If you can only choose one hotel in Osaka, W Osaka is the one to pick.

This unique hotel has a minimalist 27-story exterior, a glamorous interior, and neon signs that create a perfectly harmonious and distinctive atmosphere. It is also famous for being designed by Osaka architect Tadao Ando. Let's take a closer look at W Osaka.

 

A Collaboration Between Tadao Ando and Concrete

W Osaka's exterior was designed by architect Tadao Ando, while the interior design was handled by Concrete, an Amsterdam-based studio. With the motif of "True Osaka," they aimed to create a hotel that expresses the city's vibrant energy, and the result is W Osaka.

 

Cozy and Soulful Rooms

The rooms at W Osaka are all about being cozy and soulful. There are 337 guest rooms and 7 different room types, and all rooms offer beautiful views of Osaka, scientifically designed furniture arrangements, and accent neon lighting.

The "Extreme WOW Penthouse Suite" on the top floor of the hotel boasts a special atmosphere with a sun garden concept, a DJ booth, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a uniquely structured bathtub.

 

A Gourmet's Paradise

W Osaka also offers a variety of top-class cuisine. At Oh.lala… restaurant, you can enjoy dishes from around the world, while at Sushi UKIYO, you can taste the finest sushi.

The most popular restaurant is MYDO, which serves local soul food against a backdrop of illustrations by 82-year-old Osaka artist Seitaro Kuroda. On the 4th floor, there is the WET BAR, where you can enjoy original cocktails made by mixologists in an ocean-themed bar.

 

Unique Indoor Pool

The indoor pool, WET Deck, is a beautifully lit space. Although the pool itself is not large, there are sofa-type relaxation spaces by the poolside, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a swim.
