I spent a few nights at the Dotonbori Hotel, it was exactly what I wanted and expected (from all the tripadvisor reviews). It was in a great and lively location, roughly a 10? minute walk to the closest train station. The room was clean and small but managed to fit all the essentials and the bathroom was decked out in...

This was our first hotel on our trip around Japan. We arrived at 11am after a sleepless overnight flight and were expecting to have to leave our luggage and come back later to check in, but we were able to go into our room straight away! This was a welcome surprise as we could have a much needed rest before... More

I have been staying at Dotonbori Hotel for close to ten years now and my experience is always positive. I love the new beds and pillows they now have (no idea what they're called but they're soft and contoured and gave me the best nights sleeps ever!), the breakfast was varied with everything from Western continental fare and Japanese treats...

Thank you very much always choosing our hotel. As you know,there are two pillows with each bed in the room. We think that bedding is one of the top priority when staying at the hotel. Especially,a piece of pillow is well known to people. It’s called TEMPUR. By the way,have you seen the event at the lobby yet? This event which... More

This hotel is what I expected at this price point in the busiest area in Osaka. ROOMS: Tiny, but efficient. We expected this, so we weren't surprised by how small the rooms were. However, they are efficiently designed and we weren't planning on spending much time in our hotel room, so it was fine. There were two of us in... More

Relatively cheap for Japan standards but has all the basic things you want in a hotel: bed to sleep, ensuite bathroom, English speaking reception, towel and toiletries, and excellent location.
