Hotels in Nada Ward, Kobe

I loved the Maya team, the neighbourhood and the nice recommendations that everyone shared with me.

Very helpful and friendly staff, a fun glamping experience

I really love this coffee hostel and this is my second time staying here. I was very surprised to see such an exaggerated 1-point rating. Firstly, Japan’s safety is widely recognized by travelers worldwide, and this guest’s personal feelings cannot change the fact that Japan is one of the safest countries in the world. Secondly, in a shared dormitory like a youth hostel, it’s reasonable for the host to ask guests not to lock the door from the inside, as this would prevent other roommates from entering. I feel this guest’s statement could lead to serious misunderstandings. Thirdly, as a shared dormitory, privacy is naturally affected, but that’s the nature of a youth hostel. It seems this guest doesn’t understand the concept of a youth hostel, and I suggest they choose such accommodations more carefully in the future. Additionally, the guest mentioned there was no space to organize luggage, which is completely contrary to my experience. Every dormitory room has reasonable space for luggage storage. Lastly, the guest hinted at the host’s nationality, suggesting that people from a certain country should avoid staying here. While this is their freedom of expression, I personally find it inappropriate. The café on the first floor is a great space for interaction, where you can meet young people from all over the world and have meaningful exchanges, which is one of the joys of traveling. The host is a friendly writer, knowledgeable, fluent in English, and very willing to engage with guests. Therefore, I believe this is a hostel worth staying at for a few days. In the future, whenever I return to this area, I will choose to stay here again.

A nice, affordable hostel in a good location.

Such a beautiful location on the mountain top with very generous and hospitable hosts. A beautiful experience and getaway from the city.

The whole experience was great. Location is also easy with access to everything.

It’s such a fantastic place that my children and I would really miss it.

The room was huge and very comfortable. Very quiet and relaxing.

Amazing service, amazing onsen, amazing rooms, just everything was amazing.

The authentic Onsen and Ryokan experience. Massage chair in the room.
