I booked The Rise so we can walk to Universal. It was beautiful. We booked for a family, The kids really enjoyed the stay here. It was close to Universal, Family mart and train station. Bathrooms were great. They had a washing machine as well. Breakfast was included and it was delicious. They had an Onsen as well, which we loved! It was easy to check in. I will definitely be back again. This was one of our favourite places to stay in Japan. Highly recommended.

This place is amazing. This place was built in 2025, so everything is brand new. It is close enough to Universal Studios Japan, but not in the middle of the large and loud crowds, as well as close enough to get into the other areas of Osaka, Kobe and Kyoto. The breakfast was top notch. I recommend highly.

Thank you for a peaceful stay. Everything was great except for the beds as they were very firm and can be uncomfortable. Did not have breakfast so I cannot comment on it. All in all I would give this place 7/10.

We booked for a stay of 6 nights but only 2 small packets of detergent were provided. Pillows and blankets shld be provided for guests sleeping in the tatami area in the living room. We could only make do with the small cushions so didnt sleep well. And there was no one to contact for help. Overall, the place was clean. Short 7 min walk to the train station was a plus. There are no amenities in the area so get what you need in town before heading back. Breakfast was a choice of Japanese or Western. Same dishes throughout the 6 days so got a bit sick of it towards the end.

The property was very beautiful, with mesmerizing views of the bay. The rooms were very clean, comfortable, very quiet area perfect for relaxing. The room was equipped with a kitchen with all the necessary tools to cook if we needed to, but we only needed the coffee and tea makers because the breakfast was delectable! The restaurant personnel are extremely agreeable and helpful.
