Great Namba Hotel with an Indoor Pool
We really enjoyed this hotel, and it was our second time staying here. The first time was actually 15 years ago, and it is even better now. The entire hotel is upscale, the service is excellent, and the rooms are modern and well appointed There are at least two more things worth mentioning about this hotel: 1) It is directly linked to the Namba Nankai railway station, which makes it tremendously convenient. You can follow the signs right out the train station to the hotel entry and 2) there is a fitness area with a large lap pool. So, if you enjoy swimming laps like we do, this is a great hotel choice. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel if you are interesting in staying in the Namba area of Osaka. It is just convenient to everything.

The Swiss Select Queen is very small. The toilet has barely any space to put toiletries. The location is 5 star though. Super convenient to the Nankai Express. Other than that, the room rate doesn’t commensurate the room quality.

We got a really old room (there are renewed but ours was really old. The room was dark, old, doesn’t looked clean, didn’t changed the towels, the lights tilted all the time. The wifi was really intermittent, the bed is old and not comfortably. The location is great, just next to Namba station, walking distance of Dotombori. The good thing we got our room as soon as we arrived.

Great Location, Stellar Service, and Sunset Views
Our stay here was overall enjoyable, with a few standout moments and minor drawbacks. The customer service was exceptional, with multilingual agents who made everything so much easier. They also had a computer available for use, which was a lifesaver for me during the trip. Breakfast was fantastic, offering a mix of Western and Japanese selections. Our son especially loved the ice cream station—a fun and unexpected treat! The view from the dining area was stunning, particularly at sunset, adding a lovely touch to the mornings. The room itself was a bit of a letdown—small and outdated—but the hotel’s location more than made up for it. Being close to Dotonbori and plenty of shopping spots made exploring Osaka a breeze. We’d likely return, but next time, we’d definitely opt for a better room to make the experience even more enjoyable. For the location, service, and breakfast alone, it’s worth considering!

This was a great location for a visit to Osaka, located directly above the Namba station and many transit lines. The staff spoke English reasonably well, and were focused on service. It took me about a day to get oriented to the massive underground shopping center and transit hub and the connected buildings, but once I did, it was easy to navigate. Also easily walkable to Dotonbori is a popular entertainment district in Osaka, Japan, known for its nightlife, shopping, and street food. The breakfest buffet on the top floor of the hotel offered a great selection and stunning views, and was handled very efficiently. Overall, a great experience. I would stay here again.

Great time in Osaka
Heat central location just above Namba station which made it very easy to travel around the city. The room was clean, modern, and the bed and linens were comfortable. The bathroom was clean and modern. Breakfast was buffet style with a huge variety of both western and Japanese offerings. The highlight was the sauna, Japanese bath, and cold plunge. The gym was also well equipped. The lobby is wide open with plenty of seating and drink options (maybe food too). Staff was attentive and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

Hotel in the Center of Everything in Namba
We chose Swissotel to celebrate our anniversary in Osaka. Location: We chose the location based on our research because it's minutes from the Namba Station with access to the metro and Express train to the airport. However, it wasn't as convenient for our day trips to Hiroshima, Kyoto, Hemiji Castle, Kobe etc. because we still had to travel to the Shin Osaka station across the river to make connections. We also weren't quite prepared for the crush of people in in the Namba Station outside the hotel and just about every shopping area surrounding the building. It was overwhelming at times. Service: Excellent. Everyone was very helpful, especially Meg (Takeuchi) at the concierge desk who was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Kilm(?) in the Bar 26/Restaurant was also so welcoming, kind and thoughtful when we dined upstairs in the hotel. Accommodations: Our room was quiet, spacious and comfortable but the bathroom was somewhat disappointing because the shower was not user friendly and hard to regulate because it had a hand held spray. It was almost impossible to avoid splashing water all over the floor because there is only a partial glass wall. More importantly, it was not safe trying to get in and out of the tub without slipping because there was not a safety bar to hold onto on the back wall near the door to brace yourself. Perhaps the hotel can look into this. Overall, we had a nice stay.
