Kansai Airport Spa Hotel Garden Palace

Fantastic kaiseki style breakfast in the new/modern dining area was very pleasantly surprising after a fairly basic late dinner in the front old cafeteria style area when we first arrived. Very friendly helpful staff at desk, and the transport shuttle to Hineno Station was good.

I stayed here for three nights after flying into KIX; Izumisano is a relatively quiet suburb close to the airport, with frequent and fast trains into Osaka. The breakfast is very traditional, made up of multiple small dishes - highly recommended if you'd like to try a variety of Japanese cuisine, and the miso soup in particular was delicious. The onsen is lovely and open for a large portion of every day; I had it to myself both times that I visited. The room, like the whole hotel, was clean and comfortable. Really the standout aspect was the staff - they could not have been more hospitable, kind and patient and they really went above and beyond at check-out, saving my onward journey! I really recommend staying here, particularly as a place to relax and recuperate before or after a flight.

Everything you need for a stop before or after a flight from Kansai. We have marked this place to come back as a destination alone. The price was good, the rooms were big, the private onsen and public onsen were AMAZING! Also did a private traditional dinner which was also an amazing price and great food!

This hotel is within 10 minutes of the airport. It's in kind of an odd location and our taxi driver had a hard time finding it. It is in a traditional Japanese neighborhood with lots of Family Marts and Lawsons around.

The staff were amazing, very friendly and made us feel extremely welcome throughout our trip. The accommodation also offered shuttles to nearby locations. The building was older but very well kept.
