Osaka Tokyu Rei Hotel

The hotel's location is excellent. Turn right out of the hotel and you're on a commercial street full of restaurants. If you go straight ahead after turning right, you'll find an underground shopping street, which can be a bit disorienting if you're not good with directions. The service and cleanliness were also very good.

The hotel is conveniently located just an 8-minute walk from Hankyu Department Store, if you turn right and walk straight. Behind the hotel, there's a street called Higashi-dori with many snack shops. The M10 exit leads directly to the lively underground shopping street, Izumi no Hiroba, which connects all the way to the B1 floor of Hankyu Department Store, offering an incredible variety of food.

Coming from Umeda Station, you'll want to find the East Mall, then walk straight until you reach exit M10 of WHITY PLAZA Izumi Square. The first time can be a bit confusing because there are so many people, so make sure to look up for signs. Once you've done it once, it's easy to navigate, and there's an elevator exit. The room size is moderate and has everything you need.

The hotel room was great, much larger and more spacious than I expected. It had all the amenities you could need. The hotel is conveniently located right next to Umeda, just a short walk away. Plus, there's a Don Quijote store nearby, which is handy for shopping.

After arriving at JR Osaka Station, I followed the navigation and eventually reached the hotel after a right turn and a left turn through a shopping street. It's a quiet oasis nestled in a bustling area. Since it's right above a shopping street, finding food is incredibly convenient with plenty of options. I arrived just before 11 AM and only wanted to store my luggage. I have to praise their system here; they have a dedicated luggage room on the first floor where you can secure your bags with a combination lock from the rack. No need to keep a key, just remember your code. So, I happily went out to explore and eat, and it was perfect to come back and check in later. The photos were taken while I was out sightseeing.

This hotel is located not far from the subway station, which is quite convenient. There are two 24-hour supermarkets directly opposite, and the area is surrounded by high-rise buildings and countless department stores. For this neighborhood, an 18-square-meter room is considered quite spacious. However, the only downside is that the cleanliness wasn't as good as I expected; it seemed a bit haphazard. The photos are from a nearby spot where you can get a panoramic view of Osaka's night skyline 🌃.
