Perfect Family Onsen Stay with Baby - Ryotei Hanayura We stayed here with our 9-month-old baby and it was amazing! Finding a Japanese onsen hotel that actually welcomes families with young kids is super rare, but this place was perfect for us. What Made It SpecialPrivate Onsen in Room - This was the best part! Having our own hot spring bath in the room meant we could relax anytime without worrying about disturbing other guests or dealing with public bath schedules. The water comes directly from the hot spring and was hot but comfortable. The private outdoor setting was awesome! Large Public Baths - The main onsen facilities were beautiful with different types of baths . Open from 2pm to 9:30am next day, so lots of flexibility. FDining - They do kaiseki-style meals at breakfast and dinner where you pick your breakfast and dinner time slots at check-in. The food was excellent and they accommodated our dietary needs without any fuss. When we needed to change our dinner time one night, they were totally fine with it. Turndown Service - While we were at dinner, housekeeping would set up our futon beds. Such a nice touch that we didn't have to worry about room setup with a tired baby. Family-Friendly Features• Free baby equipment rental: bath chairs for onsen, regular high chairs, diaper bins, changing mats•Staff spoke English and were super helpful with baby needs• Tons of parking space (no stress with car seat and stroller)• Traditional Japanese room with tatami but baby-safe The Room Traditional Japanese style with wooden floors and tatami areas. Mini-fridge was great for baby formula and snacks. Room slippers provided. Everything was clean and well-maintained. Our room had 5 futon beds and a private open-air bath. Location & Practical StuffLocated in Noboribetsu Onsen, Hokkaido. Ryotei Hanayura is part of Toho Resort group - you can check out their other properties at tohoresort.com/english/. Easy parking with multiple levels. Clear signage in multiple languages. 24-hour front desk if you need anything. Bottom LineThis is probably one of the few authentic luxury onsen ryokans in Japan that truly welcomes families with babies. The private onsen alone makes it worth it, but the flexible service and genuine hospitality made our stay memorable. We'll definitely be back as our little one grows up. Perfect for: Families with young children wanting authentic Japanese luxury onsen experience Not ideal for: People looking for adults-only quiet retreatTip:
