Hotel Forza Osaka Kitahama

This hotel is really just fantastic. So clean, elegant and well designed in the room, which was a lot more spatious than you would expect for central Osaka. Blackout blinds were great for getting over jetlag, bed was comfortable, bathroom was sparkling. The downstairs area was also great ... free coffee machine, a microwave to eat stuff you might get from the convenience store and a comfortable place in the restaurant to sit and eat, work, or meet. Check in and check-out were fast and easy, and we stayed there at the beginning and end of our trip so were able to store our luggage for free. The staff was always extremely hospitable, professional and helpful, and there was every sort of amenity you might need (and never knew you did ... pajamas?? an automatic massage pillow?? ) Finally, the neighborhood was just right ... it was very quiet and peaceful at night, close to the park/river, with some surprisingly good restaurants around. Also Umeda was just one stop away on the subway but none of the hectic-ness from that area. Couldn't recommend this place more.

The location was great. It's very close to Kitahama on the Sakaisuji line and Yodoyabashi on the Midosuji line of the Osaka Metro, allowing options to travel through the town of Osaka. Some restaurants and convenience stores are also nearby for food needs.

Love the location that’s in the center, beautiful surrounding near river, close to stations, and close to the North and South Osaka famous spots but not crowded as it’s around offices. Also close to cafes, restaurants, and convenient stores. Especially loving the massage pillows in every room! Best idea ever for a hotel. Never find it elsewhere before. Also love there’s almost every necessary facilities are provided for hotel guests in public areas, like washer and dryer, microwave, free coffee machine, and ice machine. Housekeeping take out trash daily and change towels everyday and will make up the room if the sign is put ip on the door. Some staff were nice and try to be helpful. Thank you.

Perfect location to everything, giving you options to different metro lines, but also still walking distance if you don't mind getting some steps in.

The hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. The breakfasts were absolutely amazing—rich, varied, and definitely worth it. The selection even changed daily, which was a delightful surprise. The location is conveniently close to the metro, making it easy to get around the city. The hotel and rooms are exceptionally well-equipped, offering thoughtful extras like a massage pillow in the room, a massage showerhead, and plenty of complimentary amenities, including bath salts, coffee and tea, and even a luggage scale. This attention to detail truly enhanced our stay. Highly recommended!
