Top Nishinomiya Shell Museum Hotel Reviews

THE RISE OSAKA UNIVERSAL BAYSIDE

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is in a residential neighborhood and is only a 5-minute walk from the train station. It is beautiful, clean, and spacious. The bathroom has a washer, but no dryer. You have to hang your clothes on the clothesline on the balcony or in the bathroom and turn on the bathroom fan. It takes at least an hour and a half for your clothes to dry in the bathroom. We were there in August, so our clothes dried fastest outside. It was a great experience for us. The only thing I didn't like was that they served the same two breakfasts every day. It's not bad if you’re staying for a weekend or less than four days, but it’s not ideal for those staying more than a week unless you don't mind eating the same thing every day. The staff was very respectful and welcoming."

HOTEL UNIVERSAL PORT

8/10 Good

"We arrived late to check in to our room from our flight. Check in process was simple and easy. The only issue we came across was not having many food options due to how late it was and our kids have allergies. Very easy and convenient walk to USJ and City Walk. The building is a little bit old but they do maintain it well and it’s clean."

HOTEL UNIVERSAL PORT VITA

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was great and location to USJ"

LIBER HOTEL OSAKA

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing onsen with true mineral waters, so relaxing after a long day. Close to free ferry over to the Osaka aquarium and directly across from the train station and Universal Studios"

The Singulari Hotel & Skyspa at Universal Studios Japan

10/10 Excellent

"While the room wasn’t incredibly spacious, the space had been used well in terms of design and furniture— my personal taste is not loving a shower-over-bath for comfort (particularly after a long day walking with sore legs) however that’s not a deal breaker for me. Friendly staff, and great amenities as well as an awesome location both for public transport access and access to universal studios"

Oriental Hotel Universal City

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, excellent location near USJ."

Hotel Keihan Universal Tower

10/10 Excellent

"We really liked this hotel! Super close and convenient for Universal and some fun family rooms with bunkbeds that the children loved. We would definitely stay again."

Hotel Plaza Kobe

10/10 Excellent

"Nice"

Quintessa Hotel Osaka Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed for Magical Mirai 2026, really easy to access the venue especially for lining up early in the morning."
