Tsukioka Hotel
forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 4.14 out of 5 (1,725 reviews). Guests praise how much there is to do - the kids' space, table tennis, karaoke and fireworks events - and several report that their children were thrilled and never got bored. The experience of grilling your own rice crackers is also popular with children, and one review reported that the open-air bath pleased their children. On the other hand, the communal bath and open-air bath are small compared with other inns and can get crowded, which is worth keeping in mind.
