Experience of the stay
This time, we stayed at 'OMO7 Osaka by Hoshino Resorts' through HafH.
This hotel has always ranked high in HafH and had garnered many positive reviews for families traveling with children.
We stayed here for our visit to USJ!
First, the access is just right in front of the station. From the JR Shin-Imamiya station platform, we could see the cute, glittering decorations.
It looked close from the platform, but it can be tricky if you take the wrong exit.
If you exit right from the 'North' exit of Nankai Shin-Imamiya station, you'll be almost in front of the hotel.
1. Nankai Electric Railway 'Shin-Imamiya' station North exit → almost right in front
2. JR 'Shin-Imamiya' station East exit is to the left right in front
Since there are JR lines and Nankai lines at Shin-Imamiya station, I was a bit confused as it was my first time. I recommend checking the station map once and confirming the location of the elevator!
At the hotel entrance, we were greeted by a golden Billiken statue. We took the elevator up and checked in on the second floor.
I stayed with my elementary school child, and the bed was really spacious. Although my child's sleeping position isn't the best, I was relieved knowing there were walls on both sides, so I could relax.
Check-in and check-out were automated, but since identity verification was needed, we had to deal with the friendly counter. Starting from 19:30, there's an event called 'Pika Pika Night' where we enjoyed free takoyaki and drinks, along with free lantern rentals.
It ran until 22:00, and it was joyful with children holding colorful lanterns.
In the morning, there were bubbles available for use freely, and we had fun until check-out time.
Instead of an all-you-can-eat, I had a salad set.
It's a rich experience to arrive at Universal in less than 30 minutes, so I would love to use this hotel again for my next stay at Universal.
The popular OMO7 in the Osaka area is highly recommended for families traveling with children.
Make sure to try staying here!
Experiences during the trip
We went to Universal Studios Japan.
It was a bit rainy, but the temperature was high and very comfortable.
Before entering the park, we ate at CityWalk and got excited looking at souvenirs.
