    Great location if your main purpose is to visit the Himeji Castle, as it’s located 5min walking. The hostel is inside a shopping street market, very convenient to eat out or buy things. The main train and bus station are also close, just 10-15min walking. The bed was comfortable and private, the common areas were ok.

    Travelling through Japan for 3 weeks we will definitely always remember our stay at Shironoshita Guesthouse. Unfortunately we were only staying in Himeji for one night. Tomo-san is a great host, and made sure that we felt at home. If you have questions don't hesitate to ask him. Everything in the guesthouse is very well thought through. If you're looking for a good place to stay in Himeji, this is it.

    Great location in one of the shopping streets between the station and Himeji Castle. The hostel is basically one large room with the female dorms tucked away into a separate corner room. OK amount of amenities provided.

    The location is great! It is a 10 minute walk from Himeji station and very close to local attractions. The room was very cozy, and the showers were private despite it being a shared guesthouse. The owner owns the store under the house and she is super nice, welcoming, and accommodating, such as allowing us to drop off our luggage before check-in and storing our luggage after check-out. There was also an adorable cat! Overall, this house is a very charming place to stay in Himeji and I highly recommend it!
