this is what it's like staying at a 1200
luxury Japanese Hotel
[Music]
decided to take a family trip down here
in the easy area just about three hours
south of Tokyo and since we're only
staying one night we decided to stay at
a luxury hotel and we wanted to share
that experience with all of you so let
me start in the beginning where they
picked us up at the station
so after an Express Train ride just
under three hours from Tokyo we were
picked up by the hotel staff waiting for
us at the gate luckily the shuttle ride
itself was less than five minutes from
the station
so this is our Japanese style ryokan
Hotel spot for today
perched right in front of the beach
offering a Serene atmosphere with a
soothing sound of the ocean waves it's
known for its exceptional dining
experience top level service and stylish
guest rooms with private owns and baths
so we knew we couldn't go wrong while
standard rooms are available at a rate
of around 26 500 yen per person we
decided to go all in for their 160 000
Yen twelve hundred dollar luxury Suite
with an in-room private Onsen bath to
see what it's all about
[Music]
okay so we are just arriving at the
lobby area right now we are waiting to
check in and this place looks pretty
amazing so far
oh nice they're letting us choose the
Yukata don't mind if we do
[Music]
it
what's pretty dope is that we have an
in-room check-in so we don't have to
wait in the lobby common and luxury real
guns makes life just a bit easier when
you're with a two-year-old okay so she
just brought us into the room and we're
actually doing the check-in process here
which is nice um and then she's just
gonna go get some drinks right now
oh we have a little accident Michael and
are kind of used to it but I'm sure it's
annoying for some people especially when
they don't have kids luckily the staff
here are super understanding and
graciously helped us clean up seriously
it's these small things that we truly
appreciate when staying at a hotel Japan
and my personal experience given its
omotanashi culture can't be beat
so I think it's going to take a little
bit more time to check in so let me tour
the room
the room itself is quite spacious in
Japan at 120 square meters 1300 square
feet which includes a Japanese style the
Tommy room living room with an ocean
view which gives the room an even more
expansive feel
this is the bedroom area which has these
twinito and twins
so one of the issues always is having
two separate beds but it looks like at
this place you can put the beds together
[Music]
no more monkeys jumping on the bed now
Wolfie can jump to his heart's content
oh and the side cabinets have adjustable
lights and reading lights
the changing room full is applied with
amenities
[Music]
oh sweet the bathroom has its own TV
built into the wall you can take a bath
and watch TV at the same time
[Music]
if you take a bath what do you want to
watch
[Music]
Pikachu
oh damn this space egg looking thing is
Toto's new toilet washlet apparently it
has the latest and greatest
self-cleaning technology and some other
unique features I think Michael and
Wolfie are outside to see what they're
doing
what are you guys doing
[Music]
definitely the highlight of the room a
real deal on Zen bath built into the
room also known as the rotembodo in
Japanese we've stayed in a room with a
rotemboda before but this for sure is
the biggest bath yet at most litty and
Wolfie is having fun already
I love it it's so stationed it's like
super clean and I'm a fairly very
renovated right it's so new in me and
yeah I like it so there's a bunch of
panels right here let's see what's going
on
[Music]
nice they've also got a decent drink bar
and even juice for Wolfie
foreign
[Music]
that's all we were looking for
whoa did it actually have a beer glass
or maybe there's one somewhere around
but let's stick with the wine glass for
now
[Music]
that hits the spot okay you want to
drink with Daddy for your glass here too
so usually in previous Hotel videos I've
done this by myself but this time I've
got a partner in crime that's it come
bye
Yay good job
so this hotel room itself is pretty
impressive it has an amazing view just
right in front of the ocean and then
right here to the side of us you have
living area but you can also just lay
out for tones and then there's two beds
right here so you can potentially have I
don't know four six eight people in this
room if you like really really wanted to
pack it I don't know if you actually can
definitely comfortable for the three of
us one of the nice things is that it
does have the Onsen outside if you
really want to you can go upstairs there
is a public Onsen you can enjoy but
since we are a family and Wolfie it's
harder to go to like Onsen and do that
kind of thing with him so I'd rather
just get one that's like built into the
room pretty perfect because it's right
in front of the ocean so yeah this place
is amazing so now we just kind of are
gonna chill and then food is gonna be
coming at 5 30.
I'm not looking at you at night
hey don't blame me
we're going with two hands
[Music]
okay dinner time it's quite nice how the
server quietly prepares the table while
allowing us to relax in the room
so the food has just actually arrived
and it looks amazing one of the nicest
things about a Japanese hotel and going
to a luxury hotel is that they serve the
food right inside of your hotel room
I love you too tonight she's serving a
traditional Japanese course and
throughout the entire dinner she'll
expertly explain each intricate dish
which allows you to truly appreciate and
get a sense of how much time and
preparation went into each one and the
highlight of Japanese Cuisine is not
only that it's deliciously balanced but
it's also A Feast for the eyes the
Cuisines delicate and beautiful
presentation is achieved with extensive
use of seasonal ingredients often
including flowers and leaves as
decorative elements
[Music]
so Japanese hotels typically use local
ingredients and Specialties in their
courses so in this case we were
presented with an assortment of local
seafood which we are more than happy to
enjoy this is worth noting though if
you're planning on staying at real guns
all throughout Japan
and so this is our bee right here let's
put some lemon I have a little butter as
well you can see the oils dripping let
me just take a bite
hmm I can't believe how soft and buttery
it is sometimes when people cook alabi
it's just a little bit too like tough
and hard but this is so soft and tender
this is amazing and then just paired for
the butter and the lemon this brings out
all of the flavors over here the clams
and it comes in this little bowl let's
pour it here a little bit
just like so bam
so much a mummy in the soup
[Music]
look at all of this fresh ship served on
a boat that is amazing it even says the
Guzman and it says Maru which is like
ship the Guzman it is literally as big
as my body so this is like super fresh
Wasabi you can see that they've already
like kind of pre-cut it here for you
so here you go this is what fresh Wasabi
looks like whoa it's getting to my eyes
just a little bit let's taste this
oh
that'll clean you out that's amazing all
right so we got the Maguro right here
[Music]
that is so fresh seriously there is
nothing like making your own Wasabi this
is awesome so one thing about this place
is that they're known for food but like
more so than that amount of food you get
if you have more of like a western
stomach and want to have just a little
bit more than usual then this is like
probably one of the places that you
should go because the servings are just
so much
following that beautifully ginormous
bowl of fish broiled King midi Red Sea
brim was served in a rich sweet and
savory sauce they also serve kamameshi
which is rice cooked in an iron pot
season also with King midi amongst other
delectable ingredients
foreign
let me not forget that Teflon grilled
black-haired wagy B from Yamagata which
was perfectly marbled and melted in my
mouth my only wish is that I had more of
it and the course was finished off with
fresh strawberry and strawberry mousse
so before we continue one I want to give
a quick shout out to the sponsor of this

[Music]
oh you got this yeah one thing I should
note though since Yukon serve a course
meal it often takes a few hours to enjoy
all of the dishes which may board little
kids like Wolfie so we brought along a
puzzle for him to play while we enjoy
the food
[Music]
okay so that was dinner pretty amazing
there's just so much stuff from the
appetizer to the wagyu to the awabi and
then now dessert this has all been
brilliant
thank you
and finally Onsen time
since this is natural owns and water
flowing directly from the spring it's
often scolding hot when it comes out so
it's best to check the temperature of
the bath before getting in and usually
you can simply adjust the temperature by
adding cold water
so this is stunning you have the latest
crashing right there we're having an
Olden bath just outside after dinner
this couldn't be any more perfect
literally if you are looking for a place
to get out of Tokyo maybe a couple hours
south of Tokyo and just take a little
one day trip so this is perfect or you
can even say longer especially if you're
with friends
oh
come on
it's like a samurai
I'm good happy with food service rooms
and everything is really clear
Okay so
looks like Wolfie decided to get out of
his zukata wasn't feeling it
so one thing I just wanted to say is
that this is actually a really good
Escape for our family sometimes we don't
get a lot of these kind of weekend
excursions because we're just like in
Tokyo busy with work and all the other
stuff that's going on so once in a while
it is nice to get out it may be a little
bit expensive but you know we don't
really do this so much so it is nice to
be able to do this let me know in the
comments if you guys want to see more
videos like this or if you guys want to
see like me go to cheaper hotels what
area or if you want me to go to even
more expensive hotels and show you that
let me know in the comments
[Music]
thank you
[Music]
foreign
[Music]
good morning y'all we slept pretty good
today
um it is about I think 7 15 7 30
breakfast should be coming at eight so I
have just a little bit of time before
the food comes so I think we just need
to you know do our morning routine
okay okay you want to go see over there
your diaper
so although Wolfie is still two years
old he'll be turning three a month from
now if you've seen her previous Hotel
videos whether it be the hotel in the
clouds Disney Resort or even Nintendo
Hotel you'll notice how much he's grown
it's amazing to see how far he's come
and we appreciate all of you letting us
share these moments
[Music]
beautiful huh it's so pretty it smells
nice
it's me
this will be sleepy you're sleeping
[Music]
now time for the in-room breakfast
take a look at the stunning presentation
a traditional Japanese breakfast
typically features an array of small
dishes each meant to complement the
perfectly cooked white rice
[Music]
so look at this stunning breakfast there
is so much right here so much going on
and look we even have a boatload of fish
right here this is amazing who wouldn't
want to wake up to this I just noticed
the ship has Whoopi's name on it this
morning
and just look at this this is what you
get for breakfast look at all of these
little dishes that you get to try if
you're staying in one of Japan's
Beachside areas you may also have the
opportunity to try himono a local
delicacy of sun-dried fish which helps
to infuse it with a rich Umami flavor
and then you get a full soup
[Music]
it's like a bean curd with all this
vegetable goodness inside and then Umami
Rich Dashi they're gonna have a bug in
the clouded thing wow to be honest with
you I don't even know if I can eat all
this food because it's a lot for
breakfast I mean they're really living
up to their name here just look how much
food there is do you guys think you can
eat this much food for breakfast and it
was considered that they prepared rice
and miso for Wolfie
[Music]
check out if you actually want to go
check out the Owens and upstairs and
show you guys what it's like
so unfortunately I can't show you the
public bath area well for obvious
reasons but here's some quick photos
from their website pretty stunning so if
you don't get the in-room Onsen you can
still own 10 in style here luckily I ran
into one of the staff who was super kind
to show us the private onsense
apparently three private outdoor baskets
can reserve for free
and even private Spa rooms that are paid
reservations which he explained are so
popular that they're always booked
either way the Owens and Facilities here
are fantastic well worth considering
especially for couples
[Music]
[Applause]
ryokan also has a small shop
conveniently at the entrance so you can
pick up a souvenir or two to bring back
home for yourself or for family and
