It was a nice and clean hotel, and felt like we got great value out of the room. The staff and meditation activity were great, also tried the breakfast offered and it was quite delicious. The only complaint is really just location in regards to the primary train station. The nearby station almost always requires a transfer and its connection points aren’t the best. This isn’t close to either of the big stations and taxis were pricey because it’s not really close to anything. There’s some cool shopping within 20–25 minutes, which just isn’t quite as convenient as other options. But, again… great service, great value overall.

Loved zen vibes and tatami floor. The location is convenient if you like to walk and explore. It takes 10-15min to Tenoji station by foot and there’s shopping malls and lots of restaurants (less tourists which I liked) I would walk to Namba area, it took me maybe 25min.
Staff are friendly and helpful. Very clean. Only down side is they don’t have a coin laundry but there is a laundromat 3 min away.

Very nice Buddhist hotel

This hotel has a Buddhist theme. The rooms are Japanese style, clean & very comfortable
Staff are very friendly.
The only downside was I didn't think the breakfast was quite worth the price but it's good to do once.
Finally it seems remote but it really isn't a number of great local places in under 10 mins walk and lots in 20

Really special spot. The gentleman at the front desk opened up the zazen room for me to participate in a live program the evening I arrived. Tons of Buddhist literature and instructions if you are interested in that! Super cozy room, comfy beds and sleep attire. They give you the cutest slippers to take home and offer you a bag of silica to use to soak with in the bath. Truly a unique and special place. So grateful to have stayed there. I love the traditional tatami mat with all the added comforts (warm toilets).

The hotel was really nice, but it was in the middle of what seemed like a residential area. The closest convenience was at least a 5 min walk. The train stations were at least 7 min away. Other than that, the hotel room was very spacious and the staff and amenities were excellent.

Clean, neat, and quiet place. I also took part in the morning ceremony and meal and it was very interesting. Only me and another Japanese person went. Since I speak both English and Chinese, the tour guide from the hotel translated the service for me in Chinese. The meal was pretty good for a temple fare.

Beautiful place with very good vibes.
A little bit far from subway station but if you like walking 10~15 it'd ideal for you. Good wifi, good stream of hot water, music in the room (which you can adjust), recommended.

Loved the traditional Japan feel - bright wood everywhere and Buddhist theme was great! Made for a very relaxing stay. Important to know that this is not typical hotel with buffet style breakfast and the room had low bed almost on the floor, bathroom was cozy. Make sure you look at the photos and read the description to know what this is.

Personally i loved everything about it. Was a great introduction to Osaka.

Lovely Buddhist Inn, Brilliant Staff

Wa-Qoo is a unique inn, situated in the historic area of Shitennoji Temple and associated with many activities connected with the Temple. If you know little of Japanese Buddhism and traditional culture, this could be an easy introduction for you. If you are more familiar, you might still enjoy it. The staff are all wonderfully welcoming and kind. My room was perfectly comfortable. If you have time in the morning, the Buddhist service at one the Shitennoji temples -- ours was at Aizen-do (I'm not sure if this is always the service site) -- is well worth the time. I had to rush to catch an air flight, but the vegan breakfast -- traditional Buddhist vegetarian cuisine -- was delicious. I did not have dinner the night before, but I wish I had. I highly recommend Wa-Qoo Shitaderamachi. You won't be disappointed.

Room was really nice good size for japan and super mix between western comfort and Japanese zen style. The location is a bit out of Namba but metro is 10 min walking. Good for universal 45 min / airport 60min.

Staff super nice the only not nice thing is the phone call at 10.05 am to remind the super early checkout at 10 am. Usually in japan it is 11am (already early for westerner)

Si quieren experimentar lo que es hospedarse en un hotel tipo podada japonesa con suelos tipo tatmis camas de futon; este es el correcto.

Aún mas importante, la excelencia y amabilidad extrema del personal hacen que la experiencia sea lo mejor de tu estancia; realmente sabrás lo que es la atención a amabilidad japonesa a un 1000%

Les recomiendo si viajan a Osaka pasar un par de días en este hotel.

God værdi for pengene

Dejligt, traditionelt japansk værelse med behagelige senge. Pænt og rent. Der var meget varmt hvis ikke airconditionanlægget kørte og det var desværre ikke til at undgå at luften ramte den ene seng. Meget sødt og hjælpsomt personale i receptionen. Vi fravalgte den traditionelle japanske morgenmad. Beliggenhed tæt på Dotonbori, men ret fredeligt. Gåafstand til station hvorfra vi nemt kom til Nara.

Great choice for vegan/vegetarian/yogi

Super clean and cozy hotel with various kinds of Zen experience. The meals probided here are shojin ryori, which is a traditional Japanese Buddhist meal with almost all plant-based ingredients (except honey, and they do present a couple choices of seafood delicacy so better ask if you are straight plant-eater). As a vegan it is always a trouble to find a nice breakfast in Japan as the idea of veganism is still relatively less known. So having a bowl of delicious warm congee with 10 kinds of marinated and pickled delicacy to choose from every morning is SUCH a blessing! And an authentic shojin dinner is also available by reservation in advnce and with extra charge, which is definitely worth having! Just too amazing!
The staff are all super warm and kind.
As there are many kinds of special experience offeres here, everything has written explanations in three languages and also a guide to acompany the guest, whom could speak Japanese, English, and Mandarin, according to the guests' need.
For yogis, the single room is spacious enough to spread a yoga mat and do sun salutaion, which I'd say is not common in Japan. A great place for spiritual cleansing in the busy city of Osaka.

素食者和瑜伽行者們的極佳住宿!不止地方超乾淨超舒服,服務溫暖貼心,這裡的精進料理早餐和晚餐實在太好吃,太精緻了!不止料理可體驗到日本佛教的文化,還有多種像抄經、坐禪、早課等體驗。是個能在都市中做身心靈淨化的好選擇!
