Where to stay in Bay — Universal Studios
A single-purpose area on reclaimed land west of the city: the park, the hotels built to serve it, and the Yumesaki line back to the centre. Nothing here is incidental — you are staying by the gates because you are going through them, probably early and probably with children. Treated as a general Osaka base it is a poor one, and it is not offered as one.
