"Rooms very super clean. We stayed in rm. 411 and the outdoor onsen was indescribably amazing. Staff was very friendly and helpful. They offer shuttle within the onsen area which is super helpful. The onsen experience was amazing. Tho’ a bit pricey, I will definitely stay here again as a treat. The Kaseiki dinner was also amazing. It was a lot of food. Almost like tapas as there are many small portions (11 courses in total). After dinner, another onsen. Out of this world experience!"

Top Nishinomiya Shell Museum Hotel Reviews

THE RISE OSAKA UNIVERSAL BAYSIDE

10/10 Excellent

"Very Clean room, spacious from my family of 5. They provided everything we needed, washer, utilities, and cookware. The staff was helpful and there was no confusion or miscommunication. They really need to advertise they give their guests a free Yakuta!. I wore it every night specially in the heat of August."

Oriental Hotel Universal City

8/10 Good

"Adequate accommodation. Breakfast was ok but nothing special. Room was ok. The real off putting thing was seeing a cockroach in the dining area which normally isn’t a good sign of hygiene."

HOTEL UNIVERSAL PORT
