Luxury hotel”

I just loved it as soon as I arrived the hotel. The renovation and designs of the hotel were amazing. The staff was very friendly and patient. They would even lead you the way up to your room. The room itself was amazingly clean, quiet and spacious. The bathroom had both shower and bathtub. That was the last night of our trip, so we didn’t use any facilities inside the hotel. We didn’t eat there either. It’s not a cheap hotel but every penny is worth it. Just not sure if the location is good. Walked around after dinner around the river area. Apart from the river nothing much around.

Great business hotel with impeccable service”

Great service and luxurious rooms - plus stunning river views.

I stayed for one night only (business function), but still found this hotel experience remarkable. From the truly 'imperial' lobby to the very nicely furnished hotel rooms and the impeccable service: the Imperial Hotel Osaka lives up to it's grand name. Hotel rooms can be quite small in Japan (even in luxury hotels), but the Imperial Hotel does not only offer very spacious rooms but also extremely good-sized bathrooms. The decor is somewhat more on the 'plush' side (it's the Imperial Hotel, right!), but the rooms do offer all necessary technical gizmos at top notch standard (flat screen tv/dvd system, broadband internet connection, room control panel on the night stands and high tech reading lights). The beds are comfortable and the rooms are very clean. Try to stay in a room with river view: if you are on a higher floor, the view on the river is simply breathtaking. I also got to experience the lower lobby restaurant as well as in house catering services in one of the ball rooms overlooking the river. The food and service were impeccable. Due to an early flight out of Kansai airport, I had to order in room breakfast service (comes at a price!). The food came exactly the minute I had ordered it, and was of very high quality. Another plus is the friendliness of the staff (they go out of the way to explain the hotel room features to you, give recommendations for good restaurants and all are simply a delight to encounter. Imperial Hotel Osaka makes you feel welcome from check-in time to check-out. The only slight downside is the location of the Imperial Hotel: it is quite far from the center of the city, and connections to the Kansai airport are a bit tricky (you need to take a taxi to the central Osaka bus terminal, then take an airport bus for reaching the airport, which took me around 90 minutes in total). For a business stay, the Imperial Hotel is a delight to stay in and definitively one of the friendliest hotels I have encountered in Japan. If you like to

Fantastic Hotel! ”

We had a great time at Imperial Hotel Osaka. The accommodation is definitely 5-star with all the amenities. Location is not in the tourist area of the city, but it is in a serene and beautiful location right beside the river. One can very easily go to all the important places within the city, as the shuttle bus to Osaka station (where one can connect to all the places within and outside the city) leaves and returns every 10 minutes, the whole day until 9pm. The nearest subway station is also just 15mins walk from the hotel. The hotel staff are very polite and accommodating, and speaks English very well. The various hotel restaurants are well appointed and serve different kinds of food, although a bit pricey as expected of all 5-star hotels. There are some food outlets nearby for those who wish to eat outside, as well as 7-11 and Lawson groceries open 24 hours just right beside and across the hotel. All in all, we had a nice stay at Imperial Hotel and really enjoyed our vacation. We will definitely choose this hotel when we go back to Osaka.
