Fodor's Expert Review Cross Hotel Osaka

2--5--15 Shin-sai-bashi-suji, Osaka, Osaka-fu, 542–0085, Japan

One of Osaka's most stylishly modern and hip hotels, Cross is perfectly located for exploring the south side of Osaka. The bold, red glass–fronted exterior and spacious, design-focused rooms have the feeling of being at a boutique hotel—albeit one with over 200 rooms. The amenity-filled, spacious bathrooms—a rarity in Osaka—are another highlight.

PROS

  • excellent bathrooms with large tubs
  • right in the center of Minami's dining, shopping, and nightlife
  • friendly, energetic staff

CONS

  • between night-owl guests and the highway below, it can be somewhat noisy
  • pricey for a midrange hotel
  • breakfasts are a bit hit-or-miss
