Experience of the stay
This time, I stayed for one night with my kids in a club room on the 14th floor. We arrived at the hotel around 2 PM, an hour earlier than the usual check-in time of 3 PM. Upon arrival, we were greeted with welcome drinks of champagne and snacks while we received an explanation of the facilities… I was already moved at this point, thinking "Ah, I'm so glad I splurged!" After that, even before check-in, we could use the pool and lounge.
We departed to the partner Kariyushi Beach while the weather was nice. (Buses to the beach run every 15 minutes.) Here, we were able to borrow umbrellas and chairs for free as a club room perk, allowing us to enjoy the beach while the kids played in the shallows of the well-maintained sea!
Back at the hotel, from 5 to 7 PM, we enjoyed light snacks and drinks… There was food that the kids could eat, and we were able to spend a leisurely time as a family. After that, we had a blast at the night pool! Many hotels do not allow children to use the pool at night, but here there were events that the kids could enjoy, allowing them to play as long as their energy lasted. (Fireworks and water gun events, etc.)
Please note that the spa is only open at night… It was busy during that time, but soaking in the hot spring was really relaxing.
We could drink alcohol and juice from the fridge in the room and relax at night while listening to our favorite music on the Balmuda speaker.
Breakfast can be enjoyed at the club lounge and another venue, so we had a meal at the bookable lounge and then enjoyed the kids' donut time at the restaurant! (This pattern is recommended as it helps avoid crowds.)
The club room has a late check-out until 12 PM, so we were able to play in the pool until the last minute. If you’re going to stay at the Oriental Hotel, I recommend the club room! With HafH, even during the high summer season, you can stay at a great price due to the coin system, and it was a truly satisfying trip.
Experiences during the trip
Although it is a bit far from the hotel, a recommended gourmet spot on Kokusai Street is a Miyako soba restaurant called "Doraemon." It's located a bit off the alley, and depending on the time, it might not have a long queue, making it a hidden gem. The well-prepared broth and tender meat are very delicious!
