Granbell Hotel Osaka

“Great location, tasty breakfast, and the most comfortable beds ever!”

The room was small but well-appointed. Everything we needed was there, although we had to push the luggages under the bed because there wasn't space to put them anywhere else :P The beds were SUPER comfortable.

Location is also great - far from the craziness of Dotonbori but close enough that you could walk there.

I spent four nights at the Granbell Hotel Osaka, and here is my complete review. The reception is located on the third floor, which also serves as the amenities area. The reception staff were cooperative and did their best to make the check-in process smooth. The hotel offers an amenities buffet with face cleansers, hair cleansers, dental kits, shaving kits, small towels, hair bands, and more, all accessible for guests as needed. There is also a complimentary water, tea, and coffee station at the reception available to all residents. The rooms, however, were somewhat congested. We were two people with three bags and could not open more than one at a time. There is no wardrobe for clothes or shoes, only a few hangers on a rod near the main door. The dining table is small, and the chairs provided felt more suited for children. That said, the bed and bathroom made up for the lack of space. The bed was very comfortable, and the pillows were exceptionally relaxing. The toilet was the modern Japanese style with multiple functions, and the shower had a reliable supply of both hot and cold water to suit your needs. Breakfast was mostly bread and Japanese-style dishes. There was a selection of breads, buns, and baguettes, accompanied by cheese and other Japanese items. Surprisingly, no fruits were offered, but there were fresh juices and a variety of teas available. In terms of location, the hotel is about a 10-minute walk from Hommachi Metro Station. Some entrances are closer, around five minutes away, but these close after 7 p.m., so the walking distance can vary depending on the time of day. Just one more point, they housekeeping is scheduled every two days. They give fresh towels everyday but room cleaning will be done alternate days. Overall, the stay would have been much more comfortable with a bit more space in the room, but the amenities, service, and location made it a decent choice for a short stay in Osaka.

“Decent stay.”

Decent hotel in Osaka. Booked a standard room that was quite small for 2 people; we stored our suitcase under the bed to make it more manageable. Bed is comfortable and room comes equipped with safe, aircon, TV (Japanese channels), clothes hooks, small fridge and kettle for making hot drinks. Bath… Mehr

Decent hotel in Osaka. Booked a standard room that was quite small for 2 people; we stored our suitcase under the bed to make it more manageable. Bed is comfortable and room comes equipped with safe, aircon, TV (Japanese channels), clothes hooks, small fridge and kettle for making hot drinks. Bathroom has shower only but water is hot and powerful. Breakfast choices were rather limited for me with western food preferences. There are buffet items and you can also order fried egg or omelet (1 egg only per person). Tea/coffee is available all day in the lobby area. The hotel has an onsen bath open to hotel guests. The hotel is located a little way from the main shopping/eating area in central Osaka near the river and takes about 15mins to walk there. There are metro stations nearby where you can get a train to/from Namba station for travel to/from the airport. Overall, not a bad stay.

Good little boutique hotel with nice bar and good location to Honmachi Station. You walk quite a way from the Honmachi train station stop underground to your exit for Granbell, however easy to get around using the Osaka pass to major tourist sights. Numerous cafes around for excellent coffee and delicious inexpensive breakfasts. Well designed, 18sqm compact room, good bedding and fixtures. Ordinary check-in. No problems.
