Hiyori Hotel Flex Osaka Dotonbori

We stayed here for a couple of nights in a twin room. Upon check-in we were greeted politely by two receptionists (I believe that they are Korean) who spoke excellent English (Terry and another man) who gave us a run-down of the hotel. We were able to check in about half an hour before the stated time which was nice as well. We also enjoyed the pancakes and drinks in the lounge that were provided. Though common in Japan, the room was very small and it was difficult to open even one suitcase let alone two in the room. I will note that there was space under the bed for smaller luggage which was nice. Also standard for Japan, they do not service the rooms daily. It was very hot when we arrived and we found that the air conditioning was broken. We brought this up to the receptionists on duty who were genuinely concerned and fixed the issue immediately. The location of the hotel is perfect for exploring Dotonbori as it is only a 2-5 min to the Glico sign. It is far enough away to be quiet but close enough to walk to everything in the area. Namba station was about a 5-10 min walk. This hotel is amazing value for money. Wonderful location and service. We will return next time we are in Osaka.

Our stay here was enjoyable. The hotel is in a great location, right on the canal. The room was clean and spacious, and had a great view. We had a nice included breakfast in the morning with delicious pancakes. We were able to leave our bags after checkin which was helpful. I would recommend staying here.

Great hotel. The rooms are clean, small but have everything you need. Great location of the place, it is right next to the canal but far enough to not be disturbed at night. And great service. The staff is helping you with everything.
