The hotel is located right next to Osaka Castle, providing a view that is truly breathtaking. While the room had a hint of cigarette smell from the floor, it had a charm reminiscent of old hotel rooms. The service was exceptional, with incredibly helpful and polite staff waiting for us upon our return from touring. The location by the old Castle was perfect for our short stay in Osaka. However, the dining experience, with both Japanese and Western fare, could be improved. Overall, it was a great stay with a few minor drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although spacious by Japan standards and offering views of Osaka Castle, had a noticeable stale and old smell. The service was decent but could have been more attentive. The location, right next to Osaka Castle and in a business district, was convenient, but the dining options were a bit pricey for what they offered.

The hotel offers decent rooms with a bathtub and a view of the Castle, but the lingering smell of cigarettes and cigars was a downside. The friendly and helpful service near the castle was a great plus, although the aging decor was evident. The location is ideal for exploring the city and enjoying a nice view of Osaka Castle, but it may not be the best choice for non-smokers. The dining options are limited but well-appointed. Overall, a satisfactory stay with some room for improvement.
