Hotels near Kishiwada Castle

"If your only purpose is to go to Universal this might be a perfect hotel for you. You had better have cruise ship experience. Both the room and the bathroom were smaller than our last cruise ship trip. The shower creaked when I stood in it, and the things rocked on the shower shelves as I moved. The shower was clean, the water pressure was excellent, and the products were nice. This room is probably exactly what somebody would expect if they had never been in another hotel in Japan. It is very small, and there was no closet. These rooms are a money grab for Universal. They have a “lounge” in the lobby with complimentary hot dogs (with tickets they give you at checkin) that should just be part of the lounge offerings. The staff at checkin seem to understand it is a cattle call hotel and react with the appropriate enthusiasm. Osaka is amazing, and I highly recommend the aquarium, but I am sure there are better places to stay for the same price point. "

"We loved the room we stayed in. It was perfect for a family of 4. The only downside was that there was no kitchen facilities, which is hard when you have kids. Even juat having a microwave and some cutlery would have been good. Other than that the staff were fantastic and we really enjoyed our stay."

"The staff was extremely friendly and helpful "

"This property is above and beyond. 5 stars for families! "

"Clean property. Great 2 night stay."

"The hotel was very nice and clean. The rooms were a decent size but the AC could not keep the room cool at night. The beds were a little more firm than I prefer. Both restaurants served good food. If you are early for check in, they will hold your luggage for you until check in. It's about a 15 minutes walk to Universal Studios or you can take the train that's right across the street. The downsides to this property are that it is NOT tattoo friendly. You will not be able to use the Onsen if you have tattoos and they will not allow you to cover them. Also, the single-ply toilet paper seemed like a cheap choice for such a nice hotel. "

"Huge room! Beautiful, beautiful room, comfortable, and clean. Easy to get to the airport from this stay"

"Overall the hotel was good. everything was clean, location was great. Only thing I would say could use an improvement on is the comfort of the beds, felt a bit lumpy to me."

"So nice to have a clean nice stay, easily accessed, after a long flight. The breakfast is excellent!"
