We booked the double deluxe room, it’s very spacious with a big window. Although our room is on the 3rd floor close to the elevator and the street, the room is quiet at night, allow us to get some quality rest. The location is perfect, it’s minutes away from major department stores and busy streets like shinsaibashi. Highly recommend!

Still the best place to stay in Osaka, my 6th or 7th stay in 6 years now. Off the chain value. I cannot believe this place used to do rooms in the low $100's cdn, per night. The service is fantastically attentive and helpful without being stuff or intrusive. Location is the best in Osaka, and specifically Namba. A 8 minute walk to Dotonbori, so right in the heart of the action, but far enough to be away from the unwanted chaos, foot traffic and noise. I might be Hotel the Flag's biggest fan. I have gotten my two travel buddies to make the Flag their frequent go to hotel as well. I will be back in the Spring or by fall/winter of 2026 at the latest.

Spacious family room with two proper double beds and plenty of play space for our kids. Huge bathroom with deep tub and separate shower – a rarity in Japan. Laundry was a lifesaver: 4 washers + 4 fast, efficient dryers (never waited once). Breakfast was excellent, great pastries and fruit. Kids ate happily every day. Perfect location: 3-minute walk to Shinsaibashi station and a covered arcade straight to Namba – easy with little ones, rain or shine. Clean, quiet, super kid-friendly staff. Hands-down our favorite Osaka hotel for families. Already planning to return!
