While the hotel is conveniently
located directly connected to the Osaka Municipal Subway's Nanba Station, old Japanese
culture can still be experienced in the comfort of this ryokan with its
Japanese-style rooms each designed with a different theme.
The Ryokan style rooms are generous
in size and each room is equipped with tatami mats with low table and seating
and the finishing touches make this room very authentic. The bathroom was
a good size and comes with a bath tub as well the high tech Japanese toilet.
They supply slippers for you to wear
in-room, the futon beds were extremely comfortable and they even provide
Japanese style Yukata loungewear! Nice touch!
We did not get the opportunity to order breakfast in the hotel as we always eat out. We found the the reception staff were always very attentive, friendly and helpful.
This hotel makes an excellent base to explore
Osaka. A short walk away is the Namba, Kuromon Ichiba Market, Dontonbori (a principal
tourist destination) and north of the city is Shinsaibashi – a shopping area
with many boutiques and specialty shops, and many more places of attraction to add
on your list. With all of the things to do and see in a city,
deciding how to spend your time was an agonising decision for us, especially as we had only scheduled in 2 days on Osaka!
My next blog post will be a picture
diary of our time in Osaka, so please keep an eye on that post if you want an
insight to what Osaka has to offer!
And yes, Kev was playing Ninja, especially as he was in the right setting for it! Kids will be kids! ;)
