Rihga Royal Hotel Entrusted with the Operation of the Official Guest House for the Osaka-Kansai World Expo

Rihga Royal Hotel has been entrusted with the operation of the official guest house for the Osaka-Kansai World Expo.

The decision was made through a proposal method, and a service contract has been concluded with the Japan Association for the 2025 World Exposition. The hotel will provide hospitality and food services to guests from both Japan and overseas who come for official events such as National Day, Special Day, and pavilion inspections.

Rihga Royal Hotel had also undertaken the operation of the guest house and the water restaurant during the 1970 Osaka Expo, in charge of many receptions and dinners. It was also entrusted with the operations of the guest house during the 1990 International Garden and Greenery Exposition.

Fumiichi Ueda, the president and CEO, commented, “Responding to the local call for ‘a modern hotel for guests in Osaka,’ it is an honor and of great significance for our company to be involved in the hospitality for guests visiting from all over the world for the Osaka-Kansai World Expo. We will strive to contribute to the success of the Osaka-Kansai World Expo through our operational skills developed through past guest hospitality and numerous international conferences, our commitment to cuisine, and our hospitality born from a warm heart.”
