  • Hoshino Resorts' New City Tourism Hotel in Shin-Imamiya, Osaka
    Hoshino Resorts Press Release Hoshino Resorts’ New City Tourism Hotel in Shin-Imamiya, Osaka A location to fully experience the potential of Osaka Hoshino Resorts (Location: Karuizawa, Nagano Prefecture, Japan. CEO: Yoshiharu Hoshino) will be targeting urban tourists with the opening in 2022 of a large-scale city tourist hotel in front of Shin-Imamiya station in Osaka. The planned development is located in front of Shin-Imamiya station and close to Shinsekai, which is an area with high tourism potential as it is heavily influenced by charm and playfulness of Osaka. The location is within walking distance of symbolic destination of Osaka such as Tsutenkaku and the Shinsekai area, making it an attractive location for tourists who enjoy urban sightseeing. The site is next to Shin-Imamiya station on the Nankai Electric Railway and JR Osaka Loop Line, providing a direct access from the Kansai International Airport. It is also connected to the Dobutsuen-mae station on the Midosuji and Sakaisuji subway lines. The planned construction site is about 14,000 square meters and faces the platform of Shin-Imamiya station on the JR Osaka Loop Line. The creation of a green area integrated with the hotel building will make the hotel attractive to travelers and, at the same time, will create a landscape that will give commuters coming and going at Shin-Imamiya station a sense of greenery within the city. The hotel is designed to allow tourists to get more enjoyment out of sightseeing in Osaka and its surroundings. A plan for a public area will be available to include services that give a sense of Osaka's history and local culture, such as restaurants and cafeterias where guests can experience Osaka's famous food culture, public baths to ease away the stress and tiredness of traveling, amusement facilities, and venues that will host events aimed at hotel guests, such as seasonal entertainment and public viewing of different events.
