Hostels in ChugokuHostel

A good spot to stop along the Shimanami Kaido. More of a hostel than a hotel. Our room had bunk beds and a futon and we had to put the sheets on ourselves. Shared washroom and showers.

Great location and a clean, comfortable room and shower. The staff were very friendly and spoke great english.

I liked the size of the beds and the little locker underneath it for your luggage. It is overall quite spacious and I had no issues with the shared areas like bathrooms and showers.

Stayed here for 3 nights — based myself here when returning from Matsue, intending to travel around Tottori & Kurayoshi.

The extras included are quite nice, free ice cream, and soft drinks. And free breakfast breads. The massage chair was a great value at 200 yen for 10 minutes.

The have every amenity and the employers are really nice! There is available drinks, ice cream and bread (morning)
The location is very close to the station.
Very clean.

As a foreigners, this hostels give me the experiences. The service was good, and the room was clean but is not good smells sometimes.
The rooms was share with another people.

I love the hotel clean very peaceful ❤️

Great value and hospitality! Because the area is relatively isolated from major traffic (a reason people come here! ) there are not as many offerings for restaurants, cafes, or convenience stores.

Beautiful accommodation and cafe/bar, well worth the walk up the steps with a heavy backpack! The staff are so friendly. Really lovely rooms, delicious draft beer and fantastic views.

The view is, well everyone's mentioned it already.
I loved that guests could use the cafe area as a shared space, great for winding down from all the exploring. The hot lemonade was excellent.

I loved this hostel!
I stayed two nights and I didn’t want to leave! The owners are lovely people. They made us feel so welcomed and we had some good laughs. The room was clean and comfortable.

We LOVED our stay here! My friend and I stayed here two nights in a mixed dorm room and the beds were super comfortable, good sized lockers, and the breakfast and coffee were 10/10.

$70 for 3 nights is crazy. The bed is actually big and wide.

I really like this place. The staff are very kind and helpful. Clean and tidy. It is close to the Shinkansen station. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at Seaside Hostel Lighthouse! It’s a family-owned place run by a lovely couple, and their kindness really made our visit special.

We stayed in a twin room, it was very clean and very nice and had complementary water. The owners are extremely kind and provided us with medicine and drinks when we let slip we were sick.

Clean and tidy cosy place. The mattress was on tatami mat flooring — quite comfortable. The room was warm. They have a nice common area and a kitchen with free tea and coffee.

Best hostel I've stayed at in Japan. I was in a private room with tatami floors and a futon which was a lot of fun. They have a well-equipped kitchen and are close to grocery stores and restaurants.

Great for providing a bed at a great price. Bed was comfortable. Only thing needed is a better fan in the bed itself to keep it cooler. Started to get hot.

I stayed for 2 nights, for 2k yen per night. Value for money. Nice facilities, quiet rooms, receptionist very nice and welcoming.
Location is great, just 10 min walk to the atomic bomb dome.

Very clean space and kind staff.

Incredibly clean and comfortable hostel. Staff was very hospitable and friendly. Great AC, beds were comfortable, clean showers with great water pressure.

Incredible value for money. Staff are very young and trendy, personable and helpful. A 4 person room (212) seemed recently renovated and was wonderful.

The location is absolutely fantastic — just seconds away from the historic center and all the main sights: the canal, the Ohara Museum, countless cafés and shops, and more.

Excellent host in a beautiful home! My partner and I stayed for only one night in mid-October, 2025, after completing the Shimanami Kaido.

A charming house located close to the train station, aeon, and onomichi hondori. There are also a lot of good restaurants and cafes nearby!

Great location when visiting the Akiyoshido caves or exploring the region! I slept on a futon-bed. As a tall, heavy man I am not a fan of Futon-beds.

I stayed at TRIP BASE COCONEEL for a week and really enjoyed my experience there.

The place is super convenient, prob less than 3 min walk from the station. The rooms are clean, even the older units are very comfortable for a stay.

Amazing experience. So grateful Ishi waited for me. I didn’t see the message and got to the hostel after checkin had closed and ishi kindly waited until arrived! Very very grateful! Such a great stay.

Really cool place to stay, it's a 10 min walk from the station! there are "no" buses on the side of the city. The concept of torii-kuguri is really nice and I enjoyed it alot!

Very good place on the seaside.
The receptionists were kind and smiling.
Good location, between a beautiful shrine and the sea, near the fish market.

I stayed in Uzu House for one night and generally loved the place.

7 star care! After I had a medical issue (vertigo attack while cycling) the manager here (I think Yoka?

Excellent for cyclists! Very kind. Very beautiful view.

Very good experience, there are very nice view in day time.

Spent a wonderful night in Cocoreto.
Pleasant environment with gorgeous interior.
Owner is so friendly and helpful.
Try stargazing if the sky is clear.
One of the best travelling experiences.

A perfect guest-House, Beautiful and quiet place, friendly and helpful staff, And it's very easy to reach. Probably one of the best places on our tour in Japan, highly recommended.

I am staying for 3 nights.
Overall the staff are nice and welcoming and the atmosphere is fine.
The curtain thing is a bit of an issue since it does not cover the sight into the bed.

Stayed 5 Nights: 7-12/11/2025.
Despite you have to make your own bed, it is generally clean and I didn't experience any discomfort during my stay.

Guesthouse Santiago was a fun stay, moreso due to coincidences then any particular action by staff. The hostel was not expensive and I feel like I got great value for money.

Staff are super friendly and helpful. They offer bag drop for before check in and check out. Beds are comfortable, theres a kitchen and clean showers and bathrooms.

I didn't stay here but was invited to a concert. The owner was so kind to let us in for free.

Perfect choice for an affordable and clean Hostel near the main attraction. The atmosphere was very relaxed and the staff friendly, approachable and uncomplicated.

The Hostel was as the hostels should be.
There were a place for communication, a kitchen with all needed facilities. The dorms was quiet and clean.
