Namba Oriental Hotel

Namba Oriental Hotel

8/10 Good
"The hotel is located in Sennichimae, a busy shopping and dining district, but we had no issues with noise at night. Check-in was extremely slow, with a wait of over an hour. The rooms are very spacious by Japanese standards, but poorly maintained, with stains on the carpet, ceiling and floorboards. Thankfully, the bedsheets and bathroom were clean. A highlight is the lounge, which offers complimentary alcohol and snacks—a great place to unwind each day."

"Overall a decent hotel, it was clean and the staff friendly. The rooms are standard Japanese size. I booked a twin room hoping for a little more room but the room would still be cramped for 2 people. The breakfast was ok, cold eggs, overdone frankfurter sausages, little salad and cereal but the Karage Chicken was nice."
