Hostels in Osaka

This one just beats all my other stays in Japan, it was seriously that good. The location is near Umeda Station, a super quick three-minute walk, and it was so easy to find amazing local cuisine nearby. The public bath is the absolute MVP here. I was totally not expecting someone with a tattoo on the back like me to be allowed in, but it was fine. My Japanese friend even said, "Your public bath is...

Very good! The facilities are new and the location is excellent, perfect for solo travelers. It's really nice; the room is spacious and it's located right on a commercial street with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby, which is super convenient!

The mattress wasn't very comfortable, and the poor soundproofing made it quite noisy, which affected my sleep.

Great location, excellent value for money, perfect for solo travelers.

This hotel absolutely exceeded my expectations; it's almost on par with a five-star hotel. I've stayed in many capsule hotels, and this one is the best. The large public bath has everything you could possibly need, they even provide swim trunks! Razors, toothbrushes, hand towels, bath towels, pumice stones, exfoliating mitts, and multiple types of facial cleansers – they have it all. Can you believe...

Oo troublesome for guests. We have to check in and check out everyday. The problem is that, Trip.com didn't mention that. Too bad.

Facilities were pretty clean and good. Stayed in the women's only floor and luckily in the lower bunk or else I might have hard time going up and down on the upper bunk. The area have lots of nearby restaurants, and it's nearby the dotonboori and malls so shopping and strolling will be no worries.

The rooms are clean, and the male and female floors are separated. The front desk service is very friendly. It's very close to JR Namba Station and OCAT Bus Terminal, making it ideal for travelers catching early morning buses.

This was my first time staying in a capsule hotel, so I was quite worried, but I found the facilities to be clean and especially considerate towards women. They provided sanitary pads, hair lotion, and spray in the restrooms. Even for the affordable price, I was very satisfied. The space separation was well done, and it was so cute that the front desk handed out candies! However, it's about a 15 to...

I felt safe and comfortable .They had only the women's floor and everything was clean. The location is very close to OCAT building where I got off from Haneda airport bus, but it's about 15 mins walk to the shopping center.

The hostel is located nearby JR Namba station (South Exit) only 1 min by walk and there is the elevator in the building on the right hand side of south exit of JR namba station that you can use to get down and the building is connected with JR Namba station south exit. There is separate floor for only women that you have to tap the keycard in the elevator to go up to your floor and tap again on the...

The hotel is clean. Staff can communicate in English. Location is great, just behind namba station.

A great stay. The capsule room was comfortable and spacious. Great service!

The hostel is conveniently located directly outside Higashimikuni Station (take exit 1-3 for the nearest entry to the hostel). I stayed here for 4 nights and it was reasonably comfortable. The shower was decent sized, toilets had heated seating and the communal space was spacious. The capsule dorm had a large number of capsules but most days there weren’t much occupancy. They provide PJs, Pola skin...

Weird rules 10am need to out even booked for 3 night

This was my first experience staying at a capsule hotel so it takes some getting used to at first, but I was really pleasantly surprised. The shower facilities are very nice and clean. The capsules are quite basic but comfortable enough and they all have charging ports. Lockers, towels and roomwear are all provided free of charge. The location is good - just a 1 minute walk from the metro station....

It's really inconvenient that shoes have to be locked on the first floor. The lockers are also too narrow to fit a suitcase. Other than that, the conditions are pretty good.

It might be a bit more expensive than a capsule hotel, but overall the facilities are good. Service and transportation are definitely not an issue. It's a great choice for staying in Osaka.

Loved the hotel so much that we decided to extend our trip here at Osaka because of this hostel! Loved the super woke culture and staff of this hotel. Too cool

The room was spacious and the neighborhood was quiet, yet not too far from the subway station. Wandering through the small streets felt very much like being in Japan. The front desk staff was incredibly patient and communicated with me using a translator. The bathroom and shower were very clean. However, it's worth noting that this room only has a private shower, not a private toilet.

Great location! It's only a 10-minute walk to the pedestrian shopping street. However, the water temperature was quite low, and the air conditioning was too dry. The humidifier didn't seem to help much. Overall, though, it was a good stay.

The facilities are well-equipped, and the service is great. The location is also convenient, close to the subway station.

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...

My daughter and I were very happy and satisfied with the hostel’s cleanliness from its room up to the toilets, which is our number requirement for a satisfactory stay in any hostel. I am very glad to discover &And hostel and we’ll surely book again with them once we visit Osaka in spring.

The hotel is accessible and well located, the staff was nice and friendly and the place is near the subway station.

A great experience overall, but getting anywhere requires a long walk since there's no subway or bus service nearby in Japan. Everything depends on walking. The cleanliness was excellent. I expected a tiny room, but it turned out to be just right in terms of size.

I had a wonderful two-day stay here. The hygiene was impeccable, and the room was quite spacious. My favorite part was the communal kitchen in the common area. I wasn't quite used to Japanese food, so it was a lifesaver that the kitchen was fully equipped. I could prepare my own meals.

The location is not far from the station. The staffs are very friendly and they gave us good recommendation for halal food as well during our stays.

Japanese hostels are really clean, much better than those in China, and relatively quieter. Overall, Japanese hostels offer great value for money, with well-maintained facilities and meticulous service. They're perfect for budget-conscious backpackers, solo travelers, or those who enjoy socializing, especially in areas like Kansai with many attractions.

So far so good. Quite a distance to walk to nearest train station.

Its a fine hostal, the matres is thine but you can request a second one if you want to. There is a free basis breakfast (bread, jam thee coffe) that runs from 8 to 10. Bedrooms, showers and washrooms are clean and the staff is helpful if asked.

Good place and awesome ambiance

The shower room was especially clean and nice. There were a lot of foreigners there, but I had no problems. It was quite a walk from the station, but maybe it felt far because the weather was nice and hot. I became friends with the girl in my room and had a fun conversation. I'd like to use it again if I have the opportunity. Thank you.

The best. It's a shame it was short, but I plan to stay again!

Everything is good, but it's just a bit far from the station

The room is clear and the staff are very nice, a good experience.

The hostel is centrally located and easy to get around. Walking distance to Namba station, Dotonburi and Shinsaibashi shopping.

The staff are NOT friendly at all !!! The are like robot working as well, part of the staff do not speak English at all. The biggest advantage of this property is the location.

I had a 4 person room on the ladies floor. The rooms were a bit squashed, but my upper bunk had a small locker, socket and light as well as privacy curtains. Bathroom was clean and showers were not cramped with space to keep your stuff.

Everything good but if you do not have own towel you need to rental and all things was nice in my opinion. And good location you can choose train 2 line between yotsubashi and shinsaibashi.

Stay 2 nights in this hotel, it's the best decision, because this hotel is nice, its a big room hotel in japan, the price is affordable too, and they gave nice breakfast, and hope i can stay again next time

[Not worth it if over 300 yuan per night] Hygiene: It's clean, but compared to hotels and hostels in Japan, I'd say the hygiene level is average. Environment: The overall space is quite small. The corridors and toilets are all quite tiny. The beds are bunk beds, and the ceiling height isn't very generous either. Service: The service was just so-so. The person who checked me in was *********, and their...

I absolutely loved it! The host was incredibly kind and welcoming. Everywhere was spotless and well-maintained, peaceful and quiet. I will definitely be back!

Reviews say the hotel owner is friendly, but I didn't find him that friendly... 🥲 It's definitely close to Namba Station. However, it's a bit of a walk to Dotonbori. Maybe 15-20 minutes?? Like most capsule hotels, the room was incredibly quiet (so as not to disturb other tourists), so unpacking and organizing my luggage felt a bit uncomfortable for a timid person like me... lol😭 I was assigned to...

The owner is very friendly, and the place is very well-managed. Guests were quiet and considerate, not disturbing one another.

There were women-only rooms, and many people stayed alone. There was also a place to hang out, so it was great for a night stay.

Is it really good 👍 feel like in home everyone really friendly , if I have a chance will back to hostel again!

I enjoyed my stay, the bed was spacious and comfortable. Though the living room can be slightly cleaner. 

so clean and tidy, bed was comfy and it was conveniently located, 5 min walk to Tamede station and like 10-15 mins to Namba. really great place to stay and great value for money.

It is clean and close to metro station. It is good value for money for a solo traveller.

The soundproofing is not good enough, you need noise-canceling headphones. It's clean and very close to Saibashi Dotonbori

It was a fantastic place. With a reggae and tropical vibe, i felt stylish, and the staff were all friendly, making it a spot I can’t wait to brag about to my friends once I’m back. The location was amazing, just about a 10-minute walk to both America-mura and Namba, making it incredibly convenient. The dormitory room I stayed in was also quiet, and the bed was equipped with all outlets, standard,...

There are many foreigners, it's a bit far from the subway, and there is no kitchen

We had a private room which was not far away from the hostel itself (half a block walk). The private room was a small apartment with even a small balcony and a kitchenette. We did not use the kitchenette, but on first look, there was not much kitchenware available. Clean, quiet and in a great location.

Location is good. It might not in the center of Namba but you can walk along the river with the good atmosphere to Dotonbori. I stay in woman dorm on 4th floor which lift provided. Room is big! I can lay my big bag! Bed is so cozy and pillow too. There are 2 shower rooms, 1 toilet and 2 sink for tooth brush. They provide shampoo, conditioner, body wash and hair dryer. Left baggage is okay before&...

Staffs are extremely friendly! Price is good and bedroom is broad.

Upon entering, change into slippers, register on paper, and the staff will give you a small card indicating your floor and room code. Return the card to the front desk upon check-out. The room is clean and tidy, with a soft mattress and latex pillows. After 10 PM, please maintain quiet by using earplugs; there's virtually no noise, ensuring a good night's sleep. Complimentary slippers, hairdryer...

We stayed in a private room that had four bunks & a private shower. Very comfortable, quiet, & warm in January. I speak fairly good Japanese & had some wonderful conversations with our host. She'll make sure you have what you need, know where you are going, & see you off. Definitely staying here again.

This hostel was everything I needed and nothing more. The twin room I had was compact but had enough space to unpack and relax. Everything was clean and comfortable. It was nice to crank up the AC after being in the heat all day. The man at the front desk was welcoming and friendly, and showed me how to use the laundry machines. Located within walking distance of Dotonbori as well. I'd happily stay...

Good location only five minutes from Ebisu, nice spacious beds with good privacy and at a very reasonable price. Staff there have excellent English, no issues communicating with them. Don't take card even if you booked using one though.

Good value. Bathroom is almost unworkable for a six foot ninety kilo male. The shoe change area is also very small. Staff are friendly and it's well located. The alley is a bit dark but we never felt unsafe.

was here for 11 nights, food on first floor was excellent and great value (cheapest takoyaki I could find at 62 yen/piece even before the discount you get for staying there), showers did take a little bit to warm up and soap sometimes all used up so had to use their body wash, staff was friendly especially suman, would stay here again

Really good value considering the price you pay. Rooms are clean, staff are polite and the bathrooms are always clean. Been in more expensive hostels with bad shared facilities but cannot fault this one. Will definitely come back I also appreciate their rules to ensure all guests feel comfortable.

Was a bit apprehensive from the other reviews, but once there I decided to add another night since the price was unbeatable (most likely, due to the Expo, which many other guests seem to be going too), the location really convenient, and the rooms decent. I think it'll depend what kind of other guests stay and if they're considerate, otherwise the staff were this friendly young crew working at the...

The hostel is located right above a bar&restaurant so don't be shy entering to check in haha. Great service, really cool people working there. Friendly place. The location is OK, the nearest metro station is like 5-8 min walk. The rooms. The bed is really good the dormitory is great. But, there is no shared space. No where to enjoy the company of others. That was a bummer. No kitchen either.

Decent price, very kind staff and the hostel is in great location. There are no big lockers and the lockers are not in the sleeping area which could be uncomfortable. The lobby is small and the fridge wasn't clean. Overall good experience and very decent price.

Very nice place! Calm part of the city, so no noise. The staff here are very good. Makes you feel very welcome. Beds are also nice. I spent about 8 days there. Got to meet new friends and sleept well. It was spotless. Always clean :)

Easy walk, Places to grab food including restaurants and convenient stores. Clean, comfortable. Had everything we needed for our family of four! Wish I could take poly hostel with me wherever we travel.

Good location! The place is cosy. I have had good time here.

We liked the queen sized bunk beds. It was nice to have our private room with bathroom and also some kitchen plates, cups, silverware. The only thing missing is a safe box and more or thicker pillows. Really nice place to stay with convenient washer in our room and laundromat around the corner. Tons of convenient stores and a few restaurants around. We enjoyed our stay.

Family travel, adults and children are very satisfied with this accommodation. There is room to open 3 suitcases flat. Very clean, great check-in experience.

We had a pleasant stay. The room was perfect for us and our 4 children. Very good value for money, clean and modern room and well-equipped. The hotel is well located for visiting must-see places such as the Tsutenkaku Tower, the aquarium, the Den Den Town, Dontomori, Kuromon Market and more. Lots of restaurants and konbini nearby. In short, we really had a very good stay.

The space is big for japan. Close to xonvenient stores. 3 stations around the premises.

Stumbled upon this place and had two delicious and fresh Banh mi’s and really great coffee sitting in the sunshine. Amazing view of the Hitachi tower. Looked like a lovely hostel too!

I stayed in the hostel and ate the food as customer. It's a super friendly and clean place. If you wanna get some coffee, drink some plum sake, or eat some tasty Vietnamese sandwiches, its the perfect place right by the osaka tower. It has a coffee shop vibe where I listened to the Japanese verson of county roads and road the slide...yes there is a slide but its FAST so be careful. The prices are very...

One of my favourite hostels I stayed in Japan, homely, clean, great location and extremely friendly staff. Special thanks to Eriko, her warm smile and friendly nature made coming back to the hostel everyday so pleasant, like returning home. Thanks Guys!!

The Pax was a great place to stay, the location is great and located beside subway and train lines. The atmosphere is very cozy and they even have events like live performances which the guests can attend for free. The banh mi sandwiches are also very good. I can strongly recommend this place if you are staying in Osaka.

The Pax hotel is simply the best hotel/hostel i have ever been in Japan . The staff is so nice, room are quiet and facilities are very clean ( the share kitchen is also a very calm place to eat). The bar downstairs with good music all the time. Thanky very much for the great journey! Hope to come back again soon 🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️🙏🏼

I’m so glad I chose to stay at The PAX. With so many options, it can be difficult to decide — but this was the perfect place! It’s in a great location, has an excellent cafe (with the best iced chai), and a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff were also so friendly and helpful. It felt like a quintessential hostel experience — I’ll definitely come back next time I visit Osaka!

If you are lucky and have a dorm room to yourself (which may happen quite frequently, because this hostel doesn't seem to get many visitors), then it's better than a hotel, with your own balcony looking out onto Nagai Park and a really nice common bath. No towels, no breakfast/dinner unless you reserve well ahead.

I had stayed at this Youth Hostel back in Jan 2008. I'd have written this review sooner, but haven't had the time to until now. I stayed here for about three or so weeks while in Osaka and have got to say that I adore this hostel, the staff were extremely friendly, helpful and the hostel itself is quaint, comfortable and the area that it's based in is amazing! ^_^ .. I plan to revisit this place...

Very nice hostel with really nice staff. Clean and cheap, the bathrooms are japanese style and very beautiful.

Very convenient for sightseeing, and a quiet, relaxing stay. I really loved it!

This was my first time staying here in Osaka before the pandemic, and I was surprised to find it still open years later. It's affordable and in a great location, right in the alley opposite the Daimaru department store in Shinsaibashi. Shopping and transportation are incredibly convenient. I'll definitely stay here again!

The situation was terrible during the day on December 5th. I took a shower before noon and returned to my room to find the balcony door open. Since I'm on the lower bunk, the wind was blowing in. I initially thought it was a hostel staff member opening it for ventilation, but it was still open when I came back in the evening. Who will be responsible if my things go missing? It seems the guest on the...

The hotel receptionist speaks fluent Mandarin. The main entrance closes after 8 PM, so you have to use the side entrance. She'll demonstrate how to open the door and kindly guide you to your room. The location is good, though it can be a little noisy outside at night.

I was satisfied because the location was good and I got it in a hurry.

It's very close to Shinsaibashi Shopping Street and a few hundred meters from the subway station. The location is perfect. Namba Station on the Nankai Line from the airport is also within a 10-minute walk. The front desk staff is very nice. The room rate is affordable. I will choose this hotel again next time.

I didn't end up staying here, I requested a cancellation and the owner was kind enough to accept. I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt due to all the great reviews, however it didn't suit my travel situation. As a solo traveller and it being my first trip to Japan, I had hoped to meet people. I was the only person at the hostel which was dark and quiet when I arrived. Not super inviting unfortunately...

Had the best time here. The host, Cherry, is the most amazing and welcoming person. She took us to have a Hanami under the Sakura trees and made sure we enjoyed ourselves. It's a small place so you get to make connections with the other people there. The beds were also the most comfy I've stayed at in Japan! You can use the kitchen and fridge. Shampoo and soap provided and towels are available. Extremely...

I loved my stay at Bonfire Hostel. I was only supposed to stay there for 2 nights, but it was so cozy that I ended up staying for 8 days. The host, Taka, was also very kind in making arrangement for my extended stay, very accommodating. Ha Had always helped me whenever I borrowed the free bike. :) I also met a bunch of cool travellers like me and we even went on a trip together. 5 stars easily! If...

A cozy place for backpacker buddy. Worth to stay here last year. Love! Wanna go back!

Arrived late and had informed the staff I would. They were amazing at communicating with me before my stay and even emailed the day I was to arrive to let me know they had my bed ready. Beds are super comfy and clean. The hostel its self is super clean. Bathroom was very clean, smelled nice, and easy to find. The sinks outside the bathroom have free to use shaving cream, hair dryers, contact solution...

Bit far from the “touristy” part and the train station, but oh so worth it. Clean comfy beds, amazing bathrooms. And the staff was warm and welcoming. Always interested on our wellbeing. I was so bummed when I couldnt stay a night longer, because it was all booked!

As per price range this place was not bad. Front desk can speak English.

The staff is awesome! It's good when at the bar, there's a mix of tourists and locals. The hostel is a bit old but the beds are nice. If you want to go to Nara there's a train station close to the hostel. You don't need to change trains

I used it for the Osaka Expo. I was the only Japanese person there, and it was mostly just foreign guests. It had a homey feel and good amenities. There were lockers on the upper floors. It's about a 20-minute walk from Shinsaibashi in the center of Osaka.

Good for solo traveller and got low budget.

If you can stomach an open hostel style, this is quite a good deal. Very close to the subway and a 15 minute walk to the famous Dotonbori, Glico Man sign etc. The bar at front is cozy and it was nice chatting with other travellers and locals alike.

Quite a lot of people sharing just one toilet and noise can’t be avoided. However, host are really welcoming and location are good.
