A guesthouse in Osaka’s bay area. The place’s name, “Rice”, nods at the hope for it to be loved as widely as the Japanese people keep a widespread love of rice, while serving as a way to connect different peoples from in and out of Japan.
The guesthouse’s exterior is decorated with a lattice design while the inside keeps with modern Japanese touches like a door with the look of a traditional sliding door, or glass door that is seemingly decorated with washi paper. The design creates a cozy space and concept that embodies the idea of “visiting your relatives in Osaka”.
The guesthouse keeps 11 rooms, including a single room with a semi-double bed inside, a twin room, a twin room with an extra bed and more. If in the triple room, you’ll find am impeccable view of Tempozan Ferris wheel as it lights up against the night sky.
In the first floor bar and common area, there's an over-sized projecter set up where you can watch movies or sports games while mingling with fellow guests. Many people love the chance to meet some interesting people during their stay.
There’s even details on how to get a Osaka city-run ferry over to Universal Studios Japan listed on the Activities page of the official site. The guesthouse is located conveniently near Osaka’s tourist areas while still providing some distance from the main hustle and bustle for your optimum Osaka stay.
