Hands down the best location, as it’s next to the Shin-Osaka station. Amenities were great, they provide an actual quality shaving razor. Also near Family Mart for anyone wanting a budget breakfast or dinner. Highly recommend for tourists.
APA hotels really knows how to make you feel like you broke the bank while continuing to be budget friendly. They will do everything in their power to make sure you have everything that you need and the properties are always in such great locations. You're walking distance from the station and there are so many food options.
I chose this hotel because it was close to Shin-Osaka station and had a big Onsen style bath. The hotel met my expectations.
Only down side is my single room was very small although this is very common in Japan.
I'd stay here again.
This hotel was good. We picked a room with a great rate but it was smaller than a cruise ship room. Everything was clean and the staff were all great. Great access to the Shin Osaka station, but little else was around the hotel.
Staff were extremely helpful and so nice to deal with. Great for luggage transfer services. The only downfall was the small room and claustrophobic bathroom
Great hotel, perfect location to travel anywhere in the city. Close to convenience stores and Shinkansen train station. Great room, clean and quiet. Excellent hotel for vacation and business trips.
Great location to train station, but not much to do in local area. But not far from downtown Osaka which was nice. Recommend staying if your planning on being outside the room more than in the room.
Apa Hotels are a great option when you are traveling in Japan. This particular location was conveniently located within walking distance drom the Shin-Osaka subway station. The facilities and rooms are excellent for short or medium term stays. The staff here were super helpful when we had to ship our luggage to another one of their locations in Tokyo.

Nothing special. Close to station and it was good, though.
Enjoyed the onsen during this trip. My second time staying at this particular Apa hotel. Everything is clean and service was great. Easy to check in and to check out. Super close to Shin Osaka station.
The hotel was a great property to stay at for my trip to Osaka. I would definitely book again in the future. Very convenient with being next to a Family Mart, having it's own restaurant, and being so close to Shin-Osaka station for my bullet train travel the following day.
Great location walking distance to the Shinkansen station , only smoking area around the hotel was at the train station small rooms but perfect for what I needed it for I was there for 2 days , what makes this location great is how close the train station is after a long day of traveling it’s a short walk away
Cannot complain about my stay. Very good. Have to get used to the very small rooms in Japan!! Just the way it is. Loved that I could do my laundry on sight and washing powder was included. Staff very friendly and helpful
