What was good and what was bad?
-Good
It's pretty new hotel. Nice hardware and service is also above average.
Location is good... and bad.
-Bad
IC Osaka is located in heart of Osaka. But from station to the the hotel, it's pretty far to walk(around 10 mins). Same 10 mins walk for shopping. St.regis or Marriott is better location I think.
If you need to go Kyoto or another province, it's good location because all trains stop here. But if you prefer to go fine restaurants and drinks, St.Regis is better location.
Marriott is located in Tennoji which is just 35mins from KIX by Haruka train. Also great location to shop and go somewhere.
Value for $ or Priority Club Points?
Yes
Would you return?
Definitely
