THE RISE OSAKA UNIVERSAL BAYSIDE

8/10 Good

"The hotel was very large, clean, and had wonderful amenities. I wish they had a larger selection for breakfast. They only had 2 pre-set options, no extras, no à la carte, no substitutions. Otherwise great stay!"

Candeo Hotels Kobe Torroad

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing!"

The Singulari Hotel & Skyspa at Universal Studios Japan

10/10 Excellent

"While the room wasn’t incredibly spacious, the space had been used well in terms of design and furniture— my personal taste is not loving a shower-over-bath for comfort (particularly after a long day walking with sore legs) however that’s not a deal breaker for me. Friendly staff, and great amenities as well as an awesome location both for public transport access and access to universal studios"
