Visit Osaka in Style
From top international brands and large business hotels to smart apartments and spacious suites, you’ll find an impressive range of three-star hotels in Osaka.

Where to Find a Three-Star Hotel in Osaka
Both of Osaka’s main hubs – Namba in the south and Umeda in the north – make a great base. Plus, the efficient transport network of trains, buses, subway and trams means you can zoom around to all the main attractions in no time. Or if you fancy a break from the hustle and bustle, why not take a sightseeing cruise on one of the city’s many waterways?
Stay in Japan’s Foodie Hotspot
Osaka’s greatest love is food, and the city isn’t shy about it. Some teasingly refer to Osakan’s food obsession as kuidaore, which literally means ‘eat ‘til you drop’. And if you’re heading out from your Osaka hotel in search of some top-notch dining, then there’ll be plenty of opportunity to treat yourself. Locals and visitors alike make a beeline for the restaurants of the Dotombori district near Namba station, where you can sample traditional dishes and street food. Or if you’re staying around Umeda, take a seat at an elegant restaurant in Osaka Station City.
Trace the City’s History at Osaka Castle
Discover the splendour and rich history of the city at its most symbolic site, Osaka Castle. It’s a pleasure to visit at any time of year, but in the spring when the cherry blossom is out in all its glory, it’s a real wonder. See the city’s skyline from 173 metres up at the Floating Garden Observatory at the Umeda Sky Building.
