Hotel with a great location to visit Universal Studios Japan! Breakfast as great and rooms were comfortable, which provided us with a great quality of sleep. Just as a heads up, and not that it bothered us, but the luggage room can be accessed by everyone, and each sets up and removed a locker from their bag. This didn't bother us at all, but was the only thing different than usual in the entire stay.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at the Oriental Hotel Universal City in Osaka, and overall, it was a truly surprisingly delightful experience, especially for a family visiting Universal Studios Japan! Imagine having free snacks, delicious soft-serve ice cream, and refreshing soft drinks available throughout the entire day! It was such a treat, especially after a long day of exploring. And as if that wasn't enough, they even offered a hot dog reception in the evenings, which was a fantastic bonus and a great way to grab a quick bite. We also enjoyed the breakfast buffet, which was included with our booking. It offered a good variety of both Japanese and Western options, and while it could get a bit busy, it was a convenient and tasty start to our days. Our favorites: hamburger sliders, corn potage, pasta, udon, and even a truffle waffle benedict. These thoughtful touches really made our stay feel special and added so much value. Traveling as a family of four, finding suitable accommodation can sometimes be a challenge, but the Oriental Hotel truly delivered. The rooms look recently refurbished or remodeled, and our room was perfectly set up with four single beds, ensuring everyone had their own space! We also really appreciated the modern convenience of charging ports right at the headboard for each bed, making it super easy to keep all our devices powered up. Beyond that, the room also came with a mini-fridge, electric kettle, and free toiletries, and we were particularly impressed by thoughtful additions like a shoes dryer, air purifier, and even an Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) machine for tired feet! While the room itself was a bit on the smaller side and being on a lower floor meant we didn't have much of a view, the convenience of the location more than made up for it. Having a Lawson's convenience store right next door was incredibly handy for grabbing essentials, and the walk to the Universal Studios Japan gates was surprisingly short. It was only a few extra minutes beyond the hotels directly at the front gate, and the more reasonable pricing made it an excellent value choice. While we didn't use it, the hotel's proximity to the JR Universal City Station makes it easy to explore other parts of Osaka. Now, it's worth noting that the customer service approach is quite self-service. There's no traditional luggage hold; you utilize a luggage room with chained locks, and there aren't any bellhops, so be prepared to manage your bags to and from your room. Also, while Uber can drop you off at the hotel, they don't pick up from there, so we relied on taxis for our departures, which sometimes took "scenic routes" to our destinations increasing the fare quite a bit. Despite these minor points, the overwhelming positives, especially the fantastic complimentary offerings, the ideal setup for families, and the convenient location, truly made our stay at the Oriental Hotel Universal City a memorable one. If you're looking for a comfortable, value-packed stay with amazing perks near Universal Studios Japan, we highly recommend it!
