We stayed 4 nights (May 13 - May 17th 2012) at the Swissotel Nankai Osaka which is located above the Namba Station, superb locations with its train/subway station, Takashimaya shopping and not to forget the shopping arcade at Shin Sai Bashi-Suji / Daimaru Department store and a lot of places to eat at the Dotombori area...Hotel staff were very friendly...

It's so convenient you don't have to think twice about finding the hotel. Right above Namba Station, the hotel, with it's whole block of clean, safe rooms, greets you almost immediately. It's walking distance to a gem of restaurants and shops so your huge luggages are pretty much filled with new purchases within hours. The only drawback is the rooms... More

My family, 17 of us, stayed at Swissotel for a week from April 13-19, 2012. Excellent location - right on top of the train station, connected to Takashimaya Dept. Store, walking distance to several malls and Shinsaibashi, a major shopping area. The rooms are comfortable, offered a lot of amenities. I particularly enjoyed the espresso machine & the heated water... More

We had to stay one night in Osaka before heading off to Takayama and then Kyoto, so we decided to stay somewhere close to the train station to avoid running around with luggage and elderly parents. Swissotel Namba is right on Namba station so it's extremely convenient. After booking this hotel a few weeks ago, I decided hey, since I... More

I stayed here from 4/23 - 4/25/12. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. The rooms are big and luxurious. The staff was very professional, helpful and attentive.

In a previous review, I described the hotel's decor to be frumpy, past it's use-by date. Pleasantly surprised, I was, to find my room on the 23rd floor recently refurbished, in understated, contemporary style, to a high standard. The room was certainly small, but maximum use was made of the space. Features abound. Kettle, tea set, espresso machine, very comfortable... More

Swissotel in Osaka is a reasonably priced hotel With clean spacious rooms and bathrooms. One feature of their bathrooms that takes special notice is their "Toto toilet" . All hotels should have this. The hotel is centrally located by the Namba Park complex and connects to the train stations . Our family will certainly return to this hotel. More
