Top Kitano Hotel Reviews

Namba Oriental Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is located at Namba sennichimae shopping arcade, just a short walk to Namba station (Midosuji line) via Namba Walk and Kintetsu-Nippombashi station for tour pickups. Loved the hot press machine and abundance of washers and dryers except we saw disgusting shoes in Dryer 14!"

Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is located very close to Osaka station, when you know, how to find it. It is above a massive shopping center with a check-in reception located on the 9th floor. The hotel is very modern, uses lots of modern technology (self-check in and self check-out kiosks, QR code for stored suitcases, a robot zooming around the restaurant collecting plates, etc.). There is a massive food court on the 8th floor, just below the hotel, which is very handy after long days of walking around. The hotel has a self-service laundry facilitied, which is very popular with tourists. The room was exactly as on the photos. The beds were very comfortable. Sadly no wardrobe to hang clothes and not much space for the suitcades. The breakfast was amazing. Large selection of freshly cooked food. Lots of frest vegetables and fruit. Good quality cooked japanese and western dishes. Overall it was a good stay and I would recommend this hotel."

Miyako City Osaka Hommachi

8/10 Good

"This was a nice hotel in a good location of Osaka - walking distance to the train station at the Semba Centre building. We had booked a corner room with a balcony, but it was a strange layout and there was nowhere to put our luggage so it probably would have been better to have a regular room. We ended up having to use the small couch to put our luggage on - and stack it on top of each other, so not ideal! The beds were very comfortable but due to the size and layout of the room, it was difficult to watch the TV from our beds. There is a nice Chinese restaurant on the ground floor where we had a meal the night we arrived. There is a good selection of shops and stores around the hotel if you are needing supplies."
