Reviews of APA Hotel and Resort Osaka Umeda Eki Tower
Dennis S
Stayed here for two nights and the room was small but good enough (you got extra space under your bed). Seems to be a more Japanese oriented hotel since I got all kind of gifts which I as a tourist am unable to use or take home, but it was a kind gesture. Also the room without a view is a definite recommend, as you will hear no street noise. I did hear my very loud snoring neighbour but that didn...

As a single traveler, there’s a lotabout this hotel to love. The location is fantastic, surrounded by eateries and entertainment in every direction.

Once I got past the frustration of the first impression, it turned out to be a very nice place to be. All the ...

They guided us during the self check-in process, which made everything smooth. The room was small but smartly designed, with space under the bed to store luggage. The bathroom was compact yet well equipped, offering more than just the basic amenities a traveler mig...
