Kashihara Bar Hotel

"It’s a beautiful property in a great location. Staff are very nice. I have a couple complaints, which is why I tagged it as low as I did. 1. They provide two small bottles of water. To get more I had to call room service and pay for them. I’ve stayed at many hotels in Japan for a third the price that provide as much water as you need. 2. Same thing with coffee. They provide the minimum amount. 3. The restaurants are horrendously expensive. The sushi place had really good reviews but a very limited menu. It was just OK. Nothing special. 4. Oh yes, and at check-in. Which begins promptly at three. There’s a big line up. Don’t try to check in early at Hotel Nikko…At least not if you’re just a typical guest. Perhaps they have a special service for VIPs I don’t know. Overall, it feels like a place where the accountants are in charge. I won’t hurry back. They’re stingy. And the staff, friendly as they are don’t seem particularly well treated. I think upper management could do a better job. You’re in the hospitality, business folks, act like it."

"I had an absolutely amazing stay at the Swissotel in Osaka and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. The location is unbeatable, being right above the train station made getting around incredibly easy. It’s also just steps away from the incredible restaurants and bars/clubs in the Dotonbori area. The hotel itself is stunning, with excellent amenities that made the stay even more enjoyable. On top of that, the staff were exceptionally kind and helpful throughout our visit. Their laundry service was also very quick and Very gaily priced. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again."

"Awesome hotel and service "

"The room is clean, but the front office staff weren’t very friendly and they weren’t very accommodating. I felt that they did not care for foreigners. I saw that they were more gentle with Japanese customers more than foreigners. The breakfast buffet was OK. I feel like they didn’t stock up quickly. "
