Overview
Dogo Onsen Hotel Patio Dogo stands directly in front of the Dogo Onsen Honkan bathhouse. All rooms are Western-style with Simmons beds and a combined bath-and-toilet unit. Co-sleeping is free for up to one child per bed, but no additional bedding and no crib are available. Babies and toddlers can be accommodated only on certain room-only plans, and elementary school children and older who need a bed are booked at the adult rate. There is no onsen or communal bath on the property; the Dogo Onsen Honkan bathhouse and the annex baths Tsubaki no Yu and Asuka no Yu Onsen are a 3-minute walk away.
Rooms
The main room types are singles (16.2 sq m, with one bed 140 cm wide by 197 cm long, for 1 guest) and twins (24 sq m, with two beds 123 cm wide by 197 cm long, for 1 to 2 guests), along with deluxe doubles (bed 160 cm wide by 197 cm long) and the 40 sq m Patio J Suite. Every room has Simmons beds. The 24 sq m twin rooms can also take 3 guests with an extra bed added. Co-sleeping is allowed for up to one child per bed at no additional charge, but no extra bedding or equipment is provided. Elementary school children and older who need a bed are booked as adults, and in that case children's yukata and children's meal menus are not available either. There is no crib, so families traveling with babies and toddlers should check what equipment they need to bring.
Dining
Breakfast is a Japanese set meal served only at the first-floor restaurant Sushimaru, open from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. How many meals a child receives follows the meal conditions of the accommodation plan. Babies and toddlers are accepted free of charge only on room-only plans with no meals and no bedding; on other plans, such as those with breakfast, babies and toddlers cannot be accommodated at all. Food allergies are accommodated as far as possible, but you must inquire in advance, and catered box meals cannot be accommodated.
Baths
There is no onsen or communal bath on the property, and every room has a combined bath-and-toilet unit. The Dogo Onsen Honkan bathhouse is directly in front of the hotel, and the annex baths Tsubaki no Yu and Asuka no Yu Onsen are a 3-minute walk away. To bathe together with a baby or toddler, you can either use the bath unit in your room or visit one of the public bathhouses.
Family-friendly notes
Co-sleeping is free for up to one child, but because there is no crib or additional bedding, families with babies and toddlers need to prepare what they bring. The hotel has no barrier-free facilities, though a wheelchair is available to borrow. Stays by junior high school students or younger without an accompanying guardian are not accepted, and minors staying on their own must submit a consent form for minors signed by a person with parental authority.
Access
The hotel is a 5-minute walk from Dogo Onsen Station, directly opposite the north side of the Dogo Onsen Honkan bathhouse; follow the stone-paved path between the bathhouse and the hotel. Parking is first come, first served, cannot be reserved, and costs 800 yen per night. The adjacent automated multi-level parking garage takes vehicles up to 1.55 m in height, and vehicles that exceed this are directed to the outdoor lot at the top of the slope.
