I've stayed in multiple hostels in various prefectures in Japan, and this one is by far my favourite one. The interior design of the lobby and the rooms creates an incredibly comfortable atmosphere. The hostel had all necessary amenities to make my 3-day stay wonderful. The staff members were incredibly friendly and helpful. All floors were very clean and well-kept. To top it all off, the location was ideal for me, not too far from the central station Sannomiya, allowing me to easily go around sightseeing. Will absolutely be recommending this cozy little haven to friends!

I didn't tried the breakfast but the location was very accessible just 5 minutes walk from the station if you have luggage then that isn't a very big deal bcz of good location. You don't need to walk much... Most of the facilities are nearby.... The place was clean cozy warm nice. I enjoyed my stay there!!!

Everything was good! Nice location to move & access the airport, the room was clean and the staff was so kind. It is not a rich hotel of course but the quality is way too good for the price. I am definitely coming back for the next time we visit Osaka again.

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.

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
