Osaka hotels near Umeda Sky Building Floating Garden Observatory

Cons: Having stayed there for 7 nights (from 30th Oct to Nov 6th), the best way to sum up my experience would be the inconsistent level of customer service. Depending on who was attending to you, the service could range from being pretty good to somewhat nonchalant to downright rude. The most telling example of such inconsistency, would be this morning (6th Nov) during our hotel check out. At the 20th floor level reception, when checking out, one of the staff (an American gentleman from Long Island, US) was warm and friendly. He made a conscious effort to engage us in some small talk, enquiring about our stay and experience. Needless to say, we walked out of the 20th floor, with somewhat positive feelings. Unfortunately, at the 1st floor of the hotel lobby, that was when the extreme case of really poor service took place. My wife had sought the help of the concierge (from the 20th floor) earlier to book a taxi. By the time we went down, we were told that there was gonna be a slight delay and wait for another 15 minutes or so. My wife then proceeded to ask the doorman at the lobby if we could make it to the airport in time (if we waited out for another 15 minutes.) but his only reply to her was that it takes an hour to travel to the airport and we just have to wait for the taxi since we have requested for one. Given that our flight was at 11 am and it was close to 9 am, I made the decision to take one of the taxi, lining up in front of the hotel. To my surprise, the doorman actually physically blocked me, in short - he BODY BLOCKED me, from getting into the taxi. He raised his voice and kept saying that we had to wait for the taxi, disregarding the fact that we had to rush to the airport to catch our flight. I told him to charge me (on my credit card) for the taxi booking and went ahead with the taxi, which was in front of the hotel.

Pros: Most of the staff was very friendly and helpful. The bar near the lobby was absolutely great. Bartender was very genuinely kind and knowledgable.

Cons: lady at check-in office was very curt in her communication (smaller woman with glasses). The hotels restaurant does not offer 24 hour room service, and the hotel does not allow deliveries, so if you find yourself hungry past the kitchen hours, you are screwed. Concierge is off duty after 10pm, so again, any late-night info is non-existent. Location was very far from any nearby attractions, even any row of shops/restaurants.

Pros: We booked this hotel rather last minute as had issues with a different hotel and needed somewhere else. We are so glad we chose the Hilton as the room was lovely and also huge. We had a fantastic view from the 28th floor. Lots of plug sockets which was really handy and there were plenty of amenities such as nice toiletries, as well as slippers which could also be taken home. The location of the hotel is fantastic as you can take an elevator right down to the main station without even having to go outside! All staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful - we had a perfect stay.

Cons: The laundry service is incredibly expensive, although this is comparable to other similar hotels so wouldn’t consider this a big issue.
