Walking distance from the subway and train station, walking from u deerhound, go to B4 and the hotel is 1 minute from the B4 exit. Room is really spacious. Great customer service. One of the best hotel service in Japan. I travel To Japan often and the staff at this hotel was very accommodating. Stay here and you won’t regret it. Lots of good restaurants nearby.

Nice little hotel close to everything you need. We stayed here with 2 adults and 2 children 7&10. Had free soft drinks, coffee, tea and soup on offer in the lobby which is handy when you get back on a cold night! Staff were very polite and spoke English. Great prices for a very clean and spacious rooms. They don't serve breakfast but plenty to choose from within walking distance!

Our Family of 5 are well into our first Japan experience and organised a night stay over in Osaka. Hotel88 is a little boutique hotel and was selected due to its room space and site location. The rooms were perfect for us and Dotonnbori st was 2 mins away. I am not one to comment on these pages but the effort Xu and the Team put in to help us on our overnight stay was second to none. Firstly with the gang in tow and a heap of luggage we left our laptop bag at Kansai International Airport on the way to The hotel somewhere through the transfer to T1. With 3k worth of equipment in the bag and coming from Oz I would expect all these items to be gone. Not in Japan and not with Xu’s help. Within the hour she had tracked it down and had a reference number for me to collect the next

We recently stayed here in Family Room 2 with 2 adults and 2 teenagers. The room is spacious with two large king beds, a couch and a bigger than normal hotel fridge (even had a freezer drawer). The foyer is lovely with free drinks all day/night and an area to sit and eat (they do not serve food though - you need to bring your own). There is a 24hr laundry and so many USB ports in the room I’m not sure anyone would ever travel with enough devices to used them all. The location is fantastic - a quick walk from namba station (use exit 26) which has subway, JR and Kansai airport train stations. It’s also located right next to Dotonbori with tonnes of restaurants and street food options available. If you’re a lover of soft beds you might be out of luck. The beds were firm, but

I spent four days in Osaka for hols and found the 88 Hotel very pleasant. The location is excellent both for getting to and from the airport (Namba station) as well as the subway, which I used all the time in Osaka. The staff was pleasant and helpful with directions and on the day I left drove me from the hotel to Namba to get the train to the airport. The room was very clean and quiet. In the room I was not aware of anyone else, and while the room looked on to the street below, I never heard any street noise. At check-in I was told there is a bar service area with drinks. I only had a coffee there the first morning, but it was rather weak so I opted in the future to go out to the street and find a place. Definitely a good place to stay.

I stayed at Hotel 88 Shinsaibashi for 4 nights in Nov 2019. It was a cute boutique hotel! Room was spacious with a queen-sized bed and a super single bed which is very comfortable for the 3 of us. Also has a 3-seater sofa, a good sized fridge and a rectangular table. Location was perfect. 3 Mins walk from exit 25 of Namba station. But it's all steps. Exit 24 has an escalator if you have luggages. Family Mart and 7-eleven along the route to hotel. Good to get snacks and ramen for midnight suppers on the way home. Hotel provides hot n cold beverages in the pantry area. Loved the green tea latte! Hotel also provides a free shuttle to Namba station upon checkout but it starts only from 8am. So for those who have an early flight out, you need to make your own way to Namba station to

I stayed in a corner twin room (annex) for 6 nights during my stay in Osaka- a perfect size for 2 person, space sufficient for 2 mid-size luggages. The room equipped with very basic, but very thoughtful and useful things for traveller, e.g., USB multi-port charger, many hangers, hand soap, humidifier, water, slippers, wall sensor lamp, etc. Room is very clean, bed is hard enough and very comfortable with 2 high pillow for each bed. Location of the hotel is extremely convenient, within 5 minutes walk to Dotonburi River Walk, Shinsaibashi Shopping Street, and Namba metro station. It's tucked in one corner of Dotonburi, away from the crowd and noises, which is perfect for rest and relax. The staff is very helpful and polite. I would like to specially thank the owner, Ms Xu (the

If you wan to stay in Dōtonbori to shop and eat, just stay at this fabulous hotel! Tucked in one corner of Dōtonbori and within 5 mins walk to train - you can really walk back and drop your shopping stuff and go back Dōtonbori to eat and shop again. Lawson and 7-11 just 3 mins away. 1. Room is super spacious & feels really home- hangars on wall, hand soap, strong water, very clean everywhere, there's even branded humidifier in room! The bed is big and clean. Enough room to put 3 big luggage and still have room to walk around. 3. Staff - very polite and even offered us short ride to the OCAT when we have 5 bags 4. Hotel amenities - well stocked pantry with lotsa of water to choose at the lobby, though they recommend you not to bring the beverages back to room. of course the

Clean and fresh hotel located in a fabulous spot with easy access to the enormous Namba Station for both JR and Metro trains - walking distance to Dotonbori eating streets and Shinsaibashi shopping and cool cafes. The staff were lovely and helpful with drinks available all day and night in the lobby and cafe style tables where you can byo food, with a 7-11 50m up the road this was very handy. The rooms were well appointed with everything you need and even bedside multi usb chargers which made my kids VERY happy. I also used the laundry after 5 days travelling it was very welcome! I'd happily stay there again if i went back to Osaka.
