Osaka Guesthouse Hive

Osaka Guesthouse Hive offers budget-minded travelers comfortable, hostel-style accommodations and a cheery, upbeat vibe. The two-pearl property is located in the Kita ward, a short walk from the Umeda Sky Building and Umeda and Osaka train stations. Facilities are limited, but there’s a well-stocked communal kitchen with a full-size fridge, electric cooktop, microwave, and kettle, plus coin-op laundry, public computers, a lounge with a TV and video games, and free Wi-Fi. The hotel has 70 units that are a mix of private rooms, and mixed-gender and female-only dorms, all of which cover the basics and share shower facilities. Several past guests have noted that staff at the Hive is particularly friendly and helpful, but for more colorful guest rooms and a movie screening room, check out the J-Hoppers Osaka Guesthouse, which is also a little closer to Osaka Station.
