Centara Hotels & Resorts, Thailand's leading hospitality operator, announces the opening of Centara Grand Hotel Osaka, its newest property and Centara’s first-ever foray into the Japanese market, on July 1.

Centara Grand Hotel Osaka is a 33-storey masterpiece conveniently located in the heart of Namba, Osaka's vibrantly busy shopping and entertainment district, where you can find the iconic Glico Man and the Kani Doraku Crab.

A five-minute walk away from Namba subway station, Centara Gran Osaka boasts 515 rooms and suites, each featuring floor-to-ceiling windows and modern comforts to ensure a restful stay. The hotel also offers a myriad of customisable event spaces, including meeting rooms, a Grand Ballroom and rooftop Sky Event space, making it the ideal venue for hosting events.

Along with expanding the footprint of Centara in Japan, Japan's first-ever Spa Cenvaree will also open as a tranquil retreat where guests can escape from the hustle and bustle of Osaka's business and shopping district.

Judging from what has been revealed so far, the hotel aims to be a foodie playground with a total of eight eateries ranging from sky-high dining at Kunsei Kitchen, futuristic sky bar Automata to homesick remedies for Thai guests at Suan Bua Thai restaurant.

In anticipation of its grand opening, Centara is offering two travel packages namely the pampering "Spa + Stay Experience" and the "Sky-High Gourmet Escape". The former is optimised for a romantic retreat during which your worries will melt away with a rejuvenating Thai massage for couples on top of a stay and daily breakfast for two. It's available for booking until Dec 31 for stays from July 1 to Dec 31.

The latter pairs panoramic views of downtown Osaka with a stunning two-course rooftop dinner at Crudo Deck with 90-minute free-flow drinks. Guests will also have the opportunity to spend the night in luxury in a tastefully appointed guest room and wake up to delight in the hotel's delectable breakfast. The Sky-High Gourmet Escape can be booked until Dec 31 for stays from July 1 to Dec 31.

There is also a fully-equipped fitness centre and co-working spaces to fulfil the needs of leisure and business travellers at the hotel. Visit centarahotelsresorts.com/centaragrand/cgoj.
