forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 4.03 out of 5 (6,054 reviews). One family with a 3-year-old said they chose this hotel because it has a playroom, and guests praise having a play space for children on site. The lounge serves juice and ice cream, and the wide range of dishes at the buffet is well received. On the other hand, one guest was disappointed that the lounge drinks included no flavors such as lemon or cola that a 3-year-old could drink.

Overview
Ooedo Onsen Monogatari Premium Hotel New Shiobara is a hot-spring hotel with 271 rooms in total, standing along the Hoki River in the Shiobara Onsen hot-spring district of Tochigi. The communal baths are split between the Main Building and Yusenkyo, linked by a private passage so you can go from one bath to the next inside the property, and the spring water is a sodium chloride and bicarbonate spring. The guest rooms are mainly Japanese-style tatami rooms and Japanese-Western rooms, ranging from 10 to 30 tatami mats and sleeping anywhere from 3 to 12 guests. Breakfast and dinner are both buffets in the restaurant, where children's tableware, chairs and baby food are available. The after-bath lounge has a kids corner with a slide and a trampoline.

The Standard Japanese-style room without an indoor bath (Yusenkyo) is 10 tatami mats, the Standard Japanese-style room for 8 guests with an indoor bath (Main Building) is 17 tatami mats, and the Standard Japanese-style room for 12 guests with an indoor bath (Main Building) is 30 tatami mats, with capacity ranging from 3 to 12 guests depending on the type. Among the Japanese-Western rooms, the Standard Japanese-Western Twin with shower only (Main Building) is 20.6 sq m, the Standard Japanese-Western Twin with an indoor bath (Main Building) is 22.6 sq m, the Standard Japanese-Western Twin for 6 guests with an indoor bath (Main Building) is 26.5 sq m, and the Standard Japanese-Western Twin for 3 guests without an indoor bath (Main Building) is 36.4 sq m. The Standard Japanese Bed Twin for 4 guests with an indoor bath (Main Building), which has beds set on the tatami, is 36.8 sq m, a good option when space is your priority with young children. For wheelchair users there is the Superior Barrier-Free Japanese-Western room with an indoor bath (Yusenkyo). There are also suites such as the Suite Japanese-Western Twin with an open-air bath (Hoo), though the baths in the guest rooms are not fed by the hot spring. Humidifiers are available to borrow, and only some rooms have a toilet with a washing function.
Dining
Breakfast and dinner are both buffets in the restaurant; there is no in-room dining. Dinner is served from 5 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. and breakfast from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. The restaurant has children's tableware and chairs, and baby food is available: just ask a staff member. The a la carte snow crab and king crab are served only to guests of elementary school age and above, so they cannot be ordered for younger children. Information on accommodating food allergies is provided.
Baths and Onsen
There are communal baths in both the Main Building and Yusenkyo, and Yusenkyo has the semi-open-air bath Shichigen Fudo no Yu, a standing bath about 110 cm deep, and a sauna. Getting to Yusenkyo means crossing the river by a private passage, so going from bath to bath with a young child involves a walk. The spring water is a sodium chloride and bicarbonate spring. Children aged 7 and over or 120 cm and taller use the bath for their own gender. The standing bath is deep, so take care if you go in with a small child. Whether children who are not yet out of diapers may get into the baths is not stated, so please confirm with the hotel.
Places to Play
Along with the kids corner in the after-bath lounge, the property has bowling, an arcade corner, a table-tennis corner and a manga corner. There are also two spots inside the building with photo trick art that uses optical illusions to appear three-dimensional. These places for children are all gathered indoors, so they can be enjoyed whatever the weather.
Family-Friendly Features
The changing room of the women's communal bath has a baby bed and a diaper bin, and the communal baths stock children's items including a baby bath and baby soap.

From October 1, 2026 to February 28, 2027 the hotel runs an all-inclusive period, during which alcohol at dinner, drinks in the lounge and charges for services around the property are largely included in the room rate (this may be extended). Children aged 3 and over who have not yet started elementary school fall into a paid category that includes meals and futon bedding, and for a child under 3, an extra futon is provided for an additional 2,200 yen, with advance notice required. Junior high school students and older pay a bathing tax of 150 yen separately. Mikihouse baby and kids' amenities can be purchased by adding them as an option when you book.
