Arrow Hotel in ShinsaiBashi

Hotel normal pero antiguo, buena ubicación, habitación amplia, buen desayuno.

El edificio era antiguo, pero el baño había sido renovado y estaba limpio.

Front desk staff is very helpful and friendly. Location is good and with nice breakfast.

My first time at this hotel, I know it’s dated so I kept my expectations in check. It was the location and price that caught my eye. And wow, I was surprised by how well maintained it was. Yes, overall outlook was from the previous generation, but it was neat and clean. Room was definitely more spacious compared to some standard ones in Japan. The hotel aged well, chipped paint was not affecting my stay at all. They provided iced water in a thermo and it kept well into the next day. The bathroom looked newly renovated. One day I didn’t need cleaning service and they hung clean towels in a bag by my door. Breakfast was a nice start to my day. I would return here next time if my trip needs a base around this area.

After staying here twice, this has become my go-to place in Osaka! It’s a clean and quiet budget option conveniently close to the bustling Shinsaibashi shopping area. The staff are incredibly nice and kind, and the cleaning ladies are some of the friendliest and most genuine people I’ve ever met during my travels. For anyone looking for an affordable and comfortable place near the heart of the city, this is it. I’ll definitely be coming back here every time I visit Osaka.

The hotel was on a very convenient place, on walking distance to multiple metro Stations and dotonbori itself. Many restaurants and bars close by.
