SARASA HOTEL Shinsaibashi

Sarasa Hotel Shinsaibashi was a great hotel for my trip. I arrived before my check-in and was able to leave my bags with the front desk as I explored the city before check-in. Room was clean and had everything I needed. Location is excellent in terms of being close to subway, Dotonbori, etc. Hotel also had washer/dryer which came in handy!

Walkable distance to train stations and a nearby 7 11 store

It is close to shops the subway and younare walking distance from most of the intresting things you would want to do

We booked as a family of four indicating the ages of our children. Upon arrival we notice there was only bed setup for 3 of us and we were charged on site for the an “extra child”. That only gave us a single extra futon without any amenities, not even a bath towel, not to mention everything only has 3 sets such as toothbrush and slippers. The room is of poor design, with the Japanese style folding screen across the window which does not block lights. The lights from the shops around was so bright even at night and difficult to fall asleep. The humidifier is smelly and gives poor odour - however in Japan it’s so dry we just have to use it. The only good thing about the hotel is its relative good position and close proximity to shops

Family room was great! We had the japanese / western style room... it had 2 queen beds (or bigger double?) and 2 singles set up japanese style. It was awesome. Room was very spacious, very clean, very close walk to the mall which then goes on to Dotonbori.

Good value for money. Good location and clean hotel.

The room was reasonably sized for the price albeit the bathroom was tiny, it did have an excellent ac unit. Staff were very friendly and helpful, the hotels location is great, being a 10 minute walk to dotonburi.

Nice

The room was very clean and we really appreciated the option to sleep on futon or bed, as well as the soaking tub! Several of our group really loved the soaking tub, especially with the amount of walking and stressnavigation from our trip.

Clean room, fast checkin process and good English-speaking staff. Room was cozy and had really good ac.

The staff was great. The room is old but clean. The bed is hard and the WiFi is spotty.

Had a great stay

Great place to stay for single travelers. I stayed for 4 nights in July and the air conditioning worked great and location is fantastic. Train around the corner or underground walkways to other train stations. Fanatics restaurants and shopping underground Cristal mall all the way to Shin Sai Bashi Suji to Dontonbori. Definitely worth the price I paid for the room. Wouldn’t take the wife here but for single travelers for the price can’t beat it. Just have to figure out how to keep the AC on all day which was simple. The smells funky without the AC so leave it on low all day. Free coffee downstairs but no daily cleaning so you need to go downstairs to change towels etc between cleaning days. Fun Fun Fun!

The property doesn't offer any amenities its like a hostel imo. No complimentary toiletries and amenities. You have to buy the toiletries and slippers are used they only provide the lining and it's not even effective. You can only have a cleaning day once with our 4 nights stay. I don't recommend even for budget traveling..

Our second time staying at this hotel. First time was last year. Still Absolutely adore their service and accessible to all services within walking distance. We have decided that this is OUR hotel every time we visit Osaka again.

Very good stay in room #1204. The ONLY complaint is the water temperature fluctuated when taking a shower. All 3 in our party experienced this. Initially, I thought maybe the temp was changing because someone else in our room flushed the toilet or was running the water, but that was not the case. The hotel should look into stabilizing the temperature so no one gets injured/scalded from a sudden rush of hot water.

The room is spacious for 3 people with 3 beds. Loved the location and very nice staff.

Good basic hotel.

Close to everything

Lovely staff, quick and easy checking in. Great room, clean and comfy. Not loud at all didn’t need to use ear plugs my whole stay. Had its own air conditioning unit/heat pump for the room which was really handy for the summer weather. Walking distance to food, shops and trains.
