Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA

6/10 Okay

"Location …actually felt like a maze to get into hotel."

Hotel Monterey Grasmere Osaka

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice and clean hotel, you get the feeling of a luxury hotel from the moment you walk through the doors. Staff were all very kind and friendly. The room is very clean and has ample space overall - there were only a few hangers for your clothes but that wasn't much of an issue for us. We loved that we were within walking distance to Dotonbori as well as many other attractions. Entry to the train station is just outside the hotel as well which was very convenient. We will definitely be looking to stay at Hotel Monterey Grasmere Osaka again next time we are back!"

Namba Oriental Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is a lovely hotel in the middle of the entertainment district of Namba and within easy walking distance to Dotonbori. There are numerous great restaurants and bars close by and Namba walk with all its shopping is approx 50 metres from the hotel. You can easily walk from Namba Station via the underground walkway which makes it very convenient depending on weather. The hotel has complimentary laundry facilities and the guest lounge is great with complimentary alcohol and snacks. The buffet breakfast is delicious with a variety of food options but at 3,600 yen per person there are cheaper options nearby."

Centara Grand Hotel Osaka

10/10 Excellent

"We booked two rooms and both rooms are very clean, modern, spacious and beautifully decorated. The location of the hotel is perfect for us, it is near Namba park, quiet, safe but still within walking distance to transportation. There are many shoppings, cafes and dining options around the areas. This is our 2nd time staying at this hotel. We will definitely choose this hotel again when we visit Osaka in the future. Highly recommended!"

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Shimagamicho?

The ideal time to visit Shimagamicho is during spring (April to early May) and autumn (October to November) when the weather is most pleasant.

Autumn also brings comfortable weather, with cooler temperatures and clear skies. The changing leaves create stunning natural scenery, making it an excellent time for photography and enjoying the local walking trails. The harvest season often means opportunities to try fresh local produce.
