Find Guest Houses in Osaka, Japan

Best hostel I stayed at in Japan! Super clean, new and well equipped kitchen (olive oil, salt and pepper provided), capsules beautifully designed (each has window, vent, blinds), shower room is great, great atmosphere (very social), staff is very hospitable and relaxed. It is also in a very cheap area of town where you can find cheap food and booze easily. 100yen beer in vending machines out front. Book it now!

Had a wonderful time at Peace House Suzunami over the Christmas period. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There was a spacious common room (for Japan standards) with good cooking facilities and there was a very friendly and welcoming vibe. The rooms were a little small though. With the check in time of 6pm being a bit confusing and a little later than anywhere else I've stayed. Altogether my stay was fantastic, if you're after a nice place, full of cool and friendly people, then this is for you. If you're just looking to stay in your room and not socialise then this might not be for you.

valuable place with a great hospitality from the owner. If you came before 15.00, you'll meet another lady that can't speak english well but still be very helpful (thanks to the translator apps). We can put our luggages before check in. But the owner speaks fluent english. She explained very well about the facilities. We stayed at Gate80 for 2 nights. It's near the tsurugaoka station (only 2 minutes walk! and there's a mini market at the station.) and about 5 minutes walk to nishitanabe station (but make sure you know which station you need to enter. Different direction will need diferent entrance. To Namba, you should walk accross the street first.) The shower room and toilet in Gate80 is very clean. In the ladies shower room there are 4 shower room. They also have a hairdryer. We stayed at the double bed at the mix dormitory. We found it still comfortable for 2 people. The storage corner is kinda small, but we manage to safe what we need in our locker (so we won't need to open our luggage very often). We'll surely come back to stay at gate80 if we come to Osaka again (and we really hope soon).

The location was good and it was near to all the clubs downstairs. Nearby Shinsaibashi shopping street too. Checked in at 11pm and was ushered into my beds promptly. Was given a key to my personal lockers to house my important valuables. There was a common area to house our luggage and the sleeping area was quiet and peaceful. There was a foldable table in the cubicle, coupled with a ceiling lamp and charging port. Very comfortable blankets and beds. I slept way through my alarm and it was a great and nice experience. Female toilets were clean and spacious with 3 showers and 5 WC. However, i wasn't informed via Agoda that shower towels and toothbrush are payable. Location was hard to find initially as it was tucked inside one of the lanes and signs werent that obvious. .

The location is very good. The hotel is located at 3rd floor while the subway station is just at the same spot, take a lift to underground and it will do. Got few restaurants nearby. The hotel is very new & clean. The staff, Ryota is very helpful. 1 bad thing is just whole floor consists of beds & rooms w/o partition wall, so if there is someone who is noisy the whole floor could heard it, but depend on who you met though. Will come visit here if vacation at Osaka again.

Had a great time staying there. (4 Nights) The Place is clean and everything works. The bed was very comfortable and even though I was sleeping in huge dorm room I had no problem falling asleep or felt that there is nor enough space. The owner is pretty cool guy and gives the hole place a more friendly and welcoming experience. We talked about different things in the area, he taught me some Japanese and even bought me new Breakfast after my first one burned! Only negative things are that it’s not the most social place to meet other travelers, everything is very private even though you are staying in big dorm. All in all a good place to visit when staying in Osaka!

It was a nice choice for my schedule. I stayed in Osaka for a night after landing, this place is close to a station where I can take a Kintesu train to Nara - just within 5 min walking. Varied kinds of restaurants are around the area, you can still find food at late night (less choices after 11pm). The accommodation overall is worth it, clean and well equipped, room was not crowded, bedding was not bad. But do try to take care of your own belongings, I found some of my money missing after leaving there...

This guesthouse is a perfect place to enjoy your stay in Osaka. And to have a good rest after a long and hot day outside. The location is in a quiet district in city center, but surrounded with all the necessary (local supermarket, 100 yens shop, plenty of small restaurants, and even a theater). You can easily reach most of the tourist spots by walking or using the nearby subway. The guesthouse isn’t a big « factory » for tourits, but more like a family house. The boss is very kind and helpful, and always ready to help you. And the students who help him to manage this place are soooo lovely. I have planned to stay here 4 days. Finally, I lived there 2 weeks. I’m looking forward my next stay in Osaka.... and in the Osaka Gueshouse Gloire.

It was my first solo trip and first visit to Japan and I've already missed it! Staffs are very lovely and helpful! The first day I emailed due to unexpected flight delay, they let me delay check in time one hour later. There was a morning that I had bad mood (from last night's lost way and stomach problem). Tried to ask a staff about ramen casually with my poor Japanese, but I might turned out to be rude, she answered patiently and I forgot to say the greetings as when Japanese people going out, even a bye. Yet they still did. I felt bad and heart-warmed at the same time (Thank you, Ichiran ramen was awesome!), couldn't stay long but I imagine you'd have a wonderful day in Osaka just hanging out with them alone. Also they'd silently change your towels like ninja and clean the shower few times a day, so you can't really blame them if still seeing something you don't like. In terms of facilities, it's an open space for many beds in entirely floor (I usually come back very late, so if you see bad reviews about noise around sep. 14-18, that'd prob. be me :/), there are curtains as doors which you can hear people whispering or outside door sounds. I suggest guesthouse could sell ear plugs or bring your own. I stayed at 2nd floor and there was a long desk with chairs, water heater next to the beds, but you'll have to fill the water at 1st floor which opened until 10 pm. Tho there are many vending machines outside 24hr. or shower water which I drank (shower room is awesome!). There's also a washing/drying machine. 3rd floor has a balcony for smoking area (I didn't go up there so don't really know about it or 1st floor room). The interior is beautiful overall. Wish the staffs and guesthouse all the best and I'd definitely love to stay there again!

Nice and welcoming staff. Laid-back and relaxed feeling. Just 10-min walk (1 subway station) from Namba/Dotonbori, not very far, and it's also convenient to go to other parts of Osaka. Got a good kitchen, but need to take the food downstairs to eat, a bit dangerous when holding hot stuff? The lower deck of the bunker bed also has little headroom for talk guys. Still it's a good guesthouse if you're not super-picky, recommended.

Free breakfast (coffee/tea with toast), central location. Ryu offers great advice to your Osaka stay along with a great bar offering and food menu at his bar. He is quite the chef and entertainer. He built this hostel himself, so everything is well made. He is always helpful and available to provide the best experience in Osaka and Japan. The building is a little narrow and with 4 floors. No elevators. But two washrooms and two showers for 10 visitors. Good kitchen and plenty of storage room. I’ve stayed for a week, my longest stay in any city in Japan. I would definitely come back and stay here. Bath house, grocery store near by along with bath house. Multiple subways and restaurants/ shopping near by. Great place for the location/value.

+ve Points Cleanliness: The building is pretty new, so you can expect clean facilities from the bedrooms to the showers to the lounge area. The staff vacuum and clean the area daily. Location: I did not know how great the location was until i checked in. It is a 10 mins walk to Amerikamura and Dotonbori for shopping! Also this location is superb if you have a JR pass as there is JR Namba station 5 minutes walk away. The local metro Sakuragawa is less than a 1 minute away on foot. Very convenient with eateries and family marts/lawson/7-11 splattered all around the guesthouse. Facilities: As mentioned earlier, facilities are still new. Lounge looks beautiful and cozy. Showers are shared. Bedrooms are big enough even though i booked a 12 bed dorm, it still felt as though i had enough personal space. Wifi in room and lounge area. Washer available for 100 yen. Theres a lift so you dont need to drag your luggage up and down the stairs. There are small lockers but please bring your own lock. Staff: The staff were amazing. Really super friendly and miss them so much when i left. Pang + Koh + Chise were very fun and warm and friendly. They would usually join the guests during dinner time and talk to us. Pang even cooked taki for us one night. Bianca is also very friendly and helped me with some recommendations for where to go. Thank you for the awesome stay! MISS YOU GUYS! FINAL THOUGHTS: This is definitely not the cheapest guesthouse especially considering its 12 beds shared dormitories. But i would say definitely the best guesthouse in terms of location cleanliness and staff. I had a wonderful experience and would not mind forking that bit extra for an enjoyable stay.

Very close to the station, supermarket 15 meters around the corner and close to the shopping centre. Upon arrivel immediately warmly received by the manager. They even took me to a nice restaurant to get a feel for Osaka. Such nice people! They speak English quite well, and take their time listening to questions and answering them. The guest house has a nice homely feel to it and is clean. 2 showers, which work fine. Able to rent a bike for only 100 Yen! Amazing. Had a very nice stay here. Dont forget to check out the bar from the owner. Lively place and good stuff. Easy to meet nice people there! Even extended my stay here, which is rare.

共用スペースの広さは最低限ですが、タオルをはじめ無料アメニティが充実しています。 1000円のディナープレートはお肉もボリュームがあって野菜も摂れて、美味しかったのでおすすめです♪♪ドリンク付きでお酒も選べました。 機会があれば再訪したいです。 Shared space was not so roomy but clean and comfortable. And ¥1000 dinner plate only for guests, I highly recommend it! It has chicken or pork with salad and bread, I really liked all of them. And what’s more, it includes a drink, you can choose beer!

Walking distance to Takashimaya mall, Nankai train(to airport) , kuromon market, Nishishinsaibashi, Dotonbori, really good location. Room quite spacious, 10beds, 2 toilets and 1 shower in the room. Wifi connection is good. You can leave your baggage in the guest house before/ after check in/out, FOC. Cons - roomate used hair dryer in the morning, it's very disturbing! Staff speak limited English. And, the guest house has no evelator.

Although it’s a guess house, it offers what we needed for the stay of the holiday. It’s cheap to stay and have clean rooms, and air conditioning inside. It’s basically 4 bunk beds in a room, which is all we needed for which we only sleep during night time and the rest of the day we travelled around Osaka, to Kyoto and Nara. It’s around 8 minutes walking to the nearest subway and also it’s close to convenient store. Staff is nice and friendly. Definitely worth every penny for what you get. We saved money with the accommodation and can spend it on food and shopping.

It was nice facilities for a very low price. Towel and shower amenities are given. There is wifi and tv in the lounge and everything was clean. The beds are hard and the bottom bunk feels a bit tight and doesn't get much air compared to the top bunk. Be warned they do not turn the lights off at night but each bed is closed off with a screen. Also you must pay for lockers but they'll do free bag storage at the desk during the day. It is far away from everything including stores and the train station. They do have a free shuttle to take you to the station but I do not know if pick up is available. I went to summer sonic music festival at maishima sports island so it was a great location (30 min walk over the bridge). I enjoyed my stay but if you do not have business in the area I wouldn't recommend it.

Wonderful wonderful guesthouse! Shinya, Barbie and Kiyo are the bomb! Etsy is spot on in reinforcing guesthouse policies and good at what she does. Special shoutout to Kiyo for immediately taking action when I told him I was freezing in the room haha! All of them plus one lady who’s not on the wall are super good conversationalists in english, chill and warm. Free breakfast is cool, lots of proactive helpful information throughout the walls and desks and shelves that guests need. Beds are comfy! The establishment felt pro, clean, safe and well-thought. Amount of toilets and showers are just right and the laundry units are good, too. totally returning with other family when we return next year and recommending to friends. Suggestions: give the option to check in early with reasonable fee for tired travelers, and have one or two other varieties for breakfast. Thank you Osaka Guesthouse, excellent job! Loved it there!

We checked-in late in the evening coming from Tokyo/Mt. Fuji. We were attended by the receptionist without any delays and explained to us right away the house rules. There are 2 elevators so no worries for your heavy luggages! The room was really quaint and has good ambiance. We had a good time in experiencing 'Japanese-style' room with this accommodation. The Free Breakfast included was more than enough to fill us up in the morning. Unlimited drinks were also served throughout the day. There is also a Japanese Foot Bath which was relaxing after long walks from the tours of the day. Overall, I would recommend it and will definitely book again if I would be in Osaka in the future!

All the lovely staff at hostel Miyabi made my first solo and hostel experience one to remember. Facilities were exceptionally clean and accessible, staff were friendly and knoeledgable about Osaka's Culinary anf Tourist attractions, giving their own take on what they believed to be the best. Tak and Yuya went above and beyond consistently to ensure that each guest felt welcomed and included in the Hostel community. Fast internet was available throughout the hostel, with the only drawback being that there was currently no wifi on the roof. Without a doubt that i will recommend it to friends and return to stay there when i return to Osaka.

Location is the selling feature of Stay Osaka. It is in a relatively quiet street only a few minutes away from the hustle and bustle of Osaka tourism. The staff are also very helpful with good/enough English communication skills. The facilities are limited considering the daily rate but good enough to make my stay worry-free. I rated 4-star for cleanliness considering the daily rate and type of accommodation. It is understandable that the hostel cannot change the linen daily nor wash the comforter frequently.

Our flight was a bit late so we were worried if we arrived later after check in time. We've emailed them a couple of times but there were no replies. As expected we arrived after check jn time (at 11pm bcs of flight delays and stuff) and we couldnt check in. When we arrived around 12am, there were a piece of paper sticked on the door saying that we should check in the day after at 10am.... im pretty sure the notice was there purposely for us bcs there wasnt any notice the night after and so on. Honestly, they could have replied our email so that we could get ready to sleep somewhere else first. Thank god there was another guest house near shinsaibashi that accepted check ins late at night (booked for the night through booking.com). Checked in in the morning as per said. We got a huge room with four bed, the room was very spacious. The toilets were clean too. The bed was a little but uncomfortable because it was already very thin (needs new mattress). Location is very near to two subways so that was easy for us to go to town and other train stations. Check out was also easy. Internet in japan is great. But the room needs fresh air, i kept on sneezing everytime i came back to the guest house (i am very sensitive to dust) Overall everyrhing is fine except my experience with their check in (please reply to people emails)

i missed my osaka flight and only got to the hostel near midnight which was past the opening hours of the reception but was still greeted warmly by the staff (who was informed in advance by airport of my delay). check-in was quick and staff even helped to carry my luggage up to the room. the room had two bunk beds (with lower bed on tatami) and the futons were very comfortable. toilets, showers and cleaning area were very clean as well. kitchen was well stocked. the hostel is located at the start of the tenjinbashi street district so food is readily available. overall a very pleasant stay and would return again when i do my solo travelling!

I only stayed one night on Feb 13th. Before then, I stayed in Namba for 4 nights but there was nobody who could speak English fluently like the staff here. I lost LG phone battery in Family Mart which is two-story building on the way to Himeji station from Himeji castle at around 1p.m. on Feb 11th. Battery was 25bucks and I just bought the extra battery before heading to Japan from Korea. The staff tried to help me out by calling those places where I might lose. It was interesting to me because Japanese wasn't flexible about way if thinking. That's what I heard from Japanese professor who taught me as well. He was kind anyway. I appreiciate it. So guess what? I am going to Osaka again on April 18th and will be staying (with my cute niece who is 12) this place for 3 or 4nights. Thank you for everything. You guys should book this place. Very comfortable(around this place there are 5 Family Marts), neat, cosy, and very clean. First of all, it' newly built. There are towels prepared in each shower room. I think this place is number 1 among guest houses all over the world. I gurantee 100%. This is very close to subway station but unfortunately I dunno what exit. See you~

I've stayed at Hotel Wasabi Osaka Bed and Breakfast for a couple of days. It was my first time to travel in Osaka. First I have hesitation in staying in a guesthouse with so many guests around with different culture. The location was exceptional its so near the station and shopping malls. The guest house is clean/tidy and the staff are friendly and accommodating as well. The Library area is so cool, you can have coffee or tea while reading. I definitely stay in the same place in the future. Please continue the good service.....
