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.

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.

The atmosphere was really chill and welcoming. The host is super nice and I felt very welcome. They have a good kitchen area and cool and cozy rooms. In the evening everyone got together in the little bar area downstairs and had some drinks. Check-in was simple and even featured a YouTube video explaining everything.

Everything about this place. The atmosphere was very soothing. The location was close to Kobe Station and easy enough to get to Shin-Kobe Station from here. I felt the room was big enough for me and the other person sometimes residing there.

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.

Although no permanent staff all arrangement in line were fine as were the codes. Clear with large communal area although didn’t feel a hostel where folk socialised. Bedroom was clear and had sink fridge and microwave. Showers and toilets always clean. Right next to J loop station so easy to connect around Osaka and doorstep for Universal. Would definitely return

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
