I stayed here for 6 days and was very satisfied. The CP value is high! Location: It is close to the train station and is in a big station, so you don’t need to change trains from the airport to the hotel; there are department stores nearby, so it is very lively and you don’t have to worry about food. Hotel: The room is clean and comfortable, not too small, suitable for families, and has considerate electric curlers and foot massagers. Free rice in tea is available at certain times in the evening, and we also had takoyaki. Free drinks, small gifts and supplies for children are also provided, and the hotel staff are friendly and kind. In addition to the recommendation, I will choose to stay here again next time I come to Osaka.

This hotel is very close to Namba station. It is convenient to travel just across the street. The atmosphere inside the hotel is good. We booked a room with a bed on the sofa. It can sleep 3 people, father, mother and child. There are pajamas provided. The bathroom and toilet are separated. There is a hair dryer, hair curler. There is a coin-operated washing machine and dryer on the 7th floor. There is detergent in the room. If you want the clothes to be dry, you have to dry them for 30-45 minutes or more. Overall, it is very good.

great experience and learning Sumo. I sat in the second row and had a great view. The food was good and they gave a free drink at the door. There were lucky people who won the sumo wrestling match. I recommend it.

You can redeem your ticket at the designated Haruka ticket machine, scan the QR code, follow the instructions to select the train you want to take, and even request a designated seat according to your personal needs. It is really convenient. I'm so happy to ride the Hello Kitty Haruka train!

Osaka Castle is one of the largest and most intact available to tour. The interior is entirely a museum with the history of the castle and its many reconstructions. Surrounding area a large park that is beautiful in the right season (like Sakura). Definitely a castle worth visiting.
