Hotel is directly above Nankai Namba railway terminal and subways which allowed us on a wet night to travel from Kansai Airport direct to the hotel without getting wet. On arrival at Namba... More

I don't imagine hotels in Osaka get much better than this, not with the value for money that is on offer here anyway. The staff are wonderful, so friendly and polite and speaking english. The location is directly above the train station in Namba. Perfect. The rooms are clean, well designed and comfortable. Thanks Swissotel for the ongoing pleasure of... More

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

Stayed here in April, the location is fantastic and very central. The hotel itself is great, everyone we encountered was really polite and helpful. Had breakfast on the top floor. Simply amazing, and no better way to start a day in Osaka! Definately will stay here when we return

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
