Points That Make Hotels Great for Families

Spacious Rooms

Options like baby cots, extra beds, or connecting rooms allow you to choose the best setup for your family.

Kids’ Play Areas

Hotels with kids’ spaces or play areas ensure children won’t get bored. For example, MIMARU Kyoto, which we’ll introduce later, even offers Pokémon-themed rooms!

Meals

It’s reassuring when hotels provide kids’ menus, baby food, or allergy-friendly options. Having a variety of cuisines, like Western dishes in addition to Japanese food, can make meals more enjoyable for kids. Buffets are also a hit with children!

Convenient Location

Easy access to tourist spots and nearby convenience stores or restaurants is very helpful. Since trains can get crowded, especially in the mornings, staying near a major train station is highly recommended.
