My girlfriend and I stayed here for only 1 night during our trip to Japan.

We decided to stay here just because it was a pretty new hotel.

Apparently, it was a good choice. Large room, comfortable bed, good city view and strategist location.

Hotel shuttle bus picked us up from the station to the hotel punctually.

We tried the hotel spa facility in midnight which made our body fresh inside and outside! And, of course, it was free!

The hotel staff spoke English very good and were so kind and polite. They helped us explaining ways to go to tourist spots and restaurant.

We highly recommend to stay here and would probably stay here again for future trip!

This is the perfect hotel.

Never given all 5 stars.
My room on the ladies floor was incredible.
Décor, view, curtains, window opens, women's skincare, hair dryer, lit mirror, scales, air humidifier, air con, air purifier, even TV that is hidden behind historic picture of the area. Lights panel allows comprehensive mood lighting.And has sa proper alarm clock, no pushing buttons.
I had access to the lounge filled with coffee table books in Japanese and English, limited snacks and refreshments and swanky looking coffee machine.

On the same floor luxurious ofuro (Japanese style bath) with a spa on an outside deck.
All this for ¥12000- incredible value.

The breakfast not included, was ¥1100 for a beautiful selection of Japanese foods.
I ate in the restaurant for dinner and also amazing value and not having a salad on the menu the chef offered to put one together. And of course it was excellent too.

I really wanted to move in! But after two nights made my leave, but I'll return. I was a single traveller so the room was a great size, but if you're messy or two people travelling and are larger sized, maybe not large enough toom.

Please if you've time, walk into the city. It's very pleasant walk to Umeda and since I lived here 7 years ago the Umeda area's much more impressive.

Excellent value for money in Osaka and would definitely stay again.

- Spacious and well-appointed room
- Whole hotel looks brand new and very well maintained
- Standard of housekeeping very high
- As other reviewers have mentioned, the hotel is located among office blocks so there isn't a lot to do in the immediate vicinity, particuarly at night. However, access to the subway is easy and you can get a direct train to both Umeda and Namba on the Yotsubashi Line via Higobashi Station (6-8 minutes walk). If you're feeling lazy, Umeda is only about a $10-$12 cab ride away. There is also a free shuttle every 20 minutes to Osaka station and back.
- Free and fast WiFi
- Comfortable, good-sized bed
- Friendly and efficient staff
- My friend stayed in a Superior Room while I stayed in a Standard Room. To be honest, there wasn't a lot of difference between the two types of room - I think the Standard Room is probably better value, particularly if you don't plan to use the Executive Lounge.
- It is clearly stated when you book that some rooms have frosted glass windows which means not much of a view. Mine was one of those rooms. While you still get plenty of natural light and can open the window slightly and look out, it seemed a shame to block out the nice river view.

Overall, very nice hotel and would highly recommend.
