Very convenient location and accessible to the heart of the city.”

If you know how to commute around the city (or if you know how to navigate around using an app), this is the place for you. Very nice facilities like the onsen, and the rooms have nice views. However, my request for adjacent rooms was not fulfilled, and I wasn’t allowed to let any guests in my room, but I guess these are minor details.

Room was extremely small in comparison to what you see in the photo, felt deceived. It just allows u to walk in one way into the room. Bed and pillow quality is bad, gave us bad body aches. Bed was small as they call it “small double bed”. Front desk service is good. We booked the room with breakfast, food served was good. Overall it was a below average stay.

A hotel close to Osaka Station”

the location, the cleanliness and the price

I stayed in the APA Hotel Osaka-Higobashi-Ekimae for 8 days, and generally everything about it was fine. It's very easy to find the hotel when coming by Yodobashi subway line, and it's also close to the Osaka station and few others. There is also a post office nearby which works on the weekends, and it was very convenient for me. Near the Osaka station you can also find big shopping molls like Grand Front Osaka, besides shopping I visited the Osaka Theatre Drama City nearby. From Osaka/Umeda station you can also come to Shin-Osaka, where the famous shinkansen trains start from. So the location is really great. The food in the restaurant is quite good, there are Japanese and European dishes course to choose from. I'm vegan, so it was nice for me to have there potatoes, salads, fruits and miso soup and rice for my breakfast. The room is really small and it gets very hot before you come back and turn on the cooling system. There is also a large onsen bath on the 2nd floor and a laundry machine which you can use by coins (you don't have to buy a detergent for it), so it's a very nice option for a long stay.

Value for money”

I think in the Umeda area of Osaka, it is APA Hotel Higobashi Ekimae that wins overall. From Herbis Osaka you can actually have pleasant walk (if you don't have any luggage). For a party of 3, best to take a cab since it will cost you the same if you total train expenses for 3 persons. To the right of the building are a vendo fast food place, a Tsutaya cd/DVD etc shop and ( a further right at the bridge) Life Supermarket with a small department store where you can find good buys and it's open till 2am. You can cap that day with a hot bath in their onsen. APA HOTEL is truly great

Perfect location, Twin room was better, Helpful staff”

Firstly we were using train from airport to hotel and the hotel entrance is in the front of Exit 3 Higobashi station (after carrying heavy luggages for 6 days, through hundreds of staircase it was such a relief to see hotel entrance right next after those stairs) We can buy food near hotel. One coffee shop is perfect for breakfast next to the hotel entrance and convenient store is simply just across the road. We also got help for few things we left because of moving to twin bedroom from the staff and keep our belonging safe. Bathroom amenities are excellent, also housekeeping very friendly when we need more times to leave before they start doing their job. Last but not least, they give us a lot of information regarding transportations whether its train to other town and also taxi (with approximately taxi rate from hotel to airport). I hope to stay in APA Hotel Osaka-Higobashi in the future. ありがとうございました

APA Hotel Osaka Higobashi-Ekimae was a great choice of hotel for my stay in Osaka. The room was clean and while small by US standards, it was just big enough for one person. The staff were kind and very helpful whenever I had questions or needed help.

Value for money and good location”

Location, onsen public bath, price

Apa Hotel was such a blessing because it turned out to be 5 minutes away from the venue of my meeting. From the airport bus drop off, you can walk to the hotel which is around 15 mins. It's great to walk unless it's summer. Otherwise, it's a 5 minute train ride. Just take the street elevator on the Northeast side with the sign NISHI UMEDA. Higobashi station is just the next station. When you arrive at the Higobashi station, look for the exit that takes you to Apa Hotel. CAUTION: in this exit, there are no elevators and no escalators. So, luggage can be a bit of a challenge. Still, when you get out of the exit, the hotel is right in front of you. TIP: there's a LIFE Supermarket nearby southward at the corner of the bridge road. Onsen is relaxing

Good japanese business hotel”

Location, service

APA Hotel Osaka is the typical japanese business hotel, with small but clean and fully equipped rooms. A spa for the guests is available on the 2n floor. It is located next to Higobashi M station, exit 3. Hotel does not provide wireless connections in the room. But a (weak) wifi spot is available in the lobby. Personell speak little English, but is very friendly and willing to help.

Location, comfort, directly opposite a 7 Eleven and right next to exit of Higobashi subway station

I specifically chose this hotel because of its proximity to the subway line. The price was also very reasonable for a hotel which was so centrally-located. It's just a 10 minute walk to JR Osaka and Herbis, which is where the airport bus terminal is. The exit of Higobashi subway station is just outside the entrance of the hotel, and makes it very easy to travel to anywhere in Osaka. There is also a 7 Eleven directly opposite if you need to get anything urgently. I did not spend much time in the hotel as I was always out and about, but it was very clean and the bed was comfortable. Also it was a very clean room and it was a pleasure to stay at this hotel.

Convenient location”

Convenient just 1 station from Umeda, hotel room is clean and tidy

I booked this hotel just 1 week before my trip to Osaka and Kyoto in mid November, almost all other hotels in tourist spots were fully booked...Luckily APA Hotel Higobashi was still available and the location was quite near to Umeda (just 1 station from West Umeda Station) where you can go shopping, have food and interchange for JR or Subway. Personally, I more prefer to live in Shinsaibashi or Namba because of convenience, but Higobashi is still a good choice for you.

APA Osaka Higobashi Ekimae”

Good value for the money. Centrally located near city hall in Osaka. Subway entrance right by the hotel (Yotsobushi line, Higobashi station exit 3). Be aware that rooms are minuscule compared to western hotels. Additionally, the beds are very stiff and the pillows are substandard in my personal opinion. I'd recommend bringing your own pillow or purchasing a cheap pillow in Osaka if you are staying more than 2-3 nights. Overall a very clean and conveniently located hotel.
