10/10. Must stay here in osaka”

I been to few hotel in Tokyo on my trip this time but this hotel in osaka is THE BEST hotel I been in Japan. Best for the price. Best location. Best facilities and comfy rooms. Start from the location. 5 mins walk to dotonbori (the most end of dotonbori tho) right on top of jr namba station (we literally walk out of the station escalator and the hotel is just there) and also 10 mins walk to metro station (namba walk underground is like shopping mall). The location could get any better. Secondly the room and the hotel itself is nice clean and edgy. There are few arts (even cathedral) in the lobby. The room is big and the bathroom so nice both in European style decor. The view is actually not bad from 30th floor. On top of all that the price is still cheaper than small crampy hotel in Tokyo. We are over the moon with this hotel. Definitely recommend and will stay again. If I have to nitpick the only bad thing is probably the lobby is in the 22nd floor. So we have to take an elevator to go to lobby and another to go our room. Also the air conditioning spit out some dust but it's only a little bit and can be overlook.

Very convenient location to-from Kansai Airport”

Hotel has simplicity elegant appearance. English-speaking front desk staff was courteous. "Single room" was good size by Japanese standards; VERY CLEAN and has needed essentials (body soap, shampoo, conditioner, personalized toothbrush/paste, comb) and tea/coffee for morning drinks. Nice view of city (if you have a room with view of the city). Although my booking this time didn't include the breakfast buffet but my last one did. Price for the breakfast buffet is reasonable, and the options were good. But the feature I like best about the hotel is the convenient location, especially for those with luggages traveling to/from Kansai Airport. Direction from Kansai Airport (KIX): take the Nankai Railway train from Terminal 1 to Shin-Imayima Station. Get off the train and follow the sign for Yamatoji Line (green color) to go to JR Namba Station, which is 2 stops away and costs 130y/ticket. Once at JR Namba Station, take the North Exit escalator to exit the station. Once at the station exit/entrance, look to the right - the hotel is the big building 20 yards/meters away. Enter the building and take the elevator to the 22nd Floor to the hotel lobby/check-in. Next door to the hotel is a general store for those wanting to pick up personal items (soap/shampoo/toothpaste/toiletries...) and above that store is a "100-yen" store. There's a Starbuck/McDonald's just to the right of the bottom of the escalator, and 50 yards/meters beyond that is a huge groceries store with alcohol/wine, prepared foods, drinks... From the hotel to "Glico Running Man" is a short/pleasant/safe walk about 1km away, either via the underground Namba Walk (if rain/cold) or via street-level where you can enjoy the fresh air and outdoor scenery/shops...

Great location.”

We loved it! Great view of Osaka city from our 28th floor room city view. Very near Dotonbori. Underneath is is the Namba train station. There’s a supermarket too very accessible there’s a lot of place to buy lots of food. The hotel entrance too have painting collection as Sanno Museum is inside the hotel too! It’s also a wedding venue so for the 4 days we stayed we saw wedding entourage 2 days in a row. All Saints Church also share the same floor as the hotel reception.

Memorable stay for 5 nights”

Location is superb, lovely hotel with stunning views from our rooms and the 360 view of Osaka from the breakfast room. A short 5 minutes walk to Dotomburi and only 10minutes walk to Kuromon market. A very interesting feature of this hotel is it’s in-house chapel on the 6th floor, very French style. Easy to get to on the airport limo bus which stops just next door and the Namba walk starts literally from the basement of the hotel. Yes I fully recommend this hotel.

Great location, nice hotel, great view ”

Great location near train station and shops. Hotel provides you with portable pocket hotspot. Staff helpful, happy to hold onto your luggage. Rooms clean and good facilities. Rooms solid can’t hear noise. Only dislike was no safe in room.

Very good hotel-good location”

Very good service, clean, comfortable, and nice view. Locating next to Namba stations just few minutes walk from subway and JR stations. Walking distance to Dontonburi and Namba center, less than 5 minutes. Big supermarket on the underground floor.

Satisfied stay! ”

- Good room size - Very central location with two train stations at doorstep - The airport bus terminal also at next building. Very convenient to travel to airport - Room is clean , with bath tub, and good water pressure

Exceptional”

Room is bigger than Japanese standard room. Bed is comfy and there is enough space for us to open 2 big luggage. I left a dress behind and only realised it 3 days later. Called the hotel and was told that they kept it aside for me. I was so touched that they kept it for me. Location wise is excellent. Just a mere 5 mins walk to OCAT and 10 mins walk to Namba station. I have nothing but praises for this hotel chain!

Convenient and clean hotel ”

I have been staying in this hotel twice the location is very convenient. The basement is the JR Namba and the subway. There are many food store and shopping-malls. 10 mins walk to DonDon Donki area.

Excellent location, spacious room”

Good location - walking distance to Namba station, next to OCAT where airport limousine bus terminal is and numerous shopping streets and complex Upgraded to room with 3 single beds - spacious with walking room after putting in 3 big luggages. Good management - our stored luggages were already brought up to our room as we were early before the designated check-in time.

Excellent location in Namba”

1) Next to OCAT bus terminal, connecting to Kansai airport. 2) Walking distance to JR Namba and Namba stations. 3) Many eateries, convenience shops, fast food within walking distance. 4) Room is a bit cramp for a room with 1 semi-double bed+1 single bed. No walking space once you put 3 luggages.

Great location”

This hotel was in a perfect location for the start to our Japan holiday We caught the #11 Limosine Bus to the OCAT - the hotel is literally next door. Follow the signs on the floor, take the lift to the ground level and the hotel is right there. You need to take the lift to Level 22 for reception - most guests seemed unaware of this. The room was a good size and had a great bathroom. Even better - we were able to open the windows to let some cool air in to help us get adjusted to the cooler climate. Dotonbori is about a 10 minute walk away and the JR-Namba line is literally next door. We didn’t have breakfast at the hotel but there are plenty of cafes in the train station to grab a quick bite to eat. Would definitely stay here again.

Excellent hotel location very near Dotonbori, Takashimaya and shopping places. ”

Highly recommended because it is located across the subway, connected to OCAT, stones throw away from shopping places and Restos. The rooms are clean and staff at reception were accommodating. The supermarket at basement is superb! The only thing I didn’t like is the free coffee they provide in the rooms. Drip coffee wud be better or any branded coffee. Artificial sweetener or brown sugar wud be better than white sugar also.

Excellent location & Reasonable price!!”

Super convenient location..situated right above train station and next to JR Namba and OCAT. Room (even with tree beds) is large enough for three adults. It is cleaned and bright. We had a great view at the 31st Floor (highest floor of the building). There is also a huge supermarket at basement 1.. So it’s very convenient for us. Staff are polite and courteous. Recommend this hotel to anyone coming to Osaka!!

good location and nice view”

We like the room, it give you a pleasant feeling when step in. Also the staff gave us high floor we can have a good view of Osaka. There is a super market and shop below the hotel, so convenient. We will be back again.

Good relaxing 2 night stays at Hotel Monterey Grasmere”

The hotel is located near Osaka Namba station, which is main station that you can go everywhere. There is also bus in front of the hotel which take to directly to Osaka Airport. The hotel's facility, room size and staff are great also.

.”

Place was great! Clean though not ultramodern, but we called it home for 5 nights. Close to bus and train station. It’s great that there is a grocery in the basement. Looking forward to our next stay in December.

Big, good location!!!”

Nice location near station Near Bus station for direct airport shuttle. Big room!! I mean BIG! Was a very good price when we stayed (2016) Nice Osaka city view from our room. Luxury feeling and not a ”budget hotel” looking at all.

1st Japan trip”

Hotel was easy to find right next to bus terminal. Later discovered basment is actually linked to it... nobody told us... very accessible for big baggage when going to bus terminal. And its also linked to basement metro, jr, supermarket which closed at 12midnight.

Love the hotel”

Super love the hotel. From facility to location to staff all was excellent. Room with view is really awesome at night.. Will definitely stay thus hotel again and highly recommend this to everyone
