Beverly, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent hotel for convenience and room size, and the staff were very helpful - especially with getting to the Osaka Expo. As an executive for a Japanese / U.S. company whose HQ is in Tokyo, this was a wonderful escape.
Brandon, 3-night trip

Located right on city walk at Unversal Studios. Loved the location. Train station is literally a short walk away. Property is beautiful
Roger, 4-night trip

Conveniently located and very clean. Buffett breakfast is amazing!!!
Amanda, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a great hotel if you are going to Universal Studios Park, one entrance is right on the Universal City Walk and the subway and Starbucks. You can take the subway or get a taxi into downtown Osaka, about 20-30 minutes.
Marta, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property and staff were great. Everyone was very nice and helpful. We liked the proximity to Universal Studios and train station (about two minutes away).
Martin, 8-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My family loved staying at this hotel. Location was perfect. The park and City Walk was accessible through the hotel's back entrance. Also staff was friendly and helpful upon our arrival. They helped us check in early for a nominal fee--which I really appreciated after a long day of travel.
RACHEL, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent for a theme-park hotel and perfectly designed for families. Clean and spacious rooms with lovely views. Rooms, facilities and staff were all excellent. Downside: Stick to the standard buffet breakfast downstairs, as the "premium" buffet was really not worth it, in terms of variety and quality. We did not try the buffet dinner because of this impression from breakfast.
Mihir, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to approach to Universal Studio Japan! Very walkable and accessible location to many shops in Citywalk. But very quiet inside. Place was pretty specious for two kids two adults family.
Cholong, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Love love love this hotel! Everything was great. Located directly next to USJ (within 400ft) and even closer to a train station. The only downside is that you do have to take the train to get into the mix of the city. You cannot just walk out the hotel as it is located in the port next to USJ. But the train ride to a busy area is only about 3 min. Lovely stay, can’t wait to go again!
Amanda, 8-night trip

8/10 Very good

Convenient to Universal Studios, dining options at City Walk and Universal City Station. Rooms were very clean and tidy, however only 4 single beds provided for a family of 5, when booked for 5.

Park Sam, 1-night trip

Nice hotel if visit the Universal Park. Exactly as you see it in the pictures. It has a good overview of the park and the previous mall. They gave us a voucher for a drink in the restaurant and we had mash mallow with chocolate and a drink in a very rainy evening. They have also lockers to store your backpacks before the checking and the let our luggage directly in the room.
Nerea, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

it was noisy with foot steps over night. air conditioning did not work right away. yet the room was spacious and the tab filled up so quick. also amenities were useful.
Miho, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

location and amenities were great. The lobby front desk and street level entrance/exit being on different floors were a little inconvenient when checking out. Wish the chairs in the rooms had backs to lean against.
jal usa, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Jr station is just right there so very convenient to get around. Only bad thing to say was it is jr rail so we needed the metro pass to get access to the other osaka lines but nevertheless it was still convenient. Also very cool is its close to the harbor for captain line for a 10 min ferry ride across the river to the aquarium and the tempozan market
