Lock in a great price for The Dorm Hostel Osaka – rated 9.2 by recent guests!

to get started.

Very friendly staff, loved the free coffee/tea on-site. Nice common space with books and mac computers. Location was a bit hard to find (on the second floor of a building) but once I found it, it was a convenient place from which to get on the metro, with lots of shops, cafes and restaurants nearby.

The hostel was very clean, the beds were confortable, and the common space was very cozy. The coffee and tea bar was a godsend and the location was perfect. It was in walking distance of main attractions but the area itself was not too noisy which was wonderful. Really enjoyed my stay!

The location is excellent. We only stay one night but we wished we stayed more. There are so much to see and eat within 10 min walk radius. The staff is also super nice. One of them point me to a Japanese cooking ware store that I probably won’t be able to find by myself. And of course, I love the book. Very well selected. Highly recommended.

A little bit too many people in one dorm room, limited space for everyone to put their luggages.. so it's a little bit full of stuffs inside.. but it's okay:)
Love the common area and the books and the coffee!

“Great Hostel for a night or two”
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 1 night

The only down side of the Hostel, I’d say, is the fact that you have no window. It’s really inside of a building and it can feel a bit small / uncomfortable at some point.
The staff was great and friendly, very polite and ready to help. The facilities were clean and good. The bunk bed was good! Quite a lot of space for a bunk bed and great to have a little desk to put water, book or phone. Even if it was pretty crowded in the dorm, it was surprisingly silent which I really enjoyed! (Always bring an eye-mask and ear plugs if you have a light sleep no matter what!) In addition to that, you have a common area pretty nice where you can sit, talk, read, and work. They also provide free coffee and water!

There's a bar on the upper floor. Sometimes it's noisy at night time, and you can feel the vibration from the loud sound.
I like the location a lot, it's near Shinsaibashi shopping area and Dotonbori. The staff/ receptionist are nice and helpful. I like the interior design of the hostel.

Nothing, everything was perfect
This has been one of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in. The hosts were so accommodating and I’ve met the most amazing people from all over the world at the hostel because of the amazing common lounge layout. The bathroom, rooms and common area were kept clean throughout the day. They offered everything from coffee to hair ties to ear buds - everything you need on a trip.

“A cosy hostel in the heart of Osaka”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 4 nights
The layout of the hostel is such that all dorms open out into the common lounge space, and everyone needs to walk through that room to reach the bathrooms. When changing etc in your room, just note if someone opens the door, you could be visible to those in the lounge.
The size of the dorm bunks was good, and there was sufficient shelving, clothes hangers, slippers available. Bed was comfortable, Noise was not an issue but I liked the 11pm lights out (more like lights down) policy they had in place for common spaces. Location was great; close to subway, department stores, shops and restaurants, and just a short walk to Glico Man. This is not a large hostel and people were quite friendly with each other. Free tea and coffee was also good!
