I originally booked another hotel, but then found this one and was lured in by the more traditional Japanese style, as well as the location. Bonus that they offer the free half bowl of ramen every night between 9-11 p.m. My friend (Agoda: you need another option for traveler type -- traveling with a friend/friends) and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was great bei...

DO NOT CONFUSE THIS HOTEL WITH SOTETSU FRESA OSAKA NAMBA HOTEL. This hotel is SOTETSU GRAND FRESA OSAKA NAMBA. We did and went in circles trying to find it. This hotel was right by Dotonbori, major tourist area. I would have preferred a hotel in a more central non-touristy location. Close to train station. This hotel is very big and a lot of business people stay here...

Stayed here with my wife and 4 year old son. Could not think of any other hotel at better location in Osaka for the price. It's about 3 mins walk from Namba subway station and Nambai Nankai line which will bring you to Kansai International Airport. The only other hotel nearer to Namba station would be Swissotel, but it's right next to one of the train lines, while Il ...

This hotel is perfectly situated near Dotoburi and right on top of the train station. We arrived in Shin-Osaka on the bullet train and the only hard part there was understanding that the JR line is somewhat difficult to utilize to get to Namba station where the hotel is located, but if you check the metro maps, it's actually a straight run there and a relatively short ...

I would definitely stay in Hotel 88 Shinsaibashi when I go back to Osaka. The hotel is very close to Namba train station. It’s also few minutes walk to Dotonbori. There’s also a near 7 eleven in the area. All the staff are very accomodating and helpful. They will really make your stay comfortable. One of them even went with us to Namba station on our first day to ...

I stayed 5 nights at the hotel. The hotel is newly refurbished. It is in very good condition. Room size is small compared to other country although it os considered a large compared to other business hotels I used to stay in Japan. Location is excellent especially when you travel from/to Kansai airport. There is a direct train from the airport to Nankai Namba station...

We found this hotel more easily than we thought we would! We were a little worried before arriving and had checked our maps but we worried for nothing. We followed the exits from the train station and the exit pretty much leads you within a few meters from the entrance of this hotel! The room was spacious - feels a little sparse and chilly, possibly because they had fl...

There are alot of 3-4 Star Hotels in Namba but for me APA Hotel Namba-Eki Higashi is the best. It is located just a few hundred meters away from the train station. There are so many restaurants to choose from in the area and the food they offer are amazing. The breakfast food they offer for free is also great. The facilities are great and the staffs are very polite and...

So it was my first trip to Japan and I found this hotel to be the best priced for the location. When I arrived, I was surprised as to how close it was from JR Namba station and Sakuragawa station. JR Namba was a maximum of a 10 minute walk (slow) and Sakuragawa was also approximately the same. Its about a 15-20 minute walk to Dotonbori street or if you're lazy, you cou...

We stayed in a double with breakfast. The first thing we noticed was how great the hotel lobby was. Looked very high class and professional. A lot can be said about a hotel just by its lobby and this was impressive. The room was spacious for Japan, had a massive (42 or 46") wall mounted TV. Room was tidy and you have the option of choosing Economy cleaning where they d...

Hotel is new and very close to Train Station especially for those arriving from KIX Airport because you can just take Nankai Express Airport Train (or the Rapi:t Train) and it will stop and Nankai Namba station. From Nankai Namba Station, you just need to walk for 5 minutes to Hotel. Just look for the East Exit and when you saw Taito Red Building, just head that way to...

This is literally next to Namba Yasaka Shrine which most people don't come here for. It is in the middle of Osaka most famous shopping district "Horie" and Shinsekai, both of which are highly recommended for travellers. Also, it is about a 5-mins walk to the nearest supermarket "Life", where you can buy most stuffs. Look out for discounts at night since this is also wh...

The primary reason I picked this hotel is that its location was perfect (for me) for a short stay in Osaka - quite near to at least 2 major train stations, and also a short distance away from Dotombori and Shinsaibashi-suji - and the price point per night was just within my budget. I was able to check-in at the hotel at the afternoon and have enough time to see Dotombu...

ALPs facility was a little quirky. We didn’t know it’s previous history as a “love” hotel and still had a red lamp over the bed. Rooms had traces of smoking even though it was non smoking. Room also had a cash machine and slot machine, was equipped with massage chair, spa tub and shower. Spacious room and otherwise clean. They comped us free breakfast. Food was o...

The hotel is near from train stations- about 2-min walk from Ebisucho station and 5 to 10-min walk from Shin-Imamiya station which makes it easy for us to tour around Osaka. More than the transportation accessibility, it's the kindness of the staff that gives us homey feeling. They even allowed us to leave our luggage first after check-out so we could shop before our f...

This hotel is very new and everything is nice. The bathroom was small but had a toilet with all the bells and whistles and a deep bath tub. We stayed in a double room which was a decent size, but had to switch to a twin when we booked an extra night. The twin room was a little squishy. If you can get a room on at the front of the hotel it is better as the hotel backs o...

Clean rooms, facility looks brand new. Can be easily found. Best and closest exit to take from Namba Station is Exit E7 or E9 directly from Namba walk. Once you get out from both exit you will be facing Takashimaya mall across the street, turn on your left side from the exit and keep walking straight ahead to the Hotel, it will be at the corner of the street after Sega...

The hotel is super near to Dotonburi street, meaning you can shop, drop your stuff back in hotel and back to shop again! It's also near to Kuromon Market, about 10 to 15 min walk or you can catch a train. The hotel provides free ramen from 10.30pm to 11pm, free wine & beer from 10.30pm to 11.30pm, free massage chair, free coffee & tea and the best part of all... FREE ...

Pros: -Hotel location is very near Namba Nankai Station and Osaka Metro Namba Station -Walking distance to Dotonbori, Shinsaibashi, Kuromon Market -There's also a nearby Kohyo Supermarket (maybe 10-15 minutes walk), 2 Family Marts, and a nearby bus stop Cons: -Upon arrival there is no staff to assist, only check in via an iPad. But because we had problems with the iPa...

Hotel is very close to Ebisucho train station and a walkable distance from Dotonbori. Rooms are spacious, modern and have a great view of Osaka. Guests are offered complimentary pocket wifi as well as free ramen and alcohol every night from 10pm to 11pm!

Pros: -Close to a lot of restaurants, shopping establishments, train stations, and family mart -friendly and accommodating staff -rooms are cleaned and towels/robes changed every day if you request it -basics provided (shampoo, body soap, toothbrush/toothpaste, razor); thermos can be borrowed if you need one -there’s hot and cold water available, and the toilet is equi...

My mother and I stayed here for 4 days. The staff were very accommodating. They provided us with hot water and even assisted us in preparing our cup noodles (that we bought in the convenience store) for breakfast. There is a 12mn curfew so if ever you have plans on getting back late, you must inform the staff in the reception beforehand. Luggage storage is provided wit...

Initially I was skeptical of the room condition after reading some negative reviews on Hotel Misono. However when I went to stay, the room was large and beds were comfortable to sleep. Toilet is made with MARBLE flooring and tiles! There is even a stainless steel bathtub. Simply WOW! Note that the door lock is a simple push-button, nothing of advanced technology. The ...

The price is quite cheap for less than $40 per night u get a capsule but stay solo in a room. It is very near to shin imamiya train station, just went you exit the station few steps you will reach the hotel already. There is Nankai Airport express at the train station which link to Kainsai Airpot Directly. Staff are good and they can speak english and there is a nice ...

Should you be interested in a centrally located hotel at a very affordable price, hotel Hillarys is an excellent choice. This is especially so if you have interests related to Japanese subculture as it is in Nipponbashi, Osaka's mecca for such hobbyists. Being a stone's throw away from a very convenient train station, Namba, as well as having many good eateries nearby,...

I booked kamon hotel 6 months prior to our trip to osaka. So far this is BEST hotel to stay in namba area. It’s really near everything! You have family mart few walk from the hotel and 7-8mins walk to train station. 8-10mins walk to Kuromon Market. We llved this hotel so much even if it’s our first time. My expectations to this hotel is 5 star! all the staff are nice a...

Unfortunately we were given the smoking room. The smoke smell was very strong. All our clothes were smelly after the stay. Fortunately, we only stayed one night. On the positive side, the rooms are very big though. It has a king size bed, a sitting area, a microwave oven hidden away, a karaoke set and a Jacuzzi. We had free parking. The elderly receptionist is very...
