About

BENCH offers a stay that makes you feel like Kamakura locals.
There is an originally designed bench at the entrance porch facing Onari Shopping Street.
It is a place for rest, hanging out, and communicating not only for our guests but it is open for locals.
We are located in the city center near the station surrounded by many restaurants, a 4-minute walk from Kamakura Station West Exit.
The beach is 15 minutes away and Kamakura Hachimangu Shrine is 7 minutes by foot.
Our location is a great hub for you to leisurely enjoy sightseeing and vacation activities.
There are 4 private rooms with a warehouse-like minimalistic design and a dormitory for 6 people.
Private rooms have a large desk for you to concentrate on work or study.
We also offer breakfast at our sister store Wander Kitchen and bicycle rental.
Whether you’re traveling solo, with a partner, family, or a group, our guesthouse is perfect for you!

Enjoyed staying here, but be aware that the dorm is basically in the hall/entrance area and not in a proper room and that there's no kitchen.

I was told the laundry would stop at 9:00 PM so people could get some sleep, but it ran until 10:15 PM. I asked them to please turn it off, but they didn’t listen. The laundry machines are in the same “room” as the dormitory, so the sound was crazy loud and made it impossible to sleep for quite a while.
