Centara Grand Hotel Osaka

10/10 Excellent

"This property was beautiful and conveniently located. Kywa was a staff member that we met and he made the stay even better with his kindness and suggestions in were to visit. I was there with my young daughter and everything he suggested was superb. The property is clean, has great food options and walkable. I definitely recommend."

APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Namba Ekimae Tower

10/10 Excellent

"we very much enjoyed our stay with this hotel, and we could not have asked for a better location being steps away from Namba station. we were in walking distance to everything! there is a 7 Eleven right in the building, laundry facilities that are 24/hr and each load to wash and dry is 600 yen - which is very affordable for hotel laundry. The buffet was fantastic! the rooms are tight, but not uncommon for hotels in Japan in general, but they have a seating area right outside 7 Eleven so if you're an early riser in your travel group - you can leave them to sleep. Rooms have blackout blinds - which we appreciated. Very happy with our stay overall! My only complaint was that I paid through Expedia and we got buffet with our hotel cost, but when I went to check in, which is all automated through kiosks, it asked me if I wanted to add breakfast for approximately 3000-3200 yen/person, I declined because I checked my reservation and I had it included. When I got everything printed to get access to our room, it printed my breakfast tickets, I am unsure if I had of said yes to add breakfast if it would have charged me twice? That is why I don't love the kiosk check in, even if it is faster. I asked to check in with an agent but they would not let me. small matter but worth mentioning for anyone who adds breakfast through expedia."

Kobe MerikenPark Oriental Hotel

8/10 Good

"We booked this hotel 6 months ago and asked for a quiet room. They put us next to a family with a constant crying baby in and out of their room and balcony banging around. It amazes me that they had 6 months to manage our request!! However the room itself was really nice and an amazing outlook over to the sea. The breakfast was average. We did go to the roof Terrace twice for a drink and found the head bar man unhelpful and unfriendly. We asked to try the house wine which comes by the glass before ordering but were faced with a rather direct and blunt ‘NO’ which we found awkward. Not a great experience and the hotel ultimately misses out on business."
