Kaneyoshi Ryokan

Location was great - close to all the action, clean rooms (we stayed in a ryokan style). Very helpful owner, was at the front desk every day for questions and went out of his way to help us with train times for our next locations on our trip - SO helpful, we didn’t even have to ask he just went ahead and printed out loads of info for us.

An excellent location with easy access to public transport (5-10 min walk). It is nice to experience Japanese hotel settings in the middle of the city. The breakfast was ok, although I would recommend to not taking the breafast as there are a lot of food shops close to this place.

Nothing worth mentioning.

Staff was very helpful when arriving and providing our needs! Highly recommended for Japanese style accommodations and excellent bath house.

Excellent location in Dotonbori and close to Kintestsu-Nippombashi Station. The room definitely had character but it was still very clean and relaxing. The bathroom was also clean and actually not too small (for Japan). The room was plenty spacious enough for me on my own. I also really enjoyed getting to wear the yukata provided! The staff were all very friendly and the gentleman working at the front counter (manager?) was so, so helpful, he provided me with some great tourist booklets and had good recommendations too. Absolutely the most pleasant concierge I’ve ever met. Unfortunately I didn’t try the meals but hopefully I will get to next time - because I would definitely love to stay at Kaneyoshi Ryokan again in the future!

It can be a bit noisy at night from the streets but that’s just Dotonbori - I thought it was worth the noise to be so conveniently located, and actually the inside of the building itself was quiet. There’s also a lockout from 1am to 6am which personally didn’t bother me but could be difficult if you want to fully enjoy the nightlife.

Friendly staff and good location
