Hotel New Hankyu Osaka

Hotel was centrally located near most of the railway and subway lines. Airport bus was right in front of hotel and was direct to the Kansai airport without having to do a milk run. One couldn't reserve a seat but had to buy the ticket only on day of departure. Bus ran approximately once every half hour (despite schedule saying frequency was 20 minutes).Hotel had everything I needed as a leisure traveller. It was adequately clean. Bed was comfortable, size of room adequate, had a window, was non smoking. Thoughtfully provided cables for iphone, android charging. Adequate power points. TV, radio, kettle, shower gel and shampoo, hair dryer was provided. Ironing board available to borrow. Had aircond and heater. Though central conditioning was controlled by hotel.

The location is amazing. Right next to 3 major train and subway stations, as well as a dedicated bus terminal for the airport limousine bus. Plenty of great food and shopping options nearby as well. The hotel itself isn't particularly breathtaking or modern, but for business or solo-traveling I would absolutely recommend it.

The location is excellent. First stop from the airport shuttle. Next to subway and JR stations. Right next to all the department stores.

Fantastic location. Staff very helpful. We liked the environmental response to cleaning the room- you could choose what level of cleaning you wanted each day. Bottles of water provided & bar fridge. The included buffet breakfast was superb and my very fussy daughter who usually skips breakfast found something to eat each day- so was well worth it. It was also well organized as even at busy times they could find you a table.

Great location with a lot of touristy services nearby, like the airport bus stop. I like the window covering that blocks out all the ambient light outside. I'm glad my room still had a bathtub. Other rooms just had a shower.
