Location & Friendly Staffs”

Located a short walk from Exit No.7 of Shinsaibashi Station. Please do use the lift if you have luggage as there are many stairs. There is a 7-11 just right beside the hotel. Checkin and out with no hustle. There are free tea & coffee packs at the lobby. Breakfast is included & has mixture of Japanese & Western style which we never get bored. Room size is enough for us. One mid size luggage was placed under the dressing table and another big size luggage was placed on the floor for easy access to our stuffs. Bed is comfortable (between hard and soft). Toilet is ok for us. Toilet bowl is a small though for a man to sit. Room cleaning is provided each day upon request by sign magnet on the door. However, our sleep was disturbed on one night as some drunkies knock on our door mistakenly our room as their friend next door. Not to mention,the guest next door was also making noises in midnight. I hope they improved the sound proof. Overall, good location & really good breakfast.

Nice hotel nearby Shinsaibashi station / America Mura”

I needed an hotel over the Midosuji line, not far from Namba. Via Inn hit the right spot as at the time of booking the price was rather convenient. You need to get an elevator to the lobby, then another elevator to your room. Breakfast is included, but it's a very simple one. Rooms are fairly spacious and nicely decorated. My room at the 11th floor had a nice view too. Staff was very nice. Recommended.

Just 2 minutes walk to subway shinsaibashi station. Crossing the main road will reach the side of shinsaibashi shoppinh street, is nearer compared to what is expected. Not too much of eateries near hotel area but just a bit of walk you can get everything in shinsabashi street, dotonburi and namba area. Room is clean, bed is comfy but pillow is bit of small and thin or adult. The free breakfast although simple but good enough, highly recommended if you are seeking for bit of budget but yet not to be too far from shopping street.

Nice Hotel”

We were introduced to this hotel by colleagues and we did a search. At first, the location was a bit far from where we normally wander, but decided to give it a try due to the excellent rate we got. Arrived into Osaka late at night and was greeted by a warm and friendly check-in staff and the procedure were completed after 5~6 minutes; talk about efficiency! The room were expected and found that the room was clean, especially under the bed (where our two large suitcases found their home). All the basic amenities were present. The only minor "let down" were the pillows. Only if normal pillows were used, then it would have been a perfect stay. Breakfast was included in the rate and nothing really to write home about, but was adequate for our basic needs as Osaka is full of wonderful cuisine. As mentioned earlier, location was a bit far from normal, but after a few days the location of the hotel did not really register in our minds. 7-11, Lawson and Family Mart downstairs.
