The breakfast is an absolute highlight. Traditional Japanese style with miso, rice and fish. The room was beautiful with traditional Japanese interior: Tatami-floor, low table, kimono and futon mattresses on the floor The ryokan itself is not the newest, and doesn't look modernised or fancy at all. I guess the bathroom, kitchen and interior is from the 80's or 90's. But it's calm, spacy and clean, and the staff are friendly and helpful. We were travelling as a couple. Imazato Ryokan was definitely one of the best places we stayed during our 3 weeks in Japan. The neighborhood is a quiet residencial area. No tourists around, but still very easy to reach in walking distance from Imazato subway station. Please be respectful and friendly :)

Excellent traditional Japanese ryokan experience, for those looking for one! It is family owned, and they are extremely friendly and nice. You get to stay in a pretty spacious traditional Japanese style room, wear kimono and sleep on the tatami while still having the comfort of a private bathroom. Breakfast is also prepared by them, and for those who enjoy Japanese food, having your breakfast traditionally prepared by a local is an amazing experience! The place is in a quiet residential neighborhood, with easy and surprisingly fast access to the center (Dotonbori) via public transportation. It was by far the best experience is Osaka for us, and one of the most authentic we had in Japan! Would definitely stay here again if we were going to Osaka!

Honestly, the whole experience was great, we liked everything!

The perfect stay for a first night in Japan! The staff were incredibly kind and helpful. After a late flight delay, I arrived really late, well after 1 AM, and the staff waited for me throughout the night while helping as much as they could by communicating directions, tips, and information via Booking.com. The location was excellent. The accommodation is situated in a quiet, charming, and traditional neighborhood, with the subway just a few minutes walk away. The interior was spotless, spacious, and well-equipped. The room was in traditional Japanese style, which was everything I had hoped for. Everything made me feel at home and truly enjoy my stay. 素晴らしい滞在をありがとうございました！

Homemade breakfast was tasty and had a nice presentation. The interior was spacious, yet cozy. My single room had a lovely traditional style with a cathedral shaped ceiling and two windows. I could adjust the brightness of the lights. The toilet and shower was outside of the room, but it was nice and clean. The bathroom had a separate shower area and bathtub onsen. The staff was very hospitable and helpful during my stay. I didn't speak or understand much Japanese, so they used a device to translate their response to me. They alsobwent out of their way to help me find my phone, which I appreciated very much!

The Ryokan seems to be managed by a family, which gives it a sense of authenticity. The staff was really friendly. The check in can be done late in the evening. The location is close to the metro and is located in a nice residential area, which makes it interesting if you want to move away from the noisy part of the city and get to see how people really live. The breakfast was super complete and served fresh. I would totally recommend this place if you want to experience staying at a Ryokan.

The facility had a bit of a smell of mold or humidity, but it's completely understandable since it is probably an old building.

Very convenient and safe location, just 4 stations from Namba on the Sennichimae line, and about 5 minutes from Imazato station. Breakfast was fantastic and hand prepared by the friendly owners with unlimited rice with furikake toppings. Sometimes, it would be salmon, other times croquette. Yukata in the rooms were also provided. Tatami rooms were very spacious with bathtub. Futons were so comfortable with many blankets provided, good especially in winter. One of the highlights was the heated multi functional toilet seat! The ceiling lamp could be adjusted to different lighting requirements with just one click.

Nothing

The staff were great, the breakfast was hardy and wholesome with how nutritious it was. Gives you energy to last well into the late morning. The location was ok. Doesn’t take too long to get to the centre of the action in Osaka via subway. I dock minimal points because there was I shirt I wanted ironed and they didn’t have an iron. Always helps to have one just in case. The bedding was unsupportive for the hips making it painful to sleep on my sides.

Lovely little property with good location and great staff! It was everything you would expect of a budget ryokan, such as tatami mats, futon beds and yukata. There isn’t an onsen, naturally, but they do have a heated bath.

As far as I could tell, there was only one shower/bath on the property, although I only had to wait for it to be free once. Also, the futons were very comfortable, but I would have preferred the option of a softer pillow, as the ones provided were rather hard

I liked the homeliness of the place, which is operated by a family. The room I was in was very good with everything I needed. I was able to do my laundry, and even though there is no dryer I could dry my clothing with the hangers provided. Breakfast is an option if you want to experience a Japanese breakfast, and every day is different.

The location is not far from a subway line and train station, but they are not JR and you need to make a transfer or two if you want to reach the main sights in Osaka or around the Kansai region. The duvet of the futon was only 5 ft long, which made it harder for me to sleep as someone not accustomed to it being smaller than me.

The traditional room with tatami and futons was spacious and there were plenty of extra blankets, and a low table with cushions. The kitchen was well equipped with a big fridge, and a cooktop, great if you want to cook something during your stay. The breakfast was really good.

The toilet floor was wet when we arrived and it was accumulating water in a part of it after showers. There were slippers for us to use in there, so it was manageable.
