We loved it! Our family of 6 shared 2 surprisingly large size rooms, that even can make our big luggages comfortable without getting in our ways! The breakfast was fabulous. Getting out of the back lobby, you turn right for Train Station and you turn left for shops, restaurants and The Universal Studios. And The Hotel has a natural spring water bath that opens until 1am, perfect for your tired legs. Expect nothing else, the Keihan Universal Tower has all you need for a great family kids friendly vacation!

The property was very beautiful and convenient for those visiting for Universal Studios. It is right next to the train station for easy access when traveling. We were there for 12 days. Staff cleaned the room each day and left fresh pjs for each person. They did have kid pjs that fit my 12 year old, but none that would fit my 1 year old. They did have hot springs on the spa floor but unfortunately I am covered in tattoos so that is definitely a no go. I did not even attempt so I can't comment on that area. They had a nice tea time between 1400-2100 that served coffee, tea, soft drinks, and pancakes. We did not add the breakfast because we wanted to explore other options. The breakfast did look tasty though. There were coffee shops and a McDonalds in the area that opened around 0630-0700 so we frequent those as well. The staff were very friendly. Fully stocked with all toiletry items needed. Had a nice view of Universal Studios from my room window. Had enough space for my family of 4. All in all I would revisit.

Our family enjoyed a four night stay at Hotel Keihan Universal. The primary draw was obviously the location next to USJ, but it served us well during the other parts of our Osaka travels as well. The room was very clean, staff were welcoming, the breakfast buffet was phenomenal, and the onsen was a really nice addition. Specifically we enjoyed the spaciousness of the room for our family of four, along with the in-room refrigerator and tea kettle. Dining options next to the hotel were plentiful, which made it easy to grab dinner or a snack after a long day. Its proximity next to the train station made it easy to access. We also appreciated the onsite washers and dryers, which allowed us to pack lighter on our trip.
