Hotel Monterey Le Frere Osaka
I stayed three nights, and my experience was wonderful! I booked a room with a city view, and it was so pretty! The room was clean and roomier than some of the other hotels I booked while in Japan. I have no complaints :) Safe travels!

BRACKETS HOTEL Osaka Hommachi
The room was spacious, the staff were amazing and provided excellent service and all that for a very reasonable price. The accommodation was only a 20 minute walk from Osaka Station. I highly recommend and will stay here again on my next trip to Osaka.

Hotel Monterey Grasmere Osaka
Our first room was awful and depressing with nowhere to put our clothes and luggage. But they moved us to a new room(for a fee which was justified) and it was wonderful. We even had two bathrooms! The area is so fun too! Would go back again.
