Homestays in Osaka

An excellent apartment that I would absolutely stay again. Spacious enough for our family of 2 adults and 2 kids. The whole process is hands-free and entry is all via access codes, so you need to read the instructions that are emailed to you and there are no cards or keys to lose. It's really clean, and very modern inside. It has fast internet with Wifi as well as Wired included in the room which is rare. The metro station is just around the corner as well as the JR station and there is a small but convenient 7-11 opposite. It has everything you should possibly need included the washing machine (which they even provided washing powder) and there is a drying rack that you can place on the balcony to dry your clothes. It's far enough away from the centre to avoid the touristy part of the city, but close enough with the metro to take 10-15 mins to be in the heart of the bright lights, shopping and usual tourist traps.

They provide bathrobes, and you need to sort your own trash. For a four-night stay, you can request one room cleaning service. It's about a 6-minute walk from the subway station, making it very convenient to get to Dotonbori. The room has a washing machine, microwave, and kettle. You can hang your freshly washed clothes in the bathroom, turn on the drying function, and they'll dry quickly.

It's quite close to the Chishin-Nakajima-Nanago Railway Station, and there's a 24-hour supermarket nearby. It's a 20-minute walk to JR Shin-Osaka Station. The entire room is decorated with tomato themes. There's a clothes drying area on the second floor and a night view from the third. The only inconvenience is that the toilet and shower are only on the first and second floors, and the living room is only open from 6:30 AM. Free coffee is available, and the kitchen has a microwave and kettle, which is very convenient.

A cozy, spacious room with a kitchen, separate toilet and shower. We had a great stay. The hotel is perfectly situated. Close to lots of supermarkets, restaurants and subway stations. Check in was easy. The hotel staff were in contact with me before our stay and provided all the necessary information needed on the day of check in. They were also kind enough to allow us an early check in due to the hot weather. It's a great base for exploring Osaka.

First, let's talk about the location. It's about a 10-minute walk from the station and very close to Tsutenkaku Tower. The hotel apartment itself is quite spacious and has household appliances. It's also relatively quiet at night, with a washing machine and a small balcony where you can hang clothes. This makes it quite convenient for travelers staying a few days. However, my biggest complaint is the bed – it sags significantly, making it feel like you're sleeping in a hole. I considered checking out, but they wouldn't allow it unless I got a new mattress. I wouldn't recommend staying here. Also, the apartment key is in a password-protected mailbox, and initially, I had no idea how to open it. The unlock method and password were only sent at 3 PM on the check-in day. Overall, I personally don't recommend this place.

Stayed here as a solo traveller and first time using capsule hotel. I picked this place because of the good reviews and because its women only which felt safe. The capusle bed itself was decent size, although it did get hot sometimes (visisted April 24-26) but it had everything else! They provided cute pjs, tea/coffee, toiletries, towel etc so I did not need to bring too much. It was about a 14 mins walk to the main Nanba station but it wasn't a problem for me. Self check-in and check-out was easy, my room was quiet even with 4-6 girls (I am a light sleeper so I was worried I would not be able to sleep but I did manage to get some winks).

The room entrance is small, but it has all the necessary amenities. The small kitchen is fine for boiling vegetables, but I wouldn't recommend frying steak or anything that produces a lot of smoke, as it's not well-ventilated and could make the room smell. There's a microwave and a small balcony for drying clothes. The bathroom is really tiny; you'll easily bump your head when standing up, and there's a high step. I wouldn't recommend this place for seniors, children, or pregnant women, as it's easy to trip. It's okay for two people, but any more would be very cramped. It's about a 15-minute walk to the metro station. There's a small supermarket nearby, which is convenient for buying things, and an automatic beverage vending machine downstairs.

This accommodation is conveniently located near Zoo-mae Exit 1. It's a 2-minute walk to Don Quijote Shinsekai, and from there, you can easily reach Tsutenkaku and Ebisucho. If you're coming from Kansai Airport, you can take the Nankai Electric Railway directly to Shin-Imamiya Station, and the hotel is less than a minute's walk from there. There's also a very affordable luggage storage shop just a few steps away (about 4-5 steps), which is great for travelers who want to explore other areas unencumbered. If you're checking out the same day or heading back home, you can simply leave your luggage at the hotel for safekeeping, which is very convenient.

Not far from Shinsaibashi, and dining options are convenient. Check-in is self-service; you just scan the QR code at the front desk. For check-out, simply inform the cleaning staff on the first floor. No accommodation tax is charged.

Location is great because it takes around 20min walking to Tennoji station that has connection to most places. On the way you will find this unusual bar entrance. The room is tiny but even so we somehow found place for 3 suitcases.
