The Rise Osaka Kitashinchi

Room was comfortable, clean and quiet. Staff helpful and attentive. Convenient location being around 10 minutes walk from Osaka station. The rooms are very small, pretty standard for Japan but something that may surprise western travellers. The only negative is that if you want to travel around the city on your check out day they charge to hold your suitcase, it isn’t much but every other hotel I’ve ever stayed in does this for free.

Nice hotel in a quiet business area. Lots of convenience stores around and higher priced restaurants nearby. More affordable options are a bit farther away. Easy access to several metro and rail lines. Found some hair from previous guests and WiFi was terrible.

Love it

The receptionist made us go back to the room to find the keys 3 times when we were running late for our flight. Would never come back to this hotel.

Es war ein sehr sehr kleines Zimmer mit eingebauter WC-Dusch-Bad-Kabine. Wir konnten den Koffer kaum öffnen, so wenig Platz hatte es. Auch hat die Klima-Anlage direkt auf das eine Bett gezielt, so dass man entweder das Krankwerden riskierte oder schwitzen musste. Meine Hausstauballergie hat auch reagiert (Federbetten und Klimaanlage). Auch wurden nur Abfall entsorgt und neue Handtücher gebracht. Bettenservice gehört hier nicht dazu. Das Personal war nett, jedoch als ich eine Rechnung verlangte, vollständig überfordert. Weiter hielt der Lift immer vom Eingang (1. UG) im EG (Lobby) an, damit geschaut werden konnte, wer weiter hoch fährt. Dies trotz Überwachungskamera im 1. UG vor dem Lift und im Lift. Ich habe mich nicht wohl gefühlt. Das Frühstück (entweder Western oder Japanese) war super. Das gesamte Personal nett. Einzig die Location hat mich nicht wirklich überzeugt. Auch hatte es aussen 2 "Homeless People", was mir für das Quartier ein schlechtes Gefühlt gab. Sonst in Osaka habe ich nie Obdachlose gesehen. Die U-Bahn-Station war auch relativ weit weg im Vergleich zu anderen Unterkünften, wo wir nicht soweit den Koffer schleppen mussten. Das war aber meine ungenügende Abklärung. Gefühlt ein 2-Stern-Hotel, auch wenn es 3-Sterne hat. Ich habe weitere 3-Stern-Hotel auf meiner Japanreise gehabt, die deutlich auf höherem Niveau waren. Auch die Fotos auf dem Netz waren sehr gut "gemacht", um nach mehr auszusehen.

The breakfast was good though not buffet style or selection variety (eg., Western or Japanese). The location is in Osaka city center and close to shops and transportation. However, the room is small, bathroom is tight, and work area barely fits a small MacBook. The hotel has paid laundry, no fitness center and no onsen/pool.

Tiny room, no hot water, they do charge early check in 2000jp/hour, only pricy dinning available

Great location. Friendly staff. Good

Our stay was ok. Room was small. Front desk staff not so helpful. Cleanliness was average.

Bathroom with a bad smell. Bathroom is similar a airplane size. Good location, price above average compared to others. I was expecting a better hotel.

Ooof not my favorite place to stay at all, bathrooms and rooms were tiny and felt old. The are is ok and near subway . Staff were very nice . That was the only plus

It is a well-maintained property. The staff is very friendly. It’s a great hotel and we look forward to visiting again.

The hotel room was good even tho we accidently booked a japanese style room with a floor bed so space was limited but room was overall good

Great and friendly staff. Location was centralized with convenience stores and train station nearby.

Clean, beautiful, welcoming and kind

Great Hotel, very calm, excellent breakfast, very comfortable ! I recomend this Hotel.

of the 2 reception staffs, one was amiable but the slender figured lady was'nt. She displayed condescension when luggage storage was requested, and smile vanished or never appear before. We were taken by surprise when luggage storage fee was charged at yen500 per piece.

Room were nice and staff were very friendly and accommodating- would definitely recommend this hotel

Friendly staff, niece roms, free Coffe.great location

Very friendly and helpful staff.
