Hi , here with some idea for your advise

1. Choose the hotel which is near to OSAKA STATION / UMEDA STATION so that is easier for you to travel within OSAKA, KYOTO, NARA
2. If you have 2 days extra , plan a short trip to KOBE and HIMEJI too.
3. Most of the train station are operate until 11.50pm, but you don't need to worry as most of the shop operation hours is until 8pm only.

Things to do / Attractions :

OSAKA : Dotonbury , Umeda Sky Building , OSAKA castle
KYOTO : Fushimi inari, Kiyomizu dera , Arashiyama ( Bamboo forest , Otagi nenbutsugi ) , Nishiki Market
KOBE : Arima Onsen
HIMEJI : HIMEJI Castle ( Top 3 Castle in Japan )
NARA : NARA Park , Todaiji Temple

One of my favorite hotel is Grand-Fine / Fine-Garden , you may take a look on it.
I hope it would help you on the idea for your itinerary , i am traveling to Osaka on 29th October  wink.gif ,

Please do some homework. I wont give answer if he didnt do homework at first. Btw, You no need full day at Nara.
Good, still need to do some adjustment. Wait I reach home first. Btw, you no need spend full day at Nara.
Nov 03, Target Himeji first at Morning. Then Robeway to hill + Arima Onsen. Chinatown at night for dinner. Then head to kobe tower for night view.

Thanks for the advice. Will amend that. Thought of skip Nara and relax in Osaka instead.
