For over 60 years, Osaka English House has been a place where learning meets cultural exchange.
It all began as a family boarding house, offering students a warm home while they pursued their studies in Hirakata. Over time, we naturally evolved into an English language center, creating a supportive community where Japanese students could develop their language skills through daily practice.
Today, we welcome travelers from around the world to our guesthouse nestled between Osaka, Kyoto, and Nara. While we’ve expanded our services, we proudly maintain our educational heritage and family values. We hope you’ll join us and become part of our story.
