Not really clean, dust in a room. Queue for a Onsen.

tasty food, deep dive into old Japan history and traditions. Onsen-like bath separate for man and woman. Great for a kids

Stayed in March 2024

Air conditioner was a bit old, but works. No heating in the toilet area.

I enjoyed the old school tatami room very much. The bath facility (even though originally public use) you can lock and use on your own, was very comfortable.

The pillow is a little small and hard so it's hard to sleep and there's no water to drink

There is a bathtub for one people even tho it's share bahtroom but I dont mind. The breakfast, is a little cold (except rice) but I know it's usually be this way for Japanese breakfast

nothing to mention. was a really pleasent stay.

It was a hidden gem. its a guesthouse right in the shopping street. it felt like the guesthouse had 3 houseparts. the main room was full of dark wooden furniture, the cooking place and with a water dispenser. then you had to follow a small corridor with different wallpaint to your room. the facilities were one floor lower. a very nice and helpfull host.

English not so good, but hey it's Japan right?

Traditional style Ryokan, little retro but I liked that. Big room, so nice I decided to stay an extra night. The staff were awesomely friendly and helpful! Would definitely stay again. 😁

Nothing to say maybe just a washing machine but there is a coin laundry next to the accommodation.

Very great ryokan style room next to a station and near good spots of the city (convenient store, china town, shopping era, not far from the Kobe flower garden). The room is clean, the common bath is very big and clean, same for the common toilets.

I didn't like the thin futon and the thick bean pillow. They are a little hard for my body type. I don't like the shower and sink tab are leaky. It made it hard for me to adjust the shower water at first, so maybe just a reminder for the guest before hand will solve the problem.

I like the authentic Japanese family atmosphere and the close location to the Harbor and Kobe tourist center and Chinatown. It is indeed the best place to be for traveling to Kobe for the first time. I also like that I can leave my luggage at the location early. I like the numerous rooms for option. I love the spacious rooms in Wafuku style.

Not much it was what we expected. Not a place for those who don't want to sleep on a futon. We loved it.

Very traditional Japanese hotel with futons. The staff were lovely and there was everything we could have wished for in the room. The location is really good between Motomachi and Kobe (Hyogo) stations. Handy for train transport and subway. It's an interesting area with funky shops and restaurants.

Comfy bed, lots of room, great breakfast

Stayed in March 2023

Each client a bit isolated (if travelling alone), so not exactly chummy or familial. I didn't have breakfast, not included with my reservation where perhaps one might have met folks. A bit more common space would be nicer.

Not really a "typical" ryokan -- the room quite large and typically furnished but on fourth floor (with lift), no common space that I could tell except in kitchen/dining room which was not quite "open to everyone". So I did not really meet anyone, not a "family" feel. But easy to find and pretty central and clean,

There could be better privacy in the restrooms. They are shared for both genders, but there are urinals for men. There may be an embarassing moment when a gentleman is using the urinal and a lady needs to walk around him to the toilet cubicle.

Good location, close to train station Hanakuma. Kind stuff, but not sure if they can speak English, because I spoke Japanese to them. There's a restaurant in the ground floor.

Not the hotel’s fault, but there was a big group(s) of Japanese women staying on the same floor and they were very loud all night long into the morning and throughout the morning too. Like many other Japanese inns/guesthouses I’ve stayed at, you could literally hear every little thing from the whole floor. I guess all older facilities just have really weak walls, but I wish there was at least an enforced quiet hour like some places have. Or have common areas for socializing away from guest rooms. Was very frustrating not being able to sleep at all on my last night. The shower room is communal but set up in a way where there’s potentially a long wait. After a day of nonstop rain, was frustrating to come back only to have to wait at least an hour to shower.

I loved the location, very close to the main area. My room was spacious and comfy, futon and pillow were comfy, there was even a fridge in the room. The elevator was fast and convenient.

Distance from main Trainline

Comfortable and clean

My own fault here, as I knew the room had a futon instead of a bed when I booked. I didn't mind this at first, but after a few days I wanted a proper bed.

Cheap price, close to train station, reasonable walking distance to major sights. Roomy with good storage space to put away luggage. Nice Japanese character to the facility.
