Nagai Park Hotel (長居パークホテル), a 78-room business hotel that opened in 1993 at 2-13-13 Nagai, Sumiyoshi Ward, Osaka, is no longer taking reservations. On February 16, 2026, R HOTEL RE. OSAKA NAGAI PARK (81 rooms; listed on booking sites as “R HOTEL RE:OSAKA NAGAI PARK”) held its grand opening at the same address, so if you want to stay right in front of Nagai Park, this is where to book. Weekday listed prices for two guests in one room center on the low ¥10,000s, Saturdays rise to around ¥18,000, and soccer match days and similar dates sell out early.

Can You Still Stay at Nagai Park Hotel?

In short, you cannot book under the name “Nagai Park Hotel.” When our editorial team checked listing histories on the major booking sites, sales for the old hotel had stopped, and a travel review site shows it as “closed.” However, we could not find an official announcement giving the closing date, so this article says only that the hotel is “not currently operating.”

Meanwhile, at the same address (2-13-13 Nagai, Sumiyoshi Ward), R HOTEL RE. OSAKA NAGAI PARK, operated by R Hotels & Resorts Management Co., Ltd., held its grand opening on February 16, 2026. The official website lists 81 rooms, nearly the same size as the old hotel’s 78. 2026 saw a wave of openings in Osaka City; we cover the scale of new supply across the city and where prices settled in Osaka 2026 New Supply: 53 Hotels, 3,566 Rooms. Neither the official website nor the opening announcement says whether the old building was renovated or rebuilt, or whether there is any succession between the operating companies, so this article does not state either as fact. If a search for Nagai Park Hotel brought you here, it is enough to know that “a new hotel is operating at the same location.” For another Osaka example of the same building continuing under a different hotel name, see what became of Hotel Keihan Universal City after it closed.

How Much Is R HOTEL RE. OSAKA NAGAI PARK? Rates for Two Guests in One Room

Based on OTA listed prices (two guests in one room, one night, tax included, lowest rate each day regardless of meal plan, as of November 9, 2026), the median across the 151 nights from November 9, 2026 to April 8, 2027 is ¥10,800, with an interquartile range (25th–75th percentile) of ¥8,100–¥14,800. Medians by day of week are ¥10,200 on Monday, ¥10,000 on Tuesday, ¥10,500 on Wednesday, ¥10,500 on Thursday, ¥12,200 on Friday and ¥10,300 on Sunday, versus ¥17,800 on Saturday (N=21–22 nights per day of week). Only Saturday jumps, to roughly 1.7 times the weekday level.

November, the nearest month, has a monthly median of ¥13,000 by stay date (N=22 nights), the highest in this period apart from April. Rates then fall to ¥8,100 in December (N=31 nights), ¥7,500 in January 2027 (N=31 nights) and ¥10,800 in February (N=28 nights), so if you can pick your own dates for a run in Nagai Park, a December–January weekday is the cheapest time to stay.

Source: HotelBank Editorial Team research (OTA listed prices, as of November 9, 2026). “Sold out” means no two-guest room was listed as available on that date at the time of collection; “last listed” is the lowest rate listed before it sold out. Some weekdays showed listings of about ¥5,000–¥7,200, but these were excluded from the table because they may include single-occupancy rates.

To sum up the price bands: Tuesday–Thursday nights are in the low ¥10,000s, Fridays and Sundays run ¥10,000–¥20,000, and Saturdays are around ¥18,000 or sold out. For reference, the aggregate rating in public reviews is 4.0–4.5 out of 5 (30–100 reviews). The most frequent topics are “close to the station” and “sauna and cold plunge,” each at 20–30% of reviews, with “gym and fitness” at 10–20%, suggesting that the facilities themselves are a reason to stay (reviews from the last 24 months, HotelBank Editorial Team research).

What Is Inside? Sauna, Gym and Running Gear

The concept is “a hotel to run and recharge” (走って、ととのうホテル). The design lets guests complete the whole routine on site: run the loop course in Nagai Park right outside, come back to recover in the sauna, and get ready for the next day. The hotel held its grand opening on February 16, 2026 under this concept.

• SAUNA & SPA: Produced by the sauna brand SAUNA OOO. Separate men’s and women’s areas each have an indoor bath, dry sauna, cold plunge and open-air cool-down terrace. The sauna stove is a Finnish-made tower type and the cold plunge is chiller-cooled; the official website says it also works for icing after a run. Hours are 7:30–10:00 and 16:00–24:00.
• GYM: A training space with treadmills, dumbbells and benches. 7:30–24:00.
• ZEN: A quiet room for stretching and meditation, with yoga mats and foam rollers. 7:30–24:00.
• Running gear rental: Rental shoes and rental wear are available, so you can run without bringing your own.
• Lounge: The front desk, amenity bar and workspace are gathered in an atrium with a skylight. Rooms have Simmons beds, a desk, USB outlets, a refrigerator, a safe and high-speed Wi-Fi.

The sauna and spa, ZEN and GYM are all for hotel guests only; day use is not available. Check-in is from 16:00 (last check-in 22:00; later arrivals require advance notice) and check-out is at 11:00. The entrance is locked from 23:00 to 8:00 the next morning, with entry by card key. The cancellation fee is 100% from three days before arrival, so if your match or concert plans may change, check each booking site’s terms before you reserve.

Tips for Booking on Nagai Park Event and Match Days

Nagai Park is home to Yanmar Stadium Nagai (an athletics stadium) and, next to it, Nagai Ball Game Field (home of Cerezo Osaka), which has carried the nickname Yanmar Hanasaka Stadium since April 2026. Saturday, November 21, which shows as sold out in the table above, is the day of the J1 League Matchweek 15 home game, Cerezo Osaka vs. FC Tokyo. Within walking distance there are only 4 operating hotels and hostels with 144 rooms inside a 1.5km radius (properties with 10 or more rooms, as of November 9, 2026, HotelBank Editorial Team research), so on Saturdays when fans gather, supply runs out quickly.

Some rules of thumb for booking:

• Once a match or concert schedule is announced, reserve your Saturday night within the same week. Saturday listed prices are around 1.7 times weekday levels, yet they still sell out.
• For a Sunday match, stay Sunday night (median ¥10,300) instead of Saturday, or stay on after the match and book Monday night (¥10,200), to pay weekday rates.
• If Saturday is full, City Inn Nishitanabe (シティイン西田辺; 35 rooms, opened 1994) at Nishitanabe Station, one stop from Nagai on the Midosuji Line, is an option. Its median listed prices are ¥10,900 on weekdays and ¥11,900 on Saturdays (N=17–18 nights, as of November 9, 2026), so its strength is that rates barely rise even on Saturdays. Inside Nagai Park there is also the Osaka City Nagai Youth Hostel (大阪市立長居ユースホステル; 15 rooms), suited to budget trips to see a match.

Across Osaka City as a whole, business hotels are most expensive in October–November and on Saturday nights; Saturday, November 14 and Saturday, November 21 were high-rate days with citywide medians above ¥30,000 (OTA listed prices for business hotels in Osaka City, two guests in one room, tax included, as of November 9, 2026, HotelBank Editorial Team research). Knowing the citywide rate calendar, not just Nagai’s, makes it easier to choose accommodation around your match schedule.
