The lifts take forever, often leaving guests standing around waiting. Public baths and the convenience store can get overcrowded. The chilly corridors during winter need more attention, especially since it’s a bit of a trek waiting for the lift. Regular room size can feel cramped after a few nights.

explore osaka easily from this central spot

i had a fantastic stay with easy access to nearby attractions, as it only took me a few steps to reach the famous dotombori, and i was thrilled to find that shinsaibashi-suji shopping street was just a 10-minute walk away.

The hotel is near a convenient 7 Eleven, perfect for late-night snacks or quick meals. Consider bringing layers for chilly corridors.

Would be happy to recommend for a brief stop-in

Clean room, friendly staff, with easy access to transportation options, including connections to major lines and the nearby convenience store for quick snacks.

The location offered easy access to the Osaka City Air Terminal and was a short walk from the vibrant Namba Walk. Public baths with sauna provided a relaxing escape, and the cleanliness of the room was commendable. However, the atmosphere felt unwelcoming, largely unfitting for families or tourists. The surrounding area did have a convenient 7 Eleven, but the overall experience left much to be desired.

i had a great stay at apa hotel & resort osaka namba ekimae tower! the bathtub was surprisingly comfy, and i loved that it saved water. the room was immaculate, the bed super cozy, and the staff were friendly and helpful! loved the location, too, as it was right near the station.

I really enjoyed my stay, especially the relaxing public baths and the chance to unwind with a soothing foot massage. The room was spotless and really comfortable, but the lifts seemed a bit slow during busy times. If you want a great place to crash after exploring, this is it! 😊
