Centara Grand Hotel Osaka

10/10 Excellent

"Luxury hotel in the heart of Osaka, walking distance to lots of shops, food and attractions. The rooms are spacious with robes and slippers provided. Fabulous bar and restaurant on the 33rd floor with sweeping views of the city."

Cross Hotel Osaka（ORIX HOTELS & RESORTS）

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and tidy. They offered pyjamas which was amazing! Never been to a hotel that did that and it was awesome. It is so well located, Dotonbori was literally at our doorstep. Even though it’s a modern do it yourself style of hotel it was a good experience"

Hotel Monterey KOBE

10/10 Excellent

"고베역에서 도보 10분? 거리에 있는 호텔인데 근처에 편의점 많고 돈키호테가 바로 앞에 있어서 지내기 좋았음 온천도 상주직원이 직접 라커키를 주는 시스템 좋았다! 근데 개인수건 가지고 들어갔는데 내가 탕에 들어가있는동안 누가 내 수건 훔쳐감 이거말고는 좋은기억만 있는 호텔"

Kobe MerikenPark Oriental Hotel

8/10 Good

"We booked this hotel 6 months ago and asked for a quiet room. They put us next to a family with a constant crying baby in and out of their room and balcony banging around. It amazes me that they had 6 months to manage our request!! However the room itself was really nice and an amazing outlook over to the sea. The breakfast was average. We did go to the roof Terrace twice for a drink and found the head bar man unhelpful and unfriendly. We asked to try the house wine which comes by the glass before ordering but were faced with a rather direct and blunt ‘NO’ which we found awkward. Not a great experience and the hotel ultimately misses out on business."
