Having access to the internet is important for us when travelling. In this hotel the connection shifted from on and off quite often. It was very frustrating, especially when uploading photos to our internet back up site. When we called for support an old man come into our room but he could not do anything about it. Disappointing. Also, the... More

We just returned from a 3 night stay at The Dotonbori Hotel, conveniently located on the action filled Dotonbori Street. This hotel is only a 3-5 minute walk from either the Namba train station or the OCAT (Osaka airport limo bus) service where for only JPY 1,800 pp, you can purchase a roundtrip ticket to/from the Osaka airport. The Dotonbori... More

Location is excellent. 2 minutes walk to subway Namba station. Also a 5 minutes walk to the adjacant Namba/Dotonburi where great food and fantastic shopping is located. And for those shopaholics, you will find yourself in the middle of the long Shinsabaishi shopping arcade. There is also a convenience store just opposite the hotel. Stayed here for 3 nights in...

During the last week of April, my wife and I stayed at the Dotonbori Hotel for one night in the small double room for about $115/night. We all know Japan’s reputation for small hotel rooms, but this double on the sixth floor was adequately sized. We had no difficulty moving around the room (granted my wife and I aren’t big).... More

when in Osaka i reccommend this hotel, if your a first timer in town or would like to see Dtonbori this is the hotel for you, its located on Dtonbori street so your a few minutes walk from the big crab and neon signs, not to mention the great shopping and food to die for. Nanba station is a short... More

I stayed in a single person room - it was clean, comfortable and fairly spacious (for a Japanese room). What I really liked about this hotel was the extra services (most free of charge) like renting a laptop and lots of others. Staff were helpful and could speak English well. Location is also very handy; within 2 minutes walking from... More

The Dotonbori hotel is about a 10-15 min walk from the station and although the statues outside look kind of weird, they are an excellent way of knowing you have reached your destination! The free phone call home was an excellent benefit, it was so nice to have 5 minutes to call my family without knowing I was being charged... More

This is our Japanese foodie dream location! It is a fantastic, friendly hotel just off the main road and next too many restaurants and a convenience store. The rooms are a nice size for Japanese rooms and they offer many services, such as tour help, visitor train tickets, money exchange and complimentary candies and toiletries. The main shopping strips are... More

We have stayed several times at Dotonbori Hotel, most recently in April 2012. The hotel has an excellent location only minutes away from the famous neon lights around Dotonbori. The hotel is also very affordable. We usually make this our final stay on our Japan travels whenever we need to catch a morning flight out from Kansai airport. You will... More
