Tateshina Grand Hotel Takinoyu

The kids' park, Onsen, and meals were excellent.

We stayed at the Property with the purpose of visiting the kids' park, as strongly requested by our two children. Although we were concerned about snowfall due to the season, there was little snow, and we were able to drive safely. We stayed in a Room on the Sky Comfort Floor. The Room was spacious, and the children were excitedly exploring it. The sofa was large enough for two adults to lie down comfortably. The kids' park was well-designed, with plenty of activities even for children who did not meet the height requirements. There were many spots where adults could sit and watch over the children, allowing us to relax. However, it was a bit disappointing that there was no staff intervention when some children were playing too enthusiastically, such as running in the wrong direction or staying in one spot without moving forward. That said, the materials used in the athletic area were not hard, so the risk of injury seemed low. The meals were excellent. The kids' corner offered a variety of child-friendly menu items, which made our children very happy. We were surprised to find that soft-serve ice cream was available both at night and in the morning for dessert. In the morning, the rice balls were delicious and came in a variety of flavors, with a convenient size that made them easy to enjoy. The Onsen, especially the open-air bath, was a big hit with the entire family. Although we got a bit lost on the way to the riverside open-air bath, it was nice to discover various enjoyable spots along the way. The staff's service was very prompt, and we appreciated how quickly they provided slippers and yukata jackets (hanten?) for the children. During meals, they also cleared the plates from the table as needed, which was very helpful. We had a wonderful time during our one-night, two-day stay as a family. We hope to stay again during the fishing season. Thank you very much!
