THE RISE OSAKA UNIVERSAL BAYSIDE
Very spacious, clean and new. Location is a bit off but works for us cause we have a car. There’s a parking lot 1 min walk away. The rooftop onsen is 5 star hotel class!

STAYAT OSAKA SHINSAIBASHI east
We loved this property. The room we booked was big enough for all our luggage and a lot bigger than other rooms in the area! It’s next to a 7/11 as well and this made it perfect for late night Konbini runs! :)

Hotel conveniently located near train stations and many restaurants & 7/11. Good size room with Laundry and dinning table and chairs. Just what we needed to crush out after a long of touring.
