    My husband was told he wasn’t allowed to take a Coke up to the room so he had to finish it in the bar. We didn’t really understand why that was. Also the hotel is quite old fashioned and a bit tired and in need of some new furnishings, so that was a bit surprising given the price.

    We booked a room with a castle view and it was absolutely amazing. The cityscape we had was incomparable. The room was large and the beds were comfortable. Check out isn’t until noon which is unusual these days and we enjoyed having an extra hour in the morning to relax. The reception staff and bellboy were lovely. The location is excellent - a ten minute walk from the castle and well connected to the rest of the city by Osakajo station which is 2 mins walk from the front door.

    The staff was amazing! They carried our bags to the room and we really enjoyed the top floor bar! The drinks were so good and the service was amazing as well. We were able to see the castle at sunset up there! I would definitely stay here again.

    The only item coming to mind is that the bathroom interiors looked out of style.

    Excellent location with views of Osaka Castle, the river and two subway lines close by. There are eating venues close by. We booked rooms with Castle views. Helpful and friendly staff.

    Laundry is quite expensive here - it is designed for business men understandably, but an option for the traveller would be useful The hotel is rated 5 star, which is shown in the food and the service, but is not reflective in the rooms and the hotel itself - which is quite dated. It was our first time staying in a 5 star and we expected to go "wow!" With our room, but instead we more thought it was a nice 4 star. It lacked a wow factor of the hotel itself- the lobby feels like a shopping mall, rather than a 5 star lobby. It relies a lot on it's views Despite these things though, we still had an amazing time at the hotel

    The location is good, right by the station, and we managed to get to everywhere easily. We loved the breakfast buffet - there are great options and the staff were very attentive. The room was big and we had lovely views of the castle. It was quite a cosy room and felt homely

    Pillow's a bit flat (so I took the one from the other bed).

    The rooms feel old, the mattresses were not very comfortable and the bathroom was inferior than bathrooms in similar hotels across Japan. Service is correct but not friendly. Not enough space for clothes in the room. Not even a stand or place for the suitcases.

    The location is exceptional, very close to the Osaka Castle and the JR metro line. The hotel itself is very large and has several restaurants and other facilities. We had a wonderful view towards the castle. The buffet breakfast is very complete and very good, with both oriental and western options.
