Kobe has a growing choice of coworking spaces for freelancers, remote workers, entrepreneurs, and business travelers. Many are concentrated around Sannomiya, the city’s main transport and commercial hub, although you’ll also find options around Kobe Station and the historic Former Foreign Settlement. Facilities range from casual drop-in desks to private offices and community-focused business hubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Conveniently located on the 15th floor of the Kobe Sannomiya Hankyu Building, ANCHOR KOBE is directly connected to Hankyu Kobe-Sannomiya Station and around two minutes’ walk from JR Sannomiya Station.
