Location

History

Nishi-Umeda Station (station number Y11) opened on 1 October 1965 as the northern terminus of the Osaka Municipal Subway Line 3 with the extension from Daikokuchō. The line was renamed the Yotsubashi Line on 6 December 1969, on the occasion of the opening of the Sakaisuji Line (Line 6). The station sits beneath Umeda 2-chōme in Kita-ku, Osaka, with a single underground island platform on the third basement and three ticket-gate clusters. Operation passed from the Osaka Municipal Transportation Bureau to Osaka Metro on 1 April 2018, and platform screen doors entered service on 20 November 2021. The station was given the supplementary name "Hilton Plaza-mae" on 1 June 2020.

Notes

A weather-observation Stevenson screen once stood at the north end of the platform — disused for years but kept as a curiosity — until it was removed in January 2025 and relocated to Morinomiya Station for display.
