This place of worship in Higashiyama Ward is popular with many travelers, so make a spot for it on your travel itinerary. Don't stop there, though.

8.4/10 Very Good! (48 reviews)

First off, it's very clean and conveniently located right next to the Dotonbori area, offering a wealth of food and nightlife options. Easy access to two or three different subway lines. Also, the staff is devoted. We had a room that, for some reason, wasn't getting a good wifi signal. It was full of bars everywhere in the hotel, except in our room. We informed the staff, who immediately attempted a few unsuccessful attempts to improve the signal. The next day, a new signal repeater had been installed right outside our door, and we had full bars in our room. An email was in my inbox telling me they had done that. TBH, I thought that was impressively professional.

8.6/10 Excellent! (57 reviews)

They don't include regular room service and the size of the room was too small. It's not a bad hotel, but the location is not the best.
