Patina Osaka, the first property in Japan by Capella Hotel Group, has been voted the No. 1 Hotel in the World and No. 1 City Hotel in Asia by Travel + Leisure’s World’s Best Awards 2026.
To commemorate this milestone, Patina Osaka has launched a special collaboration collection with globally renowned creator VERDY, who has served as the hotel’s Creative Partner since its opening. The limited-edition collection launched this month and is available only at Patina Osaka.
To commemorate the moment, VERDY has created a new illustration of Vick, his original character, celebrating alongside the Patina butterfly — a symbol of transformation. Together, they represent a journey rooted in Osaka, shaped through collaboration and now recognised around the world.
The illustration appears across a limited-edition collection. It also features an exclusive, not-for-sale tote bag that will be gifted to eligible guests booking directly with Patina Osaka.
More than a commemorative gift, the tote bag is Patina Osaka’s way of inviting guests into the celebration and recognising the part they have played in the hotel’s journey. Limited to the first 1,000 eligible reservations, it offers guests something tangible to carry forward from a milestone they helped make possible.
Patina Osaka’s partnership with VERDY reflects the hotel’s belief that meaningful cultural relevance cannot be imported or manufactured. It develops through long-term relationships with people who understand a place instinctively and can express its culture from within.
The project is also an expression of gratitude to the guests, partners, teammates and community who have supported Patina Osaka since its opening. By sharing the exclusive tote bag directly with guests, the hotel recognises that its journey has not been shaped by the hotel alone, but by everyone who has chosen to be part of it.
The first 1,000 eligible guests who book their stay directly through the Patina Osaka website or by telephone will receive a VERDY × Patina Osaka Limited-Edition Collaboration Tote Bag (Not for Sale). Limited to one bag per room
