Not the closest hotel to USJ but only a short walk. Nice large room. Close to train station.
with car park just next to it.
Only complain is got waken up midnight by someone running at the corridor and dragging their luggage.
Basic but clean rooms. Friendly, helpful staff. Excellent location for Universal Studios, restaurants and station into central Osaka. We had not pre-paid for breakfast, so paid approx $31 AUD each as we ate at the hotel both mornings for convenience. The buffet had a great variety of Asian and Western food.
Pros: very spacious layout for a hotel room, it felt more like an apartment. Separate area to store coats and luggages was a nice touch. Bathroom was on its own away from toilet, which was great for our family. Close by to Universal Studios and many restaurants. Hotel breakfast buffet was varied and delicious; their karage chicken, French toast and fresh orange juice was amazing. Cute esthetics gear towards young kids, so many cute Minon photo ops. This is a very family oriented hotel. Staff for the most part spoke English which was made things easier for us. Easy check out and check-in. We booked this hotel to go to Universal Studios and it was a short walk to and from the front gate of the park.
Cons: it was very dusty? Not so much dust on top of shelves but more like flying in the air. Pillows were odd to me, they had little pebbles in them. Worst part was found stray hairs in bathtub before any of us showered.
All in all I would recommend this hotel, it’s very budget friendly and our family really enjoyed staying here.
This hotel was amazing for our plan to go to Universal Studios! Great location! Staff was so nice. They have a money exchange machine with an ok rate there but very convenient. They have different food options on site as well which is very helpful. Overall very enjoyable stay in a great location and walkable to the park and the City Place area with lots of restaurants.
If you prefer a quiet rest away from USJ, this is a good place to consider. The staff are very helpful and the facilities, amenities are adequate. Walking distance to the shopping and dining areas.
it was a little of a walk from universal studios but walkable. there was a little shop and mini restaurant on the lobby level which was nice. i simply wanted to stay here for the experience, and was worth it :))
Excellent hotel to stay. Room is spacious and nicely decorated. Suitable for family with kids. Superb view of the port and sea. Fabulous breakfast buffet spread...simply love it. Will surely come back and stay again:)
