Everyone knows, Osaka is my favorite city in the world. Before Tokyo became the capital of Japan, Nara used to be the capital, which is close to Osaka. To me the west of Japan is the origin of Japanese culture and that´s why I feel so happy in Osaka and always return. While I´ve been working with Noku hotels in Kyoto, Singapore and Maldives already, I finally came to explore the Osaka property during the last days of my stay in Japan..
The newly refurbished 154-room hotel promises guests an authentic experience that relates to the unique dining culture of Osaka in its design style and friendly services.Centrally located, the hotel is minutes away from the Osaka Temmangu Shrine and the Temmabashi train stations as well as the Minamimorimachi subway station. In our neighborhood, there is the Osaka Castle and the Osaka Mint Bureau which is a popular venue for its famous Cherry Blossoms. Food enthusiasts can also look forward to quality dining at the Tenjinbashi Shopping Street– the longest shopping street in Japan and located within walking distance from Noku Osaka.

For breakfast, we offer a Japanese, Asian and Continental buffet spread.To unwind after a long day,guests can enjoy at our Tenma Café, cold frothy Japanese draft beer, coffee and tea and delicious cakes.
The area is really convenient, offering great connections to all location in Osaka. Its also easy to arrive when coming from other cities in japan, such as I did, as I was traveling from Wakayama to Osaka. My room offered a double bed and a simple but modern interior. I really enjoyed the photo wall, which is a unique detail of the hotel. All over the property one can explore photos and inspiring content. The staff speaks English and assisted me so well, when I was looking for a mochi shop, as I wanted to bring some delicious souvenirs back home. However, Osaka is known as the food capital of Japan and with a lively neighborhood one gets to explore the flavors of the world in Osaka.
The breakfast is offering all kind of cold and hot dishes, including juices and fresh foods like salad and juices. The restaurant area is also featuring a café, which is service hot beverages and cakes. It is a cozy area which is very popular for the guests.
The neighbourhood is named after the famous Osaka Tenmangu Shrine, and is home to Japan’s longest covered shopping street. The night comes alive with local authenticity in the quaint little bars and eateries of Ura-Tenma.
