Frommer's Review

A white monolith soaring 32 stories aboveground (and with four stories of shopping and parking underground), the Nikko has a great location above a subway station and is right on Osaka's most fashionable boulevard, Midosuji Dori, making its lobby lounge a popular spot for locals meeting friends. In fact, location is mainly what you're paying for here: There is no health club, and guests are overwhelmingly business travelers. Rooms have a pleasing, clean modern design, with indirect lighting, focused bedside lights, LCD TVs, and air purification/ionization machines, and because there are no high buildings to obstruct views, city panoramas are a plus from most floors. Still, you'll pay more for rooms on higher floors and for more space. This is a good choice if you want to be in the midst of Osaka's shopping and nightlife.

Facilities:
5 restaurants; bar; 2 lounges; large underground shopping arcade; salon; room service (7am-midnight); in-room massage; same-day laundry/dry-cleaning service; nonsmoking rooms; executive-level rooms

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
