"Great people and comfortable bed"

"Quick check in and out. A bit tricky to find initially as hotel starts on 7th floor of links shopping centre. But once found is a great hotel handy to transport. Would stay again"

"Fantastic location for Universal goers. Super easy access and hotel staff is very friendly. Easy to get cab to city or train right there. Room was large, 3 beds, great view of the park."

"Excellent location, not the quietest as very near train tracks but it didn’t disrupt my sleep. Sad to know it’s closing down because i definitely would stay there again if I ever return to Japan. "

"Excellent service and staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was wonderful with good western and asian food choices. Only drawback was that we arrived late and there were no nearby restaurants open or room service. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay and would stay again the next time we are in the area."

"This hotel is situated on a main street and close to the exits from Umeda station and subway. There is a handy elevator from the subway exit to ground level and the hotel is about 100 m, so no need to struggle with cases. We couldnt find the hotel at first, but if you looked up, the name was emblazoned above the top floor. The entrance is down a small alley which is signposted and there is a 7/11 shop under the hotel. Check in was swift and friendly and the room was probably the most spacious we had in Japan. We had two really comfortable double beds, a spotlessly clean bathroom with all amenities and plenty of luggage space. Getting around Osaka was easy from the hotel due to the subway access, although the JR Lines are about a 20 to 30 minute walk through the subterranean maze of shops and restaurants in the station concourse. There are plenty of places to eat in the area. Breakfast was expensive, so we found nearby places to have breakfast. We had a great stay at the Monterey Le Frere hotel and would not hesitate to recommend it. "
