Reviews
The front desk staff arranged for a room with an amazing view. The floor attendants were attentive and thoughtful. When it rained, the bell staff didn't hesitate to lend us an umbrella.
The Teppanyaki restaurant on the 10th floor was absolutely fantastic.
The only minor downside was that the shower water pressure was low and it wasn't hot enough; I think it might need some maintenance. Despite that, it will likely still be our top choice for our next trip to Osaka. We hope it continues to improve!
2. The room is very dusty whenever the housekeeping clean the room. That shows it is not clean enough.
3. Reception counter - ********, *****, ******* and a local ******** lady staff provide excellent service. Besides them, there’s a male staff (looks like ***** or ******* ***********) avoid answering me when I asked him about the routes I wanted to go. No good for him. People will think he’s trying to shed his responsibilities.
My room is a bit large with accommodate us comfortably. Breakfast has 6 types of ice creams, delicious. I drive to the hotel and it’s easy for parking, 3300 yen per 24 hrs. It’s reasonable price. Love this hotel so much.
