Osaka Kansai Airport
Recent Review
The airports are not open 24 hours in Japan except for Kansai and Haneda. So the guards would insist that you leave. In Kansai, try the relaxation lounge on the north side of 2nd floor. It's 24 hours open, free self-service non-alchol drinks available, hi-speed internet access, DVDs with language options, magazines, comic books and newspapers in Japanese (10,000 of them), open-style reclyning seats for 2,600 yen (around 25USD) for 6-hours package (closed booths cost 3,000 Yen). Pay 300 yen for a nice hot shower. Why make decent Japanese policemen worry about you gaijins (aliens) lying in the dark with nowhere to go?
I stayed at the Kansai International Airport for like 12 hours from 10 pm to 10 am.
Approximately at 12pm i woke up cause of announcement which said that most parts of the airport would close till morn.
So I went to the other floors, ask the information desk where can i sleep except for paid area, they said 2nd floor will still have AC and lights on. The whole airport was just empty (kinda spooky). There was only me and one black guy who left soon. Security (one small tiny lady and 2 huge guys) checked my passport and asked where and when I'm heading at like 2 am then left and never bothered me again. So in general it was almost like a hotel)) toilets are also great.

"Is is NOT possible to sleep overnight here. The airport closes at 22:00 , then just me on a bench waiting for my 07:00, the cleaners, and security, who politely but firmly escorted me to the airport hotel."
