Centara Osaka debut slated for July 2023

Mr Thirayuth, centre, was recently in Japan for the project's topping-off event.

Centara Hotels & Resorts has confirmed a July 2023 opening date for Centara Grand Hotel Osaka.

Thirayuth Chirathivat, the group's chief executive, was recently in Japan for the project's topping-off event alongside executives from Centara's partners: Taisei Corporation and Kanden Realty & Development.

Mr Thirayuth made time to visit the site of the hotel on Namba Street.

Construction is progressing, with a 35-storey structure completed as work nears the halfway point on the time table.

Upon completion, Centara said its debut property in Japan will feature 515 premium rooms, including some with bunk beds and connecting rooms, making it an ideal destination for families, leisure and business travellers.

The hotel features a unique rooftop dining room crowning the building as well as the first SPA Cenvaree in the country, a fitness centre, co-working space, and sophisticated event spaces, according to the company.

Centara's foray into Japan highlights the group's strategic goal of becoming a top 100 global hotel operator within five years, with a portfolio of roughly 200 hotels and resorts, up from 89 properties at present.
