Riverside HOSTEL CHILLAX Namba

Really nice hostel, amazing chill area and good facilities. Really nice staff and owner, they were really kind and caring with me when I stayed there and was really sick. Definitely recommend.

Chill! People, Place, super cool! Thanks!

Great location however the electric on the headboard did not work and they did not compensate me or transfer my room. Also I mistakenly checked out with the door key card and received very insulting email from the gentleman at the front desk Nori. He was going to charge $60:00 American for this. I would not stay for the money they charge. Hostel staff was rude and did not offer proper help

Staff were amazing and the hostel felt very clean! Lovely social spaces too

the dirtiest hostel i have stayed in Japan

Be careful when booking the PRIVATE SINGLE ROOM, it's advertised as a nice room with cosy décoration and a nice view, but I ended up with a 2m by 2m box with no window... Kind of claustrophobic. I'm not even sure it's legal to rent this kind of rooms which looks more like a closet.

The man who checked me in was great, most of the staff was also nice and friendly except the one man that silently stepped in to refill the hand soap while I was using the hand sink, and he sounded a bit sick. He took uncomfortably long while and another customer had to wait for him to finish. It was a bit invasive. Also when I moved the mattress to readjust my sheets, a dank smell came up (went away when I put it down). Other than those two minor things, great place.

I was a bit disappointed by the place, I wouldn’t recommend it to a family or somebody over 27. The rooms are smelly and the people talk and hang out in the door rooms, which is hard to sleep on. Laundry room is fine, but dryer you have to pay 3 times for it to dry properly? Which is almost as much as one night pay. If you’re under a budget and young, it’s. A great choice. Staff were really friendly, and it’s a beautiful place, guess you get for what you pay 🤷🏻‍♂️ ended up ge...

Wonderful Hostel. Really nice beds, heating and super close to everything for a really good price.

I liked this place a lot. Didn’t have a window in my room which was great because I was able to knock out upon arrival after a long day traveling but if you’d like a window you should probably ask. The staff was great. And they have a kitchen so you can cook all the Wagyu you want.

The beds were very comfortable. The people there were all super chatty and inclusive. The common space was fantastic with the music. Overall very chill as the name suggests. Would stay here again

This was a bad hostel experience. Besides the location and nice guy that helped me at the front desk, i could not wait to leave this place. The floors looked like they havent been cleaned in years. I was walking to the bathroom early in the morning and stepped on what looked like a turd, was actually someones nasty dreadlock. But God forbid you wear your shoes in the hostel. The walls are paper thin, the people next to me are coughing loudly and having full conversations (its 3am currently)

perfect hostel with the most comfortable bed ive slept on while backpacking! would definitely stay here again!!!

Was a great Hostel. Very social atmosphere. Location was excellent.

Wasn’t very social but beds were so comfy and spacious. Lockers too and bathrooms are nice.

Super spacious bunks and great location

Super chill vibes with a good crew running it. Just a few minutes walk from dotonburi and america town. Comfortable rooms at a great price

The location and cleanliness of the bathrooms are what stood out to me. These are just great. For some reason my room felt very damp. Maybe because it was above the showers? The towels sizes are also very uneven. The one I got on my 2nd day was almost half the size of the previous one. I also couldn't get a fresh one on my departure day given no one was at the front desk. I also wasn't very fond of the "do not lock" on the door handles. It feels like the place needs some upgrades to be ...

A+++++ Perfect place and easy walking to Main stations.

A lovely hostel, I love the pod-style bunks, they're very comfortable and give a sense of privacy in a room of 12. Plenty of space to store a suitcase in the room with multiple there. Facilities were clean and the main lounge always smelled nice with incense. Good location, quick walk from Namba station, multiple metros close by, and only 15 mins walk to Dotonbori area. Would stay here again.
