North Osaka Beach Vacations

Our family of three really enjoyed our stay at MONday Apartment Hotel. There was plenty of space for the three of us and all our luggage (three large suitcases and three smaller bags). Beds were luxury firm and supportive. I especially appreciated the kitchenette, which allowed me to prepare simple breakfasts for the family each morning. There were also several convenience stores and a supermarket nearby with everything we needed. The location was good overall, although it was about a 7–10 minute walk to the nearest subway station, which could feel a little tiring after a long day of sightseeing. There also weren’t many restaurants within a five-minute walk, and it was about half a mile to the nearest family-friendly restaurant, such as Yayoi-Ken. We really liked the neighborhood’s hip, slightly hidden-gem feel, with independent coffee shops and bakeries tucked away in the surrounding streets. Kiyomizu-dera was also within walking distance, at roughly a 20-minute walk. The room itself was great, but my main complaint was an unpleasant, dirty-water smell coming from both the shower drain and the washing machine. The unit combines a washer and dryer, and the hotel provides detergent. The detergent worked well for our clothes, and we had no issues with skin irritation. However, the dryer was a different story. Although the clothes smelled fine after washing, using the dryer seemed to bake the smell into them. I just hung dry afterwards and didn’t use the dryer.

Really enjoyed our stay. A little way from Gion, but handy for the main station and the train to Gion is very easy.

Really cute hotel, definitely will be staying here again if I ever come back! Friendly staff, good free breakfast. Only a 3 minutes walk from a train station

Great English speaking staff with beautiful rooms. We booked last minute for one night and got a free upgrade. The view of the lake and city is gorgeous. I would recommend staying here for comfort.

It depends why you are in Osaka its pretty and there are two metros nearby, Osaka Castle is across the as is au big venue but to get to other places you spend time and it gets tiring. Food was ok, the bar on the roof was lovely and staff really helpful. It’s an expensive taxi to the airport. The shuttle only goes in the morning. There is nowhere to sit and relax if you have a late flight. Reception & concierge were very kind and refrigerated my food gifts.

Excellent staff, breakfast and lounge. However, the location wasn’t the best.

Great location, very clean and spacious rooms, helpful and polite staff. The hotel is located right on the Shinsaibashi area which was super conviennent. The hotel also offered a rooftop lounge area that only guests could access and had free all-day coffee and snacks - a perk we took advantage of after too much shopping.
