9.1 (667 reviews)

Chisun Standard Osaka Shin-Imamiya ★★★

📍 1 Chome-2-23 Hanazonokita, Nishinari Ward, Osaka

"Perfect location - Very close to Shin Imamiya Station for the JR and Nankai lines. They also let you leave your luggage on checkout day. And the breakfast buffet is good. I do not worry about the smell on my clothes when I go out because they provide fabric freshener spray. I availed of the 2-day Nankai pass to cover Kansai Airport, Namba and Koyasan because of this hotel. Will stay again next time I am in Osaka."

Smile Hotel Premium Osaka Higashishinsaibashi
8.9 (2,769 reviews)

Smile Hotel Premium Osaka Higashishinsaibashi ★★★★

📍 2 Chome-13-17 Shimanouchi, Chuo Ward, Osaka

"I booked a triple bed room but one of the beds is a cot which is very disappointing. Breakfast is cheap and it makes sense. Worst thing is the service. Receptionists don't help guests make a short phone call for a reservation. On a check-out day, make sure you should bring your baggages except for one per person. THE WORST hotel ever I stayed in my whole life."

KOKO HOTEL Osaka Namba Ebisucho ★★★

APA Hotel Osaka Tanimachi 4chome Ekimae ★★★

📍 1-1-27 Nonin-bashi, Chuo Ward, Osaka

"I stayed here with a colleague on a business trip. The room was minimal in size and the amenities were standard, but the large public bath and sauna where I could stretch out was personally the best part! 😀 In the morning, I went for a run around nearby Osaka Castle, enjoyed the sauna, and had a standard breakfast buffet. It was a great start to the day! ☀️ I would like to stay here again if I have the opportunity. 👋"

"This hotel is right near Tsutenkaku Tower, and the environment is decent. It's quite recommendable, though the bathroom is a bit cramped. But for the price in Osaka, I'm really happy to stay here."

karaksa hotel grande Shin-Osaka Tower ★★★★
"The transportation is incredibly convenient, and the hotel even offers a shuttle bus to the airport, which is a huge plus. It's just a little over 100 meters from the subway station to the hotel, making it perfect for layovers or catching a flight. The room was also spacious and very comfortable. All in all, it was great and reasonably priced."

The OneFive Osaka Namba Kuromon ★★★★
"The location is super convenient! It's close to Namba, with Exit 2 being the nearest. Kuromon Market is just a 2-minute walk across the street. Nipponbashi is about 10 minutes away, and Dotonbori and Shinsaibashi are only a 15-20 minute walk. The room is also relatively spacious. Plus, the Lawson convenience store next door has a great selection of everything you could need."

Chisun Standard Osaka Shin-Imamiya ★★★
"The hotel is conveniently located near the train station, making travel between the airport and the hotel very easy. The location is great for getting around, and although the train tracks are nearby, the noise was not bothersome at all. The staff were friendly, and both check-in and check-out were smooth and hassle-free. The only downside was that the room felt a bit smaller than expected, even though I booked a 15 sqm room."

"The location is very convenient, with Lawson and FamilyMart nearby. It's about a 3-minute walk to the subway station, which is very close. The room is clean and tidy, and the hotel staff are nice and patient. It's less than a 10-minute walk to Daimaru and Shinsaibashi, which is super convenient. Highly recommend!"

"I stayed here for one night with my family. It's a business hotel, so you can't expect much, but it's in a good location and has the security of a chain restaurant. Good value for money. The restaurant in the hotel was full, but there was a convenience store nearby, so it wasn't an inconvenience."

First Cabin Midosuji Namba ★★★
"I traveled alone this time and chose this hotel. The location is excellent; from Namba Exit 13, you take the elevator directly to the third floor where the front desk is. There are two self-check-in machines, and you can select Chinese for a smooth check-in process. You can check in after 5 PM, but you can store your luggage and they'll give you a numbered tag. Both the third and fourth floors are part of the hotel and require key card access. Each floor is divided into different rooms, with about 12 beds per room. On the same floor, there are both male and female rooms, so you might encounter people of the opposite sex on your way to the restrooms or showers. On the third floor, the bathing area features a public bath with both cold and hot soaking tubs, a sauna, and a member-exclusive room (don't go into the wrong one!). There's also a restroom, a changing area (for clothes and towels), washbasins, and vanity tables – everything you could need. After walking a lot each day, a soak is very relaxing. Afterwards, there's a water dispenser with room temperature and iced water (no hot water). I stayed on the fourth floor, which has two independent shower rooms. They've thoughtfully provided shower head holders at different heights. The fourth floor also has vanity tables and washbasins, but no stools (the third floor has them). The restroom is next to the washbasins, with a smart toilet that's very clean. You need to change into slippers before entering the restroom. The room size is quite good; a 24-inch suitcase can be fully opened. On the first day, a bath towel, small towel, and pajamas were provided on the bed. The room has three lights and two mirrors. The brightness of all three lights is adjustable, so you can slowly adjust the lighting when you wake up in the morning, avoiding glare. There's a lockable drawer under the bed for use. You can hang clothes next to the mirror, and there are three hangers. My stay experience was excellent. The hotel provides a very comprehensive range of amenities (pajamas, disposable slippers, towels (you can get fresh ones daily), toothbrushes, hair ties, earphone cables, earplugs, combs, razors, etc.). The staff were also wonderful, patiently explaining the bed's location and important information. If I travel alone again, I will definitely choose this hotel!"
