Osaka Hotels with Pools

Conclusion I will never stay at ANA Crowne Plaza Osaka again. The room was the smallest I have ever been at and part of the window was blocked by a wall outside the room. The check in and check out was chaos with a huge queue. The hotel is outdated too. The only positive thing regarding this hotel is the club lounge. Review I arrived with the Shinkassen at Osaka station and the hotel is in walking distance from station. The train station is huge, and I was difficult to find the right exit. The hotel is located in a business area, but there are a lot of restaurants, bars and shops in the neighborhood. Not the right area, if you are a turist. I arrived at 2 pm, where I could not get me room even I am an IHG diamond member. Came back after a couple of hours, where there was a huge queue. Check-in took between 45-60 min. It was the same situation, when I should check out. It is not possible to check out in the IHG app. Even I have the highest status in the IHG program, I got the smallest room in the hotel. It was not possible to open my suitcase in the room - i don’t want it on the bed. The window was partly blocked by wall outside the window. The room is very outdated. I had access to the club lounge, where I had a couple of drinks during the evening and breakfast in the morning. The lounges was ok but it was busy.

I’ve stayed here more times than I can remember. Just shows how much I like the IC. The hotel continues to deliver on service, cleanliness and location. With the opening of the Grand Green Osaka there are even more shops, restaurants and greenery around the hotel. It’s a big shame though that with the new office and hotels towers having come up, rooms facing the west, which in the past had the best views of the Umeda Sky Building and the Yodo River now has obstructed views.

The lobby side escalator will lead you to osaka train station where you can buy direct train to Kansai airport. Then if take the lift to level 1 will lead you to takashimaya shopping mall. Opp is IOIO shopping mall beside it, is the longest walling street... This hotel also near to kumonon market I hope I spell correct

Although I was not staying at the W, the MIXup cafe is a fun spot in the middle of Osaka to have a tea or coffee and their amazing dessert(s). I was looking to try their seasonal dessert, the strawberry mille feuille, although it was already sold out when I arrived. This gives me another reason to return soon! The staff was so friendly and helpful. Upon arrival, I was swiftly shown to my table that I reserved ahead of time (thanks, Marriott Bonvoy), and was walked through the menu and how their orders work. Many teas to choose from, and the cake I chose was plated so beautifully. The chantilly cream with the berries - out of this world! The entire experience was smooth, and I was delighted with the level of service provided. In a way, this is ”normal” and expected for Japan, but I want to highlight that I really enjoyed this visit and look forward to going back.

All reviews are based on the room on the 32nd floor where I stayed and my own experience. Let me start with the main point. The hotel is too new. The room smells, smells, and smells, especially the walk-in closet! I wanted to try it, but I was taught a lesson by reality. If you bring your children or mind the smell of the decoration, come back at least 3-6 months later. Advantages: Nice night view. Soft slippers. New facilities. The walk-in closet is very large. The refrigerator is very good and has a full range of products. You can have anything you want to drink in the middle of the night. The coffee pot is from fellow, and the nuts in the room are delicious. The hotel TV projection is smooth. The shower facilities are clean. There is still room for improvement: The location is not easy to find. No taxi driver can quickly recognize the location. You have to check it on the roadside for a long time. It seems that because it is too new, the navigation on the taxi did not enter this address. The front desk pretended not to understand Chinese and said that he could not speak a bit of Chinese. After checking in, I suddenly saw his name tag and asked him in Chinese, ”Isn't your surname Chen?” He immediately made a 🤫 gesture to me, smiled awkwardly and whispered that the rules do not allow speaking Chinese. I asked him if he was *********, and he nodded vaguely. You can experience it yourself🤷. The welcome service is two bottles of mineral water and disposable towels. When the room fee is paid in advance, a deposit of 60,000 Japanese yen is collected. There is no service of sending upstairs and introducing the room. I don't know why this Four Seasons Hotel does not have such a basic service. I communicated with the hotel in advance that I would bring children and needed children's products in the room. After three communications, the hotel said that they would be prepared, but there were no children's products in the room. There was no welcome fruit, but two cupcakes with DIY frosting and marshmallows were given. Maybe they think this is children's products. I got a corner room on the 32nd floor. It may have just been renovated. The door smelled of renovation. The cloakroom smelled even worse because it was completely enclosed. There was a numbered sticky note on the door, which was not removed by the service staff until I checked out. The pillow was very uncomfortable. Remember to ask the room service for a harder pillow. The TV welcome addressed the guest without the last name. The night bed was better on the first day. In the following days, the pillow was not moved away or the quilt was tucked away, and the slippers were not taken out. Maybe this is the rule of this Four Seasons. The bathtub is square, not long, and the shower position is a bit strange. I feel that it is not very comfortable to use. I especially hope that the room manager can use the hair dryer himself. The sound is huge! And my hands are numb after drying my hair. The coffee pot is so good, the hair dryer can be improved. The texture of the towel is not good, it is very hard, the bathrobe is also wrinkled, and the belt I got one day has flying edges. They really don’t treat me as an outsider. The air conditioner is weird. You can't adjust it to heat or cool. The temperature is set by the guest and the air conditioner decides it by itself. When the air volume is turned off, it is cold below 20 degrees and hot above. I don't understand this. You can hear the sound of cars passing by in the room at night, and there is always a white noise. I don't know if it is the refrigerator or the toilet, buzzing. Oh yes, the pens in the room are broken. There are many other things that I won't go into. In short, this experience is not pleasant, and it has worn away the good impression that Four Seasons left on me before. Considering the room fee of 12,000 for three days, there are many other options. I may not patronize this brand for a long time.

We stayed 6 nights at Sheraton , first 3 nights were upgraded to premium room but the other 3 nights after we back from Kyoto was to normal room , however they have provided everything we need eg like shower chair fir elderly . Very good and thoughtful services , central location and can go everywhere easily . Many eateries n Kintetsu departmental stores n Hihi town n Newly yufura shopping ctr all around the hotel .

The hilton hotel is very conveniently located. It is closely located to the main train station and a number of shopping malls, all connected underground . There are a lot of restautants within walking distance to choose from for meals. A lot of shops and big department stores in the viccinty for shopping. Will visit again. Although they have mistakenly taken my pyjamas from my closet as it was hung together with the hotel robe, they tried their best to locate it before my departure on the next day ( I was told it was retrived from the laundry area ) and offered compensations such as free breakfast ( which I have not taken as I would prefer to spend my last morning in Osaka on exploring the surroundings)

The hotel has a great location, with views of Osaka Castle, and it's only 20 minutes to attractions like Osaka's Shinsaibashi. There was a concierge when we checked in. Even though we have Gold status, we stayed in an executive room, so after we checked in at the front desk, we went to the lounge to wait for our room to be ready. Once it was, our luggage had already been moved into the room. There was no welcome fruit, but there were cookies. The room is not large, 26 sqm, but it is very well-decorated, with high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a nice view. The hotel just opened in 2024, so all the facilities are very new. The hardware is well-made, and the bathroom is fully equipped with TOTO smart fixtures. The quality of the food and drinks in the lounge was quite good, and the desserts weren't too sweet. In addition to a continental breakfast, you can also enjoy some Japanese specialty snacks. The electronic room key worked well, with hardly any issues. It could be used in the gym, pool, elevator, and room. The gym isn't large, but it's well-equipped, with all Precor products. 酒店位置很好，能看到大阪城，20分钟能去到大阪心斋桥等等景点。入住时有礼宾。虽然是金卡，但是我们入住行政房，因此我们在前台办理好后就去酒廊等待房间准备就绪。在就绪后，我们的行李已经被搬进房间。没有欢迎水果，但是有曲奇。 房间不大，26sqm，但是装修很好，层高很高，有落地窗，景色不错。是2024年新开业的酒店，设施都很新，五金件很紧致，全套toto智能卫浴。 酒店的酒廊出品质量以及酒的质量都不错，甜点不腻。早餐除了欧陆早餐，还能吃到一些日本特色小食。 电子房卡好用，很少掉链子，健身房、泳池、电梯、房间均可用。健身房不大，但是设施齐全，全部都是precor的产品。

All good. Service staff was very friendly. Shuttle bus driver and attendant were superb. Walking distance to Osaka station is about 10 mins or shorter, easy walk. There is a 7-11 right across the hotel.

Very expensive but God damn, they really do be hiring people that speak either English or Chinese together with Japanese! And oh my, there are just so so many staff that do! Whether that be front desk, or even housekeeping! The only ones that really don't are the ones in the restaurants or in Melissa (where they sell bread and other good food!) Or the mall downstairs! The dessert lounge weren't too friendly either but they all seem to be extensions of the hotel! Overall, great experience except for the fact that the rooms are indeed tiny and compact cause that's what we booked after all - but aside from that, all the amenities were great, toilet was big and movable in and you really have anything and everything you need already there! Only issue is maybe that some things here are pretty outdated though it's a 5 star hotel! But overall its truly worth the price though I don't reccomend staying all the time unless you wanna burn a hole in your pocket heh! But one great thing is that they are truly commendable in terms of holding events and catering to hundreds of guests for the really really big ballrooms. That's a huge plus.
