I decided to stay at “The Royal Park Hotel Iconic Osaka Midosuji,” because it is a new hotel that just opened in March 2020, and I had a gift certificate that I could use at the hotel. There are hotels of the same group in Kitahama, but there is a casual feeling, and this hotel felt more luxurious.

From Yodoyabashi subway, take Midosuji to the south and the hotel is inside the Obic Midosuji Building.

What is the Standard Room Comfort Double like?
Guest room entrance door.
There was a bathroom and open closet on the right and a full length mirror on the left.
Full length mirror
The room was only 21 square meters wide and is the smallest room, but it was big enough for a business stay.
The bed was a Simmons bed with a width of 140 cm and which was comfortable to sleep on. The style of the bed was very high class.
There were two types of pillows, a hard type and a soft type.
Pajamas
There was a table next to the bed with an alarm, TV remote, tissue, foldable stand mirror and a telephone.
Light switch, outlet and USB port.
Trash can.
TV across the bed.
If you are a member of a video distribution service such as Hulu or Netflix, you can log in to watch TV, and you can watch and search YouTube even if you are not a member. Also, you can project your smartphone on the screen by using chrome cast. I also found it useful because I could check the laundry usage status on the TV.
Air cleaner
Table and chairs.
A big window.
Since my room was facing west, I could see the Kyocera Dome (former Osaka Dome) on the left side. The right side is lined with skyscrapers near Higobashi subway station, the right side of the twin tower shown on the right of the photo is the festival hall, which is also the recording venue for “Newlyweds Welcome.” and the left side is the Conrad Hotel.
The night view was wonderful, and there were no building that blocks the view from the 23rd floor, so I could see the night view over a wide area. On the east side, you can see Midosuji, on the north side you can see Umeda and Kitashinchi, and on the south side you can see Harukas and Tsutenkaku.

There was also a bar lounge called “The Bar” on the 15th floor. It is used as a cafe during the day and a bar at night. The afternoon tea set was so good that I’d like to try it again.

Hotel Surroundings
The area around Yodoyabashi Station is a financial district, and major companies such as Mitsubishi UFJ Bank Osaka Branch, Mizuho Bank Osaka Branch, Nihon Life Headquarters, Nomura Securities Osaka Branch, Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance Osaka Branch are densely located. Every building has a history and presence, so I thought it would be fun to walk around the city. The Odona building, which is directly connected to Exit 10 of Yodoyabashi Station, is a shopping center and also has a restaurant area. Lunch is recommended because it is expensive at night. If you cross Yodoyabashi with a river, you will also find the Osaka City Hall and the Bank of Japan Osaka Branch Old Building, which is a beautiful historic building. In winter, the entire area is illuminated, so it’s highly recommended. You can reach Shinsaibashi by walking one station south of the hotel. It was a convenient place to go north and south.
There is Seven-Eleven immediately after exiting the hotel west entrance.
If you enter from the Midosuji side entrance you will find “Doutor” on your right.

Staff and Guests
The staff were friendly and very professional.
Looking at the lights in the room at night from the outside, it seemed that there were still few guests, but once the demand from tourists and business travelers recovered, I felt that it would become more fashionable in the future. I saw business guests, couples and friends staying.

Access
The subway Yodoyabashi and Honmachi Station are easily accessible, and it is within 5 minutes on foot. Subway Yodoyabashi Exit 12 is the closest, but since it is a staircase, it is easy for heavy luggage to get to the ground from the Odona Building at Exit 10 by elevator or escalator. There is also a supermarket KOHYO at exit 12, so you don’t have to worry about a little shopping. There are many cafes in Midosuji, and I saw most of the famous chain stores. The Midosuji Subway Line is also the busiest line in Osaka when commuting, so you should avoid riding during commuting hours.
There is a supermarket “KOHYO” in the immediate vicinity of Yodoyabashi Exit 12.

Summary
The room did not have enough outlets which was a little inconvenient. I could see the view of Osaka from the window and the night view was wonderful. A humidified air purifier was also provided, and it was comfortable. For breakfast, there were many kinds of handmade bread (120 yen) at Super KOHYO, which was 100 yen at night, so I bought it and had it in my room. After 20:00, the side dish was half the price. I used the restaurant coupon for lunch and I think it was a great deal. The 24th and 25th floors are executive rooms where you can have a meal at the lounge, and you will find coffee machines, gowns, toiletries, basic cosmetics for women, and quality body towels in the room. I had a very satisfying stay at “The Royal Park Hotel.”
