Faultess.

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked club, got one bedroom suite.

How are the rooms?
Smallish 60 sqm suite, luxuriously furnished. Large walk-in closet. Spacious shower/tub/washing area, but a fairly little space around the sink in the bathroom. Comfortable, but hard bed.
Excellent minibar I wouldn't mind paying for, coffee machine.

How is the exec. lounge?
Small and private.
Good selection of drinks for happy hour and some small hors d'oeuvres.
Outstanding staff.
Mediocre views over Osaka.

What was good and what was bad?
Good

- This is a brand new, top-notch luxury hotel in the center of Osaka
- Connect to a huge new mall complex with plenty of restaurants and bars
- Outstanding staff throughout the hotel
- Indoor pool with outdoor seating area

Value for CNY or Priority Club Points?.Would you return?
Unsure, if the premium for club is worth it, considering the numerous bars and restaurants around the hotel that are just too inviting to explore. Otherwise, great hotel, good value. Would return.
I just stayed here as well and loved the hotel, especially the staff. We booked the cheapest room and received a complimentary Club upgrade. I definitely wouldn't pay for a club room just to get a suite upgrade considering that the suite is 59 sq meters vs 49 sq meters for a club room.
