It was a very enjoyable stay for our kindergarten-aged child. Both dinner and breakfast were full of foods kids love. They had fun making their own ice cream, and they could also bring chocolate syrup and chocolate toppings from a separate area to create their own pancakes. (We wished there had been pancake syrup in the kids’ corner.) The Onsen temperature was set low for children (it might feel lukewarm for adults), and our child stayed in for about an hour. The only downside was that the photos in the information showed a drum washing machine, but there wasn’t one in reality. Other than that, they offer lots of children’s activities, so I think it’s an excellent Hotel for families with kids. We’d like to come again in winter.

There was a shuttle bus from Echigo-Yuzawa to the Hotel, so getting there was easy. The 24-hour open-air bath was great—I could use it after the event without worrying about the time. The Facility were also good, with ReFa shampoo and hair dryers, and it was helpful to have a convenience store inside the Hotel. However, the air conditioning in the guest room didn’t work very well, so it might be hard to sleep on very hot midsummer days.
