Aloft Osaka Dojima

My second stay here, everything is consistenly great, even the restaurant still has the same issue (slow coffee machine). You can find my previous reviews here: https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g298566-d23573162-r939951695-Aloft_Osaka_Dojima-Osaka_Osaka_Prefecture_Kinki.html ||For now, I only review the suite room which I think it's a great highlight:||The size of the suite is massive for a Japanese hotel. Basically it's double the size of standard room, except half is occupied by the guest toilet and living space. The living space is my favorite area, great layout overall and does not feel cramped at all. The giant Marshall speaker is a nice addition if you have guest coming or just chill out. The bathroom is spacious and complete with a bathtub, although I prefer it could be separated somehow because it's also occupied the shower room. ||Bedroom area has similar size to the standard room, but slightly different furnishings. The light switch can be a bit confusing and took me a while to adjust. The floor-to-ceiling window is nice but it can be a double-edge sword especially during hot summer or cold winter. ||Service from the associates are great as always. However, please upgrade your coffee machine at the restaurant, it's slow and the new location cause more congestion in my opinion.

By far the most spacious and comfortable hotel we stayed at during our time in Japan. The pillows and mattress firmness was perfect for us. It's incrediblely walkable area , restaurants down the street. We were able to access the underground shopping area from a few feet from the hotel entrance. The taxi pick up and bus stop is right outside the hotel, everything is so convenient. The only down side is the laundry options. They are reservations only did to their limited available machines.

Stayed at Aloft Hotel Osaka and had a pleasant experience overall. We booked a twin room for two — surprisingly spacious for Japan, with plenty of room for luggage. The room was clean, modern, and comfortable. The shower pressure could be stronger, but not a big issue. One great point — the hotel offers luggage delivery service, which was super convenient. I had my luggage sent ahead to Tokyo with no fuss. Staff at the reception were friendly and spoke English very well, which made the process smooth. Great location, solid amenities — would definitely consider staying again!

In general, the Aloft in Osaka was pretty decent. A couple of misses but, I won’t say it wasn’t a good place to stay overall. ||- this is supposed to be a hip and fun hotel. The lobby is busy and boisterous, and the rooms are non-traditional (think cork boards, funky designs, and twin beds that are head-to-head instead of side-by-side.) It kind of was like a super nice hostel. |- showers are good and water pressure is nice|- location is decent to the subway and Umeda train station (not Shin Osaka)||Overall, you could do worse. But for those looking for the traditional hotel experience, it might feel off.

Stayed at this hotel for 4 nights during my visit to Osaka, I have to say that room size was very nice. The positioning of bed in twin room made room look small in pictures but in reality they were spacious with smart division between luggage area washroom and bed room. We were 2 adults and a child, breakfast was nice and included standard western options. Location was 5 blocks away from what would’ve been ideal but still not bad as it’s a short walk from osaka station and can be done underground. Convenience store across the road.

Stayed at Aloft Osaka for 3 nights and loved it! The room was spacious, spotless, and had a cool urban vibe. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the large windows gave a great city view. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The location is perfect just a short walk to Osaka Station and close to great food spots. Breakfast buffet had a good variety and everything tasted fresh. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a modern hotel with great service and convenience.

We stayed in a family suite at Aloft Hotel Osaka. The room was very spacious, very clean, and looked recently renovated. There was a separate space for our child, which was convenient. The bedding was extremely comfortable.||On the downside, there was no closet and only limited space to hang clothes, which was inconvenient. Even on the higher floors, the noise from the street was noticeable and disturbing.||We took the breakfast option this time but found it disappointing — next time we would not take it. Fortunately, there are many good places to eat around the hotel.

Beds and bedding are great. Rooms are well laid out. AC is powerful. Amenities are good. Laundry service is available. Reception is helpful with suggesting and booking places for you. Location is close to some great coffee spots, train station and easily accessible by taxi.

Nice place to stay while in Osaka. Reasonable rate, clean, friendly, comes with 2 bottles of complimentary water each day (about ¥240). Also 20% off at the restaurant and two drink voucher. Its at the edge of Umeda train station. To the left of the building, you can go underground shopping (Dojima Chika center DOTICA) that extends all the way to main train terminal. So many restaurant and shops at DOTICA. Got the two free drinks (menu provided), got 20% off at the breakfast buffet (about ¥3,000) and I highly recommend. If you do not eat much, I suggest getting a plate of rice with nade to order japanese style omelet and side of curry. Put the omelet on top of the rice and split open. Runny yolk will be awesome on top. They also have fried rice as an option to steamed rice. 5 stars for location, service, cleanness and value.

First Marriott branded hotel in Osaka that I was able to book. The hotel is located on a main street and .3 miles from the JR rail - Osaka Station. You can take a taxi to Osaka Station for 500 yen, that is how close it is. I booked a two twin bed room and in the USA, they won't ask how many people but here in Osaka, if you booked for 1 guest and bring two - They will charge you additional for the extra person. There are 2 laundry machines in the entire hotel and you need to reserve a 2.5 hour slot (which books up fast) The cost for each machine is 500 yen which includes wash and dry. Overall, I enjoyed my stay here at Aloft as this hotel is so close to all the food and trains. Highly recommend.

Location near Osaka Station and Herbis Osaka Airport Limousine Bus Terminal with 10-15min walk. Staff welcomed us in upon arrival and very helpful with ease at check-in stayed 3 nights. Nice cool and hip atmosphere with XYZ bar and lounge are to sit and relax. Rooms very nice and comfortable bed I could probably sleep in longer. Very Clean! Laundry room available make sure to stop at the front desk for reservations only 2 washers/dryer combo no detergent needed our load took 2hrs and did not dry all the way. Fitness room nice and clean. Accommodations excellent! Did not have a chance to dine at the restaurant but they do have specials. Certainly recommend! will return again soon.

WARNING - (1) rooms are HOT due to a thermostat pre-set that does not go lower than 20° (68°F) and because rooms are small (+ shower steam), the room gets hot easily - over 75° which would usually not be an issue at home since I can open a window. Had to prop my door open the entire stay and I am usually not hot. Had multiple hotel people come by to tell me to close the door. (2) Don't bother with XYZ bar - short pours (for wine, Prosecco) and they need to teach their staff how to make drinks or read a book and follow instructions (3) breakfast coffee machine (Jura) needs more people to maintain- add milk, dump rinds, etc and need at least one more; perhaps just add a drop coffee station. Takes quite a long time in line to get a coffee. (4) Hotel agreed to make me a dinner reservation at a recommended restaurant (in the book of recommendations); I went to the restaurant and they had a private party but agreed to take us. Paid $100 USD for two quantity 10-piece Omakase + drink. Rushed out. Hotel never messaged me (vie messager or hotel voicemail to let me let me know the reservation could not be made.) I am a platinum Bonvoy and will stay somewhere else next time.

Stayed here for 5 night in April 2023. I've stayed in many hotels in other countries and sometimes do higher end, but after reading the Google reviews for this place, it seemed better rated than even the higher priced hotels. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The rooms were cleaned everyday (not so common after COVID times) and we were always asked if we needed anything else. Recommend the croissants for breakfast. My husband and I really enjoyed our stay, and it was in a great location

Aloft, affiliated with Marriott, is an American hotel chain. Having visited several Aloft locations in Japan and in America. I notice they all have their own uniqueness. I happen to visit since I had extended family stay here. Its modern style aligns with my taste, and I appreciated the inclusion of Japanese art in the lobby. Complimentary items added a nice touch, and the room featured two large beds along with a sofa and coffee table. In contrast to smaller Japanese hotel rooms that charge per person, this was a notable difference. If you're a solo traveler seeking more space, this hotel brand is excellent in Japan. Overall, I would consider visiting again.
