New Osaka Hotel

Location : really close to shin-Osaka, so if you're planning to come and go to Kyoto for example, it's really easy. Not noisy, quiet despite its location. Quite clean rooms (not perfect, but clean enough at least for my standards), internet lan access working (but not really fast). Small room, as usual in Japan, but "large enough" for a 1m 81 guy, as I am (I did not have to lean in the shower, that happens sometimes here). The price is ok.

They barely speak english, and seem quite unhappy to see you, no view (my window was on a 1-meter large "street", so I had a splendid view ... on a japanese office). All tv channels in japanese (but I did not encountered yet in Japan an hotel with foreign channels playing). In a word, average. As somebody already posted here, I've tried both Claiton and New Osaka : Claiton's people are speaking english (and are clearly more friendly), it's only a few bucks more, lan is working better and rooms are larger. But you have to take subway to shin-Osaka (one station). So more or less a draw for me, depending on which criteria is the most important for you.

Friendly service- they let us store our luggage before check in time and also after check out since our flight was late at night. Although the room was small , it was clean. Lobby was nice and they had welcome drinks.

Room was small, no space for our luggage and no wardrobe to keep our stuff in hangers.

Excellent front desk staff! Very close to Shin-Osaka station.

Small room, but if you're travellling in Japan it's just the way things are!

Near to ShinOsaka Station - convenient

Room is old
