TOKYO—Marriott Hotels and Miyako Hotels & Resorts recently opened the Osaka Marriott Miyako Hotel, the first property for the brand in Osaka and the fourth in Japan.
Marriott Hotels has partnered with Miyako Hotels & Resorts, a subsidiary of the Kintetsu Corporation, to create the new co-branded hotel in Kintetsu’s “Abeno Harukas,” a new 300-meter, mixed-use high-rise complex with 60 stories above ground and five stories underground. All 360 guestrooms and the hotel’s signature ZK restaurant are located on the top floors of the building, offering views of Osaka.
With a prime location in front of Osaka Abenobashi Station, the Osaka Marriott Miyako Hotel offers direct service to Kansai International Airport, in just 30 minutes, as well as providing convenient access to all other points in Osaka and the Kansai region.
Simon Cooper, Marriott International’s president and managing director for Asia Pacific, stated, “Marriott International’s model for growth around the world is to work with local partners who have the right local expertise, knowledge and skills, and who share our own values and culture. In Miyako Hotels & Resorts we have found an excellent partner to work with here in Japan and we are excited to open the first Marriott Hotels property in this very important city.”
Offering views of the city, the hotel’s 360 rooms are located on the 38th to 55th floors, and include six suites and 33 premium rooms. The executive floor rooms are served by a dedicated executive lounge with a 10-meter high ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows.
