When it became the venue for the 5th Domestic Exposition in 1903, buildings and export items symbolizing Japan’s industrial development were gathered, and many theaters were born. "Tsutenkaku" was built on the site of this venue, which became the current "New World", and many entertainers began to live in this area. When the center of Osaka was affected by the Great Osaka Air Raid in 1945, the area was close to the center of Osaka, but the damage was small, so entertainers from all over Osaka gathered, and at its peak, it came to be called "Tennoji Village", a city where 400 entertainers lived. If you walk around the city, you can hear the sound of shaven, and in the park there were people practicing dance and comedy, so you can feel how bright is this city. The property is a private inn with a private sauna where you can enjoy with your friends and a "Totoi Space" where you can listen to music. We hope everyone can have a good time while gathering with friends and listening to music like "Tennoji Village" together. ーTennoji Getaway in Japan Stay in the heart of Tennoji, Osaka’s retro downtown!
