Mad Cat Hostel Osaka

The owner is the purest soul imaginable. If you got lucky enough to book this you are in amazing hands.

A wonderful place to stay in Osaka! Convenient location, comfortable room, and the owner Reiko and staff were so welcoming and friendly. Being in Japan for a month, I loved this place because it felt like home! And the handsome cats Maru and Kogo were so cute and friendly too! Highly recommend to anyone in the area!

Highlight of my stay in Japan, so good I ended up returning for another night ! Lovely homely atmosphere, staff friendly and great to have conversations with, the 2 cats are very cute

Mad Cat Hostel Osaka Mad Beach Bar is a hidden oasis inside of Osaka. The two owners, Rieko and Toshi, are wonderful, and incredibly hospitable. They have lots of experience working in hostels all over the world, and it shows. The hostel is incredibly clean, showers are large, and the rooms have a great sense of privacy. Even though there were many people staying during my time there, it never felt cramped. They also have a private room if that 's more you 're thing. The atmosphere is safe and cozy, and it honestly felt like it was a home, where the people there were all friends and family. For foreigners, Toshi and Rieko speak prefect English, and a bit of Spanish. Credit cards are taken, and there are lots of booklets available inside that lead to day excursions, or just simple trips around town. Mad Cat is very conveniently located by a bus stop and in-between two major subway stations. You 're close to three convenience stores, across from a lovely gyoza place, and they have a bar on site, the Mad Beach! If you can, try the Jazzberry fruit beer, or the aptly named Wednesday 's cat. If you 're not into beer, Toshi makes a mean chuhai. If you love cats, the whole place is filled with charming cat memorabilia, and two adorable cats who are a bit shy. Though you 'll hear them chatting in the morning when they 're hungry for breakfast. All in all, Mad Cat Hostel Osaka Mad Beach is a phenomenal place for anyone looking to stay in Osaka. I have stayed in Osaka many times, and it is by far the most delightful and memorable experience I have had there.

Awesome hostel (and Bar) in Osaka!! Super clean and comfy, good WiFi, nice atmosphere. I strongly recommend to stay here and I will be back for sure!! Plus the awesome staff who can speak English will help you from the moment you step in the door.
