Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA
The place was nice, but the stools in the bathrooms were so dirty and disgusting. The staff was helpful and very nice. The room the nice but not storage and no bathroom door. Not place to store suitcases. No hooks to hang our towels. I would stay here again, but that’s after looking at some place ...

Hotel Monterey Grasmere Osaka
Nice and clean. Conveniently located. There’s also a convenient store on basement which we loved. Only slightly inconvenient part was if you’re on any floor above 22 you have to take two elevators. First one to floor 22 then next one to your floor up to 30.
