I've already stayed at Japan's first W Osaka for you to see if it's as fabulous as it sounds
During my trip to Kansai, Japan, I chose to stay at the long-awaited W Osaka
From a distance, I could already sense its minimalist style just by seeing its silhouette
This W Osaka is the first W in Japan and a masterpiece of the hotel designed by Tadao Ando. It's said to be the only black-themed W in the world, offering endless space for imagination~
.
Due to a flight delay, I checked in at dusk
At the height of the 19th floor, I was at the perfect level to take in the city's outline
Upon opening the door, the room was bathed in the sunset's afterglow, with a 270° view that maximized the visual experience at that moment, turning the world into a soft golden hue
.
After settling my luggage, I began to explore every detail. At W's bar, there was a full array of cocktail spirits and mixing equipment 🍸
This is a rare experience among the various hotels I've stayed at
The minibar and toiletries all featured the exclusive W OSAKA logo, adding a sense of ceremony
.
The design of the W OSAKA public area is completely different from most of the dull and outdated five-star hotel designs
The arched corridor with interlacing lights on the first floor is a must-visit photo spot
It's said that the lights change color with the seasons, and the recent pink-purple rainbow 🌈 has really touched my heart!
The elevator shines with pink lights in the cool darkness, giving off a unique sense of mystery and vitality beyond 20
The 3rd floor is a bar and lobby reception, which turns into a bar at night 🍷
The 4th floor has a swimming pool 🏊♂️, a gym 🏃♂️, and a SPA 💆♂️
Here, you can easily get a sense of W's design and atmosphere
.
Additionally, the service at W Osaka is satisfying. Whether it's the staff or the guests, the environment is relaxed and friendly, and you can clearly feel the rich and diverse global atmosphere
Coincidentally, it was my husband's birthday on the day we checked in, and when we returned to our room after dinner, we were greeted with balloons and a 'cake'
It was so cute~ In the morning, the birthday balloons looked extra adorable against the backdrop of the blue sky and white clouds outside the window
If you're visiting Kansai, the design and atmosphere of W Osaka are definitely worth the trip to experience!
