karaksa hotel grande Shin-Osaka Tower

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room and staff were fantastic nothing to fault about the team. Breakfast had lots of options and food was delicious. Room is a bit small."

APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Namba Ekimae Tower

10/10 Excellent

"We booked a last‑minute stay at this hotel after a typhoon disrupted our original plans, and it turned out to be an excellent choice. We reserved two triple rooms; the beds are twin‑size by American standards, so each room comfortably fits three people. After checking in, we stopped by the bar for drinks and food, and the prices were surprisingly reasonable. The hotel’s amenities and overall design were outstanding—modern, convenient, and thoughtfully laid out. It’s also in a great location: close to Namba Station and the JR line, and about a 12‑minute walk to the Dotonbori area. Our rooms had incredible views, and even though we could hear the storm winds outside, the comfort of the hotel made it easy to relax. There’s a 7‑Eleven inside the building, which was extremely convenient. The hot tub and pool are located on the top floor, though there is an additional fee to use them. The onsen is free, but note that it follows traditional Japanese customs—no swimsuits allowed—so be prepared if you’re not familiar with onsen etiquette. Checkout is at 10 a.m., and the hotel offers free luggage storage. A tip: the line for luggage storage starts forming around 9 a.m., and many guests wait until right at 10 to drop their bags, so plan accordingly. Overall, this hotel is an excellent choice for business travelers, solo visitors, couples, and families. Highly recommended."

Centara Grand Hotel Osaka

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel! Front lobby to the room to all the restaurant and rooftop, all 5 stars! Attention to details. One of the best breakfast! The room is clean, bright, spacious, high ceiling..only one thing I would like to mention is the room light control. That should have one light control near the door when you first enter. We enjoyed our stay! We will be visiting your other hotel in Bangkok soon! Looking forward to it! Sharon Fitzgerald"

Hotel Monterey Grasmere Osaka

6/10 Okay

"Here’s a polished 3 star review you can use: The pictures online are beautiful, and the hotel makes a strong first impression when you walk in. The high-rise building feels elegant and peaceful, and the view is beautiful. Reception is on the 22nd floor, then you take a second elevator to reach the rooms. The location is very convenient near the train station, which was a plus. However, overall, we were not impressed. There were four of us, and the room was advertised as a suite with two additional twin beds, but those extra beds felt more like cots. The room itself was very small, felt outdated, and did not match the impression from the online photos. It was quiet and in a nice location, but the room was not impressive enough for us. Overall, I would give it 3 stars."
