What other travelers are saying about Sakishima Cosmo Tower
This observation deck is included as part of the free Osaka pass. Very few people were there when we arrived.
The place was dark and quiet for you to really enjoy the view. A cafe is also available for you to grab small desserts and drinks.
Seems like good location to stay if atttending a convention in the area (it was a 10-minute walked to the Intex center where I was working) or USJ (to where there is a shuttle bus I believe). Otherwise not a great location and rather sterile with little to do after dark.
Food options seems to be limited to the food court and cafes in the ATC center which is nearby.
The interior design is a little gaudy but my room was spacious. I didn't do much other than take shower and sleep so the lack of western style seating mentioned by others was not an issue. The big tatami mat area by the window could actually be very welcome to people with young children.
The bed was nice and firm and I slept really well. Helped by the fact that I was one person in a twin room so could use two pillows.
Water was unfortunately provided in a plastic PET bottle. Nice to have ceramic cups (no coffee provided so take you own if that is an essential kick starter for you!)
Came here with free entry with the osaka amazing pass in the morning. Came back again at night since there free same day reentry. The view was beautiful at night. Surprisingly not much people both time. If you are tired of the line up at umeda sky building. (Took my half an hour to get up and only stayed even less due to lots of people). This is a very good alternative night view place to view.
A great spot if you are a fan of Observatories.
We went using the Osaka amazing 2 day pass! We went during the day on Sunday before noon it was really not busy.
The tower itself is beautiful and when a top the views are stunning even around noon. You can see over the entire city then some!
Highly recommend with the 2 day pass.
Panoramic view of the Osaka city, port, and the ocean. Only place where you can clearly see the city, mountains, and the ocean as well as cars, trains, and ships.
Came here instead of the Umeda observatory. This is indeed a hidden gem most tourists don't know about.
