Toyoko Inn Osaka Namba

Location is excellent. I like the quick, no human touch check-in process. I like that there is a microwave to heat our food, ice maker, and water dispenser. There are vending machines for water, iced tea, coffee and beer. The lobby is wide and open. I am able to work, do a video call with privacy even in the lobby. There is even a printer free to use. There is also a laundromat though you have to pay 30Yen for the laundry powder, 200Yen for a 31-min full load wash, and 100Yen for a 11-min dryer, which you can top up to fully dry your clothes. But all equipment are new so the experience overall is great!

Modern hotel with very clean rooms and great access to the subway and nearby Dotonbori. They allowed our group of 3 (2 adults and 1 pre-teen) so the room provides much higher value for the price paid. The complete breakfast buffet was a bonus. We booked this hotel for the location and the price, and both expectations were exceeded. We would surely book this hotel again even if we are only 1 or 2 persons traveling.

The hotel is superb in term of location: in front of the hotel is Namba Walk underground shopping area, Namba Station that led to basic everywhere you need to be like Dotombori, Tennoji, Shinsekai, Osaka Castle… This is the best place to be if these are in your list of sightseeing. Room size - big enough to open 2 suitcases at the same time, comfortable and cozy. Breakfast included were delicious. Washing machine and drying machine were in great condition and easy to use. Only thing is no water in the room but there is water dispenser on lvl 1 and b1 (not to fill up bottle tho)

It was a nice room, the perfect size for a solo traveller. The bathroom was small but that’s pretty standard for hotels in Japan. Amenities were provided in the lobby, including pyjamas and practically anything you could need. The hotel breakfast was also nutritional and tasty, with plenty of options. The location was really convenient, there was an entrance to Namba station right outside the hotel entrance, though you did have to walk around 5 minutes inside the station to get to the train lines. Dotonbori was only around a 15 walk away, which was also really nice. Overall, I would really recommend staying here.

This hotel is a traveler's dream. It's genius. It had everything we needed. Before checkin: Free, convenient storage lockers with adjacent coin laundry. We arrived very early via the ferry from Shin-moji and were able to store our luggage and wash our clothes all while exploring the surrounding area. The room was new, clean, and efficient. The whole bathroom was a precast waterproof kit that was easy to keep spotless.
