Top Nishikyo Ward Hotel Reviews

Hotel THE LEBEN OSAKA

10/10 Excellent

"The location is excellent. The room is spacious with great air conditioning. They give up superior toiletries and slippers. Laundry machines that take cashless transactions were great. The toilet room separate from the sink is a bit annoying but overall the comfort was great. Excellent pillows. Has a soup dispenses, coffee and cold brew too. Definitely will stay here again. WiFi was decent too."

APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Umeda Eki Tower

8/10 Good

"The main issue with this hotel was the terrible lift situation. There seemed to be no rhyme or reason as to which one appeared at any point and we waited for ages every time we went back to our room! There's also no stairs, so we waited 5mins to go just one floor at one point! Aside from that, the cost to use the swimming pool - which was tiny! - was extortionate. On the plus side, our room was spacious, the cleaning staff were lovely and very good, and the location was great."

Candeo Hotels Osaka The Tower

10/10 Excellent

"Very fancy hotel. I personally didn’t get the chance to try the breakfast buffet but the lunch buffet was 10/10 — lots of options. Friendly and helpful staff, clean and welcoming hotel. Family mart right downstairs. 10 min walk from the train station that takes you straight to Dotonbori. If staying during mid October there’s a festival and you can see the higher fireworks from Yodogawa River from your hotel room depending on which side you’re on. If not you can catch the view from the 24hr gym upstairs."
