The staff was very welcoming and kind. However, the rooms were very small and the beds were terribly uncomfortable. After four nights my neck and back were really sore and my muscles were strained. Also, there was a really bad smell of urine in the bathroom even though it seemed that it was cleaned.

The hotel is well located in the city centre and the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was the smallest hotel room I’d ever stayed in. Limited space to store luggage, clothes and toiletries. The bin was so small and wasn’t emptied for the 3 days I was there. No other bins around the hotel. We used the laundry facilities - which were great but again the small bin there was over flowing. The terrace at the front of the hotel was a nice spot to sit with friends.

This a cheap hotel but it's orderly and there are no wholes in the furniture but the room is gross. the toolset bidet is gross . the dust is so thick. the carpet is scary and I saw a roach. however the bed sheets were clean I check and the tiny towel I had for the 3 night was clean. if I didn't pay for all the nights up front I would have left.

Clean room and bathroom. Front desk staff were helpful during check in and when we stored our baggage after check out. There was a currency converter machine near the front desk which was helpful when trying to convert cash. Osaka JR station was an easy walking distance from hotel. There is also a metro station next by a Lawson that is a few steps walking distance from the hotel.

This ended up being a great little spot to stay for a few nights while in Osaka. The rooms are tiny and hotel is modest, but well kept and for the price was a great option. Available buffet breakfast in the hotel (not included, but available for ¥2,000) was convenient. Location was great in terms of accessing various things via transit, and the Umeda area itself offers lots to explore within walking distance. Hotel staff were really helpful, and even arranged to have our luggage shipped ahead to our next hotel in Tokyo (cost us about ¥3,100 for a large suitace). If you're planning to mostly be out of the hotel and are just looking for an affordable, convenient location to have a bed for the night - would recommend!

Despite requesting a quiet room, I was assigned one facing a busy road and barely slept due to traffic noise and a neighboring room’s alarm. There was also an unpleasant sewer smell from the bathroom. While check-in was smooth and one of the evening receptionists was kind and pleasant, the overall stay was disappointing.

Very courteous and helpful staff. It's very close to a subway stop and walkable to the JR Osaka station and various stations around it. it's a budget hotel, so about par for the course, don't expect much more than that. However, when I booked it said it could sleep 3 (2 adults + a child) and that's not true. There's only a single double bed, so unless you're all very tiny, 2 is more realistic.

I wouldn’t stay here . . .

We booked this hotel based on its location, and its overall rating. But we have learned a big lesson – we should have read some reviews before booking - not after booking. After booking the room, we queried the Hotel about reviews that mentioned bedbugs, excessive noise by other guests, tiny room ceiling height, and cleaning needed in some rooms. We sent polite queries, but never received a single response so we ended up paying again for a different hotel, which was excellent. I have never had a Hotel just refuse to answer my multiple, reasonable and polite emails.

As the name suggests, the hotel is nothing fancy, but the location is great and the reception provides basic amenities which you can take as ypu need. The staff is amazing and helpful. Our biggest issue was getting a non-smoking room on a floor, often flooded with cigarette smell, which got into the room despite closed doors. They gave us a different room on another floor, which appeared to be overall in better shape and which we can't complain about. The walls are a bit thin and you can hear next door, but if you don't mind that, it's a great option to stay at.

The Ibis budget in Osaka is much better than the Ibis budgets we have in the UK. The room was quite small, but spotlessly clean and generally fine. It is a \"no frills\" hotel so we weren't expecting much but actually we were pleasantly surprised. We generally slept quite well, but the hotel was not as sound-proofed as other Japanese hotel and the hotel does appear popular with \"westerners\": we had some irritating children running around the corridors in the early evening (not the hotel's fault of course). No real traffic noise, despite being on a busy road. The hotel is quite close to Osaka station but it is quite long, somewhat stressful walk with luggage from the JR station. However, overall, I would say the location was convenient, since only a few minute's walk to the metro station. Overall, this was good and I'd stay again.

It is an excellent and convenient hotel to stay at if you are on a budget (as the name implies), and it still looks like a semi-premier hotel on the inside. The breakfast included was also great.

Although I understand the dedication to eco-friendliness, the fact they only do room service once every 3 days wasn't my cup of tea.

Otherwise, I highly recommend this place to stay as it's also decently close of many train stations.

Ibis Budget Osaka Umeda is about a 10-minute walk from Umeda Station and there are plenty of shops and restaurants along the way to keep you entertained. Umeda Station links to all the major tourist spots in Osaka, so this hotel's location is perfect for exploring Osaka.

The rooms are small but have all you need if you plan to spend your time in Osaka outside of the hotel. In addition, the staff were very helpful and welcoming. I would definitely stay here again on my next visit to Osaka.

The property is near Hankyu station, so it is rather easy to access. I do think that it will be nice if the amenity is ready in the room.
The room that I was in was really good too. I was able to have a good view of the city.

The breakfast was simple and delicious. It would be nicer if the staff would have elaborated more about the choice between bread and rice selection. Overall, it was really good.

Would be looking forward to staying here again.

Budget is in the name, so that should set your expectations. I have stayed at Ibis before and it is generally good. This one felt more bare bones, but still totally fine. I had the good fortune of an excellent check in clerk who spoke great English. The heat controls worked (which is not always the case in hotels) but the mini fridge did not. Win some, lose some.
