History

The hotel originally opened in March 1990, as Nankai South Tower Hotel Osaka (南海サウスタワーホテル大阪). The building stands 36 floors (with three more floors below ground), and 147 metres (482 ft) high.[1]

In 2003, Raffles Hotels and Resorts signed a deal with Nankai Electric Railway to operate the Nankai South Tower Hotel. As a result of this deal, the property's name was changed to Swissôtel Nankai Osaka, and it became the first Swissôtel Hotels and Resorts property in Japan.[2]

In 2016, AccorHotels acquired FRHI Hotels & Resorts, Swissôtel Nankai Osaka become the upper and luxury tier property of AccorHotels in Japan.
