Star Gate Hotel Kansai Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Super close access to Rinku Premium outlet and Pleasure Town Seacle malls. Room is spacious and clean with 2 double beds and 2 single bed, plenty of space for a family of 4. Would definitely stay here again before flying out of Kansai airport."

Izumisano Center Hotel

8/10 Good

"Airport shuttle was convenient, but we made an error by booking 2 nights here.. 1 night before a flight is best.. this is far from everything we did make the most if it by walking to Rinku beach at sunset. Nice mall at Rinku. The breakfast might be good for Japanese, not our thing.. free water first night only and no ice ??? I thought every hotel provides ice.. clean , large rooms, nut only 1 pillow, could use 2 pillows per bed.."

"The food was excellent and the onsen at night overlooking the ocean and the lighthouse was incredible. If you're planning to go to Tomogashima island keep in mind that the ferry doesn't sail on Wednesday and may be cancelled on other days due to high wind. I was unable to make it to the island on my 2 night stay so I suppose I will just have to come back again!"
