First Cabin Midosuji Namba

Cool upscale version of a capsule hotel. A bit on the pricier side for capsule hotels, but is justified through the amenities and large individual living space. Also extremely close to Dotonbori and other major tourist sties in Osaka!

* Location. It was walkable distance to Namba station (several exit) also Dontonbori * There’s a gym (very small but nice) on 4th floor for guests to use - cost 1000 YEN per day. * the indoor spa, sauna and the cold bath!

The location is right next to a major train station. A few convenience stores are nearby like Lawsons and 7-Elevens. VERY close to shopping complexes and well known chain restaurants. The bed is a bit firm but soft and comfortable. Plenty of free amenities for the stay. You will need to take off your shoes and use their slippers before entering the living area. But that ensures that the entire place is very clean the very first step you enter their premise. There are 4 elevators so you will not need to wait long to get in or out. The place is very kind to allow me to keep my luggages until the check-in time. There are 2 smoking rooms and multiple vending machines. They also have a mini store at the lobby if you need some noodles or drinks. There are washrooms and shower rooms on each floor. But the shared bath area is big and very comfortable.

Wonderful experience! Stayed in a First Class Cabin, which had enough space for my full-sized suitcase, and I stored my backpack in the locked drawer under the bed. The room also felt secure since we were given access cards to enter the section with for our cabin (so nobody would be able to enter another section). The hotel had all the amenities you could need at the front desk or in the room. Capsules, restrooms, washing machines/dryers, and public baths were all clean! Location was perfect for access to the subway and train lines.

PERFECT location, easy to access Nankai(to KIX), Kintetsu(to Nagoya, Nara or Shima), Hanshin(to Kobe) and Osaka subway. PERFECT shopping area, included 2 Don Quijote, Takashimaya and "tons of" duty free stories. PERFECT eating options, both Japanese local cuisine or fast food chains, Asian, Western, even Michelin stars. Big rooms as capsule standard. Lockers for shoes and your room; there're safe near the counter.
