Hotels near Tennoji MIO, Osaka

This is an older hotel with great value for money. The rooms are spacious, clean, and tidy. The breakfast offers a good variety of dishes that taste great, and the service is excellent. It's super convenient for getting around, located right next to the subway, JR, and Kintetsu stations, about 30 meters away. You can even take the Sakia Line directly to Kansai Airport. On the second floor, there's a Kintetsu department store and a Sushiro (which is cheaper than in Hong Kong and China, with sea urchin sushi only costing 7 RMB!).

This hostel was my favorite during this trip, and I only wish I could've stayed longer than two nights! The rooms use a password lock system, which changes regularly. Each room accommodates nine people and has two toilets and one shower, which is a sufficient amount. I didn't take photos inside the room, so I can only share pictures of the surroundings near the hostel. Compared to Namba, Tennoji is much quieter and cleaner, and the transportation is very convenient. It felt like a lot of the guests were long-term residents, and everyone was very well-behaved.

The room was small but pretty clean. The only downside was no bathtub, which felt a bit strange for a trip to Japan! The soundproofing wasn't great – I could hear the subway and noises from the next room, so light sleepers should be aware. However, the bed and pillows were really comfortable! The location was excellent, less than a 10-minute walk straight to the subway, and there's a large supermarket right across the street.

The hotel is located right next to JR Tennoji Station. From the Central Gate, take the elevator up to the second floor, which connects to a pedestrian overpass. Walk diagonally across the overpass to the opposite side, where you'll find another elevator next to a drugstore that takes you directly to the third floor. The hotel lobby is on the third floor. Kintetsu Department Store is directly across from the hotel, and an Ito-Yokado supermarket is located on the basement level of the adjacent building. For trips to destinations like Kyoto, Nara, or Kobe, you can conveniently take direct JR trains from Tennoji Station or Osaka Station, without needing any transfers.

The location is convenient, and the facilities and cleanliness are good. However, I was not informed in advance that luggage storage is only allowed for one day, which disrupted my subsequent plans. I've stayed at many VIA INN hotels across Japan, and as long as you have a future booking to return, they all allow you to store your luggage until your next check-in. This was the case at VIA INN Shin-Osaka, Takamatsu, and Fukuoka. Even the Nagoya VIA INN, which is slightly less accommodating, allows you to store one piece of luggage until your return date, even though it limits you to one item per storage. This Tennoji branch was the only one that only allowed one day of storage without prior notice, and that's my main complaint.

This time, I stayed at a small hotel in Tennoji. It has an excellent location with great transport links, and there are plenty of dining and shopping options nearby. The environment is clean and comfortable, making it very suitable for families. The hotel has been open for less than a year, so it's a brand new accommodation. The facilities are new, the environment is tidy, and everything is very well-maintained. The accommodation style is somewhere between a hotel and a guesthouse, offering spacious and comfortable rooms. Housekeeping services are not daily; a full cleaning is done once a week. Towels are not changed daily by default, but you can request new ones anytime. Consumables can also be picked up downstairs, offering a high degree of autonomy. Although it doesn't have guesthouse-style amenities like a kitchen or washing machine, it has all the essential facilities for a comfortable stay, perfectly meeting the needs of short trips. The hotel manager is warm and friendly, providing enthusiastic and attentive service, always doing their best to assist with any issues and showing genuine hospitality. Overall, the stay was excellent. It's new, clean, conveniently located, and combined with the manager's attentive service, it offers outstanding value for money. It's suitable for both short trips and family stays and is highly recommended.

The room was quite small, but the service was excellent. You could see the view right from the window, and both the exterior and the room itself looked exactly like the photos. The location was great, very close to the subway station. However, next time I come, I'd still prefer to stay near Umeda.

This hotel is very new and clean, with a breakfast restaurant and complimentary water on the ground floor. The location next to Tennoji Park is fantastic; it's just across the street from Shitennoji Temple. Getting to Tennoji Station is also very convenient, about an 8-minute walk straight down the road.

Facilities: The room is not big, but it is fully equipped with basic accommodation facilities. Hygiene: The room was clean. Environment: The surrounding environment is quiet, about a 10-minute walk from Tennoji Station, and there is a Don Quijote 2 minutes away, so shopping is convenient. Service: The service staff is friendly.

The best view ever in Osaka! The location is just perfect where all the famous malls are connected with a bridge, it’s just right next to the zoo and big playground for family with kids! Staffs are so friendly and helpful, whenever I requested extra pillow or other amenities, they could deliver it immediately within 10 mins! This is the superb Marriott standard! Love the view! I would come back again! Definitely! Spacious room with a view and full-equipped facilities! We had a wonderful time here!
