The owner is so so nice and helpful and a really interesting guy to talk to! Can highly recommend the stay, its a few minute walk from the train station and then just a few minutes to Kobe centre. Really nice quiet area with good food around.

Excellent location near to a JR train station and was close to lots of local restaurants. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The property also had a down stairs bar. During my stay both 5he locals and other guests visited, which was great fun.

I stayed in the 4-person dorm, but really, it was more like two 2-people room connected by a shared wall, with a small curtained passage. There were two showers and limited bathrooms, but there was no wait time. The hostel is very close to the subway lines, but it is apparently near the red-light district. I didn't find it unsafe and would probably stay again as it is good value, but this may be something to consider. The staff/host were extremely nice.

Stayed here for a visit to the expo. The location is excellent. 5 min walk to the chuo line which brings you to the expo in 15 mins. Place had self service check in. Everything was clean. Bed comfortable. Only downside was that shower was on ground floor and room was on 3rd but honestly not a big problem.

The bar/cafe area downstairs was very nice and very welcoming. As was the owner who was really kind and would always say goodbye or hello with a big smile on his face every time i would enter / leave. The room was nice and clean and the beds were good with a nice warm duvet and a big thick blanket in case you got cold. The guesthouse was located just outside the main area of kobe and located between two stations for easy access to other parts of the city.

incredible online service with helpful staff reply message immediately and really early self check-in started from 00:00 on the booking day!!! though we never meet the staff during this stay, the instructions are very clear for every entrance to each area, and don’t forget to fill up the form of your stay. 2 mins. straight walk from JR NISHIKUJO station exit with elevator. we got a bunk beds room for two persons, with sink, refrigerator, microwave and desk inside. sockets and night light at every bed. well cleaning, well air conditioning, well equipped, even got free washing machine and dryer in the shower room! it supposed to be full booking but we rarely met others in the hostel, everyone keeps quiet there! it pops up oneday after a long search for the stay in OSAKA, that’s why i think it must be a hidden list on websites and we got luck this time!

All hostels in Kobe

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The hostel has really nice interior in what feels like a euro-Japan mix, nice kitchen, small sofa area where you can sit and read or put up your laptop, very charming bathroom with Japanese bathtub. The bunk beds are big and spacious with lots of room for your luggage. The neighbourhood is nice with lots of coffee shops and restaurants, about a 30min walk from the big shopping district.

    Easily in the top 3 of all the hostels I stayed at. Lovely vibe, cool staff and guests, very clean and charming hostel (I actually really liked the train noises). Private rooms are spacious and relatively cheap. This is what every hostel should aspire to be
