Lonely Planet review
Vaulted ceilings, tapestries and plush sofas are the grand introduction to the Hotel Hankyū International. Setting standards of European and Japanese luxury, this is the place to be pampered with sophistication while downtown Osaka bustles around you.
The sumptuousness of the lobby continues into the restaurants, the bar and the rooms. The hotel was designed by an American architect, so all facilities are Western scale, especially so in the marble bathrooms where the desire to luxuriate will overcome you. For those pursuing the Japanese experience, enjoy the beautiful night view of Osaka from your hinoki (cypress) wood tub and play a game of shōgi (Japanese chess) before you retire. English is spoken throughout the hotel and there is a gym and swimming pool available for an additional charge. The staff are renowned for their professional service. In-house alarm clocks have gained a reputation as the perfect memento of a perfect stay.
