"시간대마다 직원이 다르긴 했지만 한국말을 할 수 있는 직원이 2명은 있었고, 주말에다 숙소 퀄리티가 괜찮았는데 상당히 합리적인 가격이었습니다. 화장실이 밖에 있는 것 하나의 불편함만 감수하면 아주 매력적인 숙소입니다. 이불 수건 모두 청결해서 냄새도 안났구요. 에어컨도 시원해서 잘잤습니다. 매트리스는 약간 딱딱한 편이긴 했고, 둘이서 자기엔 침대가 약간 좁은 것 같기도 하네요. 혼자 입실한거라 상관없었습니다. 그리고 공용화장실과 샤워실 이용이긴 해도, 층마다 있다보니 저는 토요일 숙박임에도 공용 화장실 쓰고 샤워하면서 한번도 사람을 마주치지 않았어요. 거의 프라이빗하게 잘 지내다가 체크아웃했습니다. 가격이 합리적이고 시설이 깔끔해서 매우 추천합니다."

Top Kobe Hotel Reviews

Miyako City Osaka Hommachi

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous stay and highly recommend - Make sure to buy the breakfast buffet - it is well stocked with western and Japanese food,. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are very clean. Our floor (14th) had a water station by the elevator so it was very convenient to refill our bottles. The Bloom Cafe offers free soda and coffee (lattes and cappuccinos too) as well as beer and wine for Y500 per glass (buy the tokens at the front desk). The hotel is conveniently located near the Hommachi train station - make sure to walk to the Senba Center and Shinsaibashi for great shopping. The second hand market for handbags is amazing! The area is super safe and very walkable with several small eateries nearby. There is also a supermarket a block away so very convenient. Overall, we highly recommend this hotel."

Candeo Hotels Osaka The Tower

8/10 Good

"The hotel stay was great overall, but it consistently felt like the amenity spaces could not handle the people flow at most times. Breakfast was chaotic, not helped by the shape of the restaurant (thin, elongated space) so a couple of wandering guests stopped traffic entirely. The table token reservation system simply did not work with people leaving tokens on random tables instead of returning them to the restaurant maître d’ this “reserving” tables that just stayed empty. The lounge and reception suffered from some of the same issues - overcrowded at most times."

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

8/10 Good

"Pros: - The rooms were spacious compared to most Japanese hotel rooms. It was nice to have a more traditional tatami style room. - The breakfast buffet had an incredible selection to choose from. There’s a bit of a wait depending on when you go, but it goes rather quickly. - Late night unlimited ramen from 9pm-11pm was also a nice touch. We loved being able to eat a light meal after a long day of exploring. - Onsen access is really nice, with massage chairs available for use. And unlimited ice cream every night was also really delicious. Cons: - Having guests take off their shoes at the lobby makes the place smell like feet. It’s pretty gross since it was raining when we were there so it was a mix of wet socks and feet stench. They should at least require that people wear hotel rooms slippers. - The onsen was really dirty from the amount of people that would use the facilities. It was overcrowded and packed during the night time. Overall, I’d stay at this hotel again, but refrain from using public facilities. It’s almost impossible to keep the public areas clean and free of smells since there are so many guests."

Hotel Monterey Grasmere Osaka

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was big with a well sized bathroom and an amazing view of the city. The staff were all really helpful and the location of the hotel was ideal - literally right above the JR Namba station and about a 10 minute walk to the main bit of Dotonbori. The views at breakfast were amazing, and I think this is one of the best hotel breakfasts that I've had - so much choice, even for a vegetarian! We really enjoyed our stay here."
