Shinsaibashi is a district in the Chuo-ku ward of Osaka, Japan. It's famous for its shopping street, Shinsaibashi-suji Shopping Street.
One of the reasons we chose to stay here because of its location and accessibility to major train stations. From Osaka International Airport Terminal 1, we used the Nankai Rapi:t Kansai Airport Express to Namba and from Namba, we travelled to Nagahoribashi Station.
You can also book thru its website using this link.
