This APA looks and feels like a grand hotel. It's amazing. The onsen and breakfast buffet is excellent! Only a block from a subway/train station, and about 10 mins walk to Dontonburi. Choose this and you will have a great time.

Absolutely huge hotel, it felt like a city! Very impersonal as electronic check in and out. However, the spa facilities and hotel facilities such as the roof deck, 7 11 cafes and bars inside the hotel were excellent! Rooms incredibly small though!

Mis-use of the term Resort

I would hardly call this a "resort" and their motto of "efficient luxury" made all of us laugh. Was far from efficient and generally a chaotic scene in that lobby. Everything was meant to be kiosk or app driven, but somehow required an army of physical people to execute the task - defeating the point of the digital aspect. And signage/communication was piecemeal & all over the place... for example, at check-in you use a kiosk, however its a wall labeled "pay cash difference" - nothing saying "check in". Person after person had to stand in line and ask where check in was. The part that was the most ridiculous was using the pool-so be warned and/or informed...Yes, they state the hours + floor of the pool on the in-room tv info. What do they leave out? You must go to the top floor via the slow and overcrowded elevators. At the top, you will be greeted by someone who will tell you to get a wristband at the desk. Okay, back down 40 floors. You go to the front desk and are told you have to sign up for your 1-hour block of swimming. It also costs money for this hour (for 3 people this was about $40 US Dollars - which was highway robbery). They use a color wristband system that is designated for each specific hour HOWEVER you cannot pre-reserve, they will only allow sign-up 15 min before each block, despite the color code system. Be the first in line or you lose pool time as sign-up is slow.You have to bring your own towels, but they give you a glass bottle HADA soda at the top.

Nice and new hotel. Onsen is bigger than expected with sauna. Rome is a bit small. We picked connected room. Bed can fit for four but not much space then.

The property was very convenient to stay in, walkable distance from nearly everything one could want. It's basically in the heart of Osaka with some good entertainment spots like Dottonbori right by. Having the 24/7 convenience story inside the hotel was so useful. Staff was also always readily available!
