There are 80+ Anytime Fitness gyms in Osaka and it is growing. But many of them are outside of the main Osaka area and not in convenient locations for tourists. I have picked up the 3 most convenient Anytime Fitness gyms for tourists in Osaka.
1) Namba area is a very popular and convenient area in Osaka. This is a huge entertainment area, and the express train from Kansai Airport stops here. One of the most popular World Heritage-listed shrine in Japan, Koyasan is also accessible from Namba train station. In this area, there is Anytime Fitness Imamiyaebisu.
Richmond Hotel Namba Daikokucho is a solid 3 star hotel in quiet area in busy Namba and it takes only 5 min walk to the gym. It has also a laundry machine you can use.
2) The area surrounding Umeda and Osaka stations is a bustling entertainment district with numerous shops and restaurants.Also, it is very convenient to move around with trains. In this area, there is Anytime Fitness Umedahigashi. It takes 12-15 min walk from Umeda station.
There are many hotels in this area, but if you want to stay close to Anytime Fitness, then Ibis budget Osaka Umeda is a good option. This 3-star hotel has good value for money. You can have a well balanced breakfast !
3) Shinsaibashi is a big entertainment area with many shops and restaurants. In this area, there is Anytime Fitness Nishiohashi. There are many hotels in this area.
Among many hotels in this area, Hearton Hotel Shinsaibashi Nagahoridori is a solid choice. It is not fancy hotel, but this 3-star hotel has good value for money and is very convenient. It is only 1 min from Shinsaibashi station and a 5 min walk to Anytime Fitness Nishiohashi
