We spent one night in may 2012 and were extremely impressed with the level of service received. The concierge staff were extremely helpful with recommendations and suggestions on each occasion we approached them. The hotel also provided a buffet breakfast and free wifi which was well appreciated Although the hotel is not central, there is sufficient transport and a free... More

Really great value, by far the best of the various places I've been to in Japan. The rooms feel a bit more spacious than others I've been to in Japan. Note that this is not near the subway (the one across the street is a specific line that does not connect to the subway). There is a very well-run bus... More

This hotel is dated but was quite obviously constructed with no expense spared back in the early bubble economy years of the late 1970s. Hence it is still in good condition with an impressive lobby, superbly attentive staff/concierge and fairly good views of the city if you get a room facing east above the 10th floor. Try and stay in... More

as previously mentioned by other people, this hotel is slightly isolated with not much within walking distance. However, it has a brand-new subway station situated on the hotel grounds and an absolutely fantastic free shuttlebus to Osaka station city. You can therefore connect to anywhere within the city or the rail network for the rest of Japan. The rooms are... More

This hotel is a beautiful piece of Osaka history. Located on the island of Nakanoshima which was a safe haven for International journalist after WW2. The rooms are Western style & large, the entrance lounge is lavishly decorated, the breakfast buffet is delicious, Leach Bar makes the best drinks in town & it's convenient! They run a bus to and...

Stayed in 2 semi double rooms with 2 young children in the West Wing for 4 nights. The only real positive was a regular shuttle bus to JR Osaka station, with train connections all over Kansai. When arriving in the hotel you feel like you have gone back 30 years in time. The decor was very 80s! This is not... More

We stayed for five nights using the hotel as a base for touring with our JR pass. I have nothing but praise for the hotel and it's staff. We stayed in a Natural Comfort room which was spacious and to our eyes tastefully decorated. The bathroom was well equipped and the free wifi was much appreciated. Breakfast was included in... More

Access to this huge, three tower hotel is by shuttle bus from Osaka station (not shin-Osaka). The usual efficient staff were there as you come to expect in Japan ( in Australia we could certainly learn a lot about hotel customer service from the Japanese). The room was a good size, clean, modern and in good condition. The view was... More

Stayed here for four nights including breakfast for less than 300 dollars. The shuttle service is great, but if you plan on seeing the town, I strongly suggest walking. Breakfast was great, served until 10:30, perfect for those late starters. Overall, a great stay, will be returning again in the next week,

It is a hotel close to Kansai airport easily accessible by taxi or train (direct train is about 30 minutes). It is not in the center of Osaka rather it is in Sakai City but you can take the train to center of Osaka such as the shopping center Namba from the train station that is essentially connected to the...
