The location is great when arriving from Hiroshima station. Just a quick 5 minute walk and your there. The staff that greeted me were very happy & friendly. I was given more information on how to get around Hiroshima which was very useful. After a long day of sightseeing I came back and relaxed in the lounge area. This was... More

Friends and I stayed at k's- what a fantastic introduction to traditional Japanese style accommodation. We loved our room! Very clean and the most comfortable blankets and pillows. The hostel is in an excellent location, close to the train and tram! All the staff were so friendly and helpful! We wouldn't hesitate in staying there again.

Easy place to stay and quite reasonable priced. We walked or tram to the town and the main sights. We stayed in the Japanese-style tatami room which was lovely. Staff at hostel very friendly with good English and advice. Shared bathrooms were clean. Would stay again.

Great location, friendly and helpful staff and affordable. But K's house Hiroshima was not the cleanest hostel compared to the other hostels I stayed at during my trip in Japan. But it might be because there were many people staying there, since K's House is quite popular among travellers.

Very good location to the main train station. Just about 10 minutes of walking distance to the train station. But you should check the map before, as this ho(s)tel is a bit in a backstreet and if you are not fluent in Japanese language, it might be a bit problem to ask locals. The rooms are very, very clean and... More

This was the first place I stayed in Japan, and probably the best! I stayed in a private room with an ensuite and was very happy. I had a double bed, my own bathroom (which looks like a caravan bathroom stuck in a room, but that seems to be the theme in Japan), a tv, an air conditioner and it... More

This is probably one of the cleanest hostels I've ever stayed in! The beds are comfortable, the staff are lovely, there are cool common areas to hang out in and a kitchen you can use. It's a short walk from Hiroshima station and just around the corner from a 7-11 and tram stop so it's very convenient.

I was here in Feburary 2013 and stayed in a traditional Japanese room (Ryokan). The place was very clean and the experience was fantastic. We had to roll our beds out into the room and put the sheets on but that was all part of the fun and experience. The communal showers and toilets were very clean and we didn't... More

Clean and good location in Hiroshima - we were pleased that there was an elevator to upstairs rooms, unlike other hostels which have you lugging your luggage up flights of stairs. The place has good heating/AC systems, and staff are very friendly and helpful. We stayed in a private Japanese room for 4 adults, which was not palatial but very... More
