"The property seems to be recently updated, it is modern, and clean. The amenity is lacking a few things (for example, it tells the guest to wash dishes and put them away but doesn’t provide a clothe to dry them). Also, the instruction isn’t super clear. The instruction reads to leave the key on the table when checking out (that’s what it says literary in English), when in fact you need to lock and put the key in the lockbox as one example. Also the road to access the property is quite narrow...

Top Kozenji Temple Hotel Reviews

Namba Oriental Hotel

8/10 Good

"Good location with reasonable price."

APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Namba Ekimae Tower

8/10 Good

"Very thankful for the staff who helped me change rooms cause some random was snoring so hard he was vibrating the walls. Normally you can't hear anything from other rooms, but this was an extreme case."

THE LIVELY OSAKA HONMACHI

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel that definitely feels like a true 4-star property. The rooms are a bit uncomfortable, though, and the bed layout honestly reminds me of a hospital bed, lol. On the bright side, the rooftop and amenities are really nice! There’s no self-service laundry, but they offer a laundry service for ¥5,500. If you drop off your clothes by 9 AM, they’ll have them ready by 7 PM. Location-wise, it’s about a 30-minute walk from the main Dotonbori area and 15 minutes from the upscale shopping streets. The breakfast options are pretty underwhelming, but overall, it’s a good hotel with some nice features."

The Royal Park Canvas - Osaka Kitahama

10/10 Excellent

"In a very good and practice location beside the station with lots of things to do in the hotel and nearby. Very clean and the staff is extremely friendly and helpful."

Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA

10/10 Excellent

"Excelente ubicación ."

Toyoko Inn Osaka Namba

10/10 Excellent

"Good 🙏"

The OneFive Osaka Shinsekai

8/10 Good

"rooms are too small"

APA Hotel Namba Ekihigashi

10/10 Excellent

"Check in is self service and fast. Room is clean as usual."

Candeo Hotels Osaka The Tower

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is beautiful!! I loved the attention to detail with how items were laid out and hidden in plain site. We were also able to move the beds to make the room better for our needs. We found the room spacious and the beds were comfortable. The view of the city, from our room on the 29th floor, was amazing. The spa was magical. You are provided water, fridge, slippers, pj's,body scrub and great quality shampoos, conditioner and lotion. The room has an open concept plan where you can block the visibility into the shower. My one complaint is the shower is only blocked on one side and you enter the room via the closet/bathroom, leaving the shower/person exposed. I would definitely book this hotel again. Just be mindful of bathroom limitations regarding who you travel with."
