Hotels near Kitahama Retro Building, Osaka

The location is excellent, with spacious rooms and close proximity to Osaka Castle and other attractions. Just two stops away from Osaka Station, making it very convenient for transportation. The hotel assisted with handling my delivery orders, which made my stay much more convenient and hassle-free. Highly recommended for everyone, especially those who enjoy jogging. The Osaka jogging trail is a must-try experience!

The best thing about Tokyu Stay was its location right next to the metro and also its en suite washing machine. The hotel doesn’t clean your room daily if you book it for 7 days or more. So for my 10 day trip, they only cleaned it once, which wasn’t great. The rest of the days only had changes in towels.  Also the housekeeping was not very attentive. I had 3 people staying in the room and only had 2 towels (I had an infant with me). And every day when replacing the towels they only gave me two, for 10 days straight even when I asked housekeeping for an additional towel every single day. This lack of initiative isn’t great either.  Overall, it is cheap for its location and also for its amenities (the washing machine). Besides that, the service and housekeeping isn’t top class but given the price, nothing much to complain.

One of the best hotels I’ve stayed in, very value for money! Will not hesitate to stay here again if I visit Osaka again. Location super convenient; quick walk from Shinsaibashi station, right beside the Shinsaibashi shopping street, so there’s a ton of food and shopping options nearby. Easy check in; you have to collect all your amenities at the lobby. Staff are very friendly and helpful. The rooms are fantastic; very clean, well-equipped and well-designed (love the toilet!). There’s also vending machines and coin laundry machines on several floors of the hotel.

Convenient location, nice & comfort hotel room with many things around. Enjoy to the max with a bunch of friends.

Located in the heart of dotonburi, just a street across the main dontonburi street. Hotel is located opposite the Korean embassy, so security is good in the area. We arrived at the hotel earlier than check in time but they allowed us to check into our rooms. This hotel receives many guests, there were multiple other groups checking in at the same time as my group. Staff also speaks limited English, but was able to communicate with them using google translate. Front counter is at level 1, with a bar counter right beside. Level 2 is a lounge area, with seats and even a pool table! Gym is also located at level 2. Shared washing machines were located at level 15, but guests are required to collect a key to enter the laundry room from the front desk. Rooms were of decent size, but lighting was slightly dark in my opinion. The shampoo, body soaps, hand wash were great, I loved the smell of it!

The overall accommodation here is OK, it's fully self-service, there's not much communication, so it's only suitable for two or three days, and no one will change the sheets for a longer time. The geographical location has pros and cons, it's indeed close to the subway, but next to the highway, hospital 🏥, police station, and all kinds of sirens at night. In general, the washing machine is well-received opposite, and has fewer services than the apa opposite. The price is about the same, but I feel that the sheets are not very clean, and the bed base is too narrow, and the Simmons mattress feels bigger than the bed. I accidentally fell off the bed with myself. When I went back and looked at my two calves, there were many red spots on them. I feel that hygiene needs to be improved. It would be better to provide a comb and disposable slippers!

The location is very good, with stations near JR and Osaka Metro. The balcony of the arranged room directly overlooks the Tower of Babel, which is great! At first I was afraid it would be noisy, but the night was super quiet and good. The room also has a microwave, washing machine, etc., suitable for medium and long stay friends. The room area is large enough to open two suitcases. The overall experience was very good and would choose this hotel again if I had the chance.

When checking in, it was a bit confusing to use the code to unlock the key and then use the key to unlock the lobby door again. However, if you have any problems, you can contact the staff via email. They are quick to respond and very helpful. The location of the accommodation is a bit far from the train station. It takes about 8-10 minutes to walk. There is a Lawson on the left and a Family Mart on the right. When walking back and forth every day, it doesn't feel that far. However, there is a train passing in front of the accommodation, so you can hear the train passing all the time. However, earplugs are provided. The room is spacious and not stuffy. The bed is big and comfortable. There is a refrigerator, stove, kettle and microwave. There are glasses, plates, cups, spoons and forks. The bathroom is separated into wet and dry zones. There is a toothbrush and toothpaste, but the toothbrush is very small and hard. It is recommended to bring your own. There is a washing machine in the bathroom, no dryer, but there is a clothesline outside the balcony. There are 7-8 hangers. There is a hair dryer in the bathroom. There is a small trash can in the bathroom with spare trash bags. There is also another trash can in the bedroom. Trash can be thrown together in one bag and thrown away in the large trash can in front of the apartment. There is no cleaning during the stay. However, there is a drawer in the lobby with various items such as towels, trash bags, toothbrushes, irons and vacuum cleaners. If you need anything, you can take it. There are several 2-prong sockets (flat double pins) in the room. You can charge multiple phones or power banks at the same time. Overall, I like it very much. I feel that it is private, quiet, and not too crowded. Apart from the sound of the train, I can't hear any other noise.
