Hotel Alps

The staff was really nice, they were able to check us in a little early which really helped us out coming from Kyoto so we didn’t have to store our luggage. The location is top notch with so many choices to eat and shop literally feet away from the hotel. We stayed in the penthouse room with a deck all to ourselves with an amazing view of Dotonbori skyline. However there were some things that could use improvement. The bed was really hard and uncomfortable, our bidet did not work for the first two days of our stay, they did offer to change rooms but we declined since we were already fully unpacked. The kitchen did not have any utensils or plates or cooking equipment which didn’t bother us but just be aware if you are wanting to use the kitchen. Our bathroom sink faucet needed to be fixed as it was wobbly when used, and if you stay in the 13th floor you have to walk up three short flights of stairs to get to your room, carrying your luggage in tow. The property is showing its age some as well… and regretfully we also saw a cockroach in the stairwell coming down from our roo, which we didn’t let the staff know about as it’s just something a lot of older buildings deal with in large cities. The breakfast offered was decent but nothing stood out, it was nice and convenient. Overall it’s a good place to stay right in the middle of all Dotonbori has to offer.

The room was a wonderful room but a little dated, the bathroom was like a spa, we liked how convenient it was to everything ,the staff was nice and helpful can’t wait to go back.

Booked a triple deluxe room for myself and two daughters knowing that Japanese rooms tend to be smaller. What a delightful surprise to have a room with not only a couch and 3 beds (both shown in pics) but also a full walk in shower with a deep jetted tub, a bidet toilet and a massage chair. Breakfast was fresh and different every day. So close to the Namba Station, markets, Dotonbori and local restaurants.

The location was perfect (close to restaurants, shopping, and metro)! The room was spacious and clean, and the amenities were great. Breakfast was good overall as well (although I would recommend adding some fruit options). I would stay here again!
