Good location in the city center with a lot of restaurants and bars nearby. Compared to other APA hotels the elevator is very convenient, no long waiting times.

The breakfast is quite sober and light, Japanese style breakfast but a toast or a piece of bread would have been welcome. Some fresh fruits would also not be too bad. The AC is regulated centrally and is set too warm, I opened the windows during the night but there is too much noise outside during the night with the window open from people partying till early morning.

APA Ekimae is a great location - central Kobe in Sannomiya and opposite Ikuta Shrine. From here I can easily access all the places I want to go - shrines, cafes, restaurants and Sannomiya night spots, the port, museums, and Nunobiki nature walks and falls. It is also very economical, clean and comfortable. Choosing a budget and central option allowed me to add extra days to my stay. The room is small but functional.

Breakfast choices are limited so I did not have breakfast at the hotel much. I tried a late breakfast, within the allowed hours, and most things were already taken away. But there are other good choices near the hotel. The room is very small - especially for two - but I was expecting this so not a big issue for the budget price.

The APA chain sets a high standard and this location is a good example of that. Though small, the room is well designed with plenty of hooks on the walls and counter top space in the bathroom. There is a kettle and a fridge in every room, and each guest gets two different ergonomic pillows. The location is great--just across from a temple, and a block away from the busy shopping area with lots of interesting architecture in the surrounding neighborhood. It's about a 7 minute walk over to the train station.

No negatives, except that unless you are a member of this chain, check out time is 10:00am. They will hold your bags for you after check out at no additional charge.

WiFi is free for use. Each room is assigned with a password for the single stay. The room is quite clean, which is the most significant merit of APA hotel. This time I travel to different city and also stay in another APA hotel, I found the two APA hotels provide the same quality of service, even the layout of the room is quite similar, which makes my stay very comfortable and satisfying.

Excellent location, a five minute walk from the center of Kobe market and right beside a beautiful temple! The Sannomiya metro exit is right around the corner. The staff were friendly and the room clean, with a comfortable bed and various amenities.

The room was a bit too small so I had to open the suitcase under the bed, but perfect for a solo traveler

The staff is so nice and supportive. Although they don't speak English well, you can find thier enthusiasm working thier job. The room has a light controller right next to your bed, which is so convenient. The bath room has basin and hot water so you can relax after a long day of walking.

It is kind of hard to open the window and you can't open it completely. So there is no sunlight. If you stay at your room whole day, it is a bit uncomfortable.

Nice location, a lot of restaurants, bars and shops in the neighborhood. Close to the railway station. Friendly staff.

This time I did not take breakfast because they don't serve fresh fruit and almost no bread.

The staff are very friendly, and check in/out is very quick and efficient. You can borrow an iron from reception. The room had everything else I needed.

There are two APA hotels in Sannomiya. I went to the other one first. My associate made the same mistake in reverse. This must happen a lot as they provided me with a ready made map to walk to the other one. It would be good if the names of the hotels weren’t so similar.

The room was clean and comfortable. The location was great. We like staying at APA hotels because we always know we will get a nice room for a reasonable price.

The pillows were hard but that's okay as we brought our own. The bed was pressed up against the curtains and they get a bit caught up with the blankets, but nothing too bad. We were happy.

The rooms are clean and quiet. Staff was extremely helpful. It was convenient to several train stations. Many restaurants available nearby.

Not a complaint, but a simple heads up: this side of the station is VERY busy and popular as a nightlife area. The other side of the station is quieter. The rooms, were quiet so no worries on that end.
