Top Kikoji Temple Hotel Reviews

The Royal Park Canvas - Osaka Kitahama

10/10 Excellent

"Very well presented hotel attached to a metro station, so good transport options. The room was a good size, clean and the air conditioning and heating worked well. There was a good range of items at breakfast. It did get very busy at breakfast at later times; staff tried hard to keep everything topped-up, but there could be things missing. Another coffee machine or keeping the filter coffee topped-up would be useful. I would definitely stay at this hotel again."

Hotel New Otani Osaka

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent luxury hotel"

APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Namba Ekimae Tower

8/10 Good

"The property was conveniently located near public transportation and within walking distance of many sightseeing attractions. However, I was disappointed by all the extra charges, including fees for the washer and dryer and access to the gym. There was also no iron available in the room. With so many basic amenities costing extra, the stay felt less relaxing and didn’t really give me the vacation experience I expected, especially in such a tourist-friendly location."
