阪急大阪格兰龙仕柏酒店

I’ve stayed here several times already. I usually book the Club Floor to relax with drinks in the lounge, and also to work out in the pool next door at Ren and soak in the Onsen.On day one, after check-in I headed straight to the lounge. The familiar staff welcomed me warmly, saying things like, “Today we have Taketsuru,” and “Your usual Blanton’s is right here”—which made me very happy. When it’s hot, beer is a must to start. Three draft beers plus a can of tomato juice makes the perfect Red Eye at just the right moment.I went out for an early meal (after 4 p.m., everywhere is quiet), then came back for whisky time in the lounge again. I enjoyed Taketsuru and Blanton’s on the rocks, with beer as a chaser. Iichiko from a flask mixed with orange juice was also delicious. For my next visit, I requested a good amazake—I’ve recently gotten hooked on drinking amazake mixed with sake.The next morning, I felt refreshed after an early soak in the Onsen—so relaxing. When the lounge opened at 10:00, I had one last beer and headed home satisfied. Thank you again for another wonderful stay.

It was close to the station, and it was very convenient for dining out.The room was clean and quiet, and we could see the station and high-rise buildings—it really felt like Osaka. The bathroom was spacious with a separate washing area, and I liked that it was separated from the toilet.I was very satisfied and would like to stay again if I have the chance. If I had to mention one thing, many of the guests were foreigners. There were no problems or trouble because of that, though.
