This was about my sixth or seventh stay at the Hilton Osaka but also my last. Quite simply I made two approx. 4 minute calls back to Australia and got charged the equivalent of about AUD$60 for EACH CALL. Now I know this is an int'l hotel and calls from int'l hotels are expensive but this is rediculous. I complained at the front desk, l told them to fix it or I won't be back but all they said was that the bill was correct. Now I made the same call from the Keio Plaza hotel in Tokyo the day before and it was only a few dollars so why such a huge difference between hotels I do not know but I do know that the Hilton Osaka rips off its guests if they decide to use the phone for an int'l call!.
The other issue was the queue for breakfast, I ended up leaving and coming down later, there was no queue but I stood at the desk for about 5 mins while the staff ignored me doing their own thing so I walked out, sure they came running out after me all apologetic but it was too late. (I highly rate the service and staff at this hotel but not at the breakfast desk on that day).
Anyway if anyone can rec. another good business hotel in Osaka I would be pleased to hear as its time for a change....really I am just totlaly miffed about that telephone bill, the hotel is actually very good.
