Es un hotel moderno y nuevo, ubicado muy cerca de la salida de la estación. Las habitaciones son cómodas pero dirá que un poco chicas. Realmente se puede descansar bien por qué están muy bien insonorizadas. El desayuno es muy completo, lo único para marcar es que no tiene amenities como la mayoría de hoteles de Japón en su rango de precios.

The only thing I think I can say is that this room lacks chest of drawers and the rush to use the washing machines. Everything about this place was good and the price wasn't too bad either (compared to western hotels). The location was a bit unusual to get used to if you're not used to big city life like me but you soon realise how well connected it is with easy access to the rail and shops (way too many shops and restaurants to count- Japan is crazy!)

This is a new hotel in the area and shopping mall right next to it. It’s very clean and neat. More on a luxurious level.
If you want to shop around or kill time walking around, it’s in a perfect location. It’s a little walk to Umeda and Osaka station area but it was not that bad.

The only complaints I have are:
-the lighting in the room and bathroom are dark.
I had to find a best lighting spot to put my makeup on in the morning but it was still too dark. I wish the lighting in the bathroom at least was a little brighter or “woman friendly.”

-convenience stores are some walk away. I guess I’m so used to having convenient stores within a minute away from numerous hotels I’ve stayed that it felt inconvenient to walk about 5 minutes to get to a store just to get some snacks or bottle of tea.

First time staying at this hotel. Great location within walking distance to the main transportation hub, shopping, and plenty of dining options. Staff are friendly and the check‑in process is relatively quick. we had a corner unit, which offered a quiet view and a nice perspective of the city. The room is quite spacious.

The only drawback is the amount of settled dust—on the shelf, table, window panes, and vents. It was especially noticeable in the bathroom, where you could see dust falling whenever we used the washroom.

The staff were gracious and helpful all times and even brought us an iron to our room on request, complete with ironing board. The hotel is connected to a large upmarket shopping complex with high end stores and restaurants. We absolutely did not want to leave! Thanks again and we will be back!

For years I have come to Osaka several times a year but always avoided staying in the Umeda area. I think this hotel changed my mind. The entire Umekita area sort of took the world by storm in early 2025 just in time for the Osaka Expo, but this was my first time staying there (now in May 2026) and quite frankly, all of the issues I have with staying in Umeda -- the confusion over Osaka Station being sprawling, the hotels all being on dark alleyways, the cramped small rooms that smell like cigarette smoke or oily griddles depending on which thing the hotel is next to -- Umekita is shiny and new and nonsmoking. If anything, I could imagine the complaints some tourists might have about it is that it's TOO nice -- it doesn't really feel like Osaka, it feels like one of the fancy skyscraper districts in Tokyo now.

Anyway, Gran Respire, our room was amazing, it had separate toilet&shower rooms, the shower room was huge, the main room had a nice sized bed AND a couch next to it with a table, and best of all, the bed wasn't in a corner but you could walk around it on both sides (maybe only 40 cm between the bed and the window but still). Getting there was confusing the first night but once we figured out to exit on 2F, go across the bridge to the JR Osaka West Exit -- very quick. I would definitely stay here again if I get another good rate (it was like 17000 for a double, which is crazy good for such high quality).

Lots of shopping and restaurants very close by and easily accessible with multi level walkways, mostly under cover. Since Osaka station is only a few minutes away very easy to get to other parts of the city or other popular destinations.
Staff are very friendly and helpful and most can speak at least some English. Would definitely stay here again if we return to Osaka.

Gym had limited equipment (cable machine, a couple treads and bikes, along with a few free weights) but did the job. Also, there are four laundry machines (both washer and dryers are combined) which you can monitor their availability via your room’s TV.

Overall a modern, clean hotel! It was quite the pleasant stay, and it was beneficial being right next to Osaka station (there’s a bridge in the second floor of the station that connects to the mall that leads to the hotel’s 2nd floor entrance)

Laundry availability is 4 washing and drying machines. Many times owners of the wash left the load in and did not pick up timely. The hotel gives them an 1-hour grace time to pickup after the load is done. It means during busy times, many guest are left hanging.
To improve time-effectiveness of using the washing machines, the hotel can consider adding a feature on the pay interface to register the room# of the guest using the machine. When the load is done and other guests are waiting, the front desk could alert the owner of the load to pick up timely.
Failing that, the hotel should charge 'delinquent' guest (owner of the a finished and not-picked-up load) a service charge to unload and store the load for them.
I was waiting for an hour at the machine before the front desk would come up and cleaned out the load as per their policy.

I enjoyed some things about this hotel, but others not so much. Although the hotel is new featuring modern decor, the hotel rooms are tiny - the smallest hotel room I’ve stayed in. The bathroom is worse - there is no way an adult or an older child could have a bath with their legs stretched out (if you wanted to use the bath that is). One thing I did love was the tablet control panel by the bed - I could change the temp, turn on/off lights without getting up. The window is floor to ceiling which was nice, although our view was of the train station! I wasn’t able to change the tv language to English and I couldn’t connect to chromecast. So that wasn’t great as we stayed in at night. Check in was self-service kiosks (not a great experience and not at all welcoming) with members of staff standing by to help. I think it works for repeat visitors but not people new to the area where the experience could have been more welcoming and more informative e.g., some tips on where to go. Although the hotel is within walking distance from the train station and department stores, I didn’t feel it was a child friendly hotel. Also, the beds are rock hard and the pillows are flat so that wasn’t good for me although I appreciate others may prefer that. The onsite vending machines didn’t have a wide selection and I didn’t see any food benefit machines that other hotels have. No laundry facilities on the hotel room floors. And finally the toilet paper is 1-ply. Overall, it was an ok stay.

The rubbish inside the room wasn’t been clean up everyday and was told by the staff on third day of staying when asking the staff. It was very non-hygienic and not acceptable. The staff just told us to wrap the rubbish by ourself and leave it outside the room if needed and didn’t mentioned that they will arrange to replace new rubbish bag for us! Also if we want to have housekeeping of the room on the third consecutive day, the staff told us not to press any button on the pad and they will arrange to come inside the room to clean up. This was not mentioned by anyone of the hotel during our check in day as well. The arrangement was massive as the pad didn’t mentioned of this arrangement as well.
