Fast and complimentary Wi-Fi and flexible workspaces will be pleasant for those travelling on business as well as guests who want to stay connected.

The hotel features an all-day dining venue that features an open kitchen concept and serves both a tempting buffet and à-la-carte options. The venue is also accessible from the street, attracting a mix of guests and Osaka locals. Guests can also meet, mingle or unwind at the Lobby Bar. The hotel’s other features will include a meeting room for both business and event use, a spacious fitness room, and a public bath that enables guests to indulge after a long day.

Located in the Honmachi area facing the main street, Chuo Dori central boulevard, Courtyard by Marriott Osaka Honmachi is situated within a short, one-minute walking distance from Sakaisuji Honmachi Station. The 17-storey hotel also offers convenient access to various tourist attractions in Osaka including Semba Center Building containing more than 1,000 wholesalers, retail and dining facilities located in and around Shinsaibashi and Nagahoribashi areas.
