MICE strengths

  • 900 m² Rose Room, up to 1,100 theater-style, divisible into three
  • Around eight banquet and meeting rooms, including Karin (445 m², up to 550 theater-style)
  • 303 rooms of at least 41 m², among the largest in Umeda
  • Shuttle to JR Osaka Station, and the Umeda Sky Building next door for an evening

Why choose it

For a convention or gala dinner of 300 to 1,000 people with on-site accommodation, or an incentive wanting spacious rooms and an evening at the neighbouring Umeda Sky Building.

Possible limits

Slightly removed from central Umeda (about 7 min on foot from the station, shuttle during the day only); 303 rooms, to be supplemented for a large convention; a 1993 building with a more classic style than recent openings.

Airport

Kansai (KIX): about 60 min by limousine bus to Osaka/Umeda (Herbis Osaka stop), then about 10 min on foot or by taxi. Itami: about 25–30 min by limousine bus to Osaka Station.

Station

About 7 min on foot from JR Osaka Station (north side) and about 9 min from the Umeda stations; free hotel shuttle from JR Osaka Station (west of the Sakurabashi exit), about every 30 min during the day.
