Spa Hotels in Osaka

"Good hotel with spa with mediocre services.  The room was neat, clean and feeling new.  However, staffs are not familiar with English, not even talking Mandarin. Using the translator with poor voice input was troublesome and sometimes it interpreted wrong meanings. Room service if missed will not be provided again on that day. Also, there were many spa-only visitors simply lying on the spa floor.  Parts of the male spa were under construction and one night there were no 40 degree Celsius or higher pool as they were all under cleaning at the same time. The ground of the spa was very slippery, mostly because many visitors did not bother to rinse themselves well after using the conditioner. The breakfast buffet is good in terms of food choices and environment. But I dislike the scrambled eggs, which had a texture tasted awful."

"Overall, a great experience. Rooms we (my family and my brother’s ) stayed in were very spacious with a great harbor view. The breakfast was superb. Staffs were extremely helpful. When I forgot to bring a knife to cut a melon, the front desk staff made an arrangement with the room service and delivered 8 pieces of melon to my room! It was just an amazing, heartfelt service!! The location was a little remote, but I believe it was worth it with the quality of hotel at a reasonable price, especially if you plan to rent a car to drive around the city. I will probably come back to this hotel when I visit Osaka next time. One small complaint: it doesn’t make a lot of sense why the hotel guests have to get parking tickets every time in & out. The hotel should simplify the process. It was a very confusing system for beginners."

Staff members are attentive, gracious, and ever-ready to enhance your stay with personalized service that harks back to a bygone era of hospitality. Imperial Hotel Osaka is more than just a place to stay—it’s a journey through time, enriched by elegance and tradition.

"Natural Hot Spring Asagiri-no-Yu Dormy Inn Premium Namba Annex Stay: A Perfect Blend of Convenience and Japanese Hospitality My stay at Dormy Inn Premium Namba Annex was a delightful surprise. Nestled in the bustling Namba district, I discovered a hidden gem offering an immersive natural hot spring experience—a true 'small but certain happiness.' **Location is the biggest highlight:** The hotel is just a 5-minute walk from Namba Station, surrounded by pharmacies, izakayas, and department stores. It's incredibly convenient for returning after an evening of shopping, making it a godsend for travelers looking to explore Osaka extensively. **Hot spring experience exceeded expectations:** 'Asagiri-no-Yu' is the hotel's centerpiece. While not huge, the natural hot spring water felt wonderful, leaving my skin smooth. There are indoor and outdoor baths, with simple greenery adorning the outdoor area. Soaking in the hot spring while enjoying the evening breeze instantly melted away the day's fatigue. Do note that the public hot springs have separate male and female hours, so remember to check the schedule upon check-in. **Room design is practical and thoughtful:** We chose a Japanese-Western style room. It wasn't exceptionally spacious, but the storage was excellent, allowing us to fully open our luggage without feeling cramped. The yukata (Japanese robes) were of good quality and added to the ambiance for photos. The bathroom had a separate wet and dry area, and toiletries were comprehensive—even the comb had a massage function. These small details showed genuine care. **Service was efficient and warm:** The front desk staff spoke fluent English, and check-in was swift. They proactively informed us about hot spring hours and recommended local eateries. Every day, staff greeted us with smiles when we left and helped with our luggage upon return. Their politeness was just right—not overly enthusiastic, but comfortably warm. **Minor drawbacks:** The breakfast selection wasn't extensive, primarily Japanese set meals, and the taste was decent but not outstanding. If you visit during peak season, you might have a short wait for an available spot in the hot spring. Overall, this hotel perfectly balances 'convenience' and a 'Japanese hot spring experience.' It's especially well-suited for tourists who want to explore Osaka's city center, dine, and still enjoy a hot spring. The value for money is excellent, and I'll very likely choose this hotel again on my next visit to Osaka."

"No Chinese-speaking staff at the hotel! It's a fair distance from Umeda and not particularly close to the subway station. For families with young children, I'd advise caution, as the walk back after a day of shopping might just make you want to stay in. Skip the hotel breakfast; at 100 RMB per person, you'd get far better value by simply grabbing something from a convenience store. The drinks selection at the happy hour/lounge was decent, but the snack options were very sparse. The room was only cleaned once during our four-day stay. What's more, upon check-in, we found the room to be quite dirty; the crevices of the sofa near the window and the corners of the bed were filthy. All in all, I definitely wouldn't stay here again."

"Good location, near Namba Station, Dotonburi and Shinsaibashi. 7-11 and Lawson is nearby. Room is rather small but decent for the price. Front desk staff is helpful but not so proficient in English so be prepared to use translation app when communicating with them. Only 1 downside - coin laundry is not available. Overall a pleasant stay."

"The room was small but very clean and well-equipped. You can pick up toiletries you need, as well as nutritional supplements and face masks, from the lobby. There's a 7-Eleven convenience store downstairs, and the service was excellent. Every day, they'd give us a spa code so we could use the hot spring anytime. The only downside is that the location is a bit far from the subway, but it's great if you enjoy walking. Facilities: Excellent Cleanliness: Very clean Environment: Good Service: Good"

"## Pros: Conveniently located near Osaka Metro's Kitahama Station🚇, just two stops from the Umeda shopping district, and not far from Shinsaibashi. While there aren't many restaurants directly around the hotel, it's primarily surrounded by office buildings and financial institutions, adjacent to the Osaka Stock Exchange. ## Cons: Some staff members were very professional, such as a young gentleman who spoke Chinese. However, some staff had an indifferent attitude, like a middle-aged woman in the restaurant. A few individual employees displayed poor service, lacked a service-oriented mindset, and provided a very unsatisfactory experience – for instance, a young, slender Japanese female employee with her hair in a bun. I hope not to be served by her again. ## Facilities: ① The windows can be opened to a certain degree, which is very useful for regularly ventilating the room and preventing a musty smell. ② The room is small, but the layout is cleverly designed and generally quite functional. However, the shower area is too cramped, making it difficult to turn around, which negatively impacts the user experience. ## Suggestions: It would be great if the breakfast variety could be rotated every 1-2 days, and if the entry cutoff time could be adjusted to 09:30."

"Love this quiet and peaceful hotel and the surrounding....will stay again the next trip. We stayed one night before heading to Kansai airport ( 5 mins train ride) My son was so elated to enjoy the onsen due to his scoliosis and his pain was eased. Good breakfast with a fantastic seaview. Be there and see for yourself. About 10mins walk from Rinku town station. Should you intend to leave your baggages at the station, there are 2 options , locker or pay 500 yen per pc at one of the shops providing storage service. You can then freely head off to Premium outlet and back before 8pm (shop closure) to airport. Highly recommend Saba fish at OOTOYA - Rinku premium...pls google exact location."

"We used this hotel to go to Universal Studios Japan as a gift for our child's graduation. Access from the nearest station wasn't very good, so it was a bit of a hassle to get around when we were tired, but there was a large public bath so we were able to relieve our fatigue, which was great. The room was clean and there was a convenience store nearby, so it was convenient. The front desk staff were kind and the service was very good. We will use this hotel again. Thank you for giving us fond memories!"
