About this stay
Warm up in your own electric outdoor sauna, cool down in a private Japanese garden, and end the day with a movie on the tatami. A house that sleeps eight, four minutes from Dobutsuen-mae Station — Shinsekai, Tsutenkaku Tower, Spa World and the zoo are all a short walk, and Tennoji Station is close by. The whole house is yours, with no shared spaces. Level 1: a spacious entrance, full kitchen and dining, a tatami lounge with projector (two double futons), bathroom, toilet, the garden with its outdoor sauna, and a washing machine. Level 2: two bedrooms, each with a double bed. Group-ready extras include a takoyaki hot plate, rice cooker and free pocket Wi-Fi. The neighbourhood is lively, authentic local Osaka — izakayas and markets right outside the door, with Tennoji Park and Shinsekai within easy walking distance.
What guests say
Airbnb guest reviews · rating as of September 2026 · some translated by us
Great place. Clean and had everything we needed. Very close to the station.
We really enjoyed our stay. The location was great, just an easy walk to Shinsekai with lots of great food and plenty to see nearby. The sauna was such a nice bonus and the perfect way to relax after a day out. The host was great to communicate with the whole time. We'd definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone visiting Osaka.
One of the best stays I've had in Japan. The private outdoor sauna was the highlight — after exploring Osaka, coming back to our own sauna felt amazing, and watching movies on the projector at night made it even more special. A beautiful traditional Japanese house, stylishly renovated and super comfortable, a short walk to tons of restaurants, cafes and the station.
