G'Day Japan! / Accommodations / [Exclusive 10% OFF] Eslead Hotel: Apartment-Style Hotel for Exploring Osaka, Kyoto & Nara

For first-time visitors to Japan, deciding where to stay can make or break the entire trip.

Osaka alone is home to more than 1,500 hotels and ryokan inns as of 2024, with around 85% of visitors staying within the city area. With so many options available, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and unsure which accommodation is actually worth booking.

Standard business hotels are often affordable, but rooms can be extremely compact — even opening large suitcases can become a hassle. Apartment-style hotels offer more space and comfort, though prices are often significantly higher.

For families especially, finding the right balance between space, facilities, location and price is essential.

G’day Japan! is offering readers 10% off their stay at Eslead hotel for a limited time. Whether a first-time visitor or seasoned traveller, Eslead Hotel offers a smooth stay that feels like your home in Japan, so be sure to take advantage of this great deal!

Eslead Hotel — A Smart Balance for Family Travel

One accommodation group attracting growing attention from international travellers is Eslead Hotel, a popular base for exploring Osaka, Kyoto and Nara.

With spacious rooms, practical facilities, convenient locations and reasonable pricing, Eslead Hotel is designed to suit both short and extended stays. Rather than simply offering “a place to sleep”, the hotel focuses on creating a comfortable space where guests can conduct their everyday life during their stay — making it an excellent match for family travel.

1. Spacious Rooms Designed for Stress-Free Stays

One of the standout features of Eslead Hotel is the generous room layout. Most rooms are over 30 square metres, giving guests plenty of room to fully open suitcases and move around comfortably without the cramped feeling often experienced in standard hotels.

Even when staying with three or four people, the rooms still feel open and relaxing. Everyone has enough personal space to unwind, helping make the entire stay far more enjoyable.

2. Full In-Room Facilities That Elevate Your Japan Trip

Every room comes equipped with a washing machine, dryer in the bathroom and kitchen facilities — ideal for travellers wanting to pack lighter with the option to wash during longer trips. The kitchen includes an induction cooktop, microwave and fridge, allowing guests to prepare meals as they would at home.

The rooms also feature premium Simmons mattresses for a more comfortable sleep, while Japan’s proud Imabari towels add an extra touch of Japanese hospitality and attention to detail. Other convenient features include individual air conditioning controls and high-speed Wi-Fi, making it easy for everyone to relax at their own pace.

3. A Convenient Base for Osaka, Kyoto and Nara

Eslead Hotel operates 12 properties mainly around Osaka’s Namba and Nipponbashi areas — some of the city’s most convenient sightseeing hubs. Guests can easily access major attractions including Dotonbori, Kuromon Market and Shinsaibashi, making food adventures and shopping incredibly convenient.

The location also works perfectly for day trips to Kyoto and Nara, with smooth train access to both cities. Travellers can stay in one comfortable base while exploring multiple destinations beyond Osaka.

4. Excellent Value Without Sacrificing Comfort

Despite offering spacious 30㎡+ rooms and the convenience of an apartment-style hotel, Eslead Hotel stays are available from around AUD 120 per night. Finding this level of comfort, room size and facilities at a similar price point in central Osaka can be difficult, making the hotel particularly attractive.

The in-room kitchen also offers more flexibility than dining out every meal, helping travellers manage food expenses more easily while delivering better overall value throughout the trip.

5. Simple, Stress-Free Check-In

Eslead Hotel uses a smart contactless check-in system, removing the need for lengthy in-person front desk procedures or language assistance. Guests can enter using a passcode, making arrival smooth and straightforward without waiting in line to check in.

Late-night arrivals are also supported, allowing greater flexibility when planning flights and travel schedules. The streamlined system helps create a comfortable and stress-free experience, especially for first-time visitors to Japan. Learn more about the self check-in process here.
