Why stay at Imperial Hotel Osaka
The river at the foot
The hotel stands on the Okawa, the river that runs past the old Mint and the long riverside park.
The Imperial Floor
Its upper floors keep their own lounge and the hotel's best rooms, with the city spread beneath the windows.
A last night that is easy
Kansai Airport and Shin-Osaka are a straight run by car, for the flight home or the train onward.
the setting
A river city's lights, seen from the upper floors.
The hotel rises beside the Okawa River in Kita, where the water runs between tree-lined banks towards Nakanoshima. The riverside promenade passes the door, and the centre of Umeda and the canal streets of Dotonbori are a short drive.
At the door: the river walk, the water buses on the Okawa, and the old brick buildings of the Mint nearby.

the rooms
The rooms and suites
The rooms are classic and generous, in warm woods and cream silk, with windows over the river or the city. The Imperial Floor gathers the upper rooms and suites around a lounge of its own, and its corner suites carry a dining room beneath a sweep of glass.
On The Classic Cherry Blossom Tour of Japan every room is from the hotel's upper categories or a suite, never the entry room.
to unwind
The pool and the bath
The hotel keeps an indoor pool and fitness club, and the bathrooms are wide, in marble, with a deep tub. The onsen of the journey come earlier, at Kinosaki.
the table
Dining
The house carries its own restaurants and a bar; on our tours the farewell dinner is at a sushi counter in the city, and the private car returns you to the hotel for the night.
