My favourite property in Namba. Its dead centre of Dotonbori and also quiet and and very clean property. Tiny rooms but I was given a disabled room and big bed. Just few meters away from Dotonbori’s main attractions. Eventhough cleaning was not done daily, I was getting regular clean towels and bins were emptied. I will stay here again. 100%

Very nice hotel in a premium part of Osaka. Excellent Japanese/American breakfast, free coffee/tea and a free pancake machine (very neat), and good toiletries. Literally steps from the best parts of the city, and lovely staff. We made a mistake and didn't utilize the back exit enough which opens to a beatiful canal that you can walk on with shops and also brings you to the highlights of the city.

Joytel is good

The rooms was small but adequate. All spaces in the hotel were clean. Note that they do not clean the room unless your stay is longer than 4 nights. The cafe area was very nice and a welcoming space to spend time with family in the afternoon and evening. Location is ideal with lots of restaurant options in walking distance. I would stay again.

Great hotel in a fab location

Excellent location, very clean, new, comfy beds. Next to the river and close to the action, but quiet soundproofed rooms, and a little cafe space they looked out over the river.

Great location but compact

We stayed for 3 nights as part of a longer trip. The hotel was located very close to the Main Street of Dontonbori with plenty of food and shopping options. Rooms were clean and towels changed daily but rooms not cleaned daily. They were typical Japanese rooms with not a lot of room but plenty of places to put luggage etc. A great location for exploring Osaka. Would recommend Hobo bar and Hedonist for a nice experience / cocktail

Usually don't bother with reviews. But this place was exceptional. High level of English. Very clean rooms. Very comfortable breaky room and view from the lounge/breaky room. Right on the canal. They arranged Yamato for my suitcases to Tokyo. Elevators not congested. (smaller hotel) laundry was easy and machines lock w a pin code and have detergent within the machine :) just everything was great for me. (Canadian from BC)
