    Business traveler
    Double Bed No Smoking
    Stayed 1 night in May 2026

    “It was comfortable.”

    Since it is still new, the hotel facilities and rooms were well-maintained and clean, which was great. There was enough space even when I opened my large carry-on suitcase for work, and there was room to put it under the bed. The table was long and filled up against the wall, and there was a comfortable space to put my makeup tools and items used in the hotel. The bed was spacious and had no issues. It was a longer walk from Shin-Osaka Station than I expected. The subway Midosuji Line station was probably closer. But it was a hassle to get from the shinkansen to the subway. There is a convenience store within a short walk. Since I had an early work move and didn't have much time, I opted for breakfast from the convenience store, but I am curious about the hotel breakfast. Aside from the distance, it was an affordable and comfortable hotel.

    Stayed 3 nights in June 2026

    “I am happy with the sense of cleanliness.”

    Cleaning in the rooms is done every three days, but towels can be exchanged daily upon request. The water facilities were kept clean, making for a pleasant stay. It was also nice that there are three elevators, resulting in minimal wait times and smooth movement. The location is convenient, with easy access to JR Shin-Osaka Station, Hankyu Minamikata Station, and the Subway Midosuji Line Nishi Nakajima Minamikata Station, allowing for a choice based on the destination. Additionally, considering access from Itami Airport, the limousine bus stop is close by. However, because multiple stations are nearby, there can be a lot of foot traffic at certain times, which made it a bit difficult to walk with heavy luggage on some days. I think this accommodation can be recommended for those planning to visit multiple areas, thanks to its good transport accessibility.

    “Beautiful, spacious, close to the station.”

    The room was very spacious and allowed us to relax. The bathroom and toilet are combined, but it is quite large. The hotel is new and very clean. There were plenty of outlets and lights by the bedside, which was convenient. The desk is also spacious enough for placing things or doing work. It was convenient because Shin-Osaka Station, the Hankyu Station, and the subway station are all within walking distance. You can hear the shinkansen, but it's not bothersome. I'm glad I chose to stay here. I would definitely like to use it again next time.
