The location is excellent - very handy for the Loop Line with a station just a two minute walk away. There are dozens of restaurants nearby with a range of Asian food and tapas for some reason. The room is certainly adequate and cosy is a word I would use to describe the size. Japan hotel rooms are notoriously small but the room was fine for me as a solo traveller. The bed was very comfortable and housekeeping do a great job keeping everything clean. The television has YouTube and other video services. The hotel staff are very good and a special mention to Xhao, who really went above and beyond with my luggage forwarding. There is access to free washing machines. The ironing room is handy also. Breakfast is also available, although geared towards Asian guests. The lifts were always available and fairly quick. Check in and check out were both super fast. Very nice staff. Indeed I was a little sad to leave for Tokyo!

There is nothing to dislike about the property. Some guests on Booking will moan for the sake of it, it seems!

Great hotel only a few minutes walk from station. Staff absolutely went above and beyond for us during our stay. Upon hearing we were due to travel to Tokyo on the day all Shinkansen had been cancelled due to a typhoon warning, the female reception member changed our duration of stay, organised new tickets for us (so we could travel before trains stopped) and even came to the station to help us get them. 5 star plus service. She deserves huge praise for all the help she provided us. A credit to the hotel and we shall recommend this hotel to anyone we know coming to Osaka.

If you want to have a Western breakfast you need to request that when checking in so you can receive vouchers to go to the sister hotel and have a fantastic breakfast. It was only a short walk away. The location of the hotel was great, very close to the train station. Also a short train ride away to Universal Studios which was perfect. If you get a good understanding of Japan's rail network then it's fantastic and very easy to get around. The hotel was very clean and towels changed daily as well as beds made. The laundry facilities were free (amazing and really appreciated). You can monitor the laundry facilities availability via your TV through the hotel. (saves you going up and down the lifts!!) While the hotel was close to the train station we didn't have any issue with noise.

Nothing. The hotel met our expectations.

The location is close to the station and lots of restaurants in between the 2 min walk from there. Staff are incredibly helpful, greeting you once they see you. The hotel is beautiful and the rooms were small but also well decorated and lit. It has a nice picture spot on the reception floor. Also, cannot understate how amazing the free laundry machines were. We used them twice to keep our clothes fresh and they even have an ironing room right next to it. Check the TV for when it's next free and line up before because there was a line when I went in the evening.

I didn't realise that for amenities like face cleanser and moisturiser you had to go to the front desk and ask. 1 of the 3 laundry machines were out of order. Made the wait for the next free machine longer.

Returning to Hotel Hanshin Annex Osaka before heading back to my home country was a delightful decision. The consistent quality of service and accommodation made my second stay just as enjoyable as the first. The hotel's proximity to Fukushima Station remained a significant advantage, allowing for easy travel connections and last-minute explorations around Osaka. The room was again spacious and brightly lit, which is always a plus for me as it creates a more welcoming atmosphere. The staff were as courteous and helpful as I remembered, ensuring that all aspects of my stay were comfortable and hassle-free. It was reassuring to come back to a familiar place where the high standards of hospitality were maintained. Overall, my return to Hotel Hanshin Annex Osaka reaffirmed my positive impressions from the first visit, making it a reliable choice for anyone looking for comfort and convenience in Osaka.

My stay at Hotel Hanshin Annex Osaka was thoroughly enjoyable, especially due to the room's spaciousness and bright lighting, which I particularly appreciate as I prefer well-lit spaces. The room comfortably accommodated four adults, providing ample space for us to place our luggage on the floor without feeling cramped. The hotel's location is exceptional — just a stone's throw away from Fukushima Station, and only one station from the central Osaka Station. This proximity made it incredibly convenient to use the loop line for traveling around the city. Another thoughtful feature of the hotel was the separation of the toilet and bathroom, which added an extra level of comfort. Additionally, the area surrounding the hotel is vibrant, with numerous food stalls and a nearby minimart, making it easy to grab a bite or any necessities. The hotel staff also demonstrated excellent service by helping us store our luggage while we traveled to Kobe for two days. We appreciated this convenience so much that we decided to return to the hotel after our visit to Kobe. This decision enhanced our overall experience and highlighted the hotel's commitment to guest satisfaction. Overall, the combination of a strategic location, bright rooms, and convenient amenities made my stay at Hotel Hanshin Annex Osaka a delightful experience.

Very clean and the bathroom like new. Beds very comfortable, the hotel supply fresh towels and other personal items as well as offer to make up the room every second day or on request daily. The hotel location is very convenient 100 meters from train station and in strategic position one station away from Osaka centre and 4 stations from universal studios, Umeda building is within walking distance.

The room is a bit small which is usual in Japan’s hotels but it wasn’t a problem for us since we didn’t have big suit cases or a lot of luggage.

Best, highly recommend!! Room was lovely, bed was comfy, bathroom was great. Free laundry available that you can even check the status on your room TV! Microwave and ironing stations available. Free green teabags were tasty and tap water in room was drinkable. Even has photo spot at check in lobby. Staff was very helpful with arranging luggage delivery. Delicious room service that left your room sparkling clean. Restaurants and bars are literally outside the hotel entrance and the station was nearby. I would come back here again for sure♡

Sometimes can hear the sounds of trains and ambulance and police throughout the day.

Location was very convenient, close to metro station; breakfast buffet (western style) was kind of basic... sufficient to start your day not waisting time looking for different options outside the hotel; very secure area, there's a lot of restaurant next to the hotel that offer different dinner options

Everything was perfect; in General in Japan rooms are very small; this one was for sure one of the biggest ;)

Excellent location, right next to Fukashima Metro stop as well as a 15 minute walk to Osaka Station. The hotels was quite nice and comfortable for a three star hotel and was very affordable. I want to mention that the hotel is quite close to its more upscale sister hotel the Hanshin and for a discounted fee I was able to eat breakfast at that hotel's buffet which was quite nice with a large Japanese breakfast selection as well as enough western style choices for those who desire that.

Nothing that I didn't like. As I mention above, I was able to go to the sister hotel to have an excellent breakfast so did not feel concern that this option really wasn't available at the Hanshin Annex.
