Bottom Line
There are 314 guest rooms in this modern, three-pearl property set in the Namba District of the city. It’s a popular location with tourists, as there are so many attractions within a short walk as well as plenty of nightlife, culture, and shopping. Rooms are sharp and simple, and a decent size, with mini-fridges, air-conditioning, and free Wi-Fi. There’s a good bar and restaurant which serves Italian cuisine with a Japanese twist on-site, but otherwise features are slim. Car parking and a computer station are also available to guests. Those wanting somewhere with more business facilities could check out the three-pearl Hotel Granvia Osaka as an alternative which is near the financial district and has extensive meeting space plus multiple restaurants and bars.

Scene
A busy, modern hotel in the heart of Osaka’s action
Built in 2008, the hotel is a modern structure spread across 12 stories -- in fact, it's one of the more distinctive structures in the area, with its gridded metal facade. Inside, things are a bit more generic, but modern and pleasant. The lobby is a large, bright space with a mix of polished tile and dark wood flooring. There are large arrangements of fresh flowers, a stand of tourist information leaflets, and an entrance to the convenience store next door. Contemporary square sofas along the wall give everyone a place to sit, though everything about this hotel seems to be made for those on the go, rather than travelers looking to kick back in the relaxation. Indeed, the bustling Namba district location means that the property has a busy, lively atmosphere. It can also be fairly noisy at night time, with street and traffic noise filtering in to the building. The hotel attracts both international and Japanese travelers who want to be in the center of the action. Guests are mainly tourists, but some business guests choose to stay here as well.
