Experience of the stay
The pool, which I was most looking forward to, was a stunning space that was more beautiful than I expected, and the lazy river was very pleasant! The mini slide and jacuzzi were also a lot of fun for the kids!
The large public bath also has great spring quality, and my husband, who loves saunas, was relaxed because the temperature of the sauna and cold bath was just right.
The room was spacious; although it shows its age, it was comfortable to stay in. They also prepared a baby guard when I told them in advance over the phone (it's better to contact them early since there's a limited number).
There were several points that were concerning, but overall, with a kids' room and more, it is a recommendable accommodation for families with children!
Concerns:
- The pool has a separate fee, and it is a one-time entry; re-entry incurs a fee...
- The pool is surprisingly small, and since there are also day-use guests, it can get crowded.
- The pool water temperature is a bit low, so small children might feel chilly.
- It's a shame that swim caps are required.
- There are no baby baths or baby soap in the large public bath, so it’s hard to wash a baby during the rolling stage (this was the most disappointing point).
- The spring water is murky, and there are bumps that are not visible when carrying a baby, which makes it a bit dangerous to navigate.
- Although we added a breakfast and dinner buffet for an extra charge, the quality was low, and the satisfaction was not high for the price (but they do have baby food, which is good!)
Experiences during the trip
I booked a hotel that is cost-effective and enjoyable even during the busy season for my son's birthday. I was worried because it was a day with an approaching typhoon, but we arrived safely and had a great time. The next day we went to the Karuizawa Outlet, and thanks to the typhoon, we were also able to see the postponed fireworks in Karuizawa. My son, who loves fireworks and festivals, had a wonderful birthday trip.
