Great Spa that operates even after midnight. The room was very clean and nice but No AC during Winter time... and our room was way too small for two people... I would skip the optional Breakfast buffet next time (was not what i expected in varieties wise for the price but was good quality food!!)

The room is small as is typical for Japanese hotels. Staff were very kind and helpful. The bed, despite no box spring was actually comfortable and I am much larger than the normal person. The air conditioning is controlled by the hotel it self. They switched it from cooling to heating my last day there and I was burning up in my room. There was nothing I could do to make my room cooler other than open the window and hear the traffic.I was surprised that I did not get bottles of water daily like I usually do. I only got one bottle of water at the start. Breakfast was the same EVERY SINGLE DAY. I opted not to eat at the last day and just went to another place.

I had a great stay at APA Hotel Osaka Temmabashi Ekimae. The front desk staff were bilingual, friendly, and made check-in very smooth, which I appreciated as a first-time visitor to Japan. Everyone was polite, professional, and helpful throughout my stay.

The hotel was extremely clean and quiet. The room was compact, as expected in Japan, but well-designed and comfortable. It worked perfectly as a place to rest between exploring Osaka and nearby areas. Everything felt modern, tidy, and easy to settle into.

The location was excellent — only about one block from Temmabashi Station, which made getting around the city fast and simple. The neighborhood was calm and felt very safe, likely because the area feels more business-focused than tourist-heavy. For me, that was a plus. I enjoyed being able to return to a peaceful environment each night while still having quick access to transport and the rest of Osaka. The hotel also accepts major international credit cards, which made payment convenient.

Overall, this was a great stay with reliable service, a clean room, and a quiet but convenient location. I’m including a short Japanese note below so the staff can read my thanks directly. I would stay here again on a future trip to Osaka.

日本語（スタッフの皆様へ）:
丁寧で親切なご対応ありがとうございました。チェックインもスムーズで、安心して滞在できました。ホテルは清潔で静かで立地も便利でした。おかげさまで快適に過ごせました。また大阪に来る際はぜひ利用したいです。

English speaker first time ever going to Japan I must say I wasn’t sure what to expect, travelling alone I was a little nervous about everything but once I got to the hotel my nerves were calmed. Hotel is in a great area and feels very safe, hotel staff very welcoming and check in was super easy regardless of what language you speak because they just needed my passport for my reservation. Everything I needed information wise was given to me in English and the TV in the room also gave information on check out times. Hotel room was very clean and has its own controls to the A/C which made it very nice given how hot it was outside. Also stayed at an APA location in Tokyo and the quality was the exact same. Will definitely stay again, it’s not the fanciest hotel on earth but it’s clean, safe and easy.

Great location and sauna but checkout is too early

Overall, I enjoyed my stay. While the rooms are compact, typical for APA hotels, the layout is impressively efficient and maximises every centimetre of space. One of the highlights was the hotel’s sauna, which provided a relaxing way to unwind after a day of sightseeing.
The location is excellent: Osaka Castle is within walking distance, and there is a combini and a metro station right next to the hotel, making it very convenient for getting around the city.
However, it’s worth noting that the hotel’s approach to amenities is not eco-friendly. Every day, new towels, yukatas, and a multitude of single-use toiletries are provided, each individually wrapped in plastic and placed inside multiple plastic bags. If you care about sustainability, this practice is hard to overlook.
Another downside is the early checkout time: 10:00 AM, which feels VERY rushed. There is an option for a late checkout (until 11:00 AM), but this is only available to members of their loyalty program, which appears to be limited to Japanese residents…

Rooms are impossibly small. Two people cannot be standing up in the room at the same time. Booked for two people, but our room only had 1 pillow and towels. They gave a 2nd one on request, but it was removed by the cleaning service the next day. The TV is made for Japanese only with all VOD shows having low verbal columns and Japanese only subtitles. Staff does not speak English. Breakfast was the worst of the 6 hotels we stayed in while in Japan. Gave 2 stars because price was low. Oh, look up the politics of the APA owner and don't stay here.
