Staying at Osaka Station Hotel
A Special Feel from the Very Entrance…
When I visited Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai, I stayed at Osaka Station Hotel. For some reason, my camera was set to Vivid mode at the time, so the colors in all the photos are quite intense. Please forgive that.
Osaka Station Hotel occupies the upper floors of KITTE Osaka, right in front of Osaka Station.
The moment I stepped in from KITTE, it felt like I had entered a completely different world.
The interior really conveyed how serious the hotel was about creating the experience.
The lobby, with its great views, had an exceptionally calm atmosphere. I liked that it wasn’t just luxurious—it also had playful touches here and there.
The projected clock display was so fascinating I felt like I could have watched it forever.
A Refined Room
The room was fairly spacious, and I really liked the interior design.
This lighting was charming too.
The bathroom area was the kind you often see in luxury hotels these days, where everything can be opened up.
The bath was spacious and came with a washing area, and the tub itself was large and comfortable.
The toilet had a rounded design. Maybe it was a Neorest?
And the night view from the room was absolutely beautiful.
Morning at Osaka Station Hotel
Waking Up to a Wonderful View
The morning view from the room was simply magnificent.
That said, I was heading to the Expo again that day, so I couldn’t exactly take it easy, haha.
A Breakfast Almost Too Luxurious
For breakfast, I went with the hotel’s breakfast buffet.
The venue was long from side to side, and the seating extended beyond the restaurant itself, so if you ended up at one of the far seats, it looked like getting food would be a bit of a trek.
The quality of the buffet was among the very best of any hotel I’ve stayed at.
I’m about to head to the Expo, and yet here I am eating sushi first thing in the morning!!
And here is my pastry check-in photo, though I didn’t manage to photograph it very well.
Colorful desserts,
and freshly made pink Mont Blanc.
And to top it all off, the lavish fruit!
The melons being cut one after another were almost too good. They were properly high-end melons too, ripened to just the right point.
I found myself wondering how they manage to serve this much melon every day, all in such great condition. Honestly, breakfast might have been fine with almost nothing but melon, lol.
So, I barely spent any time at the hotel, which made it feel a little wasteful, but I was off once again to the Expo grounds…
