Top Kitano Hotel Reviews

Candeo Hotels Osaka The Tower

10/10 Excellent

"Really great hotel with gorgeous view of the city. Not a ton of restaurants so had to walk a bit but train station was nice and close"

Hotel Monterey Le Frere Osaka

8/10 Good

"Good location, about 7mins sub-ground level walk to Hanshin Department Store, which leads to Umeda and Osaka Stations as well as Haruka express to KIX airport. Plenty of shops and restaurants on the sub ground level. (The sub-ground level shopping street closes at 11:55pm and opens at 5am) 3 lifts only serving 17 floors so can take time. Triple room size a little small compared to with Hanshin hotel but adequate. There was a dedicated smoking room on each floor so helpful as the smoking ban in Osaka streets. The only downsides for us) were some ladies touting on the street nearby and some loud cars revving at night."

Centara Grand Hotel Osaka

10/10 Excellent

"Extremely clean, spotless very well kept Very nice breakfast, was a huge selection between European Thai in Japanese dishes Five minutes walk to the station but having mine is in mind hot 35° weather in summer. Room could be larger, but acceptable for the central location and general size of any rooms in Japan. Nice panoramic view on the 35 floor enjoying Active leadership cocktail and dinner"

APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Namba Ekimae Tower

8/10 Good

"Bel immeuble moderne avec de petites chambres et de petites salles de bain compact. Nous avions 2 chambres de 2 lits pour 4 personnes avec porte communicante. La buanderie est trop petite pour le nombre de chambre et nous devions attendre longtemps afin d’obtenir une machine. Désagréable. Pas de personnel à l’accueil car tout est sur une borne donc peu chaleureux."
