I stayed for two nights to attend a party held at this Hotel. They kindly helped me arrange a kimono to wear on the day and advised me on gifts for local hosts, which was greatly appreciated. The Room and spa were clean and comfortable, and the hospitality of the Hotel staff was excellent, making my stay in Osaka truly pleasant.

It’s a little away from Hankyu Umeda Station, but not far enough to be a concern. There are many restaurants nearby, making it a convenient location. The Hotel staff are polite and welcoming, and they see you off pleasantly as well. You can also enjoy the “Miracle Breakfast” at a relaxed pace. This is a Hotel I’d like to stay at again.

It was the best, dreamlike three days, warmly welcomed with a familiar smile. After exploring the area and returning to the Room, I was greeted again with another smile. Delicious meals and a luxurious, relaxing Room. Thanks to you, I feel motivated and ready to do my best until my next visit! I’ll be back—to hear “Welcome home” again.

The Room was thoroughly cleaned and very tidy. It was a twin Room, but quite compact—so much so that we had to move the table a little to make space when sitting on the sofa. Still, the sofa by the window was very comfortable, and we were able to relax while enjoying the view. I understand it can’t be helped due to the layout, but the toilet was also quite small, and I bumped my knees a few times when opening and closing the door. The washbasin area was also a bit dim. There are plenty of mirrors, but it’s not ideal for doing makeup, so I recommend using the powder room in the large public bath in the morning. On the other hand, the large public bath was excellent. When I first got in, the water felt quite lukewarm, but it gradually became properly warm and very relaxing. The view from both our Room and from the large public bath was wonderful, and I think you can probably enjoy great views from any Room. Breakfast was delicious as well, and overall we were very satisfied. This time we enjoyed the daytime scenery, so next time I’d like to stay again during Nakanoshima’s illumination season.

I stayed here to propose this time. The staff were fully supportive and kindly helped with everything—thank you! It made for the perfect proposal. I’ll be back.
