"The Westin Osaka" is conveniently located a 7-minute walk from Osaka Station. "Westin" is one of the top luxury brands in six places in Japan such as Tokyo, among which Osaka is the first high-class hotel in Japan that opened in 1993, with spacious rooms. I was able to stay in a calm environment surrounded by nature while enjoying the nice view of Osaka.

Summary
I had a nice stay at this hotel. Because it is a hotel that has been around for more than 25 years, there are places that are a little old, but it is cleaned well and comfortable stay at. It takes about 10 minutes on foot from Osaka station and it is a hotel that is recommended to those who are looking to stay at a hotel that is located in a quiet area.
