Onyado Nono Namba Natural Hot Spring

Embarking on my Japanese adventure, I sought out a lodging experience that echoed the essence of traditional ryokans. Nono Hotel, highly touted by local friends, effortlessly captured the spirit of tranquility and authenticity. Traveling by train: Alight at Kintetsu-Nippombashi station. It's a 2 minutes walk to the hotel (Exit 6), Take an escalator up to Lift C to avoid carrying your luggage up or down the stairs. Upon check-in, the ryokan ambiance envelops guests, with tatami-clad floors inviting a serene journey. Attentive staff meticulously tend to luggage wheels, while shoe deposit lockers ensure a seamless transition to the footwear-free zone beyond. Venturing barefoot through the hotel, clad in provided lounge wear and socks, epitomizes relaxation. While rooms exude cleanliness, minor dustiness and bath floor stains slightly mar the pristine aesthetic. TV amenities lack modern streaming options but offer ***** films accessible via reception. The onsen experience, though compact, unveils a gem in the outdoor bath. Stone-lined pools, adorned with twinkling fairy lights, evoke celestial serenity. Complimentary skincare essentials and body towels accentuate the indulgent ritual. They have limited hair dryers, so you might want to time your exit or use the one in your room. After your steamy bath, or suana session, you can grab a free prebiotic drinks between 5-10am, or free ice cream between 3pm-1am. It's located right outside of the public bath. And for those who are shy to bare fully in the public bath, you can enjoy showering in your room. All the amenities is also available there (except the free prebiotics and ice cream). Breakfast is not provided in the room package, but they do serve hot coffee on level 1 everyday between 6-11am. If you would like to cook your instant noodles, hot water is also on level 1, you can enjoy your food in the restuarant, at the lobby or in your room. My stay at Osaka could not get better when I found out they serve free-flow yonakisoba every night for supper between 9:30-11pm. The ramen slaps and it comes with a drink buffet too! Nono Hotel transcends mere accommodation, offering a holistic sanctuary for the weary traveler. With outlets all over Japan, I highly recommend staying here for a couple nights to really pamper yourself.

Location quite great if you are traveling around Dotombori and there are several transportation stations around. There are some walking distances if you are coming from Nankai line or Namba station There is onsen and free ice cream for every customer. Free ramen is also available every night Do take note if room have room service provided otherwise you will need to top up

Nice hotel in a convenient location.

Overall quite dirty, toilet was quite smelly when I requested for them to clean again there was still sewage smell, onsen is dirty and there’s a lot of hairs lying around. Hotel tried to charge me extra for kid even though it says kid stay for free

Perfect location for hotspring in the city centre. Like it a lot!

This is the sixth time I have stayed in this hotel. It is in the best location, particularly if you want to go to Nara. The nearby train station has a direct train that will take you to Nara in half an hour. There are many restaurants and shops nearby. If you need to go to the airport, the train station at Namba is only a 12-minute walk away. There are free noodles and popsicle at the hotspring.

The location of the hotel is great, close to major train stations and metro stations. There are numerous restaurants around and all kinds of food are easily available. The onsen on the 2nd floor is not big and sometimes have to wait for a showering cube. Free hot soup noodles available after 9:30pm but the taste is marginal. Overall this is a great hotel to stay and I will come again next time.

Great value for money. Even though the onsen was quite busy at night, the freebies (ramen and ice cream) make up for it.

Slightly overate and overprice, but all in all a acceptable and decent hotel
