THE RISE OSAKA UNIVERSAL BAYSIDE

10/10 Excellent

"We love the property and amenities. It was very hard to checkin, due to that Expedia or the hotel did not give us a code to checkin and to get into the property. A nice gentleman who works there help us through the process. Remember that this hotel had no front desk."

Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA

8/10 Good

"This is a really big restaurant with so many travelers from different countries. Everything goes smoothly during check in and out. Convenient transportation but still very hard to find everywhere, that’s due to this complicated area. The restaurant is fine, but next time I would like some quiet area. Unlike many same standard restaurants, they didn’t offer bottled water and cosmetic products."

Remm Plus Kobe Sannomiya

8/10 Good

"Excellent location and functional stay with nice views. Pros: Unbeatable location directly connected to Sannomiya Station. Beautiful views of Kobe Bay and the city skyline. Great perks including many tea options in the lobby and a functional in-room massage chair. Cons: Small, clean rooms (typical for Japan but well-designed). Basic amenities with no extra pampering toiletries for women like facial skincare. Good buffet breakfast to start the day with nice views on the 29th floor. A highly convenient, solid choice for exploring Kobe! Staff was helpful and warm."
