Hostels in Osaka PrefectureHostel

Hostel Caranashi is easily one of the most homey accommodation you can find!

It’s a cozy and warm hostel, which makes me relaxed and I recommended to my friends after first day of stay.

Hands down, the best place I’ve ever stayed.
The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, and the entire floor had such a cozy vibe. The toilets, shower booths, and rooms were all very clean!

Stayed 3 nights in the dorm beds at Hostel Osaka. Reception is on 1st floor, rooms and dorm beds are on floors 2-5.

What an amazing experience! This hostel really exceeded my expectations. The atmosphere was super cozy and relaxed, making me feel right at home immediately.

I think this might be the first review I have ever written, but I felt I had to. This is by far the best hostel I have stayed at in all of my travels.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Mitsuwaya.

Really enjoyed my stay at Mitsuwaya!

This was the first place I stayed in Japan and what a perfect welcome it was! This place is great. Clean, comfortable and well-equipped with a coffee shop which I would highly recommend.

We had a great stay at this place. The waitresses are very friendly (two beers please 😄) very beautiful traditional place, perfect for foreigners wanting to discover Osaka.

Surprisingly very good! A unique experience start from when you checked in, stayed for 8 nights.

Amazing experience at Sekai hotel. It’s a hotel that makes you feel like home. Staffs are warm and friendly and give a lot of useful recommendations.

One of my favorite places I stayed at in Japan! Hostel staff were very friendly and helpful. The building is old but feels homely and welcoming. Beds were comfortable.

Such a lovely place to stay. Great facilities, very comfy beds, lockers and storage space was great and really friendly staff. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.

Wow! I am impressed with their unique ways of existence. If you are interested in the possibility of an art to engage with the broader society, you would enjoy experiencing Cocoroom.

A great spot. Good location close to a metro stop. Nice common area. Indoor and outdoor seating. They offer a family style meal at a reasonable price. Interesting people are attracted to this hostel.

Location was excellent, you could get to station from the same elevator the hostel used. Staff were helpful and nice. Beds were fine for a hostel.

I stayed here for two nights, and had a great experience. The staff was very friendly and welcoming when I first arrived. Great location that is near great sightseeing parts of Osaka.

I stayed at the pax for a week, and this one of the best choices I made for my trip! The dorms were quiet, clean and the bed was nice. I slept very well during the night.

This hostel is hands down the best hostel I've stayed at. Great location in osaka and relatively close to everything you'd wanna see.

Was pretty nervous for my first stay in a dorm but Takeshi and Yumi were fantastic hosts.

I really enjoyed my stay at this guesthouse. The location was in a nice quiet area of town, but was close enough to the station. The bed was comfortable and everything was really clean.

Extremely nice hostel. The staff were always so friendly and kind. I stayed in a room with several beds, but it was very comfortable and I slept well.

Was one of my favorite stays in Japan, if I ever come back to Japan ill be looking to stay again. Great spot to meet other travelers too. Also a cool wall you can post a Polaroid picture of the gang.

20 minute walk to Universal and even shorter walk to train station. Easy access to city.
Spacious bunks and very clean facilities, well laid out kitchen.

Had the most amazing time here! Me and my boys stayed here while visiting Osaka and ended up extending an extra night. Staff was very friendly and welcoming.

Its a Hostel, the shared space is enough for 5-6 people to sit at the main table and enjoy a drink/dinner. The shared spaces are clean and the rooms were clean besides the amount of dust in the room.

Nice Hostel with a good location near Namba Station. Also a really nice host. Rooms a comfy and u can also do Ure laundry there. A 7-11 and a family mart is near by.

Very good and Clean Place 👌 Demir the Receptionist very helpful and Funny Pal, He offers to help each and every time and also makes tasty chicken soup😁
Very close to Markets, Shops, Metro and good

It’s not just great service, they really care about people :)
I unexpectedly became ill while visiting, and when I asked for help they scheduled me a doctor’s appointment, something I couldn’t have

I had the most wonderful experience here. Kaz, Kaz Senior and Yoko are the most kind and catering people I have met. They go far and beyond to make your experience as welcoming as possible.

Super friendly staff!
And very nice guide!
I love this hostel I stay almost every time I visit Osaka. Ans kansai,
Sleep so good. Very clean!
Love design so cute area!

Good location and the owner was very nice and understanding.
I had stayed the night before heading to the airport and had my flight delayed.

As a solo traveler, it was nice to arrive at a hostel where there’s social events on in the evenings with other guests.

This has been the best experience in a hostel so far. The most fun and social hostel in Japan with their board of activities and the people you meet there.

Convenient location near Namba and nipponbashi station. Near kuromon market too. Room is spacious and clean! Easy checkin and checkout.

Stayed in the Japanese style room.
Check in was swift — Taiwanese receptionist assisted to check us in on our check in day. On other days the counter will be unattended.

Perfect place to stay if you're visiting Osaka for sightseeing. It's walking distance from Osaka Castle as well as transportation options.

Had an absolutely great stay here, staff were beyond friendly we were practically treated as family.

Super affordable hotel in an area that has character. Had my own room (quite small but could move around) with a small TV. Wi-Fi was reliable and fast.

(Two night stay in mid-October, 2025; review cross-posted to Agoda.

The nearest subway to this guesthouse is Midoribashi (the bridge is literally green). It's like 30 mins from Dotonbori by subway + walk.

Place: I booked the hostel to be access a more calmer part for a good price. The green line brings you to the center quickly and 15 min walk to Osaka Castle Park.

Had a good experience with the single room. The rooms are quite small, but they’re perfect for those who just need a private space to sleep.

The room is a bit tight but clean and comfortable. The common area are cozy. The walls are quite thin, though thankfully our neighbors were respectful and quiet.

I stayed in the women’s room.
On the 4th floor. Clean spacious. The bathroom had 2 showers so use it when ya can!
Staff was helpful in holding on to my bags before and after check out.

Perfect location I couldn’t recommend more! Communal eating area with plenty of seating, and is a cafe/ restaurant in the day too!

Absolutely wonderful. Very friendly staff. Clean room with personalised notes. In comparison to other hostels they offer less, but honestly, to sleep this place is awesome! Great value for your money.

The host is very nice and helpful, also for topics that are not related to the hostel itself. The hostel is nice, clean, calm and very! well located. The only problem is that lockers are super tiny.
