Marriott International Asia Pacific excluding China chief lodging product and services officer Cristiano Rinaldi said: “Series by Marriott is a regionally created, globally connected collection brand that brings together independent hotels and locally recognised hotel groups under the trusted umbrella of Marriott Bonvoy.
“Sugata Hotel Osaka Shinsaibashi beautifully captures the character of Osaka and demonstrates how thoughtful design and local storytelling can create meaningful experiences for travellers while delivering the consistency and care our guests expect from Marriott.
“Following the successful global debut of Series by Marriott in India last year, this opening represents an important milestone for the brand’s expansion in Asia Pacific and underscores Marriott International’s continued commitment to Japan as a strategically important market.”
Last month, Marriott added a property in Santa Barbara, US, to its Series by Marriott collection after Hawkins Way Capital and FOUND Hotels completed the rebranding of the former Best Western Plus Pepper Tree Inn.
