I used it on a family trip to Tochigi! |The first floor was a garage-like space where CDs, accessories, books, etc. were sold. …

- really warm and friendly atmosphere.- designed with heart and industrial chic.- we stayed in the room with 4 beds. it has a nice and clean japanese bath.- Hosts were awesome. Cooked a comfy Malaysian bakuteh for breakfast- was super responsive in helping with recommendations.- Kanuma is a nice small city/town to walk around.- It does look like the town has seen better days as many shops look empty. But the folks at Center Kanuma are here to create a new "Center" or atmosphere for visitors discovering this place.- I believe you will be surprised and rewarded if you're looking for something away from the hustle and bustle of Tokyo. And enjoy quiet walks in a small town.- We enjoyed:1) The post office - had cute cards that you could mail around the world.2) Keyhole - nice coffee place that has just open.3) Yakitori place one street down to the right - Really awesome friendly vibe there. they have good Oyako Don and a wide selection of sticks and homemade alcohol.4) Snow Peak Kanuma - What a treat. a fancy modern Onsen at 700yen/person, in the forest. a 15 min drive from Center.5) Senjusan Park - This simple amusement park is something out of a Koreeda movie. Almost empty on a weekday. 50 yen per ride on the train that shows you a view of the city. really special.

I used to visit for music/screening events and autumn festivals that are held regularly on the first floor, but this was my first time staying overnight.First, we received a detailed explanation about our accommodation from the deputy director of the center, and then headed to the second floor, where our rooms were located.I stayed in private room A.This time we stayed with two people, but it's spacious and has a private bath/toilet/bunk bed, so I think even a family would be satisfied.For dinner, we went to Zuzu Ginza, which is a 1 minute walk away.I had Kanuma's specialty chive soba.It was a great experience to leave the hostel and go to the same restaurant along Ginza Street to get some food.There are several other shops within walking distance.Although it is a bath, it is not a typical unit bath, but a built-in bath. I took my time and enjoyed the bath in a compact yet open-feeling bath.Deputy Sen-san told me that the plum trees that can be seen from the window are beautiful this season, and I took a bath in the morning.The morning sun and refreshing breeze come in, and the plum blossoms are also very beautiful.It was a lovely morning.And then there was the bak kut teh breakfast that I was looking forward to.I had it at the kotatsu seat on the first floor.The meat is tender and the soup is deep and warms the body, making it a typical Malaysian medicinal dish. It's really delicious!They serve not only breakfast but also lunch, so I will come back again.This is a spot in Kanuma that you won't hesitate to recommend to your friends.

I stayed one night in a room with a bathroom and toilet.It was a space where you could maintain your privacy with little contact with other guests. I think this hostel is suitable for families and friends who are used to traveling.The walls of the dressing room are made from hemp, an industrial product from the local Kanuma area, which conveys the craftsman's commitment to the craftsmanship and the importance they place on local industry. The space, including the first floor, has a very good taste and is a mix of DIY and art, which is rare in hostels.I would like to stay again.

We stayed here during our Nikko trip! The host is super friendly! He made good local dinner recommendations and speaks decent English. He and his wife are young artists and run this hostel. The interior design is outstanding. I‘d describe it as fancy industrial. They also exhibit and partially sell their own art & merch. There is even a kitchenette with fridge, stove etc. Also the price is a steal and includes the free use of a towel. Highly recommend staying!
