Hilton's lifestyle brand, Canopy by Hilton Osaka Umeda, will open in September 2024 in the Umekita district, a redeveloped area north of Umeda Station in Osaka. Japan's first Canopy by Hilton brand is a playful hotel for adults, featuring a unique and tasteful design inspired by the culture and history of the area.
The green Umekita area resembles a beautiful, futuristic city
Did you know that the north side of Umeda Station in Osaka, commonly known as "Umeda Kita", has been completely transformed by redevelopment? The container yard of Umeda Freight Station, which used to be called "Kita Yard", has been completely transformed by redevelopment. The first phase of the redevelopment, "Grand Front Osaka", and the second phase, "Gran Green Osaka", have been completed, and the whole picture is now coming into view.
In the center of the towering buildings is Umekita Park, a large urban park covering an area of approximately 45,000 mXNUMX. With its spacious lawns and fountain plaza, the park is sure to become an oasis for many people at Umeda Station.
One of the surrounding buildings is scheduled to house Hilton's highest-end luxury brand, Waldorf Astoria Osaka, on the south side of the building, which is scheduled for completion in 2025. Opposite that, in the North Tower, is the brand Canopy by Hilton Osaka Umeda, which will be making its first foray into Japan.
The cafe "Bean there, Umeda" is located on the first floor, with the greenery of Umekita Park stretching out in front of it.
The Canopy by Hilton brand is not yet familiar in Japan as it is the first of its kind, but there are already over 40 hotels worldwide, and more than 41 are scheduled to open in 40 countries and regions in the future. It can be said that this is one of the premium brands that will see the most rapid growth in the Hilton Group.
The hotel's main feature is that it is a community-based hotel that maximizes the charm of the local area and develops designs and services based on the local uniqueness and culture. Local things and experiences are not only used as design motifs, but are also expressed in the food served in the restaurant and the cocktails served in the bar.
It is a space where tourists as well as locals can discover new local attractions.
The rooms offer beautiful views of Osaka's cityscape.
The playfulness of Canopy by Hilton Osaka Umeda, located on the 1st floor and the 10th to 25th floors of the North Tower, begins at the hotel entrance. Looking up at the ceiling lights in the entrance, you will see a motif of a hot plate for takoyaki, Osaka's soul food, and the hanging pipes on both sides are designed to resemble toothpicks. Octopus legs, dried bonito flakes, and green laver are painted as abstract art on the walls.
The design, which shines with the Osaka spirit, is sure to warm your heart.

The hotel is filled with art by local artists and Osaka-themed artwork. A corner of the lobby floor.
That same sense of fun is also apparent in the 53 guest rooms, including 19 suites, 308 connecting rooms and pet-friendly rooms.
The brand name Canopy features designs of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's horse crest, the Sennari Gourd, which is known as an auspicious symbol, as well as the metasequoia trees planted in Umekita Park.The store is also decorated with Fukusuke dolls, a lucky charm that is said to have originated in the Kansai region and is said to bring good fortune. Elements of Osaka's history and culture that may not be well known even to locals can be seen everywhere.
Cities that carry the Canopy by Hilton name, such as London, Madrid, and Cannes, have completely different atmospheres from year to year, so experiencing their uniqueness is likely to be one of the joys of the trip.
There are a total of 63 "corner suites" with an area of 51 square meters. Divided into a bed area and a living area, the calm interior features accent colors and pop designs that catch your eye.
Osaka, the city of "eat to your heart's content," has unique food-related ideas and passions
Inside the hotel, there is an all-dining restaurant called "CC: CARBON COPY" where you can enjoy cuisine from around the world served on beautiful Japanese "small plates." Next to it is the rooftop bar "!JaJa!Bar" where you can enjoy Osaka street food and original cocktails.
Additionally, on the first floor, facing Umekita Park, there is a cafe called "Bean there, Umeda" where you can enjoy Kansai roast coffee, sandwiches, and bagels, and pets are allowed on the terrace seating.
Located in the center of Osaka, this hotel is in the middle of the restaurant wars, with many restaurants in the neighborhood. That's why the restaurant is designed to highlight the unique dishes and ideas that can only be found here. Of course, the taste is second to none.
All-dining restaurant "CC: CARBON COPY" is headed by chef Paul Gaspa, who also serves as executive chef for Marriott International and the Pan Pacific Hotel Group.

Travel styles have changed in recent years, and while sightseeing is important, more and more people are finding that hotel life is more appealing. People want to cherish their daily routines while traveling, and spend their time in a way that suits them, so they find their own way of enjoying life.
Canopy by Hilton is a hotel brand that can truly support a new way of traveling. I heard that one is scheduled to open in Miyakojima, Japan in the future. I'm looking forward to seeing it completed.
