Sanda Holidays from AU$3,000

It is spacious and clean but a bit inconvenient when it come to transportartation

Located just right outside Universal City Station and Universal Studios Japan itself, this is one of the best hotels you can stay at if you're planning for a trip down to USJ. It can be on the pricier side, but if you treasure your sleep and want to be right outside the gate just as it opens, this is your definite go-to for lodging. Also helps that your bed is just a 5-10 min walk away from the gates after a long day of queuing and walking (and of course playing) at USJ! Our feet and back were aching, and it was a relief we could rest up without travelling via train again. It was also a nice touch to have breakfast the next morning waiting for us downstairs. Amenities are great, you've got your usual heated toilet seat with bidet, good hot shower and tub, aircon and all. Pillows could be better, but all the staff there were great. Breakfast was good too. It was a continental breakfast with some japanese dishes. Free flow drinks and ice cream. There was a kids section at the buffet that had all kids would ever want, fries, spaghetti bolognese and some other fried stuff (no veggies HAHA) and these tables were thoughtfully lowered, so that they could help themselves to them. A very nice touch. All in all, will be back again for our next USJ trip when the Donkey Kong land opens

Hotel is located 3-5min walk from Daikokucho stn, wh is 1stop away from main shopping area Namba stn. Can also walk to JR Imamiya stn on the JR osaka loop line to take to USJ via Nishikujo st. Big, spacious room with comfortable beds, washer.

Would stay here again. Very convenient and comfortable stay. Quick and easy to get to USJ. Place is spacious, clean, and quiet. There is a coin laundry attached on the first floor open until 2300. The emails before hand were automatic and helpful. The check in and out were all done digitally. There is space to self lock your luggage for storage in the lobby. Familymart is across the street and there is also a grocery under the tracks. Food wise there is an indian restaurant, a couple cafes, and many izakaya. There is also pachinko and snack bars. This feels more of a residential area that is relatively quiet.
