Hotel Monterey Osaka

Not on the busiest street, but it balances between the distance to the train and a quiet place for some peace.

Although the rooms decor and furniture were showing their age and requires upgrade, the room was very clean. the bed and pillow were so comfortable. The smart TV was helpful with Netflix & Prime available. Breakfast is the best I have experienced yet in hotels in Osaka. A very large buffet style selection and large tables with table cloths and silver cutlery. Very nice indeed.

Room was nice and clean. Great location and near Osaka Station and walking distance to Kitte shopping and restaurants. Also walking within walking distance to Laundry facilities. I would definitely stay here again.

Lovely space, though the room was small by American standards. Within easy walking to Osaka Station was a definite plus.

Loved this hotel!!! It’s charming, and everything about it was lovely. It is near the train station which was really convenient when we came and left. And from the hotel we walked or caught subways nearby to everything. The best meal I had during the entire trip was hotel breakfast buffet. I could write a novel about it. Also, my favorite hotel pajamas were here as well. The front desk staff were so wonderful! They gave us recommendations and helped us figure out a few issues we had … all with a smile and patience. I loved everything.

Lovely 50s style vintage hotel, but with all required amenities in room. Gothic lifts with brass arrow pointers, a first for me in all my travels. Good airconditioning in rooms, and controllable (important in Japanese weather) Bathroom is shower over bath, with deluxe toiletries provided, inc cotton pyjamas.

Two things that I was disappointed with: no laundry facilities on property (though 39 Laundry was a few blocks away so we did go there a few times) and the glass window on the bathroom door. That made me very uncomfortable even if I was with my family. Two things that I loved: water pressure is amazing!!! And the beds are very comfortable. Staff were super helpful in providing directions, helping w takkyubin, and check-in/out were very smooth. Also loved their willingness to lend us umbrellas during the typhoon ;)! We weren’t able to enjoy the breakfast since we’re not big on buffets for breakfast. Would have preferred an Ala carte option instead.

European style hotel. Very close to Osaka, umeda and airport bus. Located in the quiet area of umeda. Very nice place to walk around

We stayed during a construction period and experienced zero issues with noise, staff was extra helpful and accommodating as well. Highly recommend staying here if you are in Osaka. 5 minutes from the station and major shopping areas cannot beat it.

We really liked this hotel. We stayed at a variety of hotels in Japan which we usually pick for location and access. This one close to subway which made it easy to get around and a nice mall just down the street with lots of eating options. The hotel had an old world charm and a European feel. We were on the 13th floor which was extremely quiet. It was lovely to be able to open a window to the courtyard and the option for dimming lamp lighting gave it a cozy feel in the evening. The bathroom was large with lots of counter space. A little room table and chairs nice for coffee break. Staff replenished slippers, pajamas, towels and water daily. Breakfast was amazing and staff fabulous.

The room was excellently cleaned everyday, towels were replaced daily including the sheets, all the staff were very polite and helpful, I love the hospitality of the Japanese people. The breakfast buffet was really good with lots of choices. The air conditioning in the room was excellent. The location of the hotel is excellent, just a minute walk to the Umeda JR train station and the mall is right beside the train station, lots of choices to eat, cafe, restaurants, the corner pizza serves yummy pizza and other stuff. I would definitely stay at Hotel Monterey Osaka again on my next visit to Japan.

Gorgeous property really great photos. No coin laundry. Came here for my birthday and my photos look really pretty.

It looked like something out of a fairy tale. The staff were amazing and helpful. It was close to everything. Highly recommended.

Older property. First room bathroom seemed quite mouldy. Furniture is aged including beds and access wasnt straight forward. However very handy to public transport, dining and shopping.

Although I was only there for 2 nights, the room was very tidy with everything you would expect from a good Japanese hotel. Helpful tip -you can get to the hotel by using the underground ‘garden city’ route. This connects directly to the West station exit and ends at the hotel. To find this west exit, try following directions for JP Tower Osaka

Comfortable accommodation

European themed hotel with an adjoining wedding chapel - very quaint. The breakfast is served in grand banqueting rooms and has a brilliant selection of both western and Japanese food - not disappointed at all. The only let down was the internet connection which was erratic and this may be due to the renovation works nearby?

Cleanliness, location, better space

Great amenities, clean room. The staff was amazing- incredibly helpful and attentive for our group!

This hotel must cater to a majority of Japanese business men more so than international tourists. The majority of room’s printed material included limited English, but the functionality of the room was in Japanese. That made using heat and air temp a guessing game. At least with brute force the window can be opened. But very dertrimental is the main lighting system. There are no main light switches to turn off overhead lighting while the room card is in use. After night one with ceiling lights fully ablaze I got reception to come to the room and show me. It turns out there is a tiny plastic button on the false front of the bedside table. All that anguish could have been avoided with a simple information sheet with check in. The building itself is having exterior cladding work and is wrapped in plastic with construction noise. The interior is a stomach turning ultra kitch take on Viennese decor. So if you like a themed hotel you’ll love it. If not book an APA. The main entrance is confusing. It is at the rear of the building directly facing the rail lines. (Moderately noisy). There are 2 vehicle driveways guests must enter, but the confusion is in having to wade through delivery vans, construction trucks and workers, construction material, and parked cars removed from the elevator for owner pickup. The whole vibe is a mini hell of darkness and fume stench. Even the main entrance is hidden. One night a stranger knocked on my door. The only good point: train station proximity.
