The breakfast was fantastic — so many options, and everything tasted great. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive throughout our stay. Every part of the hotel, including our room, was spotless. I requested fresh towels daily, and they not only provided them but also made the bed each day. The views from our room, the restaurant, and the Sky Spa were absolutely breathtaking. After a long day of walking and sightseeing, relaxing in the Sky Spa’s large bath with that amazing view was the perfect way to unwind.

The only slight downside was the location — while the hotel itself was wonderful, getting to places like the Children’s Museum, USJ, or Kobe required changing trains and took quite a bit of time.

Great location, very close to the station. It seems far, but it actually doesn’t take make to commute to either Osaka (35 min) or Kyoto (45 min). We also went to Nara Park in around 1 hour. It’s a great place if you wanted to do both city without changing hotels multiple times. Facility was absolutely stunning! Beautiful room, clean and very big, especially compared to other hotel rooms in Japan. Amenities included in the price. Highly recommended!

Hard to find with just google maps. It took us quite some time to figure out where it was due to ongoing construction that cut the road and from google maps you could not really go around it. The best way to find it is to find the closest 7/11 close to the Hirakatashi station, and go through the open garage of the mall. You’ll see an illuminated star (Candeo’s logo). You could also go through the mall from the station, but why not stop at 7/11 in any case.

The entire hotel has amazing views of Osaka / Hirakata. Breakfast was good and had a beautiful view. Rainfall shower was great. Room was large for price. View from the room was nice, fridge was good size. Decorations were nice as well.

Nothing, it was great.

This hotel was very handy to train and restaurants. Staff were friendly and super helpful.

Nothing really negative but breakfast was a little expensive.

The hotel was brand new and the view was amazing

The spa policy does not allow tattoos. I am an American and this kept me from enjoying the public spa area. vvv The hotel did give me a private bath in the room which made my stay worthwhile

Exceptional hotel staff, rooms, amenities, cleanliness and location. This is my second time and it did not disappoint as expected.

The breakfast buffet is too pricey.

Spot on location. Very clean, the staff is helpful and the spa is a good bonus.

Breakfast could be better, more variety would be appreciated.

The hotel is very clean and the rooms are spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was amazing and the staff very kind. Spa at the top floor also amazing.

The onsen did not have a minimum age.

Convenient location for my requirements.

Not enough lifts leading to long waiting times at busy periods.
