Kitahama Hotel Deals
The Royal Park Canvas - Osaka Kitahama
Hotel is located right above the Kitahama metro station, so it's very convenient for travel down to Dotonburi and it's linked lines. My room was very clean and the soundproofing must be great, because I'm a light sleeper and I heard no noise on either night I stayed here.
