄 The jacuzzi in the room was so amazing that I brought champagne and toasted while looking at the night view of Kobe🍾✴︎ .。 The room was always burning with aromas and smelled good. Healing music that sounded like the sound of waves was playing from the TV speaker? After the jacuzzi, I cooled down my heated body on the sofa on the balcony and chilled out. I had such a wonderful time✨️ I want to know the source of that healing music. 。 。 I would like to use this hotel again if I come to Kobe🩷🩷 #0 yen trip January 2025

#HotelAccommodationEvent I don't think I need any other explanation. It's the best vacation spot.👍 It's a bit pricey, but you don't need to go to another restaurant at all. The staff are so kind and friendly that it's almost burdensome. They're so kind that you want to run away when you make eye contact.^^ If I ever come back for vacation again, I'll definitely choose this place.

You'll feel like a princess when you come here!!! The only thing I'm not happy about is that it's a little far from the station?? Above all, the breakfast is the best!! You can choose between Japanese or Western and enjoy it in your room! #Hotel La Suite Kobe

#Japan and Korea City Hotel #Kobe #Overseas Travel #Hotel Recommendation This is a luxury hotel located in Kobe Port. Each room has a sea view terrace where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery and sea breeze. I booked an executive suite on a high floor, the room was spacious, elegantly decorated, and the bathroom had a jacuzzi which made me feel very relaxed. I had an exquisite dinner in the hotel's French restaurant, the service was attentive and the food was delicious, especially the Kobe beef, which was tender and juicy, and paired with red wine, it was a real treat. I also had a full body massage at the hotel's spa, the master's technique was very professional and made me feel very comfortable. I looked at the Kobe Port at night from the terrace, it felt very romantic and it was the most unforgettable accommodation experience of mine. Address: 7-2 Hatobacho, Chuo Ward, Kobe, Hyogo 650-0042 Japan

I stayed at La Suite Kobe in Harborland, a 10-minute walk from JR Kobe Station. This is a luxurious hotel with 70 rooms, all of which have an ocean view terrace. The lobby lounge where the front desk is located is small, but the large vase with flowers in the center is gorgeous, and the chandelier is also gorgeous. When I entered the room, there was a stylish red sofa, which was soft and comfortable to sit on. I lay down on it the whole time I was there (lol) The bathroom had a circular jacuzzi bathtub. You can see Kobe Port from this large window. There was a large terrace behind the twin bed, so I was happy to be able to see the Kobe night view at night and the sunrise by getting up early in the morning! I didn't know what the food was like because I was only staying overnight, but the restaurant here looks like it has a great atmosphere and is often used for proposals. In fact, there were two couples who I thought would be proposed to after this♡ There is also umie Mosaic within walking distance. Perfect for an elegant hotel stay! #besttrip2023 #KobeHotel #HotelLaSuiteKobe #KobeTrip #KobeHarborland

This is #HotelLaSuiteKobe. Recommended for couples and special anniversaries! It's a little pricey, but the services it offers make up for it. Definitely go with that special someone👍🏻

We stayed here as a couple on our anniversary. I've always wanted to go, so I'm glad we were able to go. As it's a small luxury hotel, the room was very luxurious, clean, and perfect. There is also a terrace, and the night view is beautiful. I'd like to come again. #CoupleTrip
