Hotel Forza Osaka Kitahama

Hotel is clean but there are only 2 elevators and 17 floors this means that you will need to wait very long to go up to your room especially during check out check in and cleaner times often the elevator was too full for us to enter. There are no microwaves or coffee in rooms (all on first floor) so many people go up and down

I booked the standard double room. The location of the hotel is great. If you are coming from Kitahama station via the Sakaisuji line, please use exit 6 because there’s a lift! I didn’t try the breakfast so no comments. The reception staff were all very polite and helpful. You can store your bags well before the 2pm check in time. You can also store your bags after checking out. In room amenities are pretty basic, there’s no water provided in room. You can get in on the ground floor. Also has all day coffee and tea option. The ice maker and laundry is located together. Just be careful because it’s quite cramped in the room and the heat from the dryer can make the room super humid and uncomfortable. You can scan and download the app to pay via card if you don’t have coins. The room is comfortable for 1 pax and cosy for 2. 3 or more and a war will start. Bedding is comfortable and there’s a massage pillow as well. Shower come with a small tub to soak, which is a blessing at the end of the day.

We had a great stay but the pillows were not comfortable. Location is very close to 2 subway stations that made it easy for you to go around the city. Osaka castle is close to the hotel and you can go walking. Breakfast was fantastic! There are many small restaurants around. Midosuji road was also very close and we could enjoy the Christmas lights set in the street.

This hotel is strategically located between kitahama (4mins) and yoshibaya (8mins) station, near to everywhere. Provided a massager and great hard/soft pillow for us to rest after a long walk, the shower amenities also very good quality...

Really nice and clean hotel. Rooms are decently sized. Had a laundry room on the 2nd floor. There is free coffee and a water machine in the lobby. I really liked the shower with all the jets. The room also had a massage pillow too. I had to take away one point because there is only 2 elevators for the whole hotel. Ay around 10:50-11 when people are trying to check out, you might be waiting a long time for the elevator, ans when it does come it will probably be so full there is no space, so when checking out try and beat the 10 mins before rush.

Ive come back again and will do that again and again. Comfortable and also quiet at a price which makes sense.
