Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Very well organised and clean accommodation. The signs written everywhere are very helpful and not annoying. Plus I loved the Kumamon in the toilet 😍 The owner gave me a lot of info on arrival. There is safe storage with lockers in a separate shed for early arrivals and late departures. Very useful! You can buy cup ramen for 100 yen. An easy walk from the station and to some good restaurants. Comfy beds.

    Very clean and comfortable hostel in a great location. The shared kitchen space was lovely, and the rooms were quiet and cosy.

    The staff is friendly and helpful to answer all the questions you might have. The location is near the train stations, which is easy to take the public transportation. The common area is where you can meet and chat other travelers and share your stories with each others. You can also put your luggages into the safe place even after checking out.

    The hotel is in the golf resort, located near the west Aso mountain. It is about 10 min driving distance from the downtown train station and 30 min from the Aso summit. Great location if you want to seek a quiet and peaceful experience in winter. Bath hall is at the separate building, the hot spring is definitely a must-visit. Breakfast and dinner buffet are nice. A little pricy but worthwhile.

    it was a very quaint but spacious hostel with great and ample facilities. Easy luggage storage, not far from anywhere (train station, onsen, Lawson) staff were great too and so was the kitchen with complimentary spices, cooking oil and tea. even had a cheaper ticket to the (also exceptional) onsen

    The youth hostel is perfectly located near Aso JR station, the bus centre, a nice onsen, a lovely salon, and a restaurant which offers great food at a reasonable price. All of the facilities can be accessed within 3 minutes by walking. Cuddly Dominion where you can enjoy a helicopter ride is just 15 minutes walking distance from the hostel. I recommend this lovely hostel to everyone who wants to explore Aso and Kurosawa Onsens

    Exceptionally clean hostel with great staff and respectful guests. The kitchen is in great condition and has all the supplies you need. Particularly enjoyed the kotatsu table with shelves upon shelves of Manga. The mixed dorm was good size and felt safe. There’s the train station, Toyota rentacar, a lawson and great Onsen across the road.
