  • Each month shows what places asked on the days in its Read column; a month already past was read before its nights, so months read at different times are compared as read.

A month's figure is the median of its nightly medians, and a night's the median asking price for one night. A month is listed once it has at least 15 measured nights, each with at least 30 places showing a price.

Medians per night. The whole market pools every price both halves showed that night; a night counts only when both were read, and a month only with enough such nights.

Places with no price, by month

Across the 3 months measured in Kobe, the median night had from 4% to 5% of checked places showing no price (sold out or closed).

Counted place by place: a checked place with no price that night is sold out or closed. A month already past shows what had no price when it was read.

Event nights, by month

Months with published events in Kobe: 2 of the 3 measured (events in all: 3); the highest night against comparable nights was 1 January 2027 (New Year's Day), +37%.
