Hotels in Osaka Station/Umeda/Yodoyabashi/Hommachi, Osaka

Hotel Keihan Tenmabashi Ekimae offered a phenomenal experience. Its proximity to Tenmabashi Station, Osaka Castle, and the Osaka Museum of History gives access to a wealth of entertainment and food. The hotel itself had friendly staff that seemed to try to assist in English if ever someone did not seem fluent in Japanese and the self-check-in kiosks at the front also supported four languages: Japanese, English, Korean, and Chinese. The room itself was phenomenal, being one of the most spacious I have seen in Japan. What impressed me most, however, had to be the washroom. It was not only incredibly clean, but also the most spacious I have seen to date in Japan. The room also came with a complementary carton mineral water which I thought was quite nice for quality of life. The television is also well equipped information and entertainment and even lets one share their phone screen onto the television. There is also a convenient panel next to the bed that has various functions from controlling the air conditioning and lighting to notifying the staff whether one wants their room cleaned or not. The breakfast they offer, served buffet-style was comprised of various offerings reflecting Japanese, Chinese, and ”Western” culture. While the offerings were satisfactory, I also felt that they may have spread themselves to thin with the variety of the offerings and thus the quality of the individual items suffered from it. In addition, the meal felt like it only partially captured the spirit of each tradition it drew from and ultimately lead to the overall experience being a confused motley of flavours. Overall, while I only stayed for a single day, this was one of the better hotel experiences I have had in Japan.

Hotel is short distance from Shinsaibashi metro station. Really easy to travel via the midosuji lines. Exit from exit 2 from the metro station (exit 1 is under construction when I was there). Plenty of food options along the street and hotel is also really close to dotonburi. Rooms are clean enough for 2 pax in a room. However for big groups booking multiple rooms, do take note that for moderate twin rooms, there is only 1 room per level. So for my booking of 4 rooms, we were spread out in 4 levels. There were a total 5 washing machines with dryer functions in this hotel. Staff were friendly but they speak limited English. Luggage locker room is self service on level 1. IC card is used to lock and unlock the locks.

Clean, new hotel near the subway station. Complete equipment The employees are very attentive. The price is not expensive at all compared to the quality. Will stay here again if I come to Osaka.

Great place! Located at the end of a shopping street full of food. It’s about 10-15 minutes walk to Osaka or Osaka umeda station which is pretty convenient. A lot of shops and malls around those stations too! This apartment is quite spacious and clean. However there was a double and single bed which is more than enough for the two of us. Felt like the single bed could have been replaced by a sofa bed to chill on and have more space for luggage. The washing machine is great and easy to use too. Overall clean and cosy apartment to stay in. Would definitely stay here again!

I’ve stayed here more times than I can remember. Just shows how much I like the IC. The hotel continues to deliver on service, cleanliness and location. With the opening of the Grand Green Osaka there are even more shops, restaurants and greenery around the hotel. It’s a big shame though that with the new office and hotels towers having come up, rooms facing the west, which in the past had the best views of the Umeda Sky Building and the Yodo River now has obstructed views.

The room is quite comfortable, bathroom is big. Room is equipped with washing machine and microwave which it’s quite handy. Free amenities besides receptionist desk I stayed 4 nights, No room cleaning and bedding unless you request it at reception desk. But can request for changing towel everyday. Breakfast options are more to western style. Not much choices but still is delicious

Room is very small , very basic room, clean. Value for the price paid. There is a water dispenser at the lobby which is a plus . There are no facial products being provided unlike other Japanese hotels I have stayed . Lots of food options around , 10 mins walk to Osaka station .

The hotel is so nice and clean. I booked a room for one person in a reasonable price. Even though the bathroom is small, it wasn’t a problem for me. I still love it anyways. The room is not big but stayable. The bed and blanket is so comfy. to be honest, I love it so much that I don’t want to leave this place. I love the fact that the hotel is quite near Sakaisuji-Hommachi station. Alternatively, I could also walk to Namba for only half an hour. Plus I’m really in love with the big supermarket near the hotel. The staffs are also nice and could be able to speak English. Overall, I would totally recommend this place to other people and I would totally stay here again if I have a chance to go back to Osaka!

Self-check-in, the B&B will send the check-in information to your email. Shinsaibashi is next to the house, so it is very convenient. The small kitchen inside is also sufficient, and breakfast can basically be solved; you can also fry a small steak, which can be bought at AEON supermarket. Take the subway Shinsaibashi exit 2, then walk to the Crysta underground mall passage and go to the north exit 7 to take the elevator up, and then walk for another 3-4 minutes to arrive.

The place is very well maintained and clean. Above average for a budget hotel. The distance to osaka station is well within walking distance, even with luggages. Surrounded by many eateries. You will be spoilt for eating choices
