The Park Front Hotel At Universal Studios Japan™

“It's got everything, thanks Universal Studios in Osaka Japan 🌸🌸🌸🌸”

This hotel is beautiful, and I really love those man's when they have a perfect greeting 😊

“Nice stay, very convenient location”

Great stay at this hotel. Love how convenient and close to USJ it is (though other hotels are also pretty close by). Lots of restaurants and shopping right outside though many felt more like a tourist trap. The hotel is clean and modern. The staff is friendly and helpful. We booked a room with fou… more

Great stay at this hotel. Love how convenient and close to USJ it is (though other hotels are also pretty close by). Lots of restaurants and shopping right outside though many felt more like a tourist trap. The hotel is clean and modern. The staff is friendly and helpful. We booked a room with four twin beds and though it was a little small, it worked for us. There is a laundry room on almost every floor (I think 4th to 28th floor) which makes it easy. I think each laundry room has only one washer/dryer (it’s an all in one) so you might have to wait your turn but we got lucky and never had to wait! The washing machine will dispense the detergent automatically. The dryer isn’t the best so you might need to add an extra 30 minutes of dry time. It takes 600 yen and two hours to complete one full wash and dry. However, there are shorter time settings to choose from. There is a desk on the main floor to purchase USJ tickets if you need to. It usually looks unstaffed but if you wait a few minutes, someone will notice you and come over to help.

“Perfect Stay for Universal Studios Japan”

We stayed two nights at the Park Front Hotel and had another fantastic experience. This was actually our second time staying here, and honestly, if we’re visiting Universal Studios Japan, this is the only hotel we’d want to stay at. The hotel itself is gorgeous. The lobby is elegant and immediately gives the place a really upscale and welcoming feel. The staff during check-in were very kind and helpful. One important note for travelers: make sure to have the passport for each person staying in the room ready during check-in, as they will ask for them. Before arriving in Osaka, we used Yamato luggage delivery from Tokyo so we wouldn’t have to drag large luggage onto the Shinkansen. The process could not have been easier. Our luggage had already arrived at the hotel and was handed over to us immediately at check-in. We booked a two queen room since we did not see a king option available when reserving. Our room was city-facing instead of park-facing, but the view was absolutely stunning. The accommodations were wonderful and the room itself was very comfortable and nicely maintained. The convenience factor of this hotel is unbeatable. There’s a coffee spot connected right near the lobby entrance, plus Wolfgang Puck and a Lawson in the rear of the hotel, which came in handy constantly during our stay. And the location truly cannot be beat. The hotel is literally about a one-minute walk to the Universal Studios Japan front gate. It’s also directly in CityWalk, surrounded by dining and shopping options, and only about a one-minute walk to the train station as well. We also used taxis during our stay, and the pickup area is extremely easy to access — just downstairs beyond the elevators and down the escalator. Overall, another outstanding stay. Beautiful hotel, incredibly convenient location, easy transportation access, and excellent service. Definitely highly recommended for anyone visiting Universal Studios Japan.

“Just okay”

We stayed here two nights, on a weekday in June. We had a family room which was large and spacious and had 4 beds.

We stayed here two nights, on a weekday in June. We had a family room which was large and spacious and had 4 beds. It was clean and the amenities were surprising - some which we weren’t anticipating and some we wished we had. The good: electric kettle, lots of towels, tons of things like bath salts, cream, toothbrushes, combs, shaving kit. Nice bathrobes and slippers. The disappointing: no iron, no coffee, only one night table for 4 beds, and no plug sockets other than the ones on the counter. This made charging devices difficult. The pillows were odd, some sort of heavy beads on the bottom of a few of them, haven’t seen this anywhere else in Japan but maybe it’s more common in older hotels? 3 of the 4 beds were okay but the one I had was awful. I felt hard springs in my back and hips all night long and barely slept due to the discomfort. There was a laundry on our floor - didn’t use it, but nice it was there. There was food on the door handles of the laundry, presumably because there was a microwave and someone had used it and gotten tomato sauce on their hands when they opened the door…? Water cooler was nice to have. The location is brilliant - right next to USJ and rail stop super close. Two different konbini within walking distance. Staff was friendly - stored our bags while we enjoyed the park. Getting a taxi is super easy, too. I felt like this was just an okay place to spend a couple nights near USJ. I think for the price it could have been a little more comfortable and modern (like plug sockets and USB sockets).
