Top Shin-Kobe Ropeway Hotel Reviews

Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA

8/10 Good

"This is a really big restaurant with so many travelers from different countries. Everything goes smoothly during check in and out. Convenient transportation but still very hard to find everywhere, that’s due to this complicated area. The restaurant is fine, but next time I would like some quiet area. Unlike many same standard restaurants, they didn’t offer bottled water and cosmetic products."

APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Namba Ekimae Tower

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel! Right next to the LRT Station too!"

THE RISE OSAKA UNIVERSAL BAYSIDE

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is in a residential neighborhood and is only a 5-minute walk from the train station. It is beautiful, clean, and spacious. The bathroom has a washer, but no dryer. You have to hang your clothes on the clothesline on the balcony or in the bathroom and turn on the bathroom fan. It takes at least an hour and a half for your clothes to dry in the bathroom. We were there in August, so our clothes dried fastest outside. It was a great experience for us. The only thing I didn't like was that they served the same two breakfasts every day. It's not bad if you’re staying for a weekend or less than four days, but it’s not ideal for those staying more than a week unless you don't mind eating the same thing every day. The staff was very respectful and welcoming."

HOTEL UNIVERSAL PORT

8/10 Good

"We arrived late to check in to our room from our flight. Check in process was simple and easy. The only issue we came across was not having many food options due to how late it was and our kids have allergies. Very easy and convenient walk to USJ and City Walk. The building is a little bit old but they do maintain it well and it’s clean."

HOTEL UNIVERSAL PORT VITA

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was great and location to USJ"

LIBER HOTEL OSAKA

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing onsen with true mineral waters, so relaxing after a long day. Close to free ferry over to the Osaka aquarium and directly across from the train station and Universal Studios"

The Singulari Hotel & Skyspa at Universal Studios Japan

10/10 Excellent

"While the room wasn’t incredibly spacious, the space had been used well in terms of design and furniture— my personal taste is not loving a shower-over-bath for comfort (particularly after a long day walking with sore legs) however that’s not a deal breaker for me. Friendly staff, and great amenities as well as an awesome location both for public transport access and access to universal studios"

Hotel Monterey KOBE

10/10 Excellent

"clean and cozy. It is located in the middle of the downtown"

ART HOTEL Osaka Bay Tower

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms were spacious and super clean. We didn’t eat in the hotel as lots of options in the shopping centre outside. We had an issue with the safe on the last day and they were there to fix it within minutes. Perfect place to stay."
