Very nice place!
I think it was an eco-friendly hotel (because you need to turn on the fridge when you use it) but we only stayed one night, so that in itself was probably not super eco-friendly. The staff were nice and helped give us directions. It’s pretty central to the famous touristy places. The room was super clean and spacious. It was very nice.

Small room medium price stay
The room is very very small. It is very difficult to fit luggage or clothes appropriately. There is virtually no space to walk around the two open sides of the bed.
Right next to subway, very convenient.

Comfortable and convenient.
Given that the name is "Smile Hotel," we were surprised that we were not greeted as such... but, perhaps the reception was not having a good day :) The room was very tight for 2 people + suitcases (12m2), but of course we knew that ahead of time.
Overall, we had a great stay. The common areas and the room was clean, fresh towels were offered daily and toiletries were available at any time. It is well situated across from the Yotsubashi station and a stone's throw from Shinsaibashi, which was extremely convenient. I would definitely recommend to stay here!

Location is good, Close to public transportation and convenient stores, Quiet neighbourhood. Provided good toiletries. They have no laundry facilities unlike what is listed. Cleanliness needs a lot of work. The room we have is very dusty and still have stain marks. It is also the same as the Smile Hotel we stayed at in Tokyo.

This is a landmark hotel with a history to tell. One is overawed by the illustrious guests she has entertained, including the much-loved Ike. It was Madame Chiang’s idea to build the hotel and she really got sense and taste. The traditional Chinese architecture is stunning and endearing. Though nowadays she has turned to a clientele of common mortals, the Grand Hotel never disappoints.

The woman at the front desk was welcoming and helpful. She helped us to send our luggage to the next city and also with other questions. The lady that cleaned the rooms in our floor was very kind and helpful even without speaking English. Our double room was very small and outdated but this was the only hotel in osaka that I have stayed.

Unfortunately booked a smoking room as that was all they had left in their availability and they were unable to move us to a non smoking room. Entirely our fault so nothing to fault the hotel but I would advise anyone thinking of booking a smoking room as a cheaper option not to as the smell is intense. There was also a loud constant vibrating noise so unsure if we were under the laundry room

Excellent location but hotel premises are rundown
Hotel location is excellent - connected to Yotsubashi subway station on the blue line via an elevator from levels B2 to 1, with a supermarket and McD’s across the road. You can walk via underground mall Crysta Nagahori to Shinsaibashi subway station on the red Midosuji Line as well. Free amenities. But premises are old, rundown and smell smoky. Bed and pillow are hard and not very comfortable. Service was brusque but efficient enough, though most of the staff speak limited English. No daily housekeeping (every 3 nights) but fresh towels every day. We got the deluxe room so there was plenty of space and a city view.
