Guest Reviews

• Maria Francesca (9/5): -
• Hannah (8/5): Cultural and exciting. - Property was amazing! It looked great and was so fun to stay in. The only issue we had is that you couldn’t cast your device to the TV.
• Remy (9/5): -
• 이제광 (9/5): - 일본식 다다미 감성 느끼고 싶으면 추천, 거실도 일본 숙박집 치곤 넓음, 청소잘됨, 깔끔함 방음이 안됨
• Judith (9/5): It’s a wonderful property with great amenities and helpful customer service, but it isn’t for everyone. Please do your r - For two average sized individuals with big luggage, the one bedroom apartment at Harper House was exceptional. The apartment was very spacious and had most of the amenities you can think of. There was plenty of space to store your luggage, the futons and comforters were very comfortable after a long day out, and every other room served its purpose. We were extremely thankful for the large trash bin, seeing as most accommodations in Japan have a teeny tiny bin that barely fits a bento meal. Not to mention the building owners and cleaning staff, who were super duper helpful with concerns and offered solutions when any arised despite not physically being in the property. We were very happy with our accommodation at Harper House! The apartment does get very hot during the day despite the AC unit and fan. Fortunately, opening the balcony door helped a lot. Our only other problem, which is completely our fault, is not doing a lot of research on the location - which we did not like. The apartment building is located in a quiet residential area populated by the senior community and smokers. There is a nearby train station, but it takes about 20-30 minutes to get to any of the “notable” spots in Osaka. Not to mention the heavy traffic of bicycle riders who don’t ride on the properly labeled bicycle lanes of the sidewalk/street so you’re in constant fear of running into them if you’re not a local. It was very tough commuting through the neighborhood as a result. I also wanted to clarify some notable mentions I saw on the reviews for the property: if you’re a family of four, you probably won’t fit comfortably in the apartments so a different accommodation might be necessary. Japan apartments are very small, and so are Japanese people. The stairways are narrow, so no, there is no elevator and if you’re in the third floor you will have to haul your luggage down on your own. The walls and flooring are not soundproof, so you will hear footsteps, conversations, and even vacuuming through the walls - please keep this in mind if you’re a light sleeper or prefer a more quiet accommodation. Not everyone is having a “party” upstairs, they’re allowed to walk from one corner to another. Read the description of the property, read other reviews, look at the images, calculate square footage, look at Google maps, inquire. It’s a wonderful property but it definitely isn’t for everyone.
• Mikser (10/5): -
• Cecile (10/5): - Tout pour un premier séjour a Osaka
• Greta (10/5): -
• Cody (10/5): - Quiet tucked away with an added bonus of in room washer/dryer. A great option if you do not mind 20 minutes to the big sites. The "unstaffed" model is interesting but works fine. For the price, it was great.
• Ann (7/5): Peaceful and spacious room! - Location was great, near the train station and close to the city as well. Near grocery shops and restaurants. The room itself was very nice, and we will definitely book here again if we visit Japan again. The hotel gave us some bath salt as well. Please be aware that luggage transport will not be forwarded here. It was a nightmare navigating how to get my luggage back again, but we also did not communicate with the hotel, so maybe the result will be different if you contact them first? Other than that, it was absolutely fantastic!
• Nicole (10/5): Great place to stay in Osaka - We loved the traditional feel of the place. We especially enjoyed opening the balcony door in the morning and enjoying the rain/breeze while lying in bed.
• pavlo (10/5): -
• Aikunim (10/5): Отличный вариант❤️ - Нам понравилось все, очень уютно, очень чисто, четкие указания по заселению. Мы реально наслаждались остановкой в этом жилье. Расположение рядом со станцией метро.
• Kutzner (9/5): - Bien équipé Près du métro
• Diogo (10/5): -
• Antoine (10/5): -
• Joshua (9/5): -
• Kai Lin (8/5): Comforting and nice stay for 3 days - Good cleanliness, spacious and comfortable for 2 people. It’s also in a quiet and safe location in a great neighbourhood. It’s also a convenient walk to the train station, where there will be 3 convenience stores on the way. There was no lift access, difficult to carry heavy luggage up, especially when our room was at the third level.
• Florian (7/5): - Appartement très propre, bien équipé et très jolie Trop brouillant les voisins du dessus tourner en rond jusqu’à 3h du matin
• Natalie (10/5): - Well equipped self-contained apartment, compact but ideally located about 7-8mins from the nearest JR stations. Peaceful neighbourhood with two konbini in very close proximity. Futon beds weren't that comfortable for us - I slept better night 2 when I stacked two mattresses (which we could do as we were a family of 3)
• Guest (9/5): -
• laurie (9/5): - Les kimonos mis à disposition. Bien placé. Propre. Un peu petit pour 4. Futons un peu trop minces.
• Heather (7/5): - Clean No coffee, better locations
• Nadine (10/5): Bester Aufenthalt im Japan Urlaub - Die Unterkunft war sauber, komfortabel, viel Platz und ruhig. Es war alles da, was man brauchte Nichts
• Dominic (10/5): -
• Leonardo (10/5): -
• Maria Chiara (9/5): -
• Liam (8/5): -
• AMELIA FLORENCIA (3/5): FLOJO - no hay ascensor solo futones , no ascensor
• Nathalie (10/5): -
• Bowen (10/5): Ideal location, & perfect house! - Perfect location! Not in the hussle and bussle of the city but only 20 mins into the central station and within walking distance to the stations Wasn’t much storage space for 4 people, which might be a problem for some. But wasn’t much of an issue for me
• Keen (10/5): - Not far from station. Convenience store close by
• Cri (10/5): - Casa tradizionale con tutti i comfort
• Tobias (10/5): -
• Po-An (9/5): -
• Patricia (9/5): - Simplicité et aspect traditionnel en ayant les équipements modernes Proche du métro Futon peu épais Pas de mode d'emploi en anglais pour le chauffage
• Roberta (10/5): -
• Shao-Ting (10/5): -
• Dominique (10/5): Super Unterkunft - Die Wohnung war sehr schön und sauber. Alle Orte sind einfach mit der U-Bahn zu erreichen. Nichts, war super.
• vanessa (9/5): - Tout! Le calme du quartier, les équipements, la proximité de plusieurs lignes de métro, le supermarché juste en face. Rien :)
• TaeHyun (10/5): -
• Tse Lin (8/5): -
• Solenne P. (10/5): Super petit appartement - L’appartement était top et on a pu poser nos bagages plus tôt ☺️ Nous sommes arrivés dans une maison froide c'est pas grave car nous avons chauffé après mais c'est vraiment pour dire quelque chose
• huihui (8/5): 满分10的话，我给8分 - 地理位置非常不错，去心斋桥、梅田、天下茶屋地铁线等都很近，附近有711便利店 榻榻米上有上一个住户留下的毛发，还有一些别的不干净的东西
• Suzy (9/5): - Lovely space with comfy futon, great shower and handy washing machine. Location was quiet and local which was appreciated after a few hectic days. It was a cold spell and the apartment did feel cold at times. There was a space heater provided but it cooled down quickly as soon as it was switched off.
• yu chia (10/5): -
• Andrej (9/5): - Tradicionalni smještaj i jako interesantno iskustvo. Premala kuhinja
• Matteo (8/5): -
• xiaocun (9/5): nice stay in Osaka - location is convenient and apt is very clean, modern equipped. perhaps apt is for 2 people, for 4 a bit too small
• 和輝 (9/5): -
• Sarah (10/5): Tolles Ryokan, viel Platz - Eine eigene kleine Wohnung in Osaka! So viel Platz waren wir während unserer Japanreise gar nicht gewöhnt. Zwei Zimmer, Tatamimatten, kleine Küche, gutes Badezimmer mit kleiner Wanne. Check In über Code, kein Kontakt zu Angestellter.
• Wesley (9/5): Charming traditional home in a convenient location. - The location is very convenient, a short walk away from multiple train lines. There is also a grocery store and convenience stores nearby. The apartment itself was comfortable and as expected based on the pictures. The self-check-in process is streamlined and hassle-free. My group really appreciated that there were traditional garments available to wear. The apartment did not have any convenient place to store luggage. With three travelers (all with bags), the room was a little crowded once all the futons were laid out.
• Marta (10/5): Una vera casa Giapponese - Una vera abitazione giapponese, con tutti i comfort, ci sono asciugamani, ciabatte e shampoo, ballavamo e bagno schiuma. Tutto perfetto
• Tom (8/5): -
• Heiko Vollmer (7/5): - To small for 4 Persons
• Cora Spring (9/5): -
• Stephanie (10/5): -
• Ruby (10/5): A family of 4 adults gets to play and enjoy a beautiful ryokan! - The ryokan was impeccably clean and well organized, anticipating the needs of its guests well with clear instructions using labeled photos for how to operate the different amenities - AC/heating, washing machine, water heater, lighting, bidet use, etc..the simplicity of the ryokan renders an elegant experience of ‘living Japanese’, however brief. My family (4 of us) enjoyed our stay and the closeness a small space can provide when in good company. The small balcony even has a garden that is welcoming. Location was good, easy to get to, in a quiet neighbourhood with a grocery store nearby and a variety of cafes & restaurants to choose from. Communication from the host was clear and prompt.
• Barbara (10/5): Muy bien - Todo, habia de todo, secador, microondas, lavadora… El futon maravilloso! Faltaba una cortina en la ventana del salon.
• Rosa (10/5): Una estada fantàstica - Un espacio impecable y muy bien cuidado. Sin duda un alojamiento muy recomendable. Repetiría in dudarlo. No soy capaz de encontrar ningún fallo.
• Vikrant (10/5): Absolutely beautiful - It is very beautifully setup. Traditional Japanese style. Sleeping on the floor was very therapeutic. We all enjoyed that. Eating while sitting on the floor also very good and takes you back in time . A thoroughly enjoyable experience. All was good. Nothing to complain about.
• FabiusMen (9/5): - Stile giapponese Poco spaziosa per 4
• Santeri (10/5): -
• Weronika (10/5): -
• Vangelina (8/5): A pleasant stay - Very quiet neighborhood! Far enough from other stays that it felt like a "local" area. Near two stations that could pretty much get you anywhere. Also the pathway towards it, has lots of convenience stores nearby if a pick me up is needed Will admit after a long day the 8 min walk is rough
• Changhoon (10/5): I would say it is perfect and I want to visit again - The location, interior design, all I can imagine is good. There was some dirt on the air conditioner when I turned it on to heat the room.
• Isabella (10/5): - Great place to stay! Well equipped bedroom, kitchen, living and bathroom. Location wasn’t super central but still very close to the city!
• Sophie (10/5): Super logement je recommande - Magnifique logement de type traditionnel, très propre et spacieux
• Jan (10/5): -
• Toma (9/5): -
• Nazia (10/5): Was a really nice ryokan experience, nicely laid out and beautifully decorated place. - Was a really nice ryokan experience, nicely laid out and beautifully decorated place. Self check in was very easy. The house yukata were a lovely touch as well as the bath salts.
• Jessica (8/5): -
• 沛霖 (10/5): - 地點方便，乾淨整齊，可以煮食洗衣，旁邊有超市超級方便
• Anna-Maria (10/5): Tänne tulisin uudestaankin, jos matkustan Osakaan. - Todella siisti, aito japanilainen kokemus ja kaikki tarpeellinen asunnossa. Sijainti oli hyvä, sillä sekä juna- että metroasema aivan lähellä, ja ruokakaupat, ravintolat ja muut palvelut ihan vieressä.
• beauvois (10/5): - Le logement est super beau et propre, il y a de la place et il est très bien situé.
• Yaël (7/5): Bon séjour, l’appartement est bien situé dans un quartier calme mais non loin des animations de Osaka en métro - L’appartement était fonctionnel et bien placé, facile d’accès. Il est un peu petit pour un groupe de 4 adultes avec chacune une valise. La lessive n’est pas fourni avec la machine à laver le linge et l’option de séchage n’a pas fonctionné.
• Bindi (9/5): Loved our stay at Harper house. Spotless and had everything we needed! - We really enjoyed staying at Harper house and liked the location being out of the main city. Lots of nice cafes, shops and train station nearby. Very quiet, spacious and comfortable which was great after a big day out.
• Sarah (6/5): - Smaller than one would think when booking.
• Bart (9/5): - The stylefull apartments at a great location The upper neighbors of the last night
• Quentin (9/5): -
• Reston (10/5): Great stay and close to subways! - Great traditional style place n/a
• Anne-Lise (10/5): Agréable séjour dans cet appartement - Appartement disposant de tout le confort, spacieux, au calme avec beaucoup de charme et proche de toutes les commodités. Rien
• Amizan (10/5): Amazing!! - Everything. They also provide home yukata for everyone so it was fun to try them. All the necessities are prepared more that number of people. Near to tengachaya station so can go to dotanburi and other osaka places easier. For muslims, theres no restaurant halal nearby. But 7E and Lawson are both near I thought there’s two rooms but only one actually, not suitable for two couples
• Andrés Eduardo (9/5): Fast perfekt (wenn Leute in den anderen Zimmern rücksichtsvoller wären) - Die Wände waren Schaldurchlässig und daher am Abend sehr laut. Es ist natürlich etwas Glück dabei, ob die anderen Personen in den Zimmern drumherum laut sind oder eher Rücksicht auf ihren Mitmenschen nehmen.
• Kinda (7/5): - Appartement style japonais agréable. A noter qu’il s’agit d’un self check-in et check-out. Peut être un peu cher
• Berit Ulrike (10/5): Optimal zum Eintauchen in die japanische Kultur - Es War so authentisch, minimalistisch, japanisch, gemütlich - Entspannte Atmosphäre :) Sehr gute Infrastruktur
• Gabrielle (8/5): - We loved the beds and the bathroom. We didn't use the kitchen but it looked nice. Having a fridge was helpful. The washing machine was a little hard to use but that could have just been us. Drying the clothes was ok. Barely fit 4 futons on the floor but it was alright.
• Clara (9/5): Molt autèntic, còmode i pràctic - Ryokan autèntic. Et deixen els kimonos. Està net, molt a prop de dues estacions de tren i metro, t’explica tot en anglès. I facilitats per l’equipatge. Edredons molt gruixuts. Tot i tenir l’aire condicionat a estones feia calor al futon.
• Antje (10/5): Traditionelles Leben - Unser Aufenthalt in Osaka war zwar kurz, jedoch vollkommen zufriedenstellend. Wir übernachteten in einem bezaubernden, traditionellen Hotel und verbrachten eine angenehme Zeit. Eine Weiterempfehlung an Interessenten wird hiermit ausgesprochen. -
• Romain (10/5): - Très bien placé, extrêmement bien équipé, très propre et très joli.
• Arthur (9/5): -
• Philippe (7/5): -
• Anne-Franziska (10/5): Authentisches Japan-Erlebnis - Stilvoll eingerichtet, sehr sauber, super Ausstattung, alles Notwendige vorhanden ruhig, verkehrsgünstig gelegen, sehr gute Einkaufsmöglichkeiten für Lebensmittel, nettes Stadtviertel
• Paul Jonas (8/5): -
• Dorothee (7/5): - wir hatten eine Wohnung mit kleiner Küche, alles automatisiert. Die Eingangstüre wurde automatisch verriegelt, wenn wir in der Wohnung waren und per Knopf konnte sie geöffnet werden. Alles sehr gut gesichert. Es war gemütlich und das Schlafen, sitzen und essen auf dem Boden war überraschend gemütlich. Das Gebäude und die Gegend war einfach.
• Pauline (9/5): - Quite big for Japan, self check-in and check-out went smoothly. Subway close by. Nice bathroom and laundry equipment. Still 30 minutes away from most activities, but wasn't a big issue for us
• Kévin (10/5): Impeccable ! - Super logement avec tout ce dont on a besoin . Dans un style japonais qu’on a beaucoup apprécié. Il est proche de tout ! Que ce soit plusieurs le métro , konbini, supermarché et même des restaurants !
• Michał (10/5): - Mieliśmy w Japonii 5 noclegów. Ten był ostatni i był najlepszy ze wszystkich, klimat stricte japoński. Bardzo dobrze wyposażony. Blisko metro i pociąg do lotniska KIX. Lawson 2 minuty. Ramen 5-10 minut. Super miejscówka. Polecam !
• Mona (8/5): - Location, cleanliness, amenities. The pillows were quite hard
• kristina (10/5): Great and comfortable stay - Spotless and very clean. Great facilities, convenient location near the station, Lawson, and 7-Eleven. Comfortable tatami to sleep on and a nice bathtub to relax in. Highly recommended! Nothing
