Experience of the stay
This was my second time staying here.
As soon as you enter the grounds, the bamboo forest is lush and creates a refined atmosphere. The path from the parking lot to the lobby entrance is picturesque.
If you go straight from the hotel entrance, you can see the national treasure Inuyama Castle. This view is breathtaking.
The room is spacious, has a balcony, and overlooks the Yurakuen side. There is also a sofa on the balcony.
First, I changed into a yukata and headed to the hot springs.
There are slippers and wooden clogs in the room. A drawstring bag for taking to the hot springs is also provided.
Face towels and bath towels are available at the hot springs, which means you don’t have to bring them from your room, which is fantastic.
I always take two baths during my stay, so the fact that I don’t have to dry and reuse wet towels is amazing.
The hot springs are about 40 degrees, not too hot, allowing for relaxation.
I had dinner in my room with some takeout.
The room's TV has apps, so if you have a Netflix account, you can watch it directly on the TV, which is convenient.
The much-anticipated breakfast is a half-buffet style where you can choose between Japanese or Western dishes.
Not only are the rice and miso soup in the Japanese breakfast refillable, but the grilled fish is as well. I recommend the Japanese food!
The buffet corner is also substantial, and the croissants are a must-try! While there are mini croissants, make sure to eat the larger ones.
After eating, I took a walk around the grounds. There was water reflecting Inuyama Castle, which was beautiful.
Inuyama Castle is located on the west side of the hotel, and since it's backlit in the evening, it looks better in the morning.
After a short break, I went back to the hot springs and then to the nearby Yurakuen.
Staying at Indigo makes the adult admission fee of 1200 yen to Yurakuen free, which is a great deal!
This time, I stayed with my 3-year-old son, and they provided a step stool, toilet seat, bed guard, and amenities for him.
Children aged 3 and under can sleep with their parents for free, and breakfast is free as well!
I would love to stay at this hotel again as a reward trip for myself.
Experiences during the trip
The nearby Yurakuen is a perfect place for a leisurely stroll.
Looking at the beautiful garden is truly healing.
Although the castle town is close and recommended, I think it is also nice to spend time relaxing.
