Omo7 Kochi By Hoshino Resorts

Stayed here for almost 20 days during my business trip to Cochin. The property is well maintained. The rooms are elegant and orderly. The bathroom was clean and hygienic. The breakfast was simple but delicious. The staff are very polite and sincere. Right from the front desk to housekeeping and room dining, they do their best to make your stay comfortable. The Panthal cafe located along with the hotel offers a unique menu with high standards. All together it was a pleasant stay and worth every penny. Strongly Recommended.

“The restaurant was worth the trip.”

Nikko ran this hotel until recently, when Hoshino Resort took over and became OMO7. As such, some parts of the lobby seemed rundown and needed sprucing up. That said, my room was well-maintained and fairly up-to-date regarding facilities. The typical washlet, deep soaking tub, and Nespresso machine… more

Nikko ran this hotel until recently, when Hoshino Resort took over and became OMO7. As such, some parts of the lobby seemed rundown and needed sprucing up. That said, my room was well-maintained and fairly up-to-date regarding facilities. The typical washlet, deep soaking tub, and Nespresso machine were among the features I liked. This was a twin room, and one curious aspect was that one bed was visibly higher than another. There is only one restaurant in the hotel on the 22nd floor where breakfast is served. The place transforms into a French restaurant with set menus for lunch and dinner. The restaurant offers scenic views of the city of Kochi and the surrounding areas. The meal's courses were well executed, including the main course consisting of a very moist stewed chicken. Since I arrived on a noon-time flight from Tokyo Haneda, I had to wait 3 hours before I could check in at 15:00. The receptionist at the front desk had some difficulty explaining to me that they do not allow early check-ins. I understand that this is because of a shortage of workers in the hotel industry. Nevertheless, my room was always clean. I also give this hotel high marks for sustainability. Rooms are provided with a pitcher and ice bucket, and there is a pantry on the 10th floor with a water dispenser, ice machine, and microwave oven. There is a vending machine in the lobby where you can buy drinks and snacks. The lobby also has an area with baskets containing amenities that guests can help themselves to.

“A Grand Hotel (slightly past its prime)”

The Hotel Nikko Kochi Asahi Royal is a very nice hotel, with a luxurious lobby, friendly staff, good breakfast, very large and spacious rooms, and a fairly convenient location – walking distance to most places including the central district of Kochi, but just far enough out of the way to seem quiet and relaxing. While our stay was pleasant and comfortable, the rather dated bathroom and very visible general wear and tear in the rooms left us with the impression that the hotel, and its rooms in particular, are no longer as grand as they may have once been. Overall it was a pleasant stop that served us well on our trip, but deep down we still have that touch of disappointment that we had come a decade too late to experience it in its prime.

“A convenient stopover”

We had an overnight stay here enroute from Takamatsu through the Iya Valley on our way to Uchiko and Matsuyama. The hotel easy to find and has car parking available. Our room was spacious enough but the bed a bit too hard for me, my husband found it ok though. The price was fair. We found the st… more

We had an overnight stay here enroute from Takamatsu through the Iya Valley on our way to Uchiko and Matsuyama. The hotel easy to find and has car parking available. Our room was spacious enough but the bed a bit too hard for me, my husband found it ok though. The price was fair. We found the staff to be friendly and accommodating. It was a convenient stopover hotel.
