Guests who want to spend an extended time in the city can also benefit from discontented monthly and long-term rental rates; just ask the friendly Shiki staff.

    Location

    Nestled in Nishinari Ward near the famous Shinsekai area, Kurumi has an amazing location for sightseeing. Hanazonocho Station, with Yotsubashi Line is an eight-minute walk, and Imamiya Station, with access to the JR Osaka Loop Line and JR Yamatoji Line is a 10-minute walk from the property. Only two stops away is the Namba area, where you can find the Dotonbori Canal, Hozen-ji Temple, and Amerikamura. Further down the Yotsubashi Line is Osaka Station and Nishi-Umeda, both the city’s most convenient transfer point, home to the Umeda Sky Building and many amazing retail destinations. 

    Osaka City Museum of Fine Art, Shitennoji Temple, Abeno Harukas, and Kuromon Market can all be reached in a short five-to-ten minute cab ride. Or if you prefer to walk, Tsutenkaku Tower and Tennoji Zoo are 20 minutes away on foot, as is the scenic Tennoji Park, which is perfect for a picnic or casual mid-morning stroll. For local culture and dining, the surrounding neighborhood has plenty of local charm and shopping, with amazingly affordable prices. 

    Kurumi’s location offers wonderful access to both the airport and Shin-Osaka station, home to the shinkansen (bullet train). Kansai International Airport is a 50-minute drive or a direct 55-minute train journey on the nearby Shin-Imamiya Station, while the Shin-Osaka Station is a simple half-hour train journey.
