I have stayed at this hotel for 8 days in this trip. Everything is great, the hotel room is spacious(really rare to find this kind of space in a Japan hotel), clean, daily necessities are all supplied within the room, the TV is a smartTV which you can browse YouTube or sign in to your account on Netflix/other platform TV to enjoy your time at night. The location is excellent as well, sitting in the middle of Namba and Shinsaibashi, 3mins walk to nearest Namba famous malls and 5mins walk to Shinsaibashi shopping street and restaurants area. Also need to note that B1 floor of the hotel links directly to the local metro station and it’s just 2mins walk to the nearest airport railway station, this really matters to me as my travelling plan is quite packed, and the convenience helps so much. Moreover, this hotel is managed under a Japan museum group, which it merges artistic element into the hotel, like it has displayed art decor all within the hotel, like the ground lobby or the elevator lobby at each floor, it even holds art showcase event at its function hall from time to time. I have visited Japan 9times in total, inc Tokyo, Osaka and Okinnawa, this hotel doubtlessly was the best experience for me regarding Japan hotel stay. I definitely would recommend this hotel to everyone who is reading this as well as my friends if you are staying at Osaka. I would also choose this hotel again next time I visit Osaka again. This hotel is also a hot pick for travelors as it is famous for its special castle outlook and high quality of stay, so you would definitely have to book this hotel at least 1month+ before your destined travel time.

Read moreWe stayed for three nights, in a premium room on the 19th floor, with breakfasts. We were most satisfied with this hotel. It only opened in 2019, based on the facade of the old Osaka Kabuki Theatre, with a modern tower above, but repeating the theatre’s architectural features. It is easily found about 3 minutes walk from the front entrance of Namba Nankai station. There is also a covered route to the hotel’s basement, but it is more easily found the first time from the hotel itself. Our room itself was spacious, with two oversize single beds, a chaise longue, and a comfortable chair. There was a compact, but adequate, work desk, a table, lots of sideboards for the large TV, refrigerator, an air freshener unit, closets and luggage space. There were more than adequate drawers and places to hang coats, etc. The refrigerator was filled with green tea, water, energy drinks and beer, all of them free. The bathroom was large, with the toilet and sink area separated by a glass partition from the shower and soaking tub. There was a full range of cleaning and cosmetic products. A curious feature is that shutters in the bathroom allow one to look out across the room and through the window while bathing. The only things lacking were towel bars for wet towels in the bathroom, and iron and ironing board.|Breakfast was a delightful buffet, with a full range of Japanese and western choices. There were a number of islands of features such as salads, baked goods, sweets and chefs special dishes. Some items changed each day. A popular dish was a single egg benedict on a thin piece of toast.|We would definitely stay here again if...
