Dorsett by Agora Osaka Sakai

New hotel. Bigger rooms than usual. Good views of sea side. Everything is clean and of good standard. Friendly reception. Micro bathroom as in other hotels. But well kept and very clean. Many rooms are connecting rooms with a door to the neighbour. The door is locked of course. But it may have negative noise issues. Ask for a room without connecting doors. On the down side: This is a tour group hotel. Lots of people and lots of noise. The breakfast was particular unpleasant with many bad behaving guests. This is not what you expect in Japan. We had breakfast outside due to this problem.

Very nice rooms. New and stylish. However far from the train station. Hard to navigate with someone that has a disability with walking. Far from everything. However for solo travelers pretty good for the price. Breakfast was okay not worth paying 2500 yen for though.

We stayed at Dorsett Agora Sakai Osaka for one night. The front desk staff were very accommodating and helpful, which we appreciated. The hotel itself is modern and conveniently located for those who have business or errands in the Sakai area. However, there were a few things that could be improved. When we first checked in and used the elevator, there was visible trash inside. Unfortunately, the trash remained there for several hours as we continued to use the same elevator. It was only cleaned by the time we checked out. In the room, there was no complimentary bottled water provided, which is something we expected. We are a family of three with a 7-year-old child, but the room was only prepared with two towels and two pillows. When I requested an extra pillow and towel, I was told to come to the front desk to pick them up myself. Additionally, the shower head in our bathroom was leaking at the base, which made showering a bit inconvenient. The hotel is located in a quiet area, but there are very limited restaurant options nearby, so it might not be the best choice for tourists looking to explore or dine out easily. Overall, I would recommend this hotel only if you have specific reasons to stay in the Sakai area. For a relaxing vacation or family leisure trip, I would look elsewhere.
