LIBER HOTEL OSAKA

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is absolutely gorgeous. From the moment we entered the hotel, we were extremely impressed because it was beyond what we expected. The bath house was very nice, and the breakfast was amazing! So many tourists were taking a video of the breakfast buffet because it was nothing like we have ever seen. Although it had a very high-end feel, our kids were very welcomed and they thought the experience there was fantastic. Universal studio was just a quick 10 min walk, or one train stop away. We would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a luxurious experience with an amazing breakfast and onsen!"
