"Staff was very friendly and helpful! Felt very at home despite being thousands of miles away from home. There aren’t too many restaurants or shops within walking distance, however very close to the train station which gets you to Sannomiya within 10 mins! Our room and bathroom were very neat and comfortable (the pic I uploaded is the day we left, so don’t think that’s how we walked into it the first day!). I was able to walk and/or take the train to my work conference at the conference center...

Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA

8/10 Good

HOTEL UNIVERSAL PORT

Didn't try the restaurants but it's a short walk over to the USJ boardwalk area with lots of options. Good size room for four people and separate beds.
