OMO Kansai Airport by Hoshino Resorts

Booked 4 nights here, I enjoyed the sunset from my room window. The view on the 20th floor is stunning, and the open sky view on the 21st floor is completely breathtaking! This hotel is one station away from the Kansai (KIX) Airport, and it is good for your final stop just before a flight home because the RINKU PREMIUM OUTLET is just 15 mins walk frm hotel! However, if u wish to explore Tokyo,Kyoto, Nara, the travel distance is really far . This hotel has a spa bath too but my sister and I didn't have time to experience it. Lawson convenience store is located at hotel lobby an another bigger one is just by the Rinku Town station. To get to the hotel, alight at Rinku Town station, take exit 5 . Check-in is strictly only at 15:00 hrs NO exception at all, regardless you're travelling with an elderly OR a pregnant lady. (I saw these guests waited at the lobby together with me and was thinking, why would the hotel make the guests gather and accumulate rather than assign them into any of the rooms available given their priority/ needs ) If one needs to check in earlier than 3pm, an hourly charge of 1220 ¥en is required. Hotel operates with an auto check-in system via the kiosk at lobby. I would probably stay again next time if I travel to Japan with my spouse, but would only book 2 nights at most. (Just to conveniently shop at Rinku Premium store/get to the airport) Daily room rate is quite expensive 😅

One train stop away from the Kansai airport. If you manage your time well, they provided free shuttle bus pick up from airport. Self check in with minimum assist. Overall small room but not too dated hotel. The buffet dinner is delicious with a nice view from the restaurant.

The location next to the Kansai Station but we still need to take train to get the airport ahout 15 more minutes.
