Hotel Balian Resort Namba Shinsaibashi - Near Dotonbori

This hotel is truly a hidden gem! It has a separate toilet and shower room, and even though it's not super new, it's incredibly clean and tidy. They provide all the toiletries you could possibly need – seriously, you don't have to bring anything! The room is really spacious and even has a massage chair. Downstairs, there's a curry rice place (though it's more like curry sauce with not much meat, still tastes good!) and free-flowing ice cream and drinks. The location is unbeatable too – just a few steps to a food street, and the subway is super convenient. I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Osaka! 👍

The hotel has a Southeast Asian vibe with wooden carvings, a style popular with young people. The soft bed is quite large, and so is the room. You can pick up toiletries freely from the lobby on the first floor. The first floor also offers unlimited curry rice, popcorn, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, jelly, and ice cream. The location is excellent; you can step out and be in the most bustling nightlife of Shinsaibashi in just one minute, and Daimaru Department Store is about 6-7 minutes away. My only complaint is that there was a long black hair from a previous guest stuck on the hairdryer. I found it when I was drying my hair, and it was a bit disgusting, especially since all of us have dyed blonde or brown hair. Overall, everything else was good except for the unsatisfactory cleanliness.

Excellent location, right near Namba Station, and just a 10-minute walk to Dotonbori and Shinsaibashi. The shuttle bus to Kansai Airport is also close by. The hotel has a Bali-inspired theme. In the lobby, they offer free curry rice, cocktails, and a variety of drinks, plus karaoke rooms. On the top floor, there's hand-drip coffee available. The room itself features a three-part bathroom (separate toilet, shower, and sink), and they provide multiple brands of toiletries. The staff are very friendly and use a translator to communicate. You can check in early, and check-out is at 11 AM the next day, which is a big plus since most Osaka hotels require check-out at 10 AM.

The room was spacious and well-equipped, featuring a Japanese-Southeast Asian style. The location was convenient, and they offered a complimentary drink bar. Very good overall!

Facilities: Fully equipped with a curling iron, hairdryer, various shower gels, and hair care products. They offer free curry rice from 7 AM to 5 PM, and the drink bar has unlimited beverages. Cleanliness: Very clean. Environment: Excellent location, convenient for getting anywhere, with many popular 'influencer' spots nearby. Service: The staff are all very polite. During check-in, they clearly explain all the important information and benefits. Room: Besides being a bit small, there are no flaws.

The cleanliness wasn't great; there was dust in the corners. However, the bathroom was spacious and the room itself wasn't small. The location is excellent. They clean every three days. There are lots of food options downstairs, and all the drinks are free. I've already stayed here twice!
