Guest Reviews
- Savannah (10/5): - Great Location, Friendly and helpful staff
- Prithiraj (10/5): - Place was clean and the room was cozy. Front desk was very helpful in accommodating us with our late check in and forwarding luggage to the next hotel
- Darryn (10/5): - Great room - clean, modern and quiet. Really helpful and friendly staff. Really nice outdoor terrace on ground floor. Easy access to metro stations, 7-Eleven and food options. Would definitely stay again.
- Mercedes (10/5): - Yes the AC was great
- Ka Lai (10/5): - The staff were very friendly, and the check-in process was smooth. The location was also excellent, and the room temperature was pleasantly cool. However, the pillowcase was visibly dirty and was not replaced even after the room was cleaned. In addition, during my five-night stay, slippers were not proactively provided.
- Katie (8/5): - Lovely central location, rooftop terrace is gorgeous and free beer daily at the ground floor bar with dj’s. Amenities of the hotel are fantastic. Let down by the room design as there is no wardrobe and the beds are too low to fit suitcases under so our room was an absolute disaster zone with stuff everywhere as there is no where to put anything away. Also the bathroom is this weird part of the bedroom rather than being a room in its own right. Bed super comfy and shower nice and powerful. So top marks for everything except the room design
- Araceli (10/5): - There's was shopping stores all around and way more within 5 to 8 min in the metro. The hotel was beautiful, quite and modern. Rooms were clean and had a great cooling AC. Food in the restaurant downstairs was delicious. Staff was absolutely wonderful. A must stay in
- Lelannia (8/5): - Beautiful and modern hotel. The rooms are tight but super clean and the DJ and bars are amazing! We enjoyed the free tea and coffee so much! Great stay!
- Luis (10/5): - Room service wasn’t great, everything else was really good. Close to convenience stores and train stations.
- chris (10/5): - Easy to get train from here great hotel
- Sherri (10/5): - Friendly staff. Rooms were comfortable
- Rosie (10/5): Great Tokyo stay - The breakfast was great. King bed room was spacious for a Tokyo room. Clean room, loved the separate toilet room from shower and bathtub. Great walking distance from subway, perfect distance for a quick cab ride to main train station for a Kyoto day trip. Would stay here again.
- Vershonda (10/5): - Great chain
- Prasanth (10/5): - It was a warm and comfortable experience
- Raymond (10/5): - Excellent experience overall. Would not hesitate to book here if we come back to Osaka.
- Aaron (10/5): - This is an excellent hotel for an Osaka stay. It is located in a great area with a fantastic supermarket down the road and the closest metro stop a couple minutes walk away. The breakfasts are great and a real highlight of the morning. The hotel is trendy and comfortable with a great amount of space in the room.
- Katie (8/5): - Good links to transport. Nice breakfast but wasn’t really a continental breakfast, more Japanese style. Friendly staff. Lovely rooftop bar.
- Stephen (10/5): - Great hotel good breakfast decent room At check in they offer you a voucher to not get your room cleaned. We were there for 3 nights and on reflection I wouldn’t have taken the voucher it was equivalent to one free beer
- John (10/5): - Great place. Staff was very nice and it’s close to many things
- Lester (8/5): - Staff was good and I love music and free beer
- Lester (8/5): - It was safe good music good free beers
- Pierre -Aryel (8/5): - Very nice hotel near subway Main Street so convenient and the room are nice but the main problem is the place to hanging your clothes it’s really limited and in big screen room is no existing other than that comfortable hotel and bed !
- Garrett (10/5): - Very cool, hip, place. Gorgeous rooms and great facilities. Rooftop bar/lounge, free beer at happy hour, convenient to many metro lines, walkable to nightlife. Excellent location, if only a bit commercial. Will definitely stay there again!!
- Tony (10/5): - Staff were excellent and helped us tremendously. The rooms were spacious and every night they had a different DJ from 6-7. It was fun and had a great vibe to the hotel. Made us feel like we were there for more than just to sleep.
- jeremy (10/5): - Nice Bed, free beer, coupons, friendly staff.
- Nick (4/5): - This hotel represented poor value, with small/basic rooms, very poor breakfast and very limited daily supply refreshments. On the plus side, the rooftop bar was nice and the free beer in the evening was welcome. This hotel compared very poorly with the other hotels we stayed at in Tokyo and Kyoto on the same trip.
- Louise Lee (10/5): The hotel was fun modern trendy and lively with DJ - The hotel was as good as I have read about. The room was clean and modern and it was fun and happy with DJ and Happy Hour each day enjoying a cold beer. The staff was service minded and helpful and good at English. It was just 20 min from Dotonburi. I would stay there again. I give my best recommendation.
- Eliza (8/5): - This hotel is very close to the subway station, 2 mins away. The 7/11 is even closer. The property is clean with friendly staff. It’s very convenient if you plan to go to Osaka Expo 2025, only hop on one subway line, no transfer needed. Also, using one line via a few stops you could easily go to Dotonburi. I would recommend this hotel because of its location.
- John (10/5): - Friendly staff and free beer.
- Julie (10/5): - Great hotel a little away from the main area but in between Umeda and Dotonburi/Namba. Modern, clean and extremely spacious rooms.
- Seyed Shahab (8/5): - It was a good family friend hotel. Lots of amenities and in house activities.
- Hugo (10/5): - good
- Krista (10/5): - Cool hotel in a great area. Enjoyed our short stay
- KAO CHIANG (10/5): 休閒方便 - 離地鐵堺筯本町站很近,服務人員親切,房間乾淨,二樓有免費網路咖啡等飲品可以使用 到附近商圈購物方便,離木津市塲只要一站就到很方便.
- Naomi (8/5): - This hotel is super conveniently located, two blocks from subway. The room was nice, clean, spacious and smartly designed. The staff was pleasant with check in, although funny they apparently wanted a self check in with use of QR code that I never received, but they checked me without incident. Minor point, there is quite a bit of advertisement regarding free beer, but it is only available between 6 and 7. I came down at 7:15 and told it was unavailable. Funny, I would have never expected it except for the advertising
- janina (8/5): - The property is modern and well equipped. It has a nice bar with wonderful staff and lovely seating area with a view. The lounge was perfect for coffee or space to warm up food and eat. Pool table and outdoor table with fire feature.
- Le (8/5): - Good location If you do not want to resident too close to the center area.
- LITSE (10/5): - Everything was good. Except when I entered the room there’s a humid smell. I had to turn on the AC strong to not smell the humidity. It didn’t smell good when I entered. However the room is clean.
- Nitania (10/5): - Centrally located. Nice size rooms.
- Jia (8/5): - Great location for exploring Osaka!
- Joann (10/5): - Great hotel with amazing perks.
- Lanore (10/5): - The design of the lobby and restaurant was attractive, the room was clean and well designed. The window shades were "blackout" and the room very quiet and comfortable. Staff was helpful. The location was great-a short walk to trains. The neighborhood was quiet and clean with convenience stores, grocery stores and a laundromat nearby.
- Lesley (10/5): Great stay - well handy for the Metro - Amazing hotel . Check in was easy. I liked the staff - very friendly. We were give 2 x 500 yen vouchers just because we didn’t need our room being serviced in our 3 day stay . Bought up 2 free drinks😊 The rooms were lovely and far more spacious than all our other hotels. Nice roof terrace.
- Wing Sze Wincy (10/5): - Very modern. Spacious. Clean. Staff is very helpful and friendly. Room is very comfortable. Bed is very big and comfortable.
- Natasha (10/5): - The Lively is a really funky hotel in Hommachi - ideally located on intersecting metro lines which makes getting around the city really easy. We arrived early and were able to store our bags and hang out in the many communal areas and enjoy free coffee while we waited for our room to be ready. The room was super comfortable and the amenities bar was great if you run out of toothpaste or need cotton buds etc. Breakfast was very tasty but was limited in comparison to other places we stayed in Japan - it isn’t a buffet and you can only have a limited amount of food. The free beer is a nice touch in the evenings. Overall a great stay.
- Joan (4/5): - Property had the potential to be nicer. Rooms were fine but very minimal amenities. You are allowed to choose needed amenities near the reception desk but only two items. They prefer not to clean your room. They offer a 500 yen voucher at check in if you agree to not have your room cleaned, only refresh your towels. The voucher is for the restaurant or amenities to purchase. I chose to have our two rooms cleaned instead but they ended up only cleaning one of them. Breakfast selection was very limited and a bit odd. Overall, customer service was the main issue. Staff is rude and not very knowledgeable.
- Julie (10/5): - Delightful stay. Nice room and lots of options from the accessories/toiletry bar. nice breakfast. Near all the Osaka sites and close to transportation but quiet at night so could get plenty of sleep.
- Christianto (8/5): - Good location. Value for money.
- Mark (8/5): - The theatre rooms were so unique with their projection tvs and folding beds. They had some unique features like complimentary cafe and free late afternoon beer. Great vibe! Would definitely recommend.
- Antoine (10/5): - Clean, modern and comfortable. What more can you ask ? Oh yes… one block from the subway. The breakfast was not to my liking. But I survived.
- Claudia (6/5): - The hotel was good. It felt like a lot of effort was put into making the hotel very reliant on technology, i.e., there’s a QR code for that. Instead of talking you through the amenities, you were asked to watch a video. It was a good hotel for the one day we had there and its proximity to the train station.
- Simone (10/5): - A wonderful hotel outside the mayhem of Dontonbori but within easy walking distance. A number of train stations very close by also. The hotel was nice and room was spacious.
- Jenna (4/5): - Property looks fantastic but missed for me on some of the basics. Timely elevators, choice of food at breakfast, availability of advertised room service, etc. Probably fun for a younger crowd, but not for us.
- Viviana (10/5): - The hotel was clean, modern and stylish. I loved they they have a bar, for when we still wanted a drink but didn't want to go too far from our room.
- Silvia (6/5): - A mixed review of this hotel. The check in experience was somewhat confusing. The person checking us in told us that the hotel has 2 different kinds of cleaning service - a full service and an “eco” service where only the towels are changed. At no point were we asked which service we wanted, so we assumed we can decide each day (I should add that the person checking us in was not Japanese, so less change of potential communication issues). Lastly we were given some 500 yen vouchers to spend in the hotel. We wanted the full cleaning service, so the next morning we left the “please make up my room” sign on the door. When we got back late in the afternoon we discovered that our room had not been cleaned. When checking with reception, we were told we had chosen the “eco” cleaning option on check in. This was not true, we were never asked to choose between the 2 options on check in, it seems that an assumption was made on our behalf. Anyway, we had the cleaning option changed and on subsequent days our room was cleaned (sort of, see later comments). Cons of this hotel: - There is no safe in the room. At the price they are charging, there should be a safe. - We stayed on level 8, but the view from our room was that of air conditioning units on a neighbouring roof - not very scenic. - The “full” cleaning service is not very good and too basic. Pros: Location
- Kathleen (10/5): - We really enjoyed our stay. Clean, comfortable, quiet, and safe. Located in convenient area with lots of trains, restaurants and shopping.
- Gregory (8/5): - Ok property
- Julie (10/5): A recommander - Hotel parfaitement situé par rapport au métro. Personnel très accueillant et efficace (merci à Anna pour sa gentillesse) Chambre spacieuse et confortable Bière de bienvenue offert sur le rooftop! Bref je recommande cet établissement
- Kenneth (10/5): - Wild stay! Wish I had more time to explore all of the hotel amenities. Maybe next time!
- Esperanza (10/5): - Hotel was beautiful, chic. We had a lovely time in the lobby with the live DJ and free beer! Strongly recommend!
- Nathaniel (10/5): - Very clean and modern. The staff were all extremely courteous.
- susan (8/5): - A pleasant place to stay away from the noisy tourists but with lots of shops and restaurants. Friendly and helpful staff
- Lisa (10/5): - I am still unsure how this accommodation is 3-star! It would be 4.5 star is Australia. I could not fault it. The top floor bar was so beautiful - we spent each night in this space having drinks and substantial bar snacks - beautiful night time view. Comfortable beds and lovely bathrooms! The rooms were small but you know that when you are booking. Given you are not in your room much when you are travelling this is not an issue., especially with 5 other communal spaces in the hotel. I never leave reviews but I would highly recommend staying here!
- Kieran (8/5): Suitable for a few days - This hotel is in a good location. The room was quite small, especially the bed, but it was suitable for 3 nights. All the amenities are at the front desk instead of in your room which is a little inconvenient. There is a rental service for electrical items etc which was good. All in all, can’t complain.
- bronwyn (8/5): - The hotel itself was very cool. Great facilities like pool tables and common room with coffee, tea and snacks. Room was a good size for a family.
- Richard (10/5): - Good location. Quiet comfortable room. Excellent breakfast
- Gavin (10/5): Quality and comfort - Amazing hotel close to the action. Nothing to not recommend if you’re in the market for a quality stay.
- Arvind (10/5): - Excellent location, fantastic staff. Highly recommended
- Paul (10/5): - Places to see by the hotel
- Christiane (10/5): - We booked a corner king bed room and we were very surprised with the size of the room compared to other hotels in Tokyo. It was a very large room with a separate couch and desk area. It was enough space to open up a few luggage’s on the floor and still have plenty of space. It’s an open floor plan but the bathroom doors can close if you want. I think the only gripe for the room is that the toilet is far from the sink and shower (across the “entry” hallway from each other). Other than that it was an amazing room!!
- Jacob (8/5): - Overall, the hotel and the room was great; however, there was a ton of thick, long hair throughout my room. Anything that touched the floor has hair that would cling to it even after my room was cleaned. Other than that, the room was very clean. The beds are a bit firm but that seems to be common across Japan.
- Thomas (10/5): - Loved our stay at the LIVELY, rooms were decently sized, beds were comfy, bathrooms had everything we needed and the location is brilliant. We also really enjoyed all the free toiletries in the lobby area, super helpful. Highly recommended.
- Joshua (10/5): - Thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Lively Hommachi. Rooms were clean, bed was comfortable and the shower was good. Hotel staff were very helpful and even arranged our luggage to be transported onto our next hotel - for a fee of course. Drawbacks as follows; - rental items are a great idea but rely on people not renting items for their entire stay. If people returned items after using then everyone would get a turn. - normal for Japan but there was no cupboard space to unpack. The room could have benefited from under bed storage or boxes in the under sink unit. - no safe, in 2025 you should be able to expect a safe in the room. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend the Lively.
- Scott (10/5): - I loved the helpful staff and cleanliness of the rooms and hotel.
- SZU TAO (10/5): Good vibe - Lively hotel is a vibe. It’s got a stylish taste and a welcoming staff. Will come back again!
- Racheal (10/5): Highly recommend - Great quirky hotel, we had a cinema room that was Amazing!! The staff were fabulous and incredibly helpful Slightly outside of the district with bars etc. but only a short cab ride so no issue 😊
- Benjamin (10/5): - Great stay with good location!
- piyatida (8/5): - -
- Deanna (6/5): - A very hip, boutique kind of venue with music, DJ and free beer. Unfortunately the breakfast was not the best. Loved the recliner bed but they were so high on need a chair to help me get on up. Location of the kettle and fridge was not practical to the bathroom. The breakfast was different and felt more like a brunch. No alternative options for allergies. 7 eleven and lawsons close by.
- Trisha Ann Rosell (10/5): - Very close to sakaisuji hommachi station, 7-11, Lawson, and Starbucks. Free beer and food in the late evening. Delicious breakfast and dinner menu.
- aaron (10/5): - Things to do inside the hotel
- Peter (8/5): - Good hotel. Friendly staff with an excellent grasp of English. Hotel is clean and lots of eating options in the area. Free beer from 18:00 to 19:00 is a bonus. Highly recommended hotel.
- Timothy Philip (10/5): - My stay here was excellent.
- Quinn (10/5): - Super cool place with modern decor and rooftop bar. Love my stay
- Glenn (10/5): - It was a fun and unique hotel. The lounge area has a great energy ( free beer at 6 pm helps the vibe) and the roof top patio is nice too. Nice decor in room and breakfast was top notch and gourmet. Close to subway too ( 4 minute walk)
- Verified traveler (10/5): - トイレとシャワーが別なのはいいですね。 お部屋のデザインもよく、過ごしやすいです。 衛生面も何も問題なく、きれいです。
- Sunny (10/5): - Great hotel and friendly staff, highly recommended
- Rimmal (10/5): - The ambience and service of this hotel was amazing! I was please with the room size and the cleanliness of the room. It was a short walk (< 4 mins) to the closest station and we had a 7 eleven right next door. I would highly recommend this to everyone and will also look to here whenever I come back to Japan!
- Lisa (10/5): - Great place to stay. Room was very spacious and clean. Good location and close to the metro for travelling.
- Jenny (10/5): - Thank you so much to everyone at the Lively! So friendly, helpful and welcoming. A great location for exploring Osaka, with so many great restaurants near by. Hotel itself is brilliant- comfy bed, super clean. Great facilities. Love the live DJs in the bar in the evenings.
- Vix (10/5): - Great little hotel. Near to metro. Quiet with very helpful staff. Also there is fabulous places to eat just up the road. I would stay here again when in Osaka.
- Jessica (10/5): Faultless stay with a modern approach to hotelling - One of the best budget friendly hotels we stayed in during our trip. Really good amenities in the hotel with friendly and approachable staff. The concept of a free beer hour in the evening is a great way to meet other travellers and hear recommendations for what others and seen and done. Whilst not in a centrally tourist area, great transport links means you're never far away.
- Christopher (10/5): - Excellent Hotel
- Kimbereley (10/5): - Beautiful accommodations
- Saleena (10/5): - Amazing literally perfect wouldn't change a thing wow wow wow.... wow. In all seriousness, take the 2000yen if they offer. You won't miss out on the cleaning much I promise. They only really change sheets on the 4th day regardless.
- Stephen (10/5): - Great location, modern hotel, great room sizes and amenities!
- David (10/5): Great hotel, loud room - Hotel is very nice, staff is fantastic and friendly, and the room was very clean. However, the room was very loud and we heard every footstep of the neighbors above us. It woke us up several times.
- Sanja (10/5): - Amazing hotel with lovely amenities. We booked the bigger room and it was more than enough for two people. Staff is helpful, speak great English and are all so lovely. Hotel itself is new and really pretty. We really loved our staff and will absolutely return. Location is great, about a 15 minute walk to Dontonbori and many train stations super close by. 10/10 !
- Simin (8/5): - The double room was a bit small, with just enough space to fully open my luggage, but it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The hotel has a relaxing vibe with darker interior tones, so if you have poor eyesight or aren't wearing glasses, be cautious as the lighting can be a bit dim. It's in a quiet, safe area, and there are several local restaurants within walking distance offering a variety of dining options. One downside was the front desk area, where staff often lined up, making it unclear where I should stand, and the counter design felt awkward for a one-on-one conversation. The hotel often hosts DJ nights, so if you enjoy a more laid-back, less crowded nightlife, this hotel is a great option.
