The hotel was wonderful. It was close to rail, restaurants and shopping without being in the middle of everything. It has restaurants on site. The rooms are efficient and having the ability to cast to the tv to watch in my language was great.

Fabulous stay at this hotel. LOVED IT!!

We stayed here twice during our 9 day long visit to Japan and absolutely loved this hotel. I left a longer review for the longer part of our stay. I would 100% come back and can't imagine staying any place else if visiting Osaka. It was our home away from home and when weren't there we missed it and were glad to come back. Everything about it was all we needed it to be and way better than expected.

LOVED our home away from home!

We spent a total of 7 of our 9 nights in Japan at APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Namba Ekimae Tower. I can't express how much we loved this hotel. At the end of every long day we were so excited to come "home". Everything about this hotel was amazing. We had connecting rooms that slept 4. Having to full baths was wonderful. The deep furo style tubs were dreamy. The beds and comforts comfortable. The room temperature control very responsive and effective. It was cold when we stayed and it warmed quickly and stayed warm. The room amenities were above and beyond. Having a 24 hour 7-11 right there in the hotel was fantastic and we all agreed it was the best one with the friendliest staff of any Konbini we visited. The bath house which was included was wonderful and I only whish I had taken advantage of it more. The laundry room was great and watching our progress of our clothes on our tv was fun. The staff were all friendly and very professional. The only slight negative was the wait for the elevator in the morning around check out time but that's expected. We can't wait to go back to Japan and no matter our itinary I can't imagine not making plans to go back to our home away from home on Osaka Namba.

Very small rooms and too pricey

Rooms are very small it is quite claustrophobic. For the price paid it was not worth it. The only saving grace was the excellent spa and sauna. The 7/11 is very handy as well. Staff were very helpful and friendly but will need more English speaking training.

We Enjoyed our stay at this APA, as it had all the amenities such as a 7-11, laundry, men/women onsen, hair salon, and massage spa all on the 4th floor. Restaurant was located on the 2nd floor, with a coffee shop on the first. Additionally, it is located next to the JR Namba station and the OCAT station where you can take the bus back to KIX.
