The Royal Park Canvas - Osaka Kitahama
The hotel itself was very clean! The staff were nice and the room was big compared to others we stayed in. Bathroom was spacious and the beds were nice! We did not like that this was the only hotel that charged us a nightly tax but outside of that I don’t really have many complaints. It is VERY close ...

Middle of business district. Cabs are always outside ready to take you wherever. Train is right across the bridge 5 min walk. Great indoor amenities like spa, coin laundry, and wonderful bathrooms we had.
