Hotel Raizan North

“I really love this place! The staff were all very friendly and the amenities were good. Nishinari is kind of gritty (by Japanese standards anyway!), but that's exactly why I like it. So some people may not be so keen on the area, but either way it's very close to the subway to it's super mega easy to get around Osaka fro here. Make sure to check out the great okonomiyaki place nearby called Chitose, and also the standing Takoyaki bar around the corner. They have a sento and sauna in the hotel too which is great, if you're in to that. The rooms are pretty small, at two tatami wide, but it's fine for a solo traveller. There's enough space for having a few bags in your room too. Oh, also, they have bikes you can borrow for free!”

“I really liked the baths! I enjoyed being able to experience a public bath with them. I also thought that the rooms were quite quiet while I was there. Locations was great too if you don't mind some walking. It's about a 30 minute walk to Dotonburi, 20 minute walk to Shin-sekai, 20 min walk to Shintennouji Temple, and more.”

“We can do our cooking at the common area with numerous utensils provided. The shower/spa facilities are in good condition.”

“Great location. Good breakfast/sitting area. Staff good too. Value for money was excellent. 3 minute walk to subway and 5 minute walk to bars and restaurants.”

“Very friendly staff and conveniently located. Free bike rental and Japanese style bath. Excellent value.”
