The OneFive Osaka Namba Dotonbori

10/10 Excellent

"great"

Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA

10/10 Excellent

"Great laundry. Everything clean"

ANCHORED by RIHGA OSAKA NAMBA

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was perfect, prime location with only a couple of minutes' walk to the subway stations, the property was very new and had a good amount of space at this price. Only two things that need improvement: 1. the AC keeps blowing strong cold air even at the lowest speed. 2. I only requested 2 full housekeeping services during my 8-day stay; however, each time the staff dropped some of my items to the floor and just left them as is.. Otherwise the front desk staff were very nice and they have nice vending machines on several floors including one ice cream vending machine"
