MIMARU OSAKA SHINSAIBASHI EAST

The place is clean and it's near many wonderful and interesting places like the shinsaibashi street, kuromon market etc. We had a good time staying there and staff there knows many different languages.

Stayed here for 4 nights. Location was great. 2 Family Marts and 7 Eleven close by. 5 minute walk to Daimaru and lots of little streets with eateries. Close walk to Dotonbori. Reception held our bags until we could check-in. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was located on Level 2. We were 4 adults so stayed in a 40sqm room which had 2 single bed and bunk beds which were huge. Shower/bath was separate to toilet. There was a kitchen with cooktop and larger than mini bar sized fridge with a freezer. Plenty of cutlery and crockery. Plus a dining table. Bins were emptied and towels replaced daily. The room was exceptionally clean. We were given 4 tokens on check-in which we could use for either sake, a bag of snacks or coffee pods from the reception area. There's a coin operated laundry room on the ground floor which was so handy! Took 50 mins to wash and dry a 7kg load for JPY1,000.

We had a great 6 night stay here. The staff were exceptional, nothing was too much trouble, and they were always friendly and very helpful. The location was great, close to train lines and shops and attractions. The room was a good size, and had everything we needed including a small kitchen. Would definitely stay here again!

Location was good. Walkable to the main shopping stretch with easy access to loads of food options. Staff were all great, friendly, helpful. The connecting coin laundry came in useful as well as we could do a load, go back to the room and come back for it later.

The hotel was in a very central location in Shinsaibashi. It is about 8 minutes walk to Dotonbori and 8 minutes walk the other direction to Daimaru and Parco malls. Daimaru and Parco are located along the Shinsaibashi covered shopping street. If you pay an extra 5,000 yen, you can check in at 12 noon if there are rooms available. The apartment was spacious enough for the 3 of us. The shower area and toilet were separate, which is common in Japan. The shower area was big for Japanese standards and it comes with a shower and bathtub. Toiletries like body soap, shampoo and conditioner were provided but not toothbrush or toothpaste. The wifi strength in the apartment was strong and download speed was fast. The staff at the front desk were polite and professional but almost robotic to a sense as they always said the same thing when we returned.
