Clean, spacious, great location”

The Lutheran Hotel is clean and also offered a larger hotel space than most others. It was also in a great location (2min walk to subway) and also near the Osaka castle. It was great because it was close enough to Namba (15-20min bu subway) but also far enough such that it was quiet. Great experience!

We always stay in this hotel everytime we visit Osaka. It's not a fancy big hotel with a lot of facilities, but so comfortable. All the stuffs are friendly and helpful. The building is not new but kept very clean. The best location, only a few minutes to walk to the Osaka-jyo castle, subway station is around the corner. There are plenty of unique restaurants and bars. A best value for the money you pay.

The hotel room just had the minimum but functional. The bed was like sleeping on a rock but I experienced that in 70% of the hotel i went in Japan. The location is really nice as close distance of the castle. The electric plugs are not really friendly access if you want to use and reload your phone from the bed. The bedroom size was okay we could open 2 baggages at the same time. I really enjoy the breakfast choise which made me increasze the facilities with an additional star. If you are looking for an affordable price, this hotel is okay but i would not recommend it otherwise.

It was 3rd stay and booked the hotel without doubt with good memories in the past. But this time I was a little bit disappointed of their lack of explanation for why they can’t offer non-smoking room even though I booked the one. Anyway they offered the one eventually after someone cancelled. Other than that, the rest of stay was good.

Great location, right near the train station, 7-eleven and castle. Not very clean though, carpets are worn and stained, bathroom grout is moldy and the area around the washing machine is really gross, hard to keep my newly washed laundry clean while taking it out of the machine. Dryer didn’t work well, probably because the lint trap is never cleaned.

We had a great stay at the Hotel The Lutheran for the following reasons: 1. The hotel is very clean; 2. It provides high speed internet in the rooms; 3. The Osaka Castle Park is within walking distance from the Hotel. We went there twice to view the Cherry Blossoms; 4. The receptionists are very attentive and friendly. We had fast check-in and check-out; 5. There are local restaurants nearby as well as Family Mart and 7-Eleven stores; 6. The surroundings are very quiet at night; and 7.
