Overview

Osaka Excel Hotel Tokyu showcases the city's opulence through interiors that capture its lively atmosphere and a kaleidoscopic night view from the high-floor lobby and restaurant. Guestrooms come with a soaking bath that offers an impressive view of the Midosuji nightscape, so you'll rarely be without a vista to admire. The hotel is strategically located just around the corner from the Hommachi subway station, so you can easily traverse the city. The Osaka Castle is about 30 minutes via public transport, and the 10th-century Osaka Tenmangu shrine is 20 minutes.

The hotel also features a bar and lounge with a calm atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. Other amenities include a fitness center, coin laundry facilities, and a smoking booth. Past kimkim travelers have noted the hotel's breakfast buffet, appreciating the large selection of fruits.

My stay at the OSAKA EXCEL HOTEL TOKYU was a bit disappointing. The room was smaller than expected and the hotel seemed a bit tired. The four-star rating promised didn't match the reality, as it felt more like a three and a half star hotel according to hotels.com. The room was so small that it was difficult to find a place for our suitcases. I didn't feel like the hotel offered full housekeeping, although we could request certain services. Overall, I was not thrilled with this accommodation. Read more

Premium Twin Room, beds were pushed together which we immediately had to seperate but had limited space to do so. The majority of one side of the room was taken over by an oversized daybed. This could be half the size in the room and still be very useful and make more space for the table and chair by the window to not make the space feel overcrowded. The closet is not enclosed here.

Premium Twin Room, beds were pushed together which we immediately had to seperate but had limited space to do so. The majority of one side of the room was taken over by an oversized daybed. This could be half the size in the room and still be very useful and make more space for the table and chair by the window to not make the space feel overcrowded. The closet is not enclosed here. This was my favorite bathroom set up of all places I stayed. The sink area had plenty of counter space for storage of personal items. The shower was huge and easy to operate to the right temperature. The breakfast buffet had the most fruit selection of all places I stayed at because they had bananas. The tricky part of this hotel is that you go up to level 16, then take another set of elevators down to the rooms. There wasn't a constant presence of taxis in front of the building but the front desk was happy to call for one and let us know when the car was downstairs.

Authenticity & Character
This place felt very lux.
Location
It was close to a station but didn't stay long enough (only 1 night) to explore the area.
Staff
The staff was happy to assist with getting a taxi for our departure. This thoughtfulness is the reason I gave them 4 stars.
Cleanliness & Comfort
Bed was very soft and sheets very comfortable. The temperature in the room was perfect.
