The Royal Park Canvas - Osaka Kitahama

The Royal Park Canvas - Osaka Kitahama

10/10 Excellent
"This place was fire. They were by far the best pajamas out of all the hotels that I’ve stayed at in Japan. I dream of those pants. They often have live music. It is attached to a subway station. And every night they have a different face mask that you can grab from the amenity counter. It was only supposed to stay here two nights and then I booked two more."
