Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA
"This is a really big restaurant with so many travelers from different countries. Everything goes smoothly during check in and out. Convenient transportation but still very hard to find everywhere, that’s due to this complicated area. The restaurant is fine, but next time I would like some quiet area. ..."

"Centrally located. Check-in was smooth. Convenience store located inside the property. Depending on the room, you could get a pretty good view of the city."

Candeo Hotels Osaka The Tower
"For what it is it’s a very lackluster hotel for a “luxury stay”. No room service, pools were separate so we were told we couldn’t swim in the infinity pool together. Very disappointing stay and I found better service and amenities in much cheaper hotels in my time in the area"
