Exceeded expectation
I was very excited to stay here. Fell in love with the attention given to the design details. The location was great. Lots of nice restaurants and cafés within walking distance, and the walk to nearby stations is not too far.
The room itself that we booked was a reasonable size. The beds are a little on the harder side but still comfortable, though the absence of a top sheet solely in favour of a doona was an unusual experience for me personally. The daily room cleaning made everything feel constantly fresh, which was great. The air-con could only be set to 22°C which would have been better if it could have gone lower, but it sufficed. The curtains block out the light really well, and we couldn’t hear the traffic and the other people staying either. The restaurant was overpriced, in my opinion, but it is a beautiful space to spend some time in. The fitness room is a bit light on variety of equipment but you can still manage to get a good workout done there.
Service was friendly and English was good. All in all, very happy with the experience and I would stay here again.

This hotel is extremely convenient if you were going to be taking the Osaka railway daily. It is about two blocks away and there are many convenient stores in the area. There are a lot of food options just right around the corner. The only thing I would say is if you are American and looking for an American breakfast this is not the place for you. The breakfast was amazing and coffee and staff were great.

Loved this hotel. The Grand Room with King Bed, and Corner (Tatami) was super spacious and beautiful. Excellent breakfast each morning. The location is perhaps not the most exciting, but it is a short taxi ride from many attractions.
