Hotel Sobial Osaka Dome — Hotel in Osaka

Great value hotel with excellent transport access!

This hotel is a bit way off Umeda or Namba but these places or anywhere else in Osaka can easily be accessed in a matter of minutes because the Taisho MRT station is just across it, making travel to any part of the city super convenient!

You’d be greeted by a nice covered patio at the front, perfect while waiting for your Uber ride if you ever needed one, or just to spend some quiet time. You can also use their lobby where you can find a drinking station (coffee, tea, anyone?)

Rooms are pretty spacious in Japan standards, though all amenities can be had at the reception. The toilet & bathroom were decent & clean albeit a bit cramped. Of course, they use those amazing Japanese toilets! It also has a public bathroom, but I fell the public bath in capsule hotels are much better. A microwave is available in each floor.

As mentioned, location is probably the best selling point of this hotel. Just across is the Taisho MRT, a few stops away is Umeda through the Osaka Loop Line, while Namba is a few minutes away with the Hanshin-Namba Line or the Nagahoritsurumi Ryokuchi Line. Bus stop is also very near. There are convenience stores, restaurants, and izakayas nearby.

I wish I was able to try their breakfast but I had to try breakfast recommendations elsewhere.

This is a strong 4/5 for me. Would stay here again if I’m in Osaka, it is highly recommended if you’re hitting Universal Studios Japan, Osaka Aquarium, and...

Staffs were very friendly and public bath room was spacious. Besides, this hotel was very clean and it was easy to access public transportation(just 1 minute on foot). However, some travellers were 'extremely' noisy and their noise made me get up at 2:00 a.m. They don't care others' room. Even some of their children shouted every 5 minutes on the hall. Also, one of them made noisy even in public bath, but their parents didn't take care of it. Also, they fully opened the entrance door for the public dress room in public bath room. I had to stop hair drying and close the entrance door myself although I did not open it because the room was very private for women only. Everything involved in these noisy people were unexpectedly stressful. This was my first time not to sleep well during my every single night there. This hotel should 100% perfectly control this kind of noisy travelers to keep their hotel level and made their rooms or their floors separated from other nationalities if needed. If not, it would not be easy to decide to stay there againnor recommend this...
