8/10 Good
"The lobby was spectacular and the elevator super cool. Breakfast was very good. Lots of different options. The view was really nice looking over the harbour. It’s a bit far from any shops or restaurants but the park land around the hotel is lovely. The only thing I really didn’t like was the cruise ships that dock alongside. The engines run all night, sometimes the music is loud and obnoxious although it didn’t go late. But it meant I couldn’t sit on the lovely balcony. But if you don’t mind being a bit far out from the centre it’s probably quieter than the main area of the city."

"Fabulous stay and highly recommend - Make sure to buy the breakfast buffet - it is well stocked with western and Japanese food,. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are very clean. Our floor (14th) had a water station by the elevator so it was very convenient to refill our bottles. The Bloom Cafe offers free soda and coffee (lattes and cappuccinos too) as well as beer and wine for Y500 per glass (buy the tokens at the front desk). The hotel is conveniently located near the Hommachi train station - make sure to walk to the Senba Center and Shinsaibashi for great shopping. The second hand market for handbags is amazing! The area is super safe and very walkable with several small eateries nearby. There is also a supermarket a block away so very convenient. Overall, we highly recommend this hotel."
