Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA

Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA

8/10 Good
"Excellent Location, and Helpful Tips We had a very good stay at Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE Osaka and would happily return! Location: Fantastic! Hotel sits atop a huge shopping complex with easy train access, a restaurant floor with plenty of choices, and basement access to a grocery store, McDonald’s, and a pharmacy. Despite the hotel’s size, elevator waits were never over five minutes. Breakfast & Service: Good variety at breakfast of both Eastern and Western fair, with staff efficiently managing crowds. Check-in was quick, English-speaking staff were helpful, and housekeeping was excellent. The Room: Our standard double was quiet but tiny. Fitting luggage was a daily game of Tetris! Ask about luggage storage for empty bags if staying several nights. Blackout curtains were excellent, outside noise virtually nonexistent, deep tub was great for soaking. A Few Tips: Bring your own pillow! The hotel’s polyethylene-filled pillows were uncomfortable for us. We bought replacements at a nearby home store. The combo washer-dryers were small and left heavier items very damp. We used a coin laundry five minutes away by taxi and had clean, dry clothes in about 90 minutes. Bring plenty 100-yen coins. The hotel does offer a reasonable laundry service if you wanted to use that instead. Arriving before 3 p.m.? Expect a crowded lobby as guests wait for rooms. Bottom Line: Excellent location, convenient transportation, breakfast, and helpful staff make this a great Osaka base."
