Karaksa Hotel Osaka Namba

I loved that our room had 3 beds & their 24 hour complimentary beverage service (their iced matcha and coffee were our favorites). Everything was walking distance and staff were friendly. My sister and I brought two check-in luggage’s. Although there’s no closet space, only a rack with hangars, we are able to leave our luggage open and store it under our beds. When we needed clothes, we’d simply slide our luggage out and back in which gave us more space in the room.

This is our second time to stay at Karaksa Hotel, this time around, I brought my family including my 80 year old mother. Location still was magnificent, my mom appreciated that most of the shops were very near, and food options were numerous. Very near Dotonbori, everything is walking distance. Breakfast was great, lots of options to choose from. It was nice that they would change some of the viands daily, but there were the usual constants that we liked. We appreciated the free drinks 24 hours of the day as well, plus the snacks that were unlimited all day. They also allowed you to bring food from outside and eat at the dining area, perfect when my kids wanted a late snack from McDonald's. Staff were very kind, check in and check out was very easy. They allowed us to do late checkout on one of our rooms for a small fee. Lots of stuff to do nearby, there's a Family Mart right around the corner, a McDonald's that's open at 5AM, and a grocery nearby. Lots of ramen places and yakitori and takoyaki places open late very near the hotel. Train stations are also quite near as well. The free toiletries that you could pick up in the lobby were so helpful as well, most of the things that you would need were there already. Room was spacious, bathroom and toilet were great, they were separate, so that saved a lot of time, when you're rushing in the morning. It met our expectation, most hotels in Japan don't really have much space, but this one did. I think this will always be our go-to hotel whenever we go to Osaka.

Karaksa Hotel Osaka Namba was the perfect choice for our stay in Osaka! The location couldn't have been better - just steps away from Dotonbori and surrounded by countless amazing places to eat as soon as you step outside of the hotel. Our family of 5 stayed comfortably in connecting rooms that were clean and well maintained. We also really appreciated the amenities and the free beverages and snacks available in the lobby - a nice touch after a long day of exploring. Highly recommend for families looking for convenience, comfort, and great value in the heart of Osaka!

The breakfast was really good with lots of options that's rare to come by at other hotel breakfasts. They offer complimentary drinks throughout the day, and other amenities are also freely available to choose from by the reception. The location is also quite central and the rooms were comfortable.

Well located, close to the main attractions and subway stations. local restaurants close by. shopping areas not too far away. convenience stores just down the street. Lobby area is well kept with water dispensers placed on several different floor for easy access. welcome snacks and drinks/sodas were a nice quality of life addition. employees are always so welcoming and warm. the washroom has a waterfall wash head option, very relaxing. sleeping clothes were nice and comfy along with high quality home slippers
