APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Namba Ekimae Tower
There are a few APA Hotels in Osaka but I like this location as it is a close walk to Dotonbori and Namba station. The amenities are nice and clean. Breakfast buffet is amazing.

Hotel Monterey Le Frere Osaka
Location was fantastic and buffet breakfast highly recommended! Great selection available. As soon as you walk out you are in food heaven, the alleyways come to life at night! Not too far from Osaka Railway Station so easy to navigate to for travellers with bags. Good sized room for two people.
