HOTEL Shiki Utsubo Park

I stayed for two nights. First, the staff’s greetings were full of hospitality, and it felt welcoming like a small Hotel in Europe. On the first night, they upgraded my Room, and it was spacious and very comfortable. On the second night, I stayed in the original Room; I was worried it might feel less impressive after the upgrade, but it was bright and still plenty spacious and comfortable—so I was very satisfied with both! When I visit Osaka again, I’d love to stay here again.

I stayed here because I had business in the Nanko area. Just as the Reviews said, it’s compact, the Room was clean, and all the staff were very pleasant. The amenities were a nice touch—separate top-and-bottom loungewear and a soft toothbrush—there were many little things I appreciated. There are plenty of restaurants around the Hotel, and an okonomiyaki place about a 2–3 minute walk away that I stopped by on a whim was absolutely delicious, so if you’re looking for something uniquely Osaka, be sure to check it out.
