During my stay at Swissotel Nankai Osaka, I appreciated the prime location right above the Namba Station, which made it convenient for exploring Dotonbori and nearby shopping malls. However, I was disappointed by the overall service and some room amenities that felt below five-star standards. The food options in the hotel were also lacking in quality, especially the breakfast where I faced long queues. Despite some drawbacks, my stay had its pleasant moments, especially in terms of room cleanliness and the lovely city views.

Rooms

6.0

I stayed in an Executive Room on the 33rd floor, which was spacious but felt a bit dated. Cleanliness was decent, though I noticed issues with the bathroom and some older fixtures. Additionally, USB chargers were not functioning, and the cheap toilet paper was a letdown.

Service

6.0

Service had its highs and lows. I received assistance from staff like Aobuchi at the front desk, who was quite helpful with my room concerns. However, I felt overall engagement from management was lacking, particularly in handling issues that arose during my stay.

Dining options were rather disappointing. I enjoyed the Teppanyaki restaurant on level 10, but other dining experiences in the hotel, including breakfast, didn't meet my expectations and were often busy with long wait times.

Facilities

6.0

The hotel offers various facilities like a gym, pool, and cafes. However, accessing the pool was a bit complicated, and I found the housekeeping services inconsistent with maintaining room amenities.

I had a great six-night stay at Swissotel Nankai Osaka, thanks to its fantastic location right above the Namba train station, making traveling to Kansai International Airport a breeze. The room was spacious compared to typical Japanese standards and kept impeccably clean by the housekeeping staff. However, I found the breakfast options somewhat limited and would have appreciated a greater variety of Japanese dishes, along with more entertainment options in the room. Overall, I would recommend this hotel for its convenience and comfort.

I had a really nice stay at Swissotel Nankai Osaka. The location was perfect for exploring the city, especially with easy access to the train station and nearby shopping areas. While the accommodations were clean and comfortable, I did notice some inconsistent housekeeping. Overall, it was a nice experience, especially celebrating my birthday here!

The location is unbeatable! Just a short walk from the Namba station, right above the subway, and close to Dotonbori and shopping. I loved that we could easily explore the city!

Dining

While I didn't try the breakfast, I heard great things about the buffet on the top floor with amazing views. The dining options around the hotel were plentiful, which made it easy to grab a quick meal.

Facilities

7.0

The swimming pool area was a bit tricky with the separate entrances for genders, which made it challenging with my child. Housekeeping did a good job but could improve on consistency, like providing enough towels and water daily.
