Dormy Inn Premium Namba ANNEX Natural Hot Spring

This is my second time staying here. First time was pretty good so I decided to repeat. Why? The location is amazing - a walking distance from Dotonbori and Shinsaibashi, several metro lines within 5-7 minutes on foot. It gets a bit rowdy at the evenings but hey, you can't really expect such location to be really tranquil. The usual "package" of Dormy Inn is what we usually value this hotel chain for - great public bath area, ice-pops at the night as well as yonaki soba. Actually compared to the previous time I visited it, they "fixed" the issue I had with this particular hotel - they didn't have luggage forwarding services in the past, but now they have it! Really great that they took the feedback (obviously not only mine) and improved.

Great location - close to Dotonbori and Shinsaibashi. Metro stations are 5-10 minutes walk. The hotel has an amazing public bath - very much in line with Dormy Inn usual "package": hot tub, cold tub, sauna and the "outside" tub. Helpful staff. Nicely-sized rooms with comfortable beds. We could store all our luggage in the hallway and not dance around it in the room itself like on most of the other hotels - great :)

This is our second Dormy Inn, and much like the first one we stayed at, we were very happy with everything. Since this is one of their "Premium" locations, the room was much bigger compared to our previous one- we could open 2 full-size luggage at a time - although of course it's still very compact by any other standard. Regardless, it was a cozy room with all hotel essentials, including the Dormy Inn pajamas that we love so much (saves you space from having to bring sleeping clothes). The facilities were as expected of a Dormy Inn - there are free washers and dryers that cost 100 yen for 20 minutes, there is a public bath which is pretty nice and well-maintained, free ramen and ice cream nightly, and free probiotic drinks daily. The location was pretty convenient, 5 minutes away from a subway station, 10 minutes away from another one in the opposite direction. It's a short-ish walk (maybe 10-15 minutes) from Dotonbori, Shinsaibashi, etc. Because the location was so great, we hardly took public transit during our whole stay. We just walked everywhere. There is a Lawson right downstairs. There is a supermarket nearby. There is a taxi stand right across. It's really wonderful and we would not hesitate to stay again!

We were very impressed by this hotel and the facilities. The location was perfect, right next to Dotonbori, was close to the station to get to Nara, and also close to Namba station to go directly to the airport. The room was spacious, very comfortable and spotlessly clean. It was serviced to a high standard each day with clean pyjamas left and drinking water replenished. What I really loved about this hotel was the onsen, sauna and cold pool. It was very beautiful and relaxing. They provided lots of complimentary items in the onsen area including hairbrushes, hair bands, and ice lollies, as well as a complimentary massage chair. Between 9.30pm and 11pm the hotel also provides free noodles, which we only had once but it was a nice extra. Staff are all really friendly and helpful. Very glad we booked this place.

Onsen in the heart if the city though the onsen is not in very high quality. Complimentary Ramen every evening for supper. Complimentary ice lolli after onsen. Size of the room is pretty good in Japan city. Very good value of money. Heart of the city.
