Place near the metro and is quiet. Suitable for those who enjoy such a peaceful area. Room however is kinda small but is to be expected. Breakfast was simple and is prepared. Not buffet style. Place is new and staff was helpful. Recommended

A newly renovated and opened hotel with decent size hotel rooms. The setup in the room is very functional (e.g. enough space to open large suitcase and functional desk and chair that have enough space). Have all the amenities that one would expect and need in a hotel room. Located one subway stop away from Umeda shopping district within walking distance. It’s in a quiet neighborhood which I prefer. Have a mini AEON store across the street and a few restaurants and a drug mart so it’s convenient to buy necessities when needed. Five minutes walk to the subway station. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

The staff were very friendly and helpful! The mattress i had was a bit stiff and hard for my liking but i was able to sleep well regardless. The location is great too, only one stop away from Umeda station and not too far from Shin-Osaka either. Would gladly stay again.

Incredible Hotel! Great location!

We had a wonderful stay at The Gala Hotel in Umeda, Osaka as a multigenerational family of six. The hotel was exceptionally family-friendly and made traveling with both kids and grandparents incredibly easy and enjoyable. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and well-appointed—plenty of space for everyone to relax. The bathroom and shower were particularly impressive—modern, spotless, and truly luxurious. One of the sweetest touches was the welcome packs for the kids, complete with the most adorable little slippers. It made our children feel so special and welcomed from the start. The hotel’s location is outstanding, with easy access to several major train lines. It made exploring Osaka a breeze, and we were able to take seamless day trips to Kyoto and Nara, which was a big plus for our itinerary. Visually, the hotel is beautiful—filled with colorful accents and lush greenery that gave it a fresh, calming atmosphere. We especially enjoyed the rooftop terrace—a peaceful spot to sip coffee and ease into the day before heading out. We’d absolutely recommend The Gala Hotel to any family, especially those traveling in a larger group. It truly felt like a thoughtful, comfortable, and stylish home away from home.
