Dormy Inn Premium Namba ANNEX Natural Hot Spring
Great location, great staff, would recommend a western bed rather than sleeping on the floor but that was our choice. Baths facilities downstairs were great.

APA Hotel Namba Shinsaibashi Higashi
Room very clean, staff friendly, great location. The only thing is that there is no individual air conditioning.

APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Namba Ekimae Tower
Newer business hotel. Room sizes are exactly what to expect from a business hotel. Room is clean and hotel is quiet. Only negative is the onsite steak house. We ordered a tomahawk, among other things, and it was absolutely awful.
