Great place to stay just 5-10 minute walk to the nearest subway station, it's walking distance to Dotonburi area but still within a very quiet area so location is top notch. Staff extremely friendly, considerate and helpful, they offered an early check-in as the rooms were available 2 hours before official checkin time. Clean and comfortable rooms with nice A/C working perfectly.

There is really nothing to dislike per se but if you travel with big luggage then the room will be very small and walking around it will be tough, it is true that rooms in Japan are mostly very small and this one is no exception.

Great location, near to Dotonbori and 2 subway lines (Osaka metro and JR). Amazing helpful staff. Lots of free amenities and refreshments in the lobby. Rooms were really clean and comfy, quite spacious for Japan standards. There was no iron but there was a pants press available, as well as coin laundry and luggage storage services. We requested for luggage delivery service and the staff was really helpful in arranging it!

Almost nothing! Everything at this hotel was so great I'm so happy I chose it. However I just have a couple of suggestions to make my review a 10/10: - Please place hand soap in the toilet (there is none so we had to use bath soap) - Please place more cups in the bathroom to store our toothbrushes Other than these minor improvements, I would say this hotel was pretty much perfect! Highly recommend it to everyone looking to stay in Osaka 😄 **something to note, the upper bunk of the bunk bed is quite near to the ceiling, taller guests may reconsider booking this room. We are Asian girls so this wasn't an issue for us.

We were met by lovely staff who were really helpful. We got a quiet end room and it was clean and minimalist. The utilities like toothbrushes etc were at reception so they didn’t go to waste having fresh ones in each room every day. Also very close to the station!

The room was just very small, which is typical of the city so I didn’t mind it too much. It would have been great if the bath and toilet were in different spaces but the set up was new enough that it didn’t really matter anyway. Also I couldn’t figure out the air conditioning even with the instructions, but to be fair I didn’t call down and ask

The property is very clean and I like the way they did the decoration of the whole place. The staff is really lovely and helpful. They speak English and in some rare cases if they don’t, they will help you with a translation app. Room service to clean rooms during your stay are on request. There’s free WiFi, free coffee, tea and water. The location is perfect, 5-10mins walk to Namba station. I overall loved it and am already missing my room away from home!

I have nothing to mention what I didn’t like, but I can imagine that some people would like more spacious rooms, while I just find this type of room very lovely and cosy. I have to say I was travelling alone, so I can imagine it might be a bit crowded if you have 2 people staying in the same room. The other thing that might be an issue could be a low bed, but I also have a low bed at home so I actually prefer it ;)

Location: The hotel was conveniently located near Station 32 of Namba Station. Hotel Staff: They were very friendly and accommodating. Communicating with them was easy. I left my camera in a cab and one of the hotel's staff, Hana, talked to the taxi company on my behalf so I could get it. Thanks to her, I got my camera back. Value for money: It was very affordable. I think it's perfect for friends or couples travelling on a budget. The room was adequately sized, the usual for budget hotels in Japan, and all the basic amenities were there.

The laundry machine and dryer was almost always in use and the dryer didn't dry our clothes well, even after 1.5 hours. If you're planning to do your laundry, I'd suggest just doing it in the coin laundry a few meters from the hotel.

The size of the room for a single bed is what I ideally look for whenever I travel alone. There was enough room to walk around the bed and have my suitcase propped open whenever I needed to without feeling cramped. The bathroom was also a good size.

By the end of the first night, there was a slight urine odor that persisted during my stay. I don't know if it was the plumbing or it just so happened to be a one-time thing, but my stay was short, so I just endured it.

For us first timers we didn’t know how to get to the property. We used Google maps and after 12 minutes of walking voila we were able to locate Meander Osaka Hotel. Toiletries are readily available in front of the receptionist. All the staff were accommodating and helpful. They gave us instructions on how to take the train &!to be sure they even wrote it down. The property is a few minutes to family mart and the train station.

It would have been better if there was a vendo machine (snack & drinks) in the property.

Good size room for young family of 4. They have coin laundry available to do washing. Staffs are friendly and helpful. Bread are offered every morning for hotel guest. Good size bathroom . Amenities provided except yukata. Location is 6 mins walk from Osaka Namba Metro station

Location bit far from Dotonbori area around 13 mins walk but you can always take the metro to go to city centre. Not much shops or convenient shops around the hotel

Great simple hotel, small private room with good facilities. The room is small, but I’m 6’ 1” and it was fine for me and my partner. It’s a little difficult to manage your baggage but once you’re over that it’s great and the location is perfect for Namba, Dotonbori etc.

The coffee could taste better 😂
