JJack KFExcellent value and comfort for groups and families
I recently stayed at b& TENGACHAYA, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice—especially for groups or families. The room layout is one of its biggest strengths. With two queen-size beds, the space comfortably accommodates up to four adults, making it perfect for family trips or group travel. The room is impressively spacious, with plenty of floor area to open multiple suitcases without feeling cramped. Given that it can fit four adults comfortably, the cost per person is significantly lower compared to booking two standard twin hotel rooms—great value for money.
The apartment comes fully equipped with basic cookware, a stove, sink, microwave, washing machine, and other essentials. This makes it easy to reheat convenience-store meals or even prepare simple breakfasts. A thoughtful design feature is the separation door between the sleeping area and the kitchen/bathroom, which helps reduce noise and light, allowing some guests to sleep while others cook, shower, or get ready—very convenient for families with different schedules.
Since b& TENGACHAYA operates as a self check-in apartment hotel, all instructions are provided via the Trips chat, and they were clear and easy to follow. If you arrive before the 16:00 check-in time, you can store your luggage in the lobby area without worry, which is extremely helpful for travelers who want to explore immediately without dragging suitcases around.
The location is excellent. From Kansai International Airport (KIX), you can take the Nankai Limited Express and reach the hotel area with just a 5–8 minute walk from Tengachaya Station. Several convenience stores are just steps away, and there are plenty of restaurants, cafés, and supermarkets around the station area. Whether you need a late-night meal or want to stock up on groceries, everything is within easy reach. The neighborhood is lively but feels safe, and public transportation access makes it simple to get around Osaka.
One small downside is that the apartment is located next to the train tracks, so you may occasionally hear trains passing by. However, the noise level was generally acceptable for us, and interestingly, my son actually enjoyed watching the trains go by from the room.
Overall, b& TENGACHAYA offers generous space, practical facilities, and great value, especially for groups or longer stays. I would definitely choose this property again for future trips.
