Osaka Garden Palace

Pros: We like that the room is bigger than normal Japanese hotels. The location is close to train station and there is a shuttle every 15 mins to the station.

Cons: The hotel is pretty old and the bathroom is tiny. The whole room looks very old.

Pros: Without the shuttle bus this would not be a very convenient place to stay. However, it runs every 15 mins, so is fine.

Pros: A fairly luxurious hotel for the price. A very convenient shuttle goes every few minutes between the hotel and Shin-Osaka station. Nice rooms.

Cons: Not exactly near the Shin-Osaka station... but the to and fro shuttle makes it very convenient...

Pros: Clean, beautiful decor , great stafff! Shuttle to train station was nice

Cons: Rooms were too small . Difficult to locate shuttle bus from the train station. Ended up spending about 900 yen each trip from the train on taxis because I couldn't find the shuttle.
