Centara Grand Hotel Osaka to open next July, now accepting reservations

Ahead of its opening in July 2023, Centara appoints Shigeki Nakagawa as the opening general manager for Centara Grand Hotel Osaka.

The 515-key Centara Grand Hotel Osaka, Centara's first property in Japan, aims to be a base for guests to explore the city’s spirited entertainment and shopping district. Designed with business travellers, families, couples and solo explorers in mind, Centara’s debut hotel in Japan offers something for everyone.
Nakagawa has more than 20 years of hospitality experience in a highly competitive local market, having previously worked at Hilton Osaka, The St. Regis Osaka, Moxy Osaka and ANA Crowne Plaza Hotel in Kobe. “We have closely witnessed Shigeki’s career growth. He is a very effective leader and manager, and we are delighted to have him head up our first Centara hotel to open in Japan,” said Thirayuth Chirathivat, chief executive Officer of Centara Hotels & Resorts.
“I am overjoyed to join such an esteemed international brand as Centara and am grateful for the opportunity to open its first hotel in Japan,” said Nakagawa. “I aim to bring my years of experience, expertise and industry knowledge into every detail of Centara Grand Hotel Osaka, in order to provide the highest level of service to our guests and make this exquisite property a success.”
Centara Grand Hotel Osaka is a 33-storey building towering over the heart of Namba, Osaka’s foremost downtown area. The accommodation choices range from 27m² Superior Room to 56m² Club Suite. Guests can discover an eclectic selection of bars and restaurants, ranging from casual to high-end.
Enjoy an evening tipple as you watch the city come to life from the spectacular rooftop venue Kunsei Kitchen. Thai flavours will be showcased at Suan Bua while Embassy of Crab will focus on seafood. Indulge in fine whiskeys and prime cuts at Whiskey Nova or sip a sundowner or a nightcap at Crudo Deck and Smoke & Spin rooftop bars. The upcoming property also boasts modern MICE facilities, grand ballrooms, co-working spaces, and award-winning SPA Cenvaree.
