Lord Kusunoki: I was curious about Masashige Kusunoki, so I stayed at this inn when I went sightseeing. It's a comfortable place to sleep, but the fact that there's only one toilet and a family bath is a bit of a problem. However, there is a public bath nearby and meals that come with rice are cheaper.

In front of the gate of Shijo Nawate Shrine, there is an Iseya shop with a strong presence that gives you a sense of history. I'm really impressed by the attentive service and delicious dishes made with Osaka ingredients.Room wear, face towel, toothbrush, toiletries, mirror and hair dryer in the room)Baths are family baths and are shared in shifts. (Shampoo, conditioner, body soap included)The WiFi in the room was very strong and helpful.I ordered a beer and when I came back from the bath, it was cold in the fridge... Thank you so much.You can arrange Osaka ingredients in this way and make them look like this! I enjoyed tasting each one one by one. And everything is delicious.The location is on a slightly higher hill, so the sunset view is also great!It's also a good idea to take a walk to the shrine early in the morning.It's run by a young couple (?), which gives me a very good impression.This is an inn that you'll want to come back to again and again! !(Added in January 2024)

Staying with my father is a very nice B&B.The staff service is very warm and attentive.Although the room is a bit old, it is neatly arranged. The toilet has been renovated and is clean and bright.The meals in the attached restaurant are delicious for breakfast and dinner.It’s about a 15-minute walk from the station and it’s uphill. If you’re traveling with elders or it’s raining, it’s recommended to take a taxi.

I had a job in Shijonawate and had the opportunity to stay for just one night, so I stayed for one night with two meals included.For dinner, we had stew, salad, steak, and dessert. The ingredients for the dishes were all made with Osaka ingredients, and the meat and even the dressing were all made with Osaka ingredients. The meat was also tender and very delicious.As for drinks, it came with one drink, so I ordered a Minoh beer first and an additional bottle of red wine (also from Osaka). I was very grateful that the wine I couldn't drink at dinner was brought to my room after the meal so I could drink it in my room.For breakfast, we were provided with many dishes such as steamed dishes made with carefully selected ingredients (beef, shrimp, vegetables), hot spring eggs, pickles, desserts, etc. After eating two bowls of rice, I was full from the morning.Since I had some time before my departure, I visited Shijonawate Shrine, which is near my hotel (2-3 minutes away).This time, I was driving, so there was no problem, but it seems like it's a long way from the station, so I need to be careful, and the inn is just uphill from the station.I would like to use it again when I stay in this area.

A quiet and cozy inn run by a husband and wife team. I was very satisfied with everything, from the hospitable customer service to the dinner and breakfast made with local ingredients from Osaka. The prices are so reasonable that I worry unnecessarily about whether or not I will be able to make a profit. I never thought there was such a wonderful inn near Osaka!This is an inn that I definitely want to stay in if I go to Osaka again.

This is an inn that my family has used many times. The food is really delicious, and the main reason I stay here is always for the food.As for the food, as other people have said, it's so delicious that you'll want to exclaim, "It's so delicious!" My family loves the dinner we have here, but we also really like the breakfast. Everything is delicious and impressive.When I told a friend from far away that he should stay here when he came to Osaka, he smiled and said that he was glad he didn't have to stay at a business hotel in Osaka and that he was glad he was able to eat here.I will visit you again for dinner.
