Clean and comfortable hostel located right next to Himeji castle. The staff were very kind and friendly and gave me lots of helpful recommendations for the surrounding area. Definitely recommend for a night or two if visiting Himeji.

Very friendly owner. She gave me great advice on the coastal road to take on my motorbike. Short stay, but lovely town with friendly people. Himeji Castle ìs fantastic.

The guest owner is an incredible woman who took us out on the town to a festival and explained about everything She is so sweet and caring

A lovely cosy hostel !

“Very nice for a quick stop at Himeji”

Very close to the station and the castle ! Large showers and extra blankets for the dormitory rooms. Beautiful common room

“Lovely guest house”

Amazing value for money. My best sleep in Japan the beds don’t look like much but for some reason they were so comfy. The host was very friendly and kind. Cozy area to hang out in the evenings.

“Convenient, comfy and homely”

Beds so comfy, lovely friendly staff, great location

“Central, cheerful and cozy place to stay in Himeji”

Lovely decor and friendly owner who gave useful sightseeing tips.

“Simple: 588 will always be my first choice for my accommodation when in Himeji, which often.”

Seriously, Kyoko San (staff) made an enjoyable stay even SO MUCH better. A warm heart and genuine interest in all of her guests, Kyoko was a wealth of relevant and positive suggestions about what to see, try eating etc in whatever amount of time a visitor had‼️

Lovely place to stay in Himeji, perfect location, the owner Kyoko is very nice and gives excellent tips and recommendations !

Beautiful guesthouse and lovely hosts. One of the ladies at the front desk recommended a few places for us to try the Himeji almond toast. And what great recommendations they were, super tasty. The location is perfect, 10 minutes from station by foot and 5 to the castle.

“Highly recommend”

Very good location Clean and comfortable rooms for the price The owner is very nice and helpful, and the atmosphere is nice for solo travelers

“The location is so nice and just nearby the White Castle and also the supermarket is really close to,around 3 minutes wa”

The host is very kind and willing to help we travelers

Host was super nice and friendly. The hostel was really cute, and it felt like I was staying in someone’s home rather than a hotel. It was also way quieter than the capsule hotels I’ve been to, which made for a much better night’s rest.

“Great location, very friendly staff, comfortable atmosphere.”

Very convenient location, very nice & helpful host, and a homely atmosphere great for socialising.

Very cosy. Nice staff

Really nice place for the price. Clean, nice and welcoming common room. Limited personal space, but nothing impeding. Really appreciated our stay here! And staff was very kind, thanks!
