Guest Reviews
- hisako (8/5): - スタッフが感じ良い
- guy (8/5): - Buisness hôtel donc chambre très petite ( même pour une personne ) 3 places de parking pour tout l'hôtel
- ようこ (6/5): - バスルームが狭くて利用するの苦労しました。
- チエ (4/5): - 交通機関からホテルまでの距離が近くスタッフの方の対応も良かったです。 残念だった点は大浴場が有るのですが女性が使える時間は21時40分頃迄なので、遅くにホテルにチェックインすると女性は大浴場は使えません。入り口の無料のドリンクサ－ビスですが、朝も夜も使用できる時間が限られてる為朝ゆっくり寝て遅くにホテルに帰宅する方は使用出来ないと思います。 ただ宿泊のお値段がとても安かったのでコスパ良く大阪を楽しみたいならおすすめのホテルです。
- Lois (8/5): - Clean room. Although smaller than expected. The building is also a little bit older compared to the others hotels we stayed at but area is quite and safe. Near multiple train stations and lots of restaurants nearby.
- Vincent (8/5): - Very central, next to subway, walking disyltance to where the action is. Excellent experience.
- フジオ (8/5): - 荷物の預かり時にとても親切だった
- Vincent (8/5): - Amazing location. Right next to public transport. Less than 15-20 minute walk to the centre of Osaka. Great amenities surrounding the hotel, shops, grocery stores, convenience stores, laundry, fast casual, fadt foid and high end eateries. Highly recommend the hotel.
- hajime (8/5): - 快適に過ごせました。
- HIROKO (8/5): - お部屋は綺麗。静かで過ごしやすい。お風呂、トイレは狭いけど綺麗に掃除行き届いています。
- Janivie (10/5): - Very good
- ?? (8/5): - 万博に行くために利用 ホテルの駐車場に車を停められなくても、近くに24時間1,400円の駐車場がいくつかあり、困ることはなかった
- Yuki (10/5): - Near the bus stop.
- Yuko (6/5): - 狭い、朝食質素
- Konoka (10/5): - 難波からも歩いて行ける距離でとても便利でした。部屋も清潔でスタッフの方も皆さん親切でまた利用したいと思いました。
- María Gabriela (8/5): - Tiene una muy buena ubicación, la habitación es pequeña pero bien distribuida, sin embargo, el baño es sumamente pequeño e incómodo. No apto para personas de más de 1.90 cm de altura, realmente incómodo.
- TETSUO (8/5): - 京セラドーム大阪に近く、また駅にも近い立地が良い
- しげよ (6/5): - ウェルカムコーヒーが、朝も飲めると嬉しいです。 自販機にお酒を置いていただきたいです。
- masayuki (6/5): - 駅から近いし、静かでよかった
- Andrew (10/5): - Friendly staff, very close to subway station and namba area for entertainment/food/shopping
- Harumi (10/5): - 駅から近く 万博へ行くのにも乗り継ぎがひとつ増えましたが、ノンストレスでした
- ひろこ (6/5): - 連泊にさせてもらいましたが、同じお部屋でしていただいて対応された方もとても感じが良かったです。
- Daniel (2/5): - The pictures and reviews did not properly represent the room we were staying in. The room was incredibly small as was the bathroom facilities which when we've paid quite a lot stay here, we expect a level of quality that unfortunately was just not there. The room that we were staying in was deemed as a Smoking Room, we are not smokers, and this made our stay worse. The room was so smelly, the smoke from previous guests was stuck to all the walls and furnishings which I can't imagine is pleasant even for smokers, maybe consider an outdoor smoking area instead? Staff were very friendly and tried to help where they could but I do feel like maybe there was a small language barrier issue.
- Aaron (10/5): - Great location, amazing and helpful staff
- TANOMJIT (8/5): - โดยรวมดี ราคาถูก เดินทางง่าย แต่ได้ห้องสูบบุหรี่ได้ กลิ่นแรงไปหน่อย
- Ruben Gerardo (10/5): - Todo muy bien excepto el cuarto de baño, es muy pequeño
- Mo (10/5): - 静かで快適に過ごせました。
- Fumiyo (8/5): - 地下鉄駅に至近、そして京セラドームと隣接するイオンモールも歩いて約１キロと大変便利な場所にあります。朝バイキングは種類が少ない軽食(洋食)ですが、朝用であればこれで十分というところでしょう。コーヒーが14時から22時までいつでもいただけるのはありがたいですね。フロントスタッフの方々の対応も良かったです。是非また利用したいです。
- M (10/5): - 京セラドームのコンサートに行くために利用しました。ドームまでも近くとても快適に過ごせました。ありがとうございました。また利用させていただきます。
- ? (8/5): - 給湯の設備が昭和。温度設定ができないのはちょっと古すぎるかなと思います。
- Hiromi (6/5): - 京セラドームから近いため滞在。最低限は確保されたビジネスホテル
- tommy (10/5): - フロントの対応もよく京セラにちかいのでまた行きます
- あい (6/5): - スタッフの方がとても親切で丁寧に対応していただいたので良かったです。 ただ施設自体が古く廊下は少しカビ臭く感じました。居室内は臭いは気になりませんが、狭いです。 大浴場は綺麗で良いのですが時間制で男女分けているのが不満。（女性が17〜21時、男性が21:15〜25:15）大浴場が一つしか無いので仕方ないのかもしれませんが、それならもう少し利用時間を長くして欲しいです。
- ?? (10/5): - 良かったです！
- Adelyn (10/5): - Walkable from the JR station (15min or take a bus (5min Ride).This hotel is located by the subway station ~2 min walk distance. Everything was clean and convenient (laundry room in premises) but the AC did not work in the room. The hotel is older but it is priced accordingly. It was worth the stay to get around and visit tourists areas in Osaka. For a budget friendly stay it was great!
- MIKI (6/5): - 浴室の排水溝？の臭いが気になりました
- ?? (8/5): - 建物が少し古かったですが、全然気になりませんでした!
- Curtis (8/5): - It was nice and cozy
- クミコ (8/5): - チェックイン時 スタッフさんの対応、とても感じ良くてよかったです。
- masahito (8/5): - スタッフの対応が気持ち良かった。 風呂、洗面、トイレの水回りが狭かった。
- Atsushi (10/5): - 安かったのが、よかった。
- Verified traveler (8/5): - エアコンの内部が結構汚れていた
- Verified traveler (10/5): - フロントの対応が非常によかったです。
- Verified traveler (8/5): - スタッフの方の応対が良かった。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - チェックインのスタッフさんが印象良かったです。
- Verified traveler (6/5): 駅近格安のお宿 - ホテルスタッフの対応は良かったです。 部屋のテレビが付かないと連絡をしたらすぐに対応に来て頂けました。 シャワーの水圧も良かったですが エアコンとトイレの音が気になりました。 横か上の部屋かは分かりませんが ﾄﾞﾝﾄﾞﾝと叩く音(壁に何ががぶつかってるのか)が気になりました。
- かまぼこ先生 (8/5): - 朝ご飯美味しいですぅ
- Verified traveler (10/5): アポロビルに近い - 地下鉄の桜川駅近くでコンビニも近くにあります。コインパーキングもあるので車も安心です。また、天下のアポロビルに歩いて500mなので帰りも楽チン。
- Verified traveler (10/5): フロントの方々の心地良さ - フロントの方々がとてもいい方ばっかりで滞在期間嫌な気持ちせず、むしろ楽しく気持ちよく過ごさせていただきました。ありがとうございました。また使わせて頂きます。
- akio (6/5): エコノミーホテル - 駅近ですが、便利な場所とは言えません。 部屋は、狭いながらも必要な物は揃っており、不自由はありませんでした。 残念ながら、コロナ禍の影響で大浴場と朝食が中止となっており、楽しみは半減されましたが、スタッフのハキハキとした挨拶が、とても気持ち良く聞こえました。
- Verified traveler (6/5): 泊まるだけなら - 京セラドームでのライブの為宿泊しました。フロントの方の対応は親切で感じのいいものでした。お風呂はユニットバスでトイレと同じ空間なのでかなり狭く、少し不便さを感じました。枕元にコンセントはありません。 ベッドに横になると、真上にエアコンが来るのですが吹き出し口の埃気になりました。他にもお風呂の扉の飛び散ったような汚れと、ベッド下の埃。過度な期待はしていませんが、せめて目につく所は綺麗にしておいてもらえたらと思います。 京セラドームまでは、歩いて10分程度。電車でも京セラドーム、難波どちらも一駅。駅から直ぐで、周辺にはコンビニや飲食店もあるのでその点は大変助かりました。
- Rhonda (8/5): - This location takes quite some time to get to a bullet train using the JR pass. Small hard bed and cramped conditions especially the bathroom. Staff were wonderfu,l, friendly and very helpful.
- Aimee (8/5): - Was a good room to stay in. Met all our needs.
- Yumi (8/5): - Toilet in room is too small. The check out time is a bit too early which is 10am. Other than these all over is good
- ActiveID (10/5): Nice hotel - Late night check in was good. Stayed in Osaka because of train schedules back to my area.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Easy spot - I'm coming back. Definitely picking this one again.
- Verified traveler (4/5): The Frown Hotel Namba - We arrived there around 2 had to wait till exactly 3 to check-in. The bed was extremely small for two people so we were very uncomfortable the whole time. Everything seemed like it hadn't been cleaned properly and felt dingy. The bathroom was tiny and had a terrible smell the whole time we were there. The breakfast was bare bones and bad. The location wasn't even worth while since we had to take the subway to get to dotonburi everyday since there is nothing around the hotel. The costs add up every time so you're spending more money just to get around and find a decent breakfast. I would highly recommend staying somewhere else since the price is not worth cutting corners for comfort and cleanliness.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Toilet very small, compared with standard Japanese room. Quality of breakfast slightly below average, anyway undertandably the room rate is cheap.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Compact! - I only booked this hotel because the other hotels within a reasonable budget had booked out due to the busy cherry blossom season. The room, bed and bathroom were tiny, even for Japan. Could barely turn around in the bathroom. My partner hit his head on the towel rack when getting off the toilet and I nearly knocked the sink off the wall while attempting to get in the shower (we're not big people ourselves). Although I think there are rooms that are bigger than ours, but we didn't have an option as it was almost fully booked. Breakfast included various Japanese food such as fish, rice, soup and tjen eggs and other meat, which was cold as it wasn't kept in a bain marie. Showers in shared bath are traditional Japanese and were lovely. Natural hot spa was also lovely. Women could use this from 1700-2100 and men from 2115 until 0100. Bathrooms had toothbrushes, shavers, a comb, cotton tips and a hair dryer, which was convenient. Very close to train stations, but JR stations were either a 15 minute walk in either direction. Approximately 20 minute walk to Dotonbori. Given that this hotel was called Smile Hotel Namba, it would've been nice to have actually been located IN Namba. I knew this when booking as I'd done my research, but for those who book without looking too much into it, be aware that it's not right in the middle of Namba and it will take you at least 15-20 minutes to walk to areas with good food, shopping and nightlife, such as Namba and Dotonbori.
- Verified traveler (8/5): convenient, great service - The staff was great and service was very good. The hotel itself is a little old and could use a little sprucing up.
- Tamie (4/5): Staff at front - Staff at front talked bad to customers and could not communicate in English (stayed on 13-17 Sep 16). Suggested to get someone who could be more polite to customers. My expectation was actually not that high at this price but I'm quite serious about this service.
- Natthawut (10/5): Good location - Good location close to subway
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice hotel - Small room but big comfy. We had a great time there. Thanks smile hotel
- marta (10/5): A smile is worth a thousand words.. - Upon arriving, found out that my luggage did not get here yet..so front desk Morimoto asked for my receipt and asked Japan postal for me. Found out my name was not on label but I got my luggage later that nite. Front desk speaks enough English for me..only wish their name on nametag was in English. Kohei always greeted me upon arriving. Breakfast was Japanese style so some Westerners may not like it, but I love This kind of food, was healthy and delicious. There was always coffee and hot tea! Room was quiet and comfortable but the maid came in twice on different days while I was in the shower. I know I put the sign out! I am glad that I had 2 pillows instead of one. Hotel was hard to find on a rainy day, and really no restaurant around except Royal Host plus a Coffee Shop but it closes early. Maybe some of you want to go to Dotombori Street. I come to Japan to see old friends and eat this healthy cuisine
- Verified traveler (6/5): Location isn't great - All staff never say hello to us and each time we pass reception never smile but they let's us check out late.
- Keith (4/5): Our holiday was ruined by rude hotel staff! - Upon entering 'SMILE Hotel' we thought it ironic that we were greeted by the coldest and rudest staff we have ever met in Japan! We travel to Japan on a yearly basis, and have met plenty of locals who have always showed us a good time and delivered impeccable customer service. We can't say the same about the staff at SMILE. The staff on concierge were incredibly rude to me and my group of friends during our stay. Not once were we greeted in a friendly or helpful manner. One of our friends didn't know how to use the washing machine and instead of helping us, the lady at the concierge laughed at her sarcastically and refused to help. During our stay, we had removed the key from its bulky packaging and left it in the room. One of the cleaners must have taken the packaging back to reception. Upon checking out and returning our key, the lady at the concierge gave me a rude look before fetching a male colleague who physically tried to intimidate me! He came up really close, and started waving the key's original packaging in my face, and yelling "WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY!?" He was making such a scene that everyone in the lobby looked our way. I was completely taken back by his rudeness, and had to tell him to back off. I am still in shock that we received such rude customer service at a hotel that received such a high rating on Expedia. We will never return and can't recommend this hotel to anyone based on the experience we had with the staff there. What a shame!
- Michelle (6/5): Near Metro Station - This is a hotel to use for 1 to 2 nights in Osaka. There are no thrills here but it is located near a metro entrance and has breakfast. Not as tiny as a lot of Japanese hotels but definitely a budget hotel.
- Jetsada (8/5): Good hotel and valuable price - The hotel is overall good
- s (2/5): Wouldn't stay here - I wouldn't stay here again . Small couldn't even open suitcase had to put it on the bed bed . Bathroom was so compact if you were tall you would bump your head and ziti tying on toilet your knees would hit the door . And sleep you get none as room was on road front . No double glazed so to keep noise out breakfast stop 9 am out by 10 terrible plus staff don't speak any English at all so no help
- Rachel (8/5): Good basic hotel - Good basic hotel, close to underground stations and only five mins walk from JR Taisho. Room was standard business hotel room, bathroom was a little on the small size even by Japanese hotel standards but the shower worked well. Free breakfast with Japanese and continental foods.
- CHUEN HOWE (8/5): Good Hotel with affordable pricing - Hotel was around 10 - 15 mins from to JR Station. Room is clean with friendly staff. Able to squeeze in 2 adult + 1 toddler (14 mths) There's a 24 hrs supermarket across the road and a 7-11 nearby, very convenience.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Japan honeymooning - Good location. Simple easy hotel. Good facilities for a short stay. Nice staff
- Joel (8/5): Convenient, comfortable, and clean - Affordable and conveniently located, with a helpful staff that speaks at least some basic English, Smile Hotel Namba is a good place for travelers on a budget who still need some kind of comfort. Never mind that the rooms are small; you'll only use yours to sleep, anyway.
- Jeun (10/5): Positive - Great experience in osaka
- SSU YI (10/5): - EVERYTHING IS GOOD
- Verified traveler (4/5): Average hotel - Very small rooms. Hotel staff very friendly and English is poor.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Value small hotel - This hotel is a bit far from the town. It is located one more stop (sakuragawa) from Namba by subway. When you first arrive with luggage, make use the exit no 2 from Hankyu rail tram,it is the nearest exit with escalator.
- maggie (8/5): Tiny hotel - Really small room, but canny find better one than this in the same price, can't complain
- Margot (4/5): Osaka Trip - The room is squishy small. Really. Prior to booking, expedia says it's good for 3 pax. After I paid, it went to one. I could only managed up to 2 pax only. When we asked for an extra bed, hotel staff said they do not have it, that we should call expedia instead. Before our departure, we asked if we could borrow their weighing scale. As soon as brought down our luggage, another staff refused. He said that we should go to airport instead because their weighing scale is intended for boxes (packages) only. Staff were not really accommodating at all. They always give us cold shoulders whenever we asked for help. Breakfast was terrible. We could only eat bread and butter, but I like their unli coffee the most. I would suggest my fellow travelers to book a hotel along Shinsaibashi and Yodobashi areas. Though, it's a two minute walk to the station, fare is a quite pricey. Also, for my return trip, I would not booked at this hotel anymore.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Average Stay - Average stay in summary. Clean, free wifi, sufficient for a 3 night stay. Bathroom is very tiny even for Japanese standard. Breakfast is Japanese food, and offered free for guests so nothing to complain. Location is closer to Sakuragawa station Hanshin line compared to Sennichimae line. One station away from Namba, but probably better to stay in Namba itself for extra convenience. Neighbourhood is quiet.
- Verified traveler (8/5): comfortable stay - The hotel was near exit 2 of the hanshin railway not the subway. The wifi wasnt working on the first day when it was full house. I think too many people were trying to log on. It worked fine on the second day
- SUSAN (8/5): Excellent staff. - Hotel is close to a Metro station and only 1 stop away from Namba. Staff's very helpful and those we dealt with spoke English very well. We were allowed to check in half an hour early when we arrived, and a taxi was booked for us when we enquired about getting one to take us and our luggage to the station in Namba, and the taxi was waiting for us when we came down to check out. Breakfasts were provided and were adequate, though the Japanese breakfast was better than the western-style one.
- Edward (6/5): - Right above the train Station, conveniently connect to everywhere of Osaka. we stayed four nights but the WIFI is not working until our last day of stayed, a bit disappointed. The public bath really helped after a whole day walked. Nearby are supermarket and few local restaurant which you can have local meals rather than those tourist spots. The only draw back is the breakfast which is very limited and pretty average. Staff speak limited English. Overall I enjoyed stay in this Hotel because it is only one stop away from Namba.
- Andrew Mun (6/5): Close to Sakuragawa Station - Very close to Sakuragawa Station. Friendly staffs. Breakfast time 1st come 1st serve. WiFi not accessible during night time.
- Keith (8/5): Small room but very functional! - Great location and you'll have everything you need in a hotel room even though the room is tiny in American standards but that's to be expected in Japan. Overall, our stay was pleasant and enjoyable. The continental breakfast was a pleasant surprise cause they had a lot of choices and the food was fresh and tasty. It would have made the stay even better if the staff spoke a little English.
- Kannikar (8/5): The room is a little too small for 2 persons - I appreciate to the staff service, they are friendly and helpful.
- Wiraporn (8/5): good but need english fluent staff - Hotel is good but some staff cannot understand English quite well and make us upset
- Natalia (6/5): Osaka-Namba - room could be cleaner, 5am cleaners in the corridor could be quieter, but free working WiFi and free good buffet breakfast and coffee facility 24hours, close to Namba area.
- suresh (10/5): Excellent - Very clean place and had a comfortable stay
- Verified traveler (10/5): highly recommended - Helpful staff & delicious breakfast not farm from Namba
- Verified traveler (8/5): Very clean - Great hotel for a couple of nights stay. It's close to the subway and really clean. The staff were a little indifferent compared to other places in Japan, but still ok to deal with. Breakfast was decent. It's not close to any 'hot spots', but it's only one stop away from bustling Namba and close enough to walk to (about 2kms). The bathroom was tiny, but I stayed at another hotel and the bathroom was the same size, so it might be standard size for this quality of hotel.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Clean hotel - Room very clean, bathroom tiny. No complaint.
- Sesh (6/5): OK Overall - Was upgraded to a non-smoking small double room, while my original booking was for a smoking single (non-smoking wasn't available online). Check-in was quick and the staff were courteous. Room was tiny and the bathroom was tinier - smallest in all my hotel stays around Japan so far. But, for the rate I paid that included breakfast and as a single traveler who just returned to the room to crash, I couldn't ask for more. There were other nice add ons like coffee and hot/cold water 24*7 at the lobby and staying on the lower floors right above the lobby, my phone was able to pick up some free wi-fi signals as well! The breakfast looked like a good spead, but being vegetarian, the only choice I had was some bread.
- Steve (8/5): Location, exit 1 - Hotel was nice. Hotel's staff are friendly, but their English is limited... Hotel is simple, bigger than expected. All rooms are small in Japan... I love the coffee machine on the 1st floor- wifi- free
- Steve (8/5): Smile Hotel - Hotel was nice. Hotel's staff are friendly, but their English is limited... Hotel is simple, bigger than expected. All rooms are small in Japan... I love the coffee machine on the 1st floor- wifi- free
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice ,Clean , Good Staff - The hotel is near subway and private railway station. The room was clean and breakfast more than the other hotel.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice budget hotel one stop from downtown Namba. - I have stayed in a few budget hotels in Osaka area, and this has been the best for me so far. It has good wifi and ethernet in the rooms, decent sized beds and a small but functional bathroom and shower. Overall it was just what I needed.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice little Hotel - Nice for the price, close to a subway line. Not like the bathroom because it was extremely small.
- Chan (8/5): Nice little hotel - Less than 100 rooms in total. As usual, the room size is "standard" in this type of hotel in Japan of less than 150 sq ft. The room is clean but the toilet is mini. Two subways are right next to it with less than 3 minutes walk. 1 station away from Namba (bus terminal and train station to airport) and right there, 1000+ shops are around.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Smile Hotel - Was after a budget hotel, and this ticked the boxes
