Access

Second Inn Umeda is a 9 minute walk south-west of Osaka Station. The best way to access the hotel is via Osaka Station’s Sakurabashi Gate. It is easy to find because it is located right next door to Osaka’s most luxurious hotel, the Ritz-Carlton, and it occupies a rather eye-catching 13 story building with “2nd inn” emblazoned in blue at the top.
