Staying here for seven nights was a fantastic experience. The hotel is incredibly close to Shin-Osaka Station—just a short walk away, making commuting super convenient.

One of the little touches I really appreciated was the pajamas: I left them casually on the bed, and when I returned, they were neatly folded and waiting—such a thoughtful gesture. The soundproofing is excellent; apart from some train noise early in the morning and late at night, it’s very quiet. If you're a light sleeper, you might notice that, but overall it didn’t disrupt my rest. For solo travelers seeking comfort, convenience, and a clean, welcoming atmosphere, this is an ideal choice. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Osaka.

The hotel isn’t directly next to the station, but it’s a comfortable walk—no hassle at all. I drove there, so having convenient and affordable parking was a big plus. The check-in process required using a tablet to notify staff, which took me by surprise at first, as I wasn’t expecting that step. I was also slightly surprised to find a washing machine placed on what looked like a very narrow balcony—space-wise, it felt a bit tight, but it worked. Overall, the furniture and amenities were in good condition, clean, and practical. The room felt spacious enough and very comfortable to stay in. What really stood out was how close the hotel is to a family mart and a convenience store—perfect for grabbing snacks or essentials late at night.

I stayed at Shin Osaka Washington Hotel Plaza and was really impressed overall. The room was spacious, clean, and had modern amenities—everything felt fresh and well-maintained. The location was perfect since I needed to catch the Shinkansen the next day from Shin-Osaka Station; it’s just a short walk away, which made my travel plans super convenient. That said, there isn’t much shopping or dining around the hotel if you’re looking for a lively area. The only downside was the noise from the nearby train tracks—especially at night, it felt like sleeping on a moving train. I’d recommend bringing earplugs if you’re sensitive to sound. Despite that, the value for money was excellent, and the convenience of the location easily outweighed the minor issue. I’d definitely stay here again when visiting Osaka.

I was able to store my luggage in advance before check-in—just make sure to let the hotel know ahead of time.

There are at least three Family Mart stores nearby, plus one Lawson—perfect for grabbing snacks or essentials. You can also reach Shin-Osaka JR Station easily on foot, making it super convenient for train travel across Osaka and beyond. The room itself is compact, as expected for a typical Japanese hotel, but everything was clean, well-maintained, and comfortable. It’s a solid choice if you’re looking for convenience, cleanliness, and good value.

The Hotel Claiton Shin-Osaka is an excellent choice for travelers looking for convenience and cleanliness. Located just a 5-minute walk from the M14 station on the red line, it's super easy to find—exit through Gate 2, pass the convenience store, and keep going straight. Don’t forget to return your key at check-out; you’ll need to pick it up again when you return.

On the ground floor, there's a cozy café area with coffee, light snacks, and even a quiet reading nook with books—perfect for relaxing before or after a long day. The room itself was spacious for the price, clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with modern amenities. My only tip? Make sure to exit Shin-Osaka Station from the main front entrance (Exit 10), turn left at the crosswalk, walk about 10 meters, cross under the overpass via the pedestrian crossing, then follow the sidewalk through a small tunnel—emerge right in front of the hotel. Getting off at the wrong exit could mean extra walking, so pay attention. I’ve stayed at several hotels near Shin-Osaka before, but this one truly stands out for its value, cleanliness, and thoughtful touches. If you're looking for a reliable, stress-free base in central Osaka, this is definitely the top pick.

The bed was incredibly comfortable, making it easy to fall asleep and enjoy a restful night. The only minor drawback was that no bottled water was provided in the room, which meant having to buy one from the convenience store nearby—slightly inconvenient but not a dealbreaker. Location-wise, it’s perfect for travelers: just steps away from the station, with quick access to downtown Osaka and Umeda. Clean, well-maintained, and great value for money. I’d definitely choose this hotel again on my next visit to Osaka.
