Hotels in Tennoji, Higashiosaka

Sheraton Osaka came highly recommended online, and after comparing it myself, I can confirm it's indeed an excellent choice. First off, the transportation is incredibly convenient. You can take a direct bus from the airport straight to the hotel's doorstep, which is much easier than taking the subway. It costs 1800 JPY per adult, and children are half price. Right downstairs, you'll find both Kintetsu and subway lines (I still don't quite understand the difference between Kintetsu and the regular subway, but I think they're just different operating companies). The hotel has direct access to the subway: you go down to B1, exit, and then go down one more level to reach the station. You can even get children's subway cards at a staffed counter there, which saves you the hassle of dealing with crowded counters at the airport. Namba is just two direct stops away. For Shinsaibashi, you transfer at Namba and it's another two stops, though honestly, it's not a long walk from Namba either. You can also take two stops to Tsutenkaku Zoo. For Universal Studios Japan, I took one stop on the Kintetsu line to Tsuruhashi, then transferred to the JR line, which was also very convenient. Right next to the hotel is a Kintetsu Department Store. It's not the main branch (I always get them mixed up!), but it's very well-stocked. It even has a Daiso and an Edion, and both offer tax-free shopping. There are also dining options on the 12th floor. If you walk through the department store, you'll find a McDonald's, Uniqlo, and Muji. A little further down, there's a Yoshinoya and an ABC-Mart. Basically, all your shopping needs are covered. There's a supermarket in the basement, which was where we usually grabbed things for breakfast. If you don't feel like going to the supermarket, there are also 7-Elevens and Lawsons nearby. The 7-Eleven on the ground floor is quite large, and across the street, you'll find a Lawson drugstore and another Daiso. The hotel rooms are also quite spacious. I would definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit.

I chose this hotel primarily for its convenient location near Kintetsu Uehonmachi, which made getting around easy and allowed us to catch the early airport shuttle. The double room was reasonably spacious; we were pleasantly surprised that the 1.6-meter wide bed didn't feel too cramped for two people. The bathroom was an integrated unit (meaning the toilet and shower weren't separate), and toiletries needed to be collected from the second floor. Breakfast options were pretty much the same daily, but they were edible, if a little dry/plain. Communication with the front desk in English was effortless, and the self-service key card check-out was very straightforward. Most other services were generally acceptable. However, the most frustrating aspect was the terrible Wi-Fi. The internet speed in our 8th-floor room was incredibly slow. I even noticed a separate Wi-Fi network listed specifically for our room, but the front desk informed me that the entire hotel actually shared just one Wi-Fi network. This left me utterly bewildered.

The rooms were spotlessly clean and tidy, and security was clearly a top priority – these aspects are simply a given. (I couldn't comment on breakfast since I didn't book it). In a nutshell, what I want to say is that this hotel truly offers a kind of mental and spiritual uplift (perhaps that's why the hotel sign reminds me of the anime 'Assassination Classroom' (-^〇^-)). The surrounding area boasts a shrine for spiritual peace, convenience stores, local eateries, a park ideal for evening strolls, a bustling underground shopping center, the closest subway station, a small market right across the street, training institutions, and various quality medical facilities. Of course, these are just the practical amenities. 😀 This hotel truly knows how to put a smile on its guests' faces, offering a genuine sense of relief, strength, safety, peace, and renewed vitality. It's definitely worth experiencing! It's a shame I don't have any original photos to share ( ๑ŏ ﹏ ŏ๑ ).

Unexpectedly spacious, which is a rare gem for a place in such a central Osaka location. It's about a five-minute walk to the subway station, and very close to Namba, Tennoji, and Nihonbashi – just one or two subway stops away. Umeda is also only five stops. The location is incredibly convenient. There are four convenience stores nearby and plenty of vending machines on the ground floor. It was pretty quiet; not much street noise or traffic from downstairs. The complimentary toiletries kit was also very complete; it had everything I needed. There were only two minor drawbacks, really. Firstly, as it's an apartment-style hotel, regular cleaning is scheduled – once a week on Fridays, as far as I remember during my stay. Any additional cleaning on other days incurs an extra fee, though I don't recall the price. Also, you need to provide your own drinking water. Secondly, they don't offer free luggage storage. The daytime rate was apparently 3000 JPY, with a different price for evening storage. Overall, I was quite satisfied and plan to book again on my next trip, mainly because of how truly spacious it is.

It is recommended that each Toyoko Inn hotel has a number. This is mainly because I made an operational mistake and went to another Toyoko Inn first. So if each Toyoko Inn has a number, it would be less likely to make a mistake.

I really like the location next to the subway station. There is a 7-11 downstairs. The room is clean and bright. What I like most is that the transparent windows can even be opened for ventilation. The space is quite spacious. I like it very much. I will make it my first choice next time I visit Osaka.

This is a pet-friendly hotel on the first floor, perfect for traveling with your furry friends. The room facilities and decor were a pleasant surprise, much better than the older 3 or 4-star hotels I've seen on Ctrip. For example, the room was more spacious, had a proper entryway with slippers and brand new wooden flooring, a hairdryer, and a larger bathroom. The transportation is very convenient; you just walk a few steps to the subway, literally about 100 meters. However, it can be a bit hard to find for first-timers, about 300 meters from the park entrance. The downsides are the 10 AM check-out time and the need for good communication skills (presumably with the staff).

Minute from Tsuruhashi Subway, Tsuruhashi JR is also only a few minutes, to Namba, Shinsaibashi is a few stops, the hotel is very easy to find, exit the subway exit 4 to see a very large sign. We walked from JR station to the crossroads and saw it, it was not the first time and it did not take time to find the hotel. Nearby are 7/11, Lawson and Family Mart, as well as a variety of restaurants and snack bars. There is a small sushi shop outside the JR station, made to order and very delicious, we visited 2 times. Don't buy from X Yi grilled wagyu beef, expensive can't satisfy, the waiter is one, attitude can but busy. Speaking of the hotel, check in was very convenient, it was a self-service check in and check out, but there was a staff member to assist when checking in. The house is very large and has a lot of space for 3 people to live in. Separation of wet and dry in the bathroom is a must, there is a bathroom fan, a washing machine, and a microwave in the kitchen. There is also a terrace. The environment is also very hygienic, did not clean up the room every day, but the next day there is a replacement towel placed at the door, to drink water or daily necessities can go to the front desk to get. Umbrellas are also supplied on rainy days. In the end only the check-out time was 10, which was a bit early, but you could self-check your luggage, which was pretty good. Value for money hotel. Recommended!

Our stay at Osaka Adachi-no-Mori Hotel was a pleasant surprise for my daughter and me. The hotel boasts a superb location in the Tennoji commercial district, with Kintetsu Department Store, Mio Mall, and Abeno Harukas Observatory all nearby. It's just a few hundred meters from the subway station, and the Kansai Airport Rapid Service provides direct access to Kansai Airport. The front desk offers Chinese-speaking staff. In the first-floor lobby, guests can enjoy complimentary drinks and pick up various skincare and bath amenity samples. They also provide free rentals of beauty massagers, curling irons, garment steamers, instant cameras, international adapters, and shoe dryers, among other items. The rooftop garden is adorned with beautiful lights and offers distant views of Tsutenkaku Tower. Other floors boast free amenities like KTV rooms, game consoles, billiards, table tennis, bedrock baths (Ganbanyoku), a kids' play area, a gym, and a manga corner. Upon check-in, we received vouchers for either a complimentary afternoon tea or a takoyaki-making experience. Since we stayed for two nights, we got to enjoy both activities. The afternoon tea was excellent, and every dessert was delicious. The ingredients provided for the takoyaki were ample and fresh. In the evenings, there was also a free happy hour, featuring treats like marshmallows, popcorn, prawn crackers, chicken skewers, a variety of delicious drinks, noodles, and dumplings. This time, we stayed in a deluxe panoramic twin room on the top floor. The room was very spacious and featured a proper entryway. The bathroom was thoughtfully designed with a wet and dry separation, and the bathtub was large and comfortable for soaking. The room was impeccably clean and tidy, and even had a massage chair. The view from the window was excellent, and outside the windowsill, there was a charming frog sculpture. The housekeeping staff were exceptionally friendly and polite. Throughout our stay, we were touched by all the thoughtful details. We were truly reluctant to leave, and the next time we visit Osaka, we will definitely stay at this hidden gem of a hotel again.

近鉄線とメトロが通ってるのでアクセスもよく、駅からも近く、コンビニもファミマとセブンがありロケーションは大満足です。洗濯機と洗剤と浴室乾燥機、冷蔵冷凍庫もあり、ドライヤーも風圧があり満足です。室内にWi-Fiもあるのですが、パスワードがどこにも表記されていなくて残念でした。問い合わせたら教えてくれました。2名泊まれる部屋でベットもリクライニングソファーもありくつろげましたが、大型スーツケース2つを置くスペースがないので泊まる人は選ぶと思います。
