Top Kitano Hotel Reviews

The Royal Park Hotel Iconic Osaka Midosuji

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing hotel! Very friendly, will stay again!"

Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient central location, connected to Osaka-Umeda station, and an easy train ride from anywhere in Osaka. Great views from upper floors and very quiet. Rooms are tiny and a bit cramped, but have all the amenities you’d expect. Laundry is a pain if you need it as they provide just 8 machines for >500 guests leading to a lot of frustration and waiting. Also, the lobby can get quite crowded. Fun notes: there is a mall in the building, including multiple sporting goods stores, multiple clothing stores, two food courts, four Starbucks locations, even a Burger King and a McDonalds—though the local food is much better. We also saw two idol groups doing meet and greets and performances on the second floor near the Umeda station, a boy-band one evening and a girl band another evening."

The Royal Park Canvas - Osaka Kitahama

10/10 Excellent

"Great breakfast and clean room. Love the locatioin too. It was right off from the subway station and river walk. The only thing I had an issue with was laundry. It is washer and dryer combo and the clothes doesn't get dry. I did extra dry but jean never get completely dried. Other than that, everything was great"

APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Namba Ekimae Tower

8/10 Good

"Hotel Apa was really clean and had good amenities but the situation with the elevators is a bit of a challenge we stayed Saturday and Sunday night and on Saturday night the line to go up to your room was about 60 people. There are 12 elevators half that go up to the first 21 floors and the other half the top but there was a lot of congestion. Same for leaving in the morning it took on average about 10 minutes to get an elevator. It’s a massive tower so it makes sense but a challenge none the less."
