Homestays in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan

Great place to stay. Not far from main attractions. Two stops away in a train. Main host is friendly and speaks English. He was very helpful with recommendations as well. The place was super clean.

Title: A heartwarming, authentic Japanese home experience! Review:Although this guesthouse is a bit remote from the Sumoto Bus Center, the experience was absolutely worth it. The owner is an 84-year-old lady who provided us with incredible service. Even though she has some trouble walking, her passion for hosting is truly touching. The room was extremely large for two people—very comfortable. Unlike some other hotels, all amenities like toothbrushes, toothpaste, and towels were provided. What surprised us most was her generosity; she kindly offered us a free dinner even though we hadn't ordered a meal plan. Despite the language barrier, we communicated easily using Google Translate. She insisted on cleaning the room and changing the sheets (bed covers) every single day. We tried to tell her she didn't need to go to such trouble for us, but she insisted. It really felt like staying in a warm Japanese home. Highly recommended if you want genuine hospitality!

This was the kids' favorite hotel during our 15-day trip to Japan. The mountain scenery is beautiful, it's very quiet, and the air is fresh. We had a lot of fun making a fire, cooking, and having a BBQ together. The house is well-maintained, clean, refreshing, and warm enough. The staff are all very friendly and always provide timely assistance. The hotel's paid shuttle service can take you to some nearby attractions, which is also very convenient.

It's close to Himeji Castle, with supermarket nearby. The facility is clean. The staff recommended walking around Himeji Castle during the night time, it was really nice and beautiful. Staffs are not always around, even drop luggage before check in should be done after 10am, so be aware of check in and check out time.

The homestay is located near Xiwuzi Station. There are many foods around. Just by the sea, you can see the Akashihai Bridge. At night, the bridge is lit with lights, and the waves are heard during the day. The environment is good. The staff is also very good at serving. It is a group of young people who will help with luggage. Very lucky that night, the room was alone, otherwise it might be a bit crowded. The room will have a little taste.

There were many young people and it was noisy at night! Winter is cold 🥶 But we all enjoyed BBQ. There were tableware and so on! I was worried that a lot of hair had fallen. and the floor was off.

Once in a lifetime experience for me and my wife to see the spectacular views from our room both at night and in the morning. Also, the glamping facilties are top notch. Yuna and Yuki guided us step by step on how to prepare our dinner and breakfast. They are kind and we fully enjoy the process. We love the place and the people from Nature Live. Strongly recommended indeed!

My 3 nights stay with my family at Awaji Central Inn Kuruma713 was a good one! The rooms are clean and amenities are adequate. The location is reasonably good since it is within 60 mins drive to most of the attraction places. The only con is that it has only one common toilet and one common bathroom.

For a couple of nights, it's a perfect option! Comfortable beds, larger than single beds. The room was cool, but there was air conditioning. The cafe that gave out instructions for check-in gave coffee to go and all the bath accessories. The room has a small room in traditional Japanese style - with a low table, ottomans, and in the drawers there are two kimonos and baskets to take with all this to the onsen. The location of the hotel is great - a few steps from the golden onsen.

Aside from somebody closing the windows in the evening, making it very hot (not the hostel's fault), it well located and has comfortable beds. Side note: I will never understand why some people are afraid of fresh air when sleeping.
