Toyoko Inn Osaka Hankyu Juso Station Nishi 2 in Osaka

Loved our stay at toyoko inn! We chose a triple room for a comfortable 9 nights here. Staff were friendly and always check/notify us for room cleaning.

Daily free breakfast (until 9am) was a big plus for days with early itineraries as food options are limited to convenience stores in the morning. Everyday was Japanese style breakfast with some tweaks, which was always good and delicious.

Our nightly stop: Lawson & family mart are within 3 mins walk, both with smoking areas and a 7/11 abit further (the viral berry smoothie is available there)

Shower amenities (shampoo, conditioners, body gel) provided were great and lather well. Didn’t use the toothbrushes as we got our own. Razors are good. Toilet paper was very thin, very normal in Japan. Toilet bowl was a teeny small, with smart bidet.
Hot water and water pressure was very stable throughout our stay.
Daily towel changes and make up your bed. They only change the sheets every 4 nights.

Skincare sachets (face wash, toner, light moisturiser, make up cleansing oil) at the lobby was good quality, enjoyed the face wash (doesn’t ***** your face dry). There’s also cotton buds packet individually per bud. Tea sachets.

Pyjamas (provided at the lobby) was a button up dress type, hairdryer works well, make up mirror on the desk.

Clothes rack on the wall was small so couldn’t hang much stuff. A bottle of clothes refresher spray was provided. There’s a small humidifier in our room, which was helpful as the air was dry in march.

I think the rooms are quite sound proof as we didn’t hear any noise.

The triple room was great. We could fully open up all our luggages!! 2 small cabin luggage on the luggage stands and another 2 x 28” check in luggages and a duffel. And still have space to move around. We had our nightly supper at the little sofa and coffee table, while we watch Netflix on the tv. There’s a microwave and a medium size fridge/freezer in the room too.

There is 2 air conditioners in the room, heat / cold mode available.

The downside was the beds are hard like other reviewers mentioned and the pillows don’t provide much support. But after the full day out and about, honestly you’d just fall asleep anyways.
Surprisingly the bed length was able to accommodate my 1.9m husband. He’s just happy to not have his feet dangle in the air lol.

There are 3 washers and 2 dryers available. Prepare some 100yen or change with the front desk. Laundry powder available for a small fee, iirc 30 yen. Washers are clean. Dryers run in 10min intervals and they dry well. We did our laundry very late at night twice, machines were available both times. Would suggest to bring a laundry bag along.

Free coffee machine 24/7 in the lobby, while you wait for laundry. Or grab a beverage or beer from the vending machines in the lobby.

We came during mid march so our daily walk to and fro Juso station was quite comfortable in the cool/cold weather, the distance didn’t bother us.

We are usually back at Juso station around 11pm-12am and there will be touts outside the west exit. I think they’re respectful towards couples as they didn’t approach us at all. Only when they spotted my husband standing alone outside while I was getting something in the convenience store.

I would say this location is better than the other toyoko inn that’s nearer to Juso station as that hotel is located at the end of the bar/club street. There’s more touts there and along the street towards the hotel, unless you choose a slightly further route.

Although this toyoko inn is further and has a few love hotels around it, we didn’t encounter a single tout during our 9 nights at this area. There are residential apartments around the hotel too, it was very peaceful at night.

Another downside is because Ubers are expensive late at night, we can’t stay late at the main Osaka areas to drink/party and have to leave around 11.30pm in order to catch the last few trains back to Juso. Upside is almost everyday I get to h

This hotel truly lives up to its reputation as Japan's top choice. The front desk staff are incredibly warm and attentive. Housekeeping replaces toiletries daily, and the room facilities are excellent. It's conveniently located, and they offer a free, abundant, and well-balanced breakfast. Plus, there's complimentary freshly ground coffee available all day. I stayed for four days this time and will definitely book this hotel again on my next trip to Osaka. I also heartily recommend it to all my travel-loving friends!

The room is good, functional, spacious enough and very clean. The breakfast was a very good surprise! Tasty and different every day. The service was amazing. However the location is not the most convenient for a short trip (no direct line to main attractions or the train station).

The room itself is well maintained and the facilities are common basic ones that I need as a solo female traveler. It a 5 minute walk to Juso Station and a lot of convenience store around. They have a coin laundry machine as well so it was easier to wash clothes when I needed it. All additional things that you need such as toiletries are also readily available at the lobby area. And the best part was the free breakfast!

It's very good business like hotel very clean very organized and not far from the station and Lawson in the corner the area is nice and clean and couple of shopping open markets around plus the staff are very nice

Great value for money, and the surrounding transportation options met my needs perfectly. The hotel staff were quite friendly and efficient. The only minor issue was that breakfast time got a bit crowded, but everyone worked quickly. Overall, I was satisfied with my stay.

Coming from Kansai Airport, you do have to transfer a few times on the subway. However, the hotel is very close to Juso Station, about a 6-7 minute walk. Juso Station has a food street, so dining is super convenient! It's not crowded around at night, so sleeping is very, very quiet! There's a convenience store at the intersection, and Don Quijote is just across the main road! There's also Daikoku Drugstore nearby! Although breakfast is simple, it changes a bit every day, which shows a lot of thought. You'll definitely be full and satisfied! The lobby also has vending machines with beer, drinks, and ice cream! All your normal needs can be met here! Personally, I think even though the location is a little out of the way, it makes up for it in value for money, and transferring subways is still very convenient~

The room was very spacious and spotlessly clean, with all the necessary amenities. The location is great, with a subway station nearby. It's just one stop to the Umeda shopping district, making it convenient to get anywhere. There are also convenience stores and many restaurants in the vicinity.

Hotel located at Juso station which is 5 mins walk from station. This area is local area and it is only one station to Umeda. The room price is reasonable price and lower than other area. Room is huge for solo traveler. I would recomend this place to stay in Osaka.

Worth every cents, as business hotel, including breakfast, the room is nice and clean. Come with everything I needed.
