I came on a business trip. From a business perspective, I didn't find anything untoward, and should say that I am quite surprised at the varied reviews on this hotel. Maybe it didn't have any romantic feel to it, but then, this is supposed to be a business hotel. And it did perform well as one. Needless to say, the... More

Stayed there for a business trip. It's a good business hotel but I would not recommend it for a romantic or family get away... Its location might not be perfect but they have a free shuttle that takes you to the JR station, twice per hour I believe. Rooms a nice and big but the bed was really not up... More

Westin Osaka great location and nice hotel, but food options not great for such a well known hotel, £12 for a single shot of whiskey. Recomend going through to the sky tower, numerous restarants at very cheap prices. Breakfast was one of the best that i have ever had, but also the most expensive.

Stayed here recently for two nights using Westin and Osaka as a base to explore Kyoto, Nara, Kobe, Himeji and Hiroshima from here as a base. I selected this hotel despite mixed reviews, based on the desire to use my point and loyalty to SPG. Unfortunately, my experience was at best mixed, and I was kicking myself for not picking... More

Although not as nice as the Westin Tokyo, the service was top notch and the breakfast buffet was fantastic! We stayed two nights in two different rooms, both room layouts were a little bit awkward and did not seem to fully utilize the space that they could have. The rooms themselves were quite nice but some of the furniture and... More

We have spend 3 nights in Osaka on our way to Kyoto for the Cherry Blossom seasons. The good about the hotel: - the Westin service - the location: 10mins from Osaka station - size of the room and the bathroom (nearly the size of our hotel room in Kyoto) - view from the room on Osaka. (ask for high... More

This hotel was likely spectacular when it was built, and it still has "good bones", i.e. large rooms, excellent attentive Japanese service, etc. However, as the debate on some of the postings rages, I agree that it falls just short of being Westin quality. While everything is perfectly functional, it is dated and given the price, does not provide the... More

Contrary to some of the reviews expressed here, this is a perfectly nice Westin with a good location in Osaka. Around the corner there are many shops, arcades and restaurants, and within walking distance one shall find all the most important sights in this city. The lobby has a spectacular mural depicting a meeting of the first Europeans with the... More

My husband and I chose to stay in Osaka and take the train to Kyoto during the cherry blossom season as hotel prices in Kyoto were sky high. We were thrilled to get a great deal at the Westin Osaka since we have stayed at the Westin before and really enjoyed the experience. Unfortunately, we quickly learned that this hotel... More
