Hostels in Shizuoka Prefecture

I had a wonderful stay at this hostel and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. Machiko, the owner, is such a kind, warm, and lovely person. I arrived later than expected, but she patiently waited for me to arrive, which I really appreciated after a long day of travelling. The location is incredibly peaceful and quiet. It was one of the best nights of sleep I had during my trip to Japan, and it was the perfect place to relax and unwind. I only stayed for one night, but...

Wonderful staff, amazing onsen, lovely food. Everyone working here is so kind and helpful.

Very spacious rooms, the bunker beds are awesome. My son loved it, the food in the cafe is very nice. The onsen bath was so relaxing. There are free popsicles and soda bottles and colors for kids which is very thoughtful. The bus station is right next to the hotel.

I stayed at 5 different accommodations during my visit to Japan, and Ryokan Plum was by far my favourite - it was a shame that I could only stay for one night! I stayed in the traditional tatami room, which exceeded all of my expectations. It was beautiful! The host (I forget her name) who greeted me upon my arrival was very kind and welcoming. I would highly recommend Ryokan Plum to anyone visiting the Hakone/Odawara area.

Lovely little hostel with great amenities including bike hire, fishing equipment, tent hire. Location was ideal, very close to the station and Honcho Street.

I had a great one night stay here. The staff are very welcoming and clearly enjoy working there and interacting with guests. The room is exactly as described, and it was very dark at night too. The walls are very thin and sound travels easily especially from the room below, so it’s better to think of it as a dorm rather than a completely separate room. I couldn’t join the Irori dinner as I arrived too late, but it was starting just as I was arriving, and it looked like a cosy experience...

Staff, room and environment were excellent. There was access to free WiFi, and space to eat the included breakfast as well as any food or drink you prepared for yourself. The food for breakfast was varied, both hot and cold, with coffee, tea or a range of juices or water. There are two public baths for male and female users. Great range of bikes to hire including electric ones. The shower was AMAZING! We wanted to stay for longer and will definitely return.

The view was amazing!

Best hostel I've stayed at by far. Better than many hotels as well. I had a few issues with the WiFi and that's my only minor complaint

Nice hostel, comfy bed, friendly staff, good facilities, they also offer rental bike!

Good value stay hosts were wonderful and helpful.

Highly recommend this hostel for anyone staying around the Fuji area! As soon as I arrived, I was welcomed by the friendly staff, who all spoke English. I was shown a tour of the hostel which was helpful and got to choose which bed to stay in (tip - don't sleep next to the dehumidifier, it's got a constant hum, the hostel is not to blame for this!). Michael was very helpful when providing info and tips about climbing Mount Fuji, without his guidance I wouldn't have been able to climb. Nice and...

Very welcoming, made a pleasant stay in Kamakura
