The Royal Park Canvas - Osaka Kitahama
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The Hotel has an excellent location. It is next door to the Metro for easy access. There are some great restaurants in the area and if you like Starbucks that is just down the road. Very clean 5-star hotel in my opinion. Room was spacious for Japan standards.
