A mom who does her best every day. If you want to relax once in a while, why not stay at a onsen ryokan in Hakone? It's easy to access from Tokyo, so it's also recommended for families who don't want to go far when their children are young for a onsen trip.
For families who want to relax in Hakone, choosing a room with an open-air bath or a Japanese-style room, soaking in onsen, eating a meal, and just lounging around is the perfect way to stay at home. It's a great way for moms to relieve their daily fatigue, and it's also a great way for children to get their first experience at onsen. In this article, we'll introduce some recommended onsen ryokan where you can feel at ease even with children.
Tokinoyu Setsugetsuka Gora Station. There are a wide range of room types for solo travel, family travel, and group travel. Although it is not onsen, all rooms are equipped with a cypress open-air bath. You can enjoy the bath whenever you like without worrying about other people's eyes. The large public bath and three private open-air baths are onsen. It's free, so let's enjoy the private open-air bath without entering the family.
An inn with an open-air bath and a Japanese-style room is a great help when traveling with small onsen. The tatami flooring makes it safe for babies who are crawling. For a family of three, we recommend the guest room with an open-air bath and a Japanese-Western style room of 36 square meters. The open-air bath on the terrace is not onsen, so couples can take turns enjoying onsen in the large public bath, or use a private bath.
Dinner and breakfast are served at the "Hanatori" restaurant (meal). A children's lunch is available for infants for both dinner and breakfast. Children will be delighted with the fried foods and meats that they like. For children of elementary school age and older, the same menu as for adults is available, but requests can be made with advance reservations. For adults, we offer kaiseki cuisine that makes the most of seasonal ingredients. Depending on the season, you may be able to enjoy a menu featuring Wagyu beef shabu-shabu or sushi.â
