Overview
An exciting place, where past, present, and future intersect.
The name of our hotel hearkens back to 1874.
The first Osaka Station was born in this very location in the midst of Japan’s rush toward modernization.
Rather than a traditional wooden structure, the Western-style station was built of red bricks,
a symbol of a new age and a landmark for its time that attracted the populace and connected travelers to the city.
Later, the station building was relocated, then repeatedly expanded and remodeled as Osaka itself developed and grew.
Though there were plans over the years to add a full-fledged hotel, due to the impact of World War II and other factors, those plans were never realized.
Bearing in mind this location’s historical significance, we have named our hotel THE OSAKA STATION HOTEL,
exemplifying our desire to honor memories of the railway and the aspirations of those who came before us,
and to continue our pursuit of a vision for what the hotel should be.
The hotel concept is "THE OSAKA TIME" to become a travel terminal
that connects travelers and the city,
so that your journey will begin a new story.
