Samokatus Hotels

The Marriott is often compared to a giant phallus.

Courtyard by Marriott Osaka Honmachi is a modern, clean hotel located in central Osaka with direct access to Sakaisuji-Honmachi subway station. The hotel offers comfortable accommodations with excellent amenities including hot spring baths (onsen), fitness center, and well-appointed rooms. While rooms are compact, they are clean and functional with comfortable beds. The location is ideal for exploring Osaka, within walking distance to Shinsaibashi and Osaka Castle. However, Marriott elite members should note that breakfast is not complimentary and there is no executive lounge. Some guests report noise from the nearby highway and find the rooms small for the price point.

Crystal House Suite Hotel&SPA is a modern, apartment-style 5-star hotel on the Lower Pond with consistently praised breakfasts, spacious lake-facing suites and a well-regarded spa. Reviewers highlight attentive staff and large balconies, while a small indoor pool and occasional event catering issues are the main drawbacks.

Good reviews from travellers for the five‑star Divan hotel with its own spa on Jordania Street. A double room costs from 160 lari.
