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.

Amazing, kind and helpful host. Might be the best hostel I’ve stayed at, rooms were so clean and modern and the host was very understanding of me sleeping in due to a sleep condition. He was very helpful with storing luggage and kept all the facilities clean. 10/10

Location close to several metro lines. The property is very clean. The owner is a super helpful Chinese lady. She learns Japanese and always tries to help. She also offers coffee and real Chinese tea in the morning. I work remotely while traveling, and this place is perfect for online workers. It is quiet most of the time, it has proper working space, hot water to make yourself a tea, or a microwave for your lunch while working.

I recently had an amazing experience at a hostel I stayed at and I wanted to share my thoughts. From the moment I walked in, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The dorm room I stayed in was clean and comfortable. I also appreciated the thoughtful touches like individual power outlets for each bed. One of the highlights of my stay was the hostel's social activities. They organized a cafe at night which was a great way to meet other travellers. I also enjoyed hanging out in the common room and chatting with other guests over a cup of tea. Overall, I had a fantastic experience at this hostel and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and sociable place to stay. The staff were top-notch and went above and beyond to make sure I had a great time. I can't wait to come back!

Location is perfect to access everywhere in the city. Hotel is clean, rooms are comfy with everything you need. You don't see the staff often but it's always a pleasure to interact with them, as they're very helpful (and speak english !)

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
