"Pros: Good central location, loved the room.
Cons: laundry ruined our stay. There are 8 machines but a very large number of guests wishing to use the machines. Queued for 40 minutes to get to a machine. Machines badly maintained so what would have taken 2 hour wash and dry took 5 - the reason for the massive queues. Nowhere else we stayed in Japan was like this. Don’t stay here if you’re planning a laundry stop.
Room cleaning wasn’t up to scratch with basic items like cups not replaced. Coffee was clearly pre brewed and not barista style with a Nespresso machine like other (cheaper) hotels we have stayed in here.
Super easy to get lost and spent the first hour of our staying running around in Yobodashi Camera. This is partially our fault but don’t use google maps to try and find the hotel. Instead; follow the signs around the shopping complex.
Overall it didn’t feel like good value for money, compared to far cheaper hotels I’ve stayed in around the world. It takes 10 minutes to get out of the complex to find basics like food, coffee etc."
"We had our family of 5. It was so nice and comfortable. The family enjoyed the Onsen. What an experience!
Good Buffet. Hotel very clean and so convenient, made going to the airport super easy:)"
"Fantastic experience at this APA Hotel. The location is perfect for exploring, with easy access to public transit, restaurants, and shops. The room was impeccably clean and the bed was very comfortable. A special shoutout to the staff, who were always welcoming and friendly. Great value!"
"The hotel was well situated above Kitahama station and it can also be accessed via the subway from Yodabashi station which provides access to the Shin-Osaka station.
The room was smaller than we were expecting but it was still comfortable for 2 people, the breakfast option was very good with a good selection to cater for a range of palettes.
A range of amenities was provided in the reception area where guests can pick the amenity they require.
The Royal Park Canvas is a good option which is away from the hustle and bustle of the Dotonburi area but with good transport option so the city can be explored very easily from the doorstep of the hotel."
"Highly recommend if you’re visiting, plenty of things to do nearby and the train station is close by to easily be able to get around. Staff is super helpful and made the process smooth 5/5 stars."
"Look, I'm not gonna lie. When it comes to location, this place is all Aces! Right in the middle of Dotonbori street is a pretty great place to be, if you don't mind stepping out into the chaos of that street. Lots of restaurants, shops, and arcades nearby. That being said, there are some things to consider before you book here.
1: The room is much smaller than you expect. Certainly smaller than the photos represent.
2: There were unidentifiable stains on our carpet. We ended up putting extra towels over them, because God knows what they came from.
3: There was a sewer gas smell that kept appearing in our bathroom, despite us having the fan on.
4: The laundry situation... Look, if the hotel is anywhere near capacity, good luck being able to do your laundry on site. They only have 3 very small washing machines for this huge hotel. They also don't clean the machines very often, from what I could tell.
I'm not going to beat a dead horse here. I've certainly stayed in much worse. It's not a bad hotel. It's just not a great one. If location is the most important thing to you, then feel free to book this hotel for your stay."
