Reviews Summary
Ghost Ultra Lounge offers a lively atmosphere with a strong focus on hip-hop music and a diverse, international crowd. While many enjoy the energetic vibe, good music, and unique features like an in-club barber, some visitors have encountered issues with unclear drink offers and the pervasive smell of indoor smoking. It's a popular choice for those seeking a vibrant nightlife experience in Osaka's Dotonbori district.
"I didn’t try the food but the drinks were pretty good. The music was amazing so I was able to dance all night. Met a lot of friendly people and had a blast to be honest. I went on a Friday night so it wasn’t too full either. Had space to dance as well. Would definitely go again there next time I will be in Osaka 🫶🏻"

"This club is the worst but I ever saw my life. They told us you can’t go in with a tank top buy a shirt and you’re getting three drinks for free and pay ¥1000 to go in there after we come back with the shirt they say sorry you meant too late. We can’t give you any more of three twins, and they pissing us off. They told us he had a manager that was giving you free drinks and that seems like a half hour ago."

"I had a time!
There was a very mixed crowd here. People from all over the world, partying together to mostly American music. There was hip hop, reggaeton, afrobeats, pop.
The night I went, on a cold Friday in January, there were discounted entry and drink tickets. The free, pre-made drinks on tap were pretty good considering.
Despite the blast I had, I gave it only four stars because of the smoke. People smoked inside, and I walked out smelling like an ashtray. My new coat still reeks one week later. If you can't take that smell, you've been warned."
