2-Star Hotels in Osaka Prefecture, Japan

This capsule hotel near Nankai Namba Station in Osaka is fantastic. The room is very cozy, and the environment is clean and tidy. It's well-equipped with all the facilities you need. Plus, it's super convenient for shopping, with convenience stores, drugstores, and fruit shops right outside. Highly recommend it to everyone!

I always stay here when I come to Osaka. It's been renovated, and they've removed the doors, replacing them with pull-down blinds. It feels a bit insecure, but I guess it's okay. Even though it's technically safe, I don't *feel* safe. I have to take all my valuables with me when I shower, which really adds to the lack of security. I much prefer having a door. Still, I'll probably stay here again next time I'm in Osaka. The front desk staff speak Chinese, hehe.

The environment is clean and tidy, and the transportation is convenient. It's just right for two adults. The facilities are comprehensive, including a microwave, stove, cooking utensils, a laundry cabinet, detergent, and a refrigerator – everything you need. The location is quiet, near a school district. There's a large supermarket nearby, and you can walk to the Tsutenkaku commercial area. Getting to and from Kansai Airport is also very convenient, with a direct route requiring no transfers, which is extremely handy.

First hotel once touched down in Osaka. It was great as they allow early check in which is so so grateful and thankful for after a long flight due to long layover time. The staff is friendly and nice. But there’s one disturbing thing is every morning around 7/8/9 am, there will be door banging constantly and I assumed it’s the cleaning process which need to open some kind of room constantly. It was quite disturbing as it awakes me almost everyday. There’s the only downside. Other than that, location is great with walking distance to Tsutentaku and near to Zoo and Museum. It’s quite comfortable and will be perfect without the banging noise. Might hesitant to book again due to the noise as a light sleeper. Hope it can be improved in future. Overall, great stay and it’s near to a great luggage storage shop which named Daikoku Locker. Extremely cheap and easy to store,

Here is a natural traveler-style review in English: I had a really comfortable stay at Hotel Sunplaza in Shin-Imamiya. The hotel felt safe, clean, and was perfect for travelers looking for good value. The location is one of its biggest advantages—it’s just a short walk from Shin-Imamiya Station, where you can take the direct Nankai Airport Express to Kansai International Airport (KIX), making airport transfers incredibly convenient. There are also plenty of convenience stores, supermarkets, restaurants, and Don Quijote within walking distance, so shopping and finding food is never a problem. Popular areas like Shinsekai, Tsutenkaku, and Namba are also easily accessible. If you’re looking for an affordable hotel with a great location, easy airport access, and everything you need nearby, I would definitely recommend Hotel Sunplaza. I would happily stay here again on my next trip to Osaka. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Tucked away in the forested hills just outside Osaka, Minoh Waterfall is a breathtaking escape from the urban hustle. The paved 2.7-kilometer trail to the falls offers an easy, scenic walk along the river, especially vibrant during autumn when the Japanese maples turn vivid red. Reaching the impressive 33-meter cascade is pure tranquility. Don't forget to try the local delicacy, momiji tempura (deep-fried maple leaves), along the way. It is a absolute must-visit for nature lovers!

I ended my stay early for a couple of reasons. One; the mattress in my pod was too short and my feet hung off the and. I’m nearly 6 foot. Also, the guy in the pod next to me was snoring very, very loudly all night. Sue the manager kindly let me switch to another pod but I was still uncomfortable so she allowed me to check out early. Also, the place is very cramped and cluttered. Stuff everywhere. It just didn’t suit me. But Sue was unbelievably helpful, kind and understanding.

My room was spotless, spacious, and featured a remarkably comfortable bed. I especially loved the floor-to-ceiling windows offering a beautiful view of the city. The hotel's location is extremely convenient—within walking distance of major landmarks and close to public transit. Only bad thing is they allowed male inside the female only capsule…

I had a great stay at Hotel Lucky in Osaka. The room was clean, comfortable, and offered excellent value for money. The location was very convenient, with train stations, convenience stores, and restaurants just a short walk away. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable place to stay in Osaka.

Stayed in standard twin shared toilet room from 20 - 22 June 2026 2 nights for MYR180 and 14-15 June 2026 1 night for RM57. Highly recommended for solo travellers as the hotel is clean, convenient, walking distance to Shin Imamiya Nankai Line station, Shin Imamiya JR Osaka Loop and Dobutsumae / Tennoji Zoo Metro Station (Interchange for 2 metro lines). Nitori, Donki, many hotels and some eateries are also within walking distance. Shower room is at ground floor and gender-separated. There are 4 shower cells with high privacy and 3 washing basins. Washing machine and drying machine is inside the shower room and you can pay by coin or apps. There is a common area at lobby with toilets, microwave oven, electronic kettle and kitchen basin. No water refill machine is provided, I need to buy water bottle at convenience store nearby. The room is very clean and comfortable, it comes with Wi-fi, air conditioner, smart TV (need to pay for certain programme), small fridge, 2 sockets for charging phone and window. There is toilet at every floor. After booking, you will receive email to pre register your particulars, upload passport photo and selfie photo. Then you will receive QR code.

Receptionist only work at counter from 9 - 6pm. You can store luggage before check in but cannot store luggage after check out. Check in time is 3pm while check out is 9am. Overall I am very satisfied with the hotel and will definitely come back in future.
