karaksa hotel grande Shin-Osaka Tower

Fantastic location 10min from Shin-Osaka station, if you have in your plan to use Shinkansen, this is your No1 choice. Also really big breakfast, with various options, from sops, fresh salmon, tuna to fresh yogurt and sweets. I have to mention also another great part of hotel, onsen. Our first experience, we really enjoyed every evening after our trips.

I loved the location and how convenient it was, just a 5 minute walk to the station which saves you from feeling tired from walking with your luggage! This was the most comfortable stay out of all the hotels I stayed at!! I loved the onsen and the cleanliness of facilities! The staff was also very accomodating and kind !! I made a youtube video about my stay, you can watch it here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNwST-scs4k&feature=youtu.be

What I liked about the hotel was how much space it had and how convenient it was due to being next to the Shin-Osaka Train Station. And it was right next to a Lawson convenient store as well giving you easy transportation and food when needed. In terms of the room itself, it had a lot of space, you could control the lighting easily and the shower as well as toilet had their own separate spaces in your room. Which I honestly thought was very nice.

Great location close to Shin Osaka station. Metro close by to get wherever needed. Room was comfortable, comfortable beds, great shower pressure. Lovely staff. Would recommend staying here.

It’s roughly 5-10 minutes walk from Shin-Osaka Station making it a really handy place to stay in, especially if you’re trying to catch the Shinkansen the following day without having to leave in a hurry. The room we stayed in was quite small and tight (with the three single beds), so we couldn’t really open our big luggages, but it was something I already had an idea about from the photos provided so it didn’t surprise me. The beds and pillows were comfy though! We also enjoyed the shower (no bathtub in our room). There were plenty of amenities available in the room and also that the staff has told us we could take from the lobby. The staff were really nice! They let us leave our luggages in the lobby with them before check-in so we could comfortably sightsee around the city. Even though my Japanese is basic, I thought it would be more comfortable for them to converse with me in their language rather than in English so it was no problem on my end, and everything went smoothly. Definitely would liked to have stayed here longer next time!
