Very good view of the Meriken Park. Enjoyed spending time and people watching in the balcony. Very close to the harborland. Mosaic is walkable if you get hungry, plenty of restaurants to choose from. Ate at the Chinese restaurant in the hotel, turned out to be quite good.

Helpful staff, great breakfast. The sunrise and the sea is amazing; note the weekend shuttles actually does not go to shin-kobe for 800 and 820 one - the note was confusing.

Beautiful ocean view and convenient free shuttle bus. However, the power outlets in the room are not next to the bed. The food is decent, though prices are a bit on the higher side. The swimming pool is quite small and not ideal for actual swimming. The highlight of this hotel is definitely the stunning ocean view.

Every aspect was superb. But with only one negative and its the shower's water pressure. Last three stays, water pressure was below average. Disappointing especially for an executive room.
