Miyako City Osaka Hommachi

The rooms are very modern, as is the bathroom. Everything worked flawlessly, including the heating/cooling system. The location is easily walkable to Dotonbori, but far enough away to be quiet and less chaotic. The lobby has free coffee, tea, and soft drinks from 7am until 10pm. They also have a coin-operated wine station that has a red and white wine plus 4 different Sakes. The lobby also has lots of comfortable chairs and sofas to sit and enjoy your beverage of choice. 50 yen per glass, super cheap and pretty good. The hotel has 4 washer/dryer combo units that cost 700 yen/load and work really well, i.e., your clothes will be dry at the end of the cycle. Also, the washer usage can be monitored on your in-room TV. There is no need to guess if the machines are in use or if your clothes are done washing. Just check on your TV! The hotel is only 2 blocks from the Sakaisuji-Hommachi metro station, which is really handy. Tons of good restaurants within walking distance. I highly recommend the Miyako City Osaka Hotel.

Super close to the metro, and a few stops away from the osaka castle and the Dotonbori street. Also has an amazing ramen and cafe spots near by. It’s called “no name” and it was amazing ramen after a long touristy day. Room was spacious enough for me and my friend. It had lots of amenities and a hairdryer so that might help u not pack these things. Staff super helpful and friendly, we asked them to ship our luggage to tokyo and they organized it. Make sure they fill for u the forms in japanese (don’t fill it in english) u might need to use google translate a bit but all good and everyone was so patient with us. It was clean, comfortable, and safe for female travelers.

- Room was very nice and the bathroom was also really modern. We enjoyed the 3 nights here :) - Breakfast was fun and arguably the best we had over our stays in Tokyo, Kyoto and Hiroshima too. We found there to be a lot of cool things to eat and the chefs switched a few things daily, which was a bit of a change up…but they kept the best options. - Located only 10-15mins walk from Dotonbori and Shinsaibashisuji for plenty of restaurants, plus only 25-30mins walk to the Osaka castle which was also fine for stretching the legs after an intercity trip! - Right across the road from a great little cafe spot called “The Coffee Market Lab”. We started each and every day here before we started adventuring and the different coffees we tried were delicious :) - Free assortment of drinks downstairs in the lobby area until 10pm which included water, soft drinks and if you wish, for a small fee, wine etc. This was a welcome surprise for refreshments free of charge.

The hotel building, equipment and staff all represent a professional attitude to serve their guests perfect leisure time and well being. The lounge area with free drinks and private-like leisure spaces provide an initial positive experience for the arriving guests, the size and equipment of the room, especially the quality and spaciousness of the bathroom are exceptional, not even speaking of the balcony which is almost unique at Japanese metropolitan hotels. The breakfast buffet provided a large variety of Japanese and Chinese style food, incl. dumplings and fresh specialities even varying during the days. The hotel is located in the prestigious Hommachi district of Osaka, which provides good accessibility of several metro lines, and is considered quiet and safe district.

Love, love, loved this hotel! I was surprised how high the standard was for the price. My room was great with a balcony, high up with a view. It was soundproofed so very quiet. The bed was the softest most comfortable I'd experienced in Japan. The staff were helpful and quick to give me extra pillows at no extra cost. It had Netflix and other streaming stations on the tv I could QR code to by signing into these accounts on my phone. The room had storage space and aesthetically pleasing aspects. The foyer area was high end and stylish offering lovely seating areas and access to free coffee and soft drinks. The location was excellent in a downtown, "nice" area that was close to different subway entrances, convenience stores at the doorstep including a supermarket. If I return to Osaka I will be staying here again.
