APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Namba Ekimae Tower

8/10 Good

"Great hotel, 40 floors so a very big hotel. Right next to a metro station and also bus station. Super easy to walk across and get the limousine bus to Kansai airport, excellent price too. Breakfast is impressive, all different tastes catered for. A little further out of town but very easy to get to on metro from Osaka station. Rooms are quite petit and sadly bed quilt felt a little itchy."
