Red Roof PLUS+ Namba-Osaka opens in Japan
The former 198-room Floral Inn has now become the 224-room Red Roof PLUS+ Namba-Osaka after undergoing a copy4.5 million renovation, including the addition of 26 new guest rooms.
The property which has been updated with the standard Red Roof PLUS+ décor and amenities opened on July 15, 2016 and is marketed to domestic, foreign, business and leisure travelers.
“Red Roof’s continued global expansion is a definitive sign of how healthy and in demand our brand is,” says Andrew Alexander, President, Red Roof.

Red Roof is stepping up to the plate and providing what travelers need in a diverse number of cities around the world.”
The Red Roof PLUS+ in Namba-Osaka is ideally situated near the famous Dotonbori/Sennichi shopping and entertainment district of Osaka which features an extensive array of restaurants, lounges and retail outlets. It is also within minutes of the Namba, Nipponbashi and Shinsaibashi stations, as well as the famous Midosuji shopping arcade.
“At Red Roof our international development and expansion efforts have been extremely successful,” says Phil Hugh, Chief Development Officer, Red Roof.
“The opening of the Red Roof PLUS+ in Osaka is a testament to the appeal of the Red Roof brand; its attractiveness to investors and travelers and adds to our growing portfolio of properties in global locations including Brazil and Thailand.
Development and growth are intrinsic to Red Roof’s DNA.”
