BackpackersHome Osaka (THE STAY OSAKA Shinsaibashi)
バックパッカーズホーム大阪（グランドホステルLDK大阪心斎橋）
Coliving
BackpackersHome Osaka is a hybrid sharehouse and guesthouse in the Shimanouchi district of Chuo-ku, a short walk from both Nagahoribashi and Shinsaibashi stations. The property sits inside a 10-floor reinforced concrete building with 20 rooms and is operated by SHARE HOUSE 180, one of Japan's larger sharehouse networks. The concept blends short-term guesthouse flexibility with the month-to-month rhythm of shared living.
Stays start from one month, with a one-week trial plan also available on request. The building is fully furnished and move-in ready. Wi-Fi is included throughout. No dedicated coworking space is listed on the website, so residents who need a proper work setup will likely head to nearby cafes or coworking spaces in the Shinsaibashi and Namba area.
Shared facilities include a kitchen, living room, lounge, laundry room with washer and dryer, washroom, and toilet. The kitchen is equipped with a rice cooker, microwave, and fridge. A hairdryer is available in the shared washroom. The manager cleans common areas once a week. Bicycle parking is free.
Monthly rent is ¥80,000 plus a communal fee of ¥19,000 (tax included), bringing the total monthly cost to approximately ¥99,000. No security deposit is required. There is an initial contract fee of ¥11,000 (tax not included). Contracts run month to month with a minimum stay of one month.
The property is part of the BackpackersHome network, which allows members to move between affiliated hostels and guesthouses across Japan on a monthly basis, from Okinawa to Hokkaido. This makes it a base for nomads who want to rotate locations rather than commit to one city long-term.
Dietary options are not confirmed. No information about in-house meals, vegan, vegetarian, or non-dairy options was found on the website. The property has a shared kitchen, so residents cook for themselves. Shinsaibashi and Namba have dense food options within a short walk.
