Hostels in Osaka Prefecture, Japan

It's a good location for travellers looking to explore Osaka. It's close to Osaka Castle and the local underground lines while remaining within a reasonable distance of the city's main downtown district. It has all the needed amenities, fully furnished kitchen equipped with a stove, microwave, and all necessary cutlery, and coin operated laundry. While the dormitories are simple and functional rather than luxurious, they are consistently clean and well-maintained. The sleeping areas are sectioned off to feel private and quiet.

Imano Osaka Shinsaibashi Hostel is a gem for solo travelers. The room was clean and comfortable, just what you need after a full day exploring. Breakfast was a nice surprise—healthy plus unlimited drinks, which is always a win. Location is super convenient, just a short walk to the train station and surrounded by konbinis for quick bites anytime. Everything felt easy and hassle-free here. If you’re traveling alone and want something practical, cozy, and well-located, this place hits the mark.

This hostel was my favorite during this trip, and I only wish I could've stayed longer than two nights! The rooms use a password lock system, which changes regularly. Each room accommodates nine people and has two toilets and one shower, which is a sufficient amount. I didn't take photos inside the room, so I can only share pictures of the surroundings near the hostel. Compared to Namba, Tennoji is much quieter and cleaner, and the transportation is very convenient. It felt like a lot of the guests were long-term residents, and everyone was very well-behaved.

Excellent value for money! Great location 4 min walk from subway station and 2 minutes walk from bus stop. Clean bathroom, toilets and powder room despite its high occupancy during new year eve and long weekend. Friendly English speaking staffs at reception , Breakfast, towels, slippers and safety box with key are provided free. There are face cleansing products and face lotion provided in shower and powder room too. Many k-beauty products are available to try for free on request basis , I tried the collagen machine for free as well. Overall I’d rate it 9.5 over 10. It’d be good if check out time can be extended to 11am and breakfast time to 10.30am.

The locationn is very close to shopping areas such as Namba, Shinsaibashi, and Kuromon Market. There's also a large, inexpensive supermarket nearby, located behind the building. The accommodation is clean, towels, liquid soap, and shampoo are provided. The bed is a good size, not too narrow. My room was on the second floor and had limited space for luggage. There's a corner outside the room with tea and coffee service and a refrigerator, but it's quite cramped. You can buy food and heat it up there. Because the accommodation doesn't have much common space, you need to be mindful of noise levels.

The location seemed great at first, but it's actually not that close to the subway station. The surrounding area is full of food streets, and there isn't a convenient store nearby either. Perhaps because there are too many people staying here, it gets quite noisy in the mornings. I haven't encountered this situation in other capsule hotels.

A great hostel if you can sleep through the noise. U get a free locker for your stay. The lobby is well equipped with a refrigerator, one small stove top, hot water, sponge and soap and so on. The hostel is very close to Dotonbori. The bed is comfortable but because of the people in the room and the train, it was kinda hard to sleep, but u get used to it. All in all for the cheap price it's a great hostel.

The environment is good. If it is a single room, it is also good in a capsule hotel. Please note that if you live in a single room and the bed is on the 2nd floor, the ladder to the bed is a right-angle ladder. Pay attention to your climbing ability. When going down the ladder, the elderly and the weak should pay attention.

I stayed for 5 days in Osaka and I booked a private bedroom with private bath on trip.com, and on the night I checked-in to the hotel I was first assigned to a bedroom that literally had a shower (bath) BUT NO toilet. I had to show the receptionist my booking description which reads “private bathroom” and they switched me to a room it’s the full bathroom with a mini tub. Just take note when you book the room that they do have different type of rooms including one with a shower but no toilet. The new room I was assigned was fine, clea bedding and all, with a small fridge and hairdryer . The location of the hotel is both good and bad, good the good is that it’s in a convenient location to attractions and shopping centers, walking distance to the Osaka Castle and Shinsaibashi, but the bad is that it is right next to a very busy highway, literally right under the bridge. Had I known this I probably would pay a bit more and go with a different hotel. But, if price is your priority and you don’t mind being next to the highway then there isn’t much to complain about. Staff are helpful and the hotel is generally well kept.

The location is fantastic, very close to Nihonbashi Station, and there's a FamilyMart right across the street – super convenient! I stayed in the women-only section and was lucky that there weren't many snorers, so I slept really well. You can rent bath towels, and I even did some laundry. It's shoe-free inside, so bringing disposable slippers was a smart move, especially since the wet areas were a bit damp. The locker with a key is small, but I traveled light, so I was able to store my belongings there before heading out. The fridge was empty, so I had no problem putting my drinks in. I also appreciated being able to use the tea and water dispenser in the common area with my tumbler. Getting plain miso soup was a nice bonus too! The Wi-Fi connection was perfect, and I was grateful that I could borrow an umbrella on rainy days. I'd definitely like to stay here again!
