This is honestly one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. Hiro is a very chilled guy who goes out of his way to help you with any queries, tips and advice. Having arrived in Korea Town after a long and tiring trip, he gave my friend (Vi - her review is on here too!) and I directions to... More

Hiro made us feel extremely welcome at his guesthouse. It's one of the only places I've stayed at whilst travelling which has felt like home. Me and my friend stayed sporadically at Hiro's, going off for a few days at a time to see other parts of Japan, and he kindly let us keep our bags at the guesthouse when... More

My best friend and I stayed at Hiro's guesthouse during our stay in Osaka. We booked out 2 weeks in the tatami room. The facilities itself are of a higher quality than other guest houses we stayed at in Japan (we went to maybe around 4-5 different cities other than Osaka). The showers especially are awesome! The toilets are also... More

I would highly recommend Hiro's to anyone who is visiting Osaka, he goes out of his way to help and makes sure you have a good time. The guest house itself is comfortable and excellently maintained, however what really makes it so good is that Hiro himself is incredibly generous, welcoming and helpful. This was certainly one of the best... More

Although a little bit hard to find, the search for this guest house is definitely worth it. Hiro's Guest House is clean, quaint and comfortable. We stayed in one of the private tatami rooms and enjoyed every minute. Korea Town is colourful and the JR Line is nice and close. The worst part about staying here is choosing what to... More

Hiro knows how to run a business the way businesses are meant to be run. By treating the guests as you would treat your own family. Easy going, cordial, informative and welcoming, would be just a few choice words to describe the character of my host. I arrived in Koreatown with the purposeful intent of having a few tasty Korean... More

Hiro's guest house is located in the heart of korean town so it is an awesome location if you love Korean food. It is only about a 10 minute walk from the JR train station. The rooms and facilities were very clean and had a nice "home" touch to it. Good for big groups (up to eight). The beds in... More

The guest house is situated in the heart of Osaka's Korea Town, which is a buzzing and thriving community a 10 minute walk from the nearest metro stop. Hiro is a wonderful host, who goes out of his way to help and make you feel at home. He knows all the best places to eat and has a fridge full... More

We stayed in a private room. The location was very far from the centre. Generally clean but very noisy outside. It is possible to find a nicer accomodation for the same price if wanting a private room but good for large groups. Owner is really nice and there are some great restaurants nearby and people around the neighbour were always... More
