3 ways Hotel Hankyu Gran Respire Osaka elevates your stay beyond great rooms

For a truly sumptuous stay, treat yourself to the exclusive Club Floors at Hotel Hankyu Gran Respire Osaka. Spanning levels 26 and 27, these rooms and suites are generously sized, with separate living areas for added comfort. Aside from the extra space, they also come with cool perks to make your time in Osaka all the more indulgent.

To start, Club Floor guests have access to the Club Lounge on level 27, a serene, elegant space perfect for unwinding, relaxing and recharging. Thanks to its lofty perch, the lounge offers sweeping views over Osaka’s cityscape.

Here, you can help yourself to a range of complimentary refreshments including coffee, tea, soft drinks and a selection of alcoholic beverages such as wine, beer, sake and more. Light meals are also served throughout the day.

Additionally, Club Floor guests receive one complimentary entry per night to the Umekita Onsen Ren Wellbeing Park, conveniently located within the same building.

For ultimate relaxation, you won’t even need to step outside the hotel. Just head to the fourth floor for direct access to the sprawling Umekita Onsen Ren Wellbeing Park.

There’s plenty to do at this urban wellness retreat, so you could easily spend a few hours rejuvenating both body and mind. The onsen is fed by natural hot spring water from Kobe Minato Onsen Ren, and its interior design evokes the feel of a traditional ryokan. There’s also an indoor pool, bathed in natural light by day and transformed with atmospheric video projections after dark. Fitness enthusiasts will be pleased to find a gym well-equipped with the latest machines.

Perhaps the highlight of it all is the open-air infinity pool overlooking the greenery of Umekita Park and the striking architecture of Grand Green Osaka. It’s one of the most photogenic spots in the city, a perfect place to unwind for hours while you soak in the view.

Located on the hotel’s fifth floor, Maison Verte is a cool new addition to Osaka’s thriving dining scene. It comes with impressive credentials, being run by the team behind the Bib Gourmand-rated L’As, a French restaurant in Tokyo’s Minami-Aoyama.

The enticing menu evolves throughout the day. Mornings begin with a lavish buffet-style breakfast featuring around 120 Japanese and Western dishes. At lunch, you can enjoy a deli-plate course complete with a drink bar. In the afternoon, unwind in the café lounge over a refined afternoon tea.

Come evening, settle in for a seasonal multicourse dinner, similar to the one served at L’As, which includes its signature Crispy Foie Gras Sandwich. You can opt for wine pairing, or end the evening at the stylish on-site bar with original cocktails like the Takoyaki Margarita.

If you’re looking for even more food and drink options, stroll over to Time Out Market Osaka, located within Grand Green Osaka itself. The first of its kind in Asia, this vibrant food and cultural hub curated by the global Time Out media group serves up delectable eats from the region’s award-winning restaurants and emerging chefs.
