Close to subway station. Located in a business area. Streets not flooded with annoying tourists. Cabs waiting at the front door of the hotel most of the time so it is easy to catch a cab for train station. Plenty of restaurants although not in thousands available within 10 minutes walk from the hotel. Room size is adequate, can handle two 29 inches suitcase. Front desk staffs friendly and efficient. A good choice unless you want to stay in the center of shopping and entertainment areas

There is a subway station exit right beside the hotel door. The station is Yodobashi and exit 6 in the station has elevator if you have large suit-cases otherwise use the stairs. Both stars and elevator will take you to 10m of the hotel door. The staff is friendly and helpful. The room size is good, large for japanese standards. At the eleven floor there is a room with ice machine and microwave available for all guests for free and a vending machine a little bit expensive compared to the one in the streets. The hotel is not in a busy area like the surroundings of Glico Sign, this is why we choosed it, but it is a few subway stations from those sites.

As I had work in Yodoyabashi in Osaka in the morning, I arrived the day before and chose the Daiwa Roynet Hotel Osaka Kitahama to stay at.
They had a smoking room, and Daiwa Roynet hotels are clean and reliable, so I was right to choose them.
There was nothing wrong with the hotel or the room, but I did have some trouble finding it, as it was only a one-minute walk from Exit 6 of Kitahama Station. When I arrived at Kitahama Station and tried to find Exit 6, it was so far away...
Even though it's connected underground, it still felt like quite a walk.
Also, when I got above ground, I couldn't find the hotel entrance at all (the sign was not very noticeable) and ended up walking around the entire area.
I was glad I had time, though...
You'll understand if you go there once, but I'm sure people staying there for the first time will have the same experience.

My rating is low and I start with this premise: it is low by Japanese standards which tend to be very high. In the USA I would have given a 4. In the UK 5. The staff here is also always kind and friendly, unfortunately most of the staff do not speak English (a bit strange in the center of Osaka and in a business hotel). Fortunately, I speak Japanese and the small inconveniences were resolved quickly. I had already tested other Daiwas over the years in Tokyo and Kyoto and they were on another level. Unfortunately the rooms in this one are spacious but not modern nor particularly clean by Japanese standards. Considering the much higher price compared to all the hotels I have been to in Japan over the years, I draw my conclusions by giving it a 2. My advice would be: remove the old carpet and fix the bathrooms (I had a superior room so the large bathroom you find in the online photos)

Book this hotel during my stay with family ( 2 adults, 2 children) for osaka trip in mid of january 2020. The closest station is osaka metro subway kitahama station while the entrance of this hotel is right next to the ground exit of the station. The room is spacious..the bathroom in equipped with the bath tub. No problem during the check in or check out everything goes smoothly. Really recommend this hotel for staying with the family since the access from kansai airport is very easy (only need to change line from tengachaya station to the sakaisuji line)..

Pros Next to Kitahama station. Very convenient. Some shops and restaurants nearby for meals. Quiet area. Room is clean, well organised and beds were comfy. Bathroom is the typical bath tub with open shower room, amazing toilets and ‘free’ toiletries available to take from the lobby. Wifi was fast. Staff were polite and helpful. Breakfast was small was a wide enough choice. Cons None really. Couldn’t find any recycling bins.

Stayed here for 3N... loved it. A very business like hotel, with some amazing, fantastic features which i love: 1) RIGHT NEXT TO THE SUBWAY (Kitahama station). Very convenient to head to KIX airport (just 1 transfer and 1hr away). This station is also just 1-2 stops away from the famous DOTONBURI and NAMBA street markets which you must go to explore. 2) Shower water pressure is HEAVENLY. So strong. So hot. So much water coming out.... perfect to massage away the tiredness of walking. 3) WiFI is super duper fast, with no nonsensical logins required. Just connect and that's it! 4) Hotel staff are friendly and most speak English. 5) Humidifier and hot water kettle provided, yaay.
Downsides: the bed is hard (japanese style) and the pillows are hard too. Don't like them. Would be good if the hotel gave complimentary water bottles as well. Unclear for first timers, where the lobby is (goto 3rd floor). But all lifts automatically stop at 3rd floor anyway, regardless of what floor you're going to (annoying after awhile) so you can't miss it.
Remember to take EXIT 6 from kitahama station. that takes you right to the hotel which is to your immediate left.

we stayed at this hotel for 7 nights in a double room.
Pros: - Infrastructure: This is a new hotel by the Daiwa House Group. The property is very modern, clean and new. Room is a bit bigger than the average Japanese hotel room size. We didn't feel cramped with our 2 big suitcases and lots of shopping. We stayed on the 9th floor and throughout our stay we didn't hear noise from outside. It was a very comfortable stay. - Superb housekkeeping: This has to be one of the cleanest hotels I've ever stayed at. I would give housekeeping 10/10. . - Location: This hotel is located in The Kitahama area, which is a 10 minute train ride to the Shinsaibashi/Nanba/Nippombashi shoppning district (or a 20 minute walk.); a 40 min train ride to Kyoto and 35 min ride to Universal Studios. - Famous eateries nearby: At first glance, the hotel seems to be in a business district, but one could soon realize it is surrounded by an array of famous Japanese restaurants. i. Gokan cake shop. a 2 minute walk to the left of the main entrance of the hotel. The main store of Gokan cake shop is sooo near and they serve the prettiest, most delicious fruit cakes ever! Try the ones with melon as they are in season now. SOO GOOD. We went there 4 times during our 8-day stay in Osaka. ii. Torikizoku (焼き鳥なら『鳥貴族』) - a Japanese kebbab chain. 15 second walk to the right of the main entrance of hotel. This restaursns serves kebbabs and alcoholic drinks all at the price of 280yen each. amazing. iii. Shibato - a 140-year old unagi don shop. it's a 10 minute walk from the hotel and offers the most delicious unagi don in osaka. Eng menu: www.shibato.net/en_ryori.html iv. Sekaino Yamachan - a restaurant famous for its chicken wings, 10 min walk from hotel. this is a chain from Nagoya and has shops all over Japan. We went there twice during our stay. awesome wings. - Supermarket/convenience stores: Right across the street from the hotel is Kitahama Plaza, and at the basement of it is a supermarket. Kitahama Plaza is surrounded by 3 convenience stores as well.

Nice Location... but before you come here, make sure you do this: get your home bed sheet, put on the floor. Than, get two potato sacks, those that you buy at supermarkets, and fill it with rice. Than you sleep over the sheet on the floor using the rice sack as your pillow. Do that for 3 days before getting here, so that you do feel the same way I am feeling today after having sleept on their "Bed". Ah, very important too: on the day before you come to this hotel, make sure you go to bed very late, like 4 AM (we had done that since our flights got in at 1 AM). Than put your alarm clock to wake you up at 10:50. I explain: their check out is at 11 AM. At 11:00 Am, they will call your room. The phone will rind for 4 times. In case you are tired and miss picking up the phone, they will knock at your door at 11:01 AM letting you know it is time to go. They want you out of there. Or they will be nice to offer you to stay till 1 PM for $20. Detail: they will let you know it is $20 but will not accept dollars at all. If you do not have yens, because you got in late and the currency exchange at the international airport is closed at 11 PM, they will tell you not to pay, speak Japanese in front of you, and kind of let you know they did not like that. Well, usually hotels exchange currency for you, not? Anyhow, other than the bad sleep and wake up call straight at 11 AM, the rest will be ok. Nothing in the small refrigerator (nothing, not even water to drink at 3 AM upon arrival) and dont even think to eat. Bring some chocolate in the bag so that you have something to keep you sweet upon arrival. Than you are probably asking why I am giving 3 stars. Well, because the bathroom is a little plastic box that they put in the room. The shower is small but nice, and the toilet bowl seems like you are in one of the nasa spaceshipps so much there is for you to play with it. So, 3 stars for that as it was fun to play with it. I have to stop writing now as my back hurts! But it is low price, so good cost benefit. Ah, and wifi is free and works fine!

Thank you for your staying. Our hotel is business hotel. We think our hotel's room is small for tourist. But we have big size room (Deluxe Room). If you stay here again, we recommend you reserve this room type. And our hotel's check out is 11:00 a.m. But we are waiting few minutes for guest. So, if you want late check out, you need pay extra fee. Our hotel's staff aren't good at speaking English. Some of the staff can speak English well. But ALMOST staff can't speak English. We hope your understanding about it. We are looking forward to see you again. Thank you

My wife and I did extensive research regarding where to stay in Osaka, Japan. In our opinion, it would be very hard to beat Daiwa Roynet Hotel Osaka Kitahama for location, comfort and cleanliness. For a lower than average price we weren't sure what we'd find once we arrived. However. From the moment we stepped out of the taxi, we were overjoyed by the entire experience at the hotel. We booked two rooms, one for us and one for our 20 year old son. The trip was his college graduation gift.
The staff was quite efficient. The rooms were nicely decorated with very comfortable beds & pillows. The wifi was super fast as we researched Osaka and surrounding region. The bathroom was large with plush robes and oversized towels.
Each morning we ate at the hotel restaurant which was buffet style with a delicious combination of western and Japanese food and drink. Very comfortable setting and never missing any items at the buffet.
The location can't be beat for those who are sightseeing the heart of Osaka and beyond. Daiwa Roynet Hotel Osaka Kitahama is connected to the Kitahama, Sakaisuji Line, subway station. It was so easy getting everywhere on our itinerary. There are plenty of great places to eat within walking distance. Most cheap to very cheap and some higher end restaurants.
Take a look at our photos of the hotel, you can't do much better unless you pay a whole lot more. Why would you?

This hotel is close to an underground station - so rail would be an option depending on the time of arrival for your flight if you will not be on trains during morning or evening peak hour and do not have too much luggage. The hotel is directly connected to Kitahama Station on the Subway Sakaisuji Line.
Or I would look up booking a minibus as taxis will not take 5 people, and managing your luggage on public transport may be difficult. Try Kansai airport transfer as a search term.
There are more places to choose from in the Chuo area.
