난바 야사카 신사 주변 × 일품요리를 즐길 수 있는 숙소만족도 평가가 높은 호텔·료칸

This stay was once again completely satisfying. We were blessed with great weather, and from our high-floor room we enjoyed a spectacular view, including a beautiful sunset sinking behind the Rokko mountain range. The Japanese set breakfast was excellent and made us feel happy from the start of the day. This was a return visit, and we were truly touched that the staff remembered us and greeted us warmly. Even when staff members change, consistently delivering “stable, first-class service” is proof of a truly outstanding Hotel. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and courteous, making our stay genuinely comfortable.

A newly opened APA Hotel—since it’s a resort, it met my expectations. It was clean and stylishly designed. There were plenty of elevators, the lobby was spacious, and the staff were polite—overall a wonderful Hotel. The large public bath was also spacious and had a sauna, but I was concerned about some overseas guests’ manners. Many people got into the bath without washing first, and in the sauna some went straight into the cold bath without rinsing off their sweat in the shower, or headed to the locker Room without drying off. I wish there were easy-to-understand etiquette notes in each Room in multiple languages. It felt like they simply didn’t know the rules. I also thought having a slipper rack inside the lockers was a great idea. I did notice dirt building up in both corners of the hallway, but inside the Room was clean. What made me especially happy this time was the gentle tone of voice from the parking fee attendant, and their thoughtful service, such as offering me a chair—I really appreciated it. The person who gave directions also kindly explained how to get there, for which I’m grateful. I was able to head home feeling good.

Thank you very much for your hospitality. This was our first stay, and we used it as our Accommodation in Namba after the Yoshimoto Shinkigeki show. [Room & Amenities] This time, we stayed in the “Swiss Executive Room King.” The amenities were standard, but the view from the Room was amazing—perhaps because it was on the 32nd floor. Since the Hotel is built above the Nankai Railway terminal, it’s a dream for train lovers. [Staff & Service] The front desk staff were excellent. Hotel parking is a bit pricey at JPY 3,300 since it’s in central Namba, but given how convenient the location is, it didn’t bother us. Also, because we stayed in an executive room, we could use the lounge. It was great to grab a bite before Yoshimoto Shinkigeki. [Onsen / Bath] The bathroom in the Room had a shower-over-bathtub setup. Since it’s an older property, I suppose that’s to be expected—nothing special, just standard. [Facility & Equipment] The Facility does feel dated in places, but as you’d expect from a Swiss Hotel, the clock near the entrance left a strong impression. The next morning (as part of Takashimaya), browsing watches at WatchMaison was also irresistible for watch lovers. We also used the pool—the glass ceiling made it feel wonderfully open and refreshing. [Dining] Dinner was difficult because Yoshimoto Shinkigeki ended around 10:30 p.m., and most nearby restaurants were already closed. Since our family doesn’t drink alcohol, we struggled to find somewhere to eat. However, venues on the 36th floor of the Hotel were open late. We had dinner at Table36—the view was spectacular and everything tasted great. Our daughter loved the view so much that instead of having breakfast on the 33rd floor breakfast venue, we chose to dine on the 36th floor as well. Breakfast there was also excellent. [Overall Satisfaction] Overall, we were very satisfied. We plan to stay here again when sightseeing in Namba. Highly recommended!
