Located in the heart of Osaka, the six hotels of the Hotel Chūo Group provide convenient access to all of Osaka’s major attractions, including Namba (the Minami dining and entertainment district), Umeda, Universal Studios Japan, the Osaka Aquarium, and Osaka Castle.All of our hotels are less than an hour from Kansai International Airport by bus or train.They can be accessed directly without transferring from the airport via both the JR and Nankai lines.
Due to both our reasonable rates and relaxed, hostel-style atmosphere, the Chūo Hotel Group has become extremely popular with backpackers visiting Osaka and numerous articles about our hotels have appeared in newspapers and magazines in Japan and abroad.Last year alone, 20,000 foreign customers stayed at the five hotels in our group(a total of 47,389 nightly stays).
Recognizing that many foreign backpackers visit Japan on a limited budget, we at the Chūo Hotel Group strive to provide those backpackers wit a comfortable and enjoyable stay in Japan.
