Hotel berhampiran Stesen Osaka/Umeda, Osaka

Saya membuat tempahan dengan rancangan dengan minuman percuma. Terdapat pelbagai jenis minuman dan saya menikmatinya di hotel. Lantai dan bilik bersih, dan kakitangan semuanya baik dan saya pasti mahu menggunakannya lagi!

Hotel is just 1min walk from Higobashi station. Take exit 2 at Higobashi station. Do note that exit is a stairs only exit. Family mart is conveniently located outside the exit, just right beside the hotel. Hotel is really small, photos do not do justice. Large suitcases will not be able to open fully. Toiletries are available (toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, conditioner and shampoo). Clean towels and sheets are provided everyday. Bathtub available, water temperature and pressure is good. Bidet available. Would recommend to stay if space is not a concern.

Ini adalah hotel yang bagus dengan rasa kebersihan dan kemudahan yang lengkap. Terutama seperti hotel baru-baru ini, bekalan kuasa USB di sekitar tempat tidurnya selesa. Ia adalah hotel yang saya ingin gunakan semula lain kali.

The location is great even though hotel looks abit old. The hair dryer is best so far of all hotels.

The location is unbeatable, multiple convenience stores around, 7-10min walk to Dotonburi and various stations, lots of restaurants and quiet streets at night time. The hotel also has a cafeteria with free tea, water, melon soda, coca cola and other refreshments that are available 24/7. The room itself is simple but very comfortable and has everything you could need. Rooms are cleaned daily and amenities replenished too, even if you opt out of cleaning by sticking a ”Do not clean” magnet on the door, they then put everything in a bag and hang it on the handle. The staff is mostly professional, speak decent English and the check-in/out process was easy. Where it loses points is due to the following: On one of our big days out exploring, we came back to the hotel at around 8PM. The Front Lobby was filled with a big and disorganised Chinese group/family of 12-16 people who were scattered throughout the lobby. They did not all have a hotel key card, I know this because there was an employee by the escalator using his key on the elevator to send up them to their rooms. So my girlfriend and I got our keys out, got to the front of the other elevator and showed our cards as a way of gesturing if we could go up. The employee rejected us and we got the idea that we had to wait. Now I don't know about you, but I don't see why I need to wait for something that isn't my problem. Their lobby was littered and the tourists were being loud and screaming at eachother from across the room. We were not going to wait. Line them up in front of one elevator and use the other one for people who are entering and exiting, and if no one is entering and exiting, then let them use both elevators. Such unprofessionalism. We decided to leave and go for a walk and kill time at the local convienience store, but it definitely ruined our day and experience with the hotel. Another reason is I asked if they could make a restaurant reservation on my behalf, the bird cafe that I wanted to go to had a registration and booking process that was not friendly for tourists. It required me to write my Japanese Name for some reason, as well as phone number. The hotel said they could not make such reservations for me. I ended up walking in and was lucky it was a weekday and it wasn't as packed. Also be sure to check how many adults is listed on the room you plan to book, I didn't check properly and mine said 1 Adult, even though it fits 2 and the amenities were stocked for 2, this mistake of mine cost me 14,000yen (2000yen a day) because I had my girlfriend with me.

It was such a lovely experience. The room was pretty huge, enough space to put our luggage and unpack and repack our things. The level of cleanliness was also very good. The staff were very helpful and nice. They even have luggage storage which was pretty safe and secure since we came earlier than our check-in time and we still wanted to explore around Osaka after our check-out so the luggage storage was very useful! The location was amazing - right at the heart of Dotonbori and really near the Glico sign! We will definitely come back again.

Things have been different after covid there are good and bad about the hotel after 2 years since my last stay. Breakfast was still good but not as good as before. And the supper curry rice no longer supply. But there are free coffee and the location changes also.. lots of ”information center” around if you know what I mean.

Namba Train Station is just nearby this hotel. Walking distance to Dotonbori. You can walk to the opposite road to find Family Mart if you feel hungry late night. The Family Mart provide tables to dine in. Cheap and good Sukiya Curry outlet is also nearby this hotel. They provide nice and free roasted black coffee at the welcome area,

Never go wrong with Nikko hotel whenever you are going to Osaka … this is our third times with Nikko hotel, Osaka! Room is well equipped comes with everything h need hair dryer, safe box , small fridge, water heater and basic amenities. I particularly love the skin care provided trying to buy it but in vain…

My all time favourite hotel in osaka. Walking distance to train station higobashi. 24/7 convenient shop just beside the hotel. Onsen at level 16. What more could I ask for ?
