HOTEL GRANVIA OKAYAMA
forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 4.41 out of 5 (6,480 reviews). Some rooms are spacious enough to fit two extra beds even for a party of four, which suggests the hotel is easy to use as a family. Guests who used the pool describe it as pleasant, though some note that although the breakfast buffet has a wide variety, restocking could not keep up at busy times and some items were unavailable, so timing may need some care.

The standard family floors on floors 8 through 11 have family rooms for groups and families of 3 or 4. There are no night tables between the beds, so the beds can be pushed together, which suits families who want to sleep close to a young child. The beds are France Bed models 110 cm wide, with only the innermost bed measuring 100 cm wide. Note that the 17 sq m semi-double room is not set up to allow co-sleeping, so if you are staying with a baby or toddler as a party of two, check the room type.
