Hotels near Kitamura Playground, Osaka

Osaka Nippori B&B is worth recommending👍👍👍 The location is good, the transportation is good, the boss lady is very warm and considerate ❤ and she is Chinese, so there is no barrier to voice communication👍👍👍Wish the boss a prosperous business🌺🎉🎁

We arrived earlier than the check in time, and are able to drop off the luggages at the reception and come back later for check in for free. The staff can speak multiple languages, (Japanese, English, Chinese,etc) able to communicate without any problem. Room is very clean and cleaning service is provided each day. Location is close to Nanba. Very convenient. Close to a metro station as well, easy to locate. Would recommend.

改装されたそうで、フロントもロビーも、部屋もキレイです。 ＪＲ新今宮駅を出てすぐだし、ほんとに泊まるだけなら安いです。 ただ、理解しておかなければならないのは、トイレ、お風呂は部屋にはありません。トイレは階に１か所の共同トイレ（男女別）です。お風呂は大浴場か、シャワールームの利用になります。私が利用した部屋は３畳の畳部屋。布団が一式。 土曜日でもう開いているところがなくて利用しましたが、泊まるところがなければ利用も全然ＯＫだと思います。とにかく料金が安いので、その辺は了解できます。土曜日でも３８００円でしたから。 プライベートはしっかり守られますので、カプセルホテルより断然いいです。バックパッカーとかにはおすすめです。 なので、若い学生さんや、工事関係の連泊、外国人さんなどが多いようです。 ただ、よくわかりませんが、ロビーやシャワールームって、宿泊者以外の人も利用している感じがするのは私だけなのかな？

High CP value for the good location and low price. Has everything I needed.. from the convenience stores. Able to purchase amenities from the counter as well. Friendly counter service. Women storey and men storey differ a lot in terms of quality and availability of services. Sauna from the hotel is only catered to the men. Women storey has doors with wide opening at the top, thus smoke smells travel easily. The bed curtain helps to reduce smell but the wrong and hallways always reek of cigarette despite being a non-smoking building 🤦🏻♀️ I do hope the management enforces this policy strictly.

My first stay during my first trip to Japan. It was Spring 2018. I was excited because my little room was a tatami floored room. The small room was a basic room for two guests. There was only one plug point to charge our many electrical gadgets, so oh boy im glad i brought along a plug socket with 4-5 outlets. The room was too small for even the two small Asians like us. we have no place to put our backpacks (there were only two bags but) once we spread the futons. This small room actually suitable for a single guest. The bathrooms and toilets are normally clean for Japanese standards. You have to pay separate charge for your towels. Our room situated on the 4 or 5th floor i cant remember but there was only one floor for lady's bathroom - the hostel got about 40 to 50 rooms but there are only 2-3 bathrooms for ladies to share. I woke up very early to take bath but was very disappointing to see the long queue of Japanese female workers who unable to go home and slept here for the night. Imagine the long hours i have to wait to get my turn. sometimes i tried to go to another level to try the unisex bathrooms but they were definitely full with guys. The pantry on the ground floor offered hot water with 3-in-1 drinks. there are vending machines for you to buy mineral water or soda or sweet drinks. The walls between the room are super thin and you can hear everything loud and clear. The door is made of steel so when someone close it with a bang it can be very annoying. Well we were kind of grateful (feeling console?) that the room got a mini fridge. And that the hostel is near to the train station. I'm coming back to Osaka soon but nope, I'm not going to coming back to this hostel just to get myself headaches for the bathrooms. The friend who booked this hostel for us thought we wanted the cheapest room in Osaka and she never asked us about the quality of the service. Well this is the negative side of coming to Japan in Spring i guess. Everything comes in expensive price.

Amenities wise, I feel that this hotel offered a great bargain. The shower area and toilets are clean and well-equipped, and the rooms very simple yet cosy. However, as a female solo traveller, the hotel’s good facilities and price were not enough to keep me there for more than a night because of its location. While yes, it is a walking distance to the train station, it requires one to walk down very quiet, almost empty and dimly lit alleys. Found out later that the hotel is located in a low-income, red district, hence explaining the people I saw loitering around. Hence, while the hotel is decent and the area filled with cheap food, I would caution solo travellers (particularly females) to think twice.

Location is great, service was good and breakfast was the best. It was near the famous Glico man. It is also within walking distance to Parco and other great stores. ABC Mart, Uniqlo, Atmos are near. As to food trips, there are a lot of ramen places around. Namba Station is about 1 kilometer away, which can be easily be walked even with luggages, where you can board the Nankai Line to Kansai Airport. Yes, the airport is just a train ride away, no need to hire expensive private transfers.

Simple no frills hotel, good if you are just looking for a hotel to have a rest after long day out. Have all the basic amenities you will need such as shampoo, conditioner, body wash, foam wash, towels, toothbrush, comb, etc. You can borrow umbrella from the hotel if the day is raining. There are also washer and vending machine within the hotel. Location is walking distance away from dotonbori and the nearby subway.

The hotel has a great location, with views of Osaka Castle, and it's only 20 minutes to attractions like Osaka's Shinsaibashi. There was a concierge when we checked in. Even though we have Gold status, we stayed in an executive room, so after we checked in at the front desk, we went to the lounge to wait for our room to be ready. Once it was, our luggage had already been moved into the room. There was no welcome fruit, but there were cookies. The room is not large, 26 sqm, but it is very well-decorated, with high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a nice view. The hotel just opened in 2024, so all the facilities are very new. The hardware is well-made, and the bathroom is fully equipped with TOTO smart fixtures. The quality of the food and drinks in the lounge was quite good, and the desserts weren't too sweet. In addition to a continental breakfast, you can also enjoy some Japanese specialty snacks. The electronic room key worked well, with hardly any issues. It could be used in the gym, pool, elevator, and room. The gym isn't large, but it's well-equipped, with all Precor products. 酒店位置很好，能看到大阪城，20分钟能去到大阪心斋桥等等景点。入住时有礼宾。虽然是金卡，但是我们入住行政房，因此我们在前台办理好后就去酒廊等待房间准备就绪。在就绪后，我们的行李已经被搬进房间。没有欢迎水果，但是有曲奇。 房间不大，26sqm，但是装修很好，层高很高，有落地窗，景色不错。是2024年新开业的酒店，设施都很新，五金件很紧致，全套toto智能卫浴。 酒店的酒廊出品质量以及酒的质量都不错，甜点不腻。早餐除了欧陆早餐，还能吃到一些日本特色小食。 电子房卡好用，很少掉链子，健身房、泳池、电梯、房间均可用。健身房不大，但是设施齐全，全部都是precor的产品。

This was my second time staying here. I had a comfortable stay, just like last time. The room was more than spacious, the facilities and amenities were impeccable, it was reasonably priced, and more comfortable than other business hotels in the area. Thank you very much.
