forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 4.14 out of 5 (1,987 reviews). Some parents say their children could spend hours in A-So-Boya, the basement play area, which was a great help, and that the dining venue also has a play area, so they could eat at a relaxed pace while the children played. Reviews also mention that the communal bath and the pools are connected, so it is easy to go straight into the onsen after swimming. On the other hand, some guests on multi-night stays note that the dinner and breakfast buffets stayed the same each day and they grew tired of them.
