this is what it's like to stay at
Legoland Japan Resort
[Music]
today we are bringing Grandpa and
Grandma we just spent oshogatsu the New
Years with them and they're joining us
on this trip so it's kind of like us
staying at the hotel as well as going
into the amusement park let's go
so the Legoland Japan Resort is located
in Nagoya aichi prefecture about a 25
minute train ride from Nagoya station
and the Legoland hotel sits conveniently
right in front of the theme park and to
make things just a bit easier on us we
decided to check in before going into
the park
so what happened Michael the chicken is
from four so we need to come back and
get the card of the party so apparently
they have a playground inside of the
hotel so even after we come back and
maybe like eating like gotta kill time
to just go there so if you're a Legoland
fan this is the hotel reception you've
been looking for aside from the all Lego
theme there's a pool of Lego blocks in
the main lobby area perfect for kids to
play and engage while the parents check
in at the counter I'll be honest I hope
you love this area so much that he
didn't even want to leave to go to the
park you know these are called Lego and
here we go Legoland First tip is to buy
tickets online on their website in
advance as you'll be able to save quite
a bit obviously the price will vary
during peak times in the off season but
in our case we save 1200 yen per adult
it's a dragon
yeah
so this being our first time we were
completely blown away with how high
quality the Lego models were they used
more than 17 million Lego pieces
building more than 10 000 Lego models
throughout the park and despite a two
and a half year old son never really
playing with Legos until just now he
thoroughly enjoyed seeing all the
colorful life-sized characters
[Music]
food right now before we hit all of the
other Amusements
foreign
to go to the chicken dinner Place let's
see how it is
and this is the kit set for Wolfie so as
expected all of the food items were very
Lego themed and season four younger
palettes so we'll be enjoy the food just
fine but for adults Michael how's it
good it's good we'll be yeah you like
the best we like the chicken nuggets
fries I'll leave Michael what do you
like it's cute
Michael of course ordered her favorite
churross
[Music]
I should also mention that the park
technically prohibits outside food and
drinks except for baby food and small
drinks that can fit in a bag luckily
there are five sit-down restaurants and
several food stands spread throughout
the park so finding a place to get your
grub on won't really be an issue what do
you want to ride
you wanna ride the merry-go-round
[Music]
so as mentioned earlier Wolfie is two
and a half and a little over 90
centimeters tall which surprisingly
meets the requirements for many of the
rides here starting with the
Merry-Go-Round and the imagination
celebration in the bricktopia area
[Music]
also Splash battle a boat ride in the
pirate Shores area
surprisingly it's not so crowded here
there's like pretty much no lines at all
whoa we got in line but movie wasn't
feeling it anymore for some reason so he
had to jump shift I'm sure other parents
can relate to this one my little dude
even got to go on his first ride by
himself on beetle bounce in adventure
area well truth is the park staff
wouldn't let me go on the ride with him
luckily Wolfie was all good to go solo
[Music]
definitely though his favorite ride was
the cargo ACE also in the adventure area
he loved it so much that we went back
several times
is that fun yeah
unfortunately the park didn't really
have any lines for this one so we could
just get right back on compared to usj
and Disney and Japan it felt like there
were a lot more rides for two-year-olds
so maybe worth considering if you have
younger ones that was fun so hair
raising oh and he got to watch a 3D
movie show too quick tip don't drop your
3D glasses on the ground before the show
starts I spent a good part of the movie
feeling it on the floor for mine
another pleasant surprise for the park
is that they're quite a bit of
playground scattered throughout for kids
that run around and play no need to wait
in line so you can just let your kids
enjoy be careful though it was hard
getting her own son to move on to the
next area
[Music]
there's also several shops scattered
throughout and it may be fun to let your
little one choose an accessory to help
them feel like they're part of the park
[Music]
so we've got a little bit tired all the
way down here towards the end of this
like where the city is so I had to go
and get a stroller for him and now we
got a stroller but yeah I recommend
getting a stroller in the beginning if
you don't want to tear your kid around
the entire time
so I think we're in the Egyptian area
right now it's actually pretty cool
so Michael's parents have to drive back
home so we have to say goodbye for now
but if you want to see how we spent a
few days just before this check out our
New Year's video with my in-laws
[Music]
how you feeling Michael I'm freezing it
was okay
it's so cool I want to go into the one
of the indoor really cold
are they a cold face
[Music]
so Legoland has three workshops to build
Legos all inside of the park and this
one rebuild the world is the only one
that takes walk-ins again perfect for
all ages kids can get super focused on
their creation while parents can take a
short break or if like me also get super
focused
[Music]
so this place is quite interesting
because you have about 30 minutes to
build whatever you want and Wolfie is
just having fun picking out the pieces
and it looks like he's just picking on
just like some odd pieces like
windshields things that are transparent
instead of just like a Lego blocks to
build something but you just really
enjoyed it on this entire time
we've been working so
okay
what do you think about dinosaurs
[Music]
[Applause]
and look at him clean up I wonder where
he gets that from daddy made that do you
like it
[Music]
I guess it's getting a little bit dark
we actually didn't hit up the entire
park there's just like so much to do we
don't have time um we're gonna go head
back to the hotel and show you the room
that we're staying at
[Music]
but on our way back to the hotel we
decided to stop by mini land which was
unexpectedly amazing made with Lego
blocks that nailed many of Japan's
famous landmarks I found nasaksa Shibuya
it's kushima Tokyo Station and a bit
more there's even other countries which
we didn't have time to fully see
[Music]
one impression I got though is that many
of the attractions are more designed for
summer or warm weather maybe that
explains why we didn't see so many lines
today worth noting I guess they have
squid server and this playground that
becomes a small water play area in the
summer also Splash battle we almost
wrote earlier oh in this one where you
can raise the boat you just made
[Music]
so the Park closed at 5 pm today which
is a bit earlier than we expected but I
guess it allows us more time to enjoy
the Legoland hotel if you're not staying
here though come early to maximize your
time
[Music]
where do you want to sleep Wolfie you
wanna get on pirate
so this is a pretty fun room I didn't
expect it to be this piratey but outdone
themselves and you really feel like you
are in a pirate's room kids would love
it Wolfie really likes it he loves the
bunk beds even though I think it may be
still a little bit too high for him I
think if you had two kids they'd really
really appreciate it and the bed it's
wide enough itself so you can have you
know three people like two adults and a
kid in the middle I don't know what the
the room arrangements are but you can
probably feel like five people in this
room alone
[Music]
you're a pirate man you're a pirate
I kind of like the details here as well
you have pillows you have just like this
rope hanging from the curtain area the
Shelf even has like ropes hanging down
the Shelf even like the carpet is kind
of a like a treasure map pretty cool
oh and this is Wolfie's first bunk bed
experience
he wants me to stay
before I continue I want to give a quick
shout out to the sponsor of this video

[Music]
it's pretty cool that they provided
Legos right here but I think it's also
pretty Keen that they provided like the
bigger size Legos on the little tiny
ones just in case you have the really
really young kids with you
what did you say I know like they have a
restaurant inside it's a lot more
expensive than most super super cheap oh
what are you building
the highlight of Legoland hotel is
definitely the pirate themed playground
on the second floor again they have this
Lego pool for kids to enjoy and just
beyond it there's a fun jungle gym
is this your ship
like no we made a ship right now good
job dude
[Music]
so for parents wanting to take a break
from the hotel room this area could
provide a few hours of fun especially
for the younger ones
the wolf is not really into playing on
Nets yet as he often gets stuck but this
one he was able to manage I suppose it's
designed for smaller kids like him and
parents tip there's a Skyline bar right
next to the playground if you're trying
to get your drink on just check the
counter as it's often closed midweek
during non-peak Seasons another tip for
those that decide to eat outside of the
hotel although there are quite a few
restaurants they often close extremely
early like an hour after park closure in
RK 6 PM just before dinner
[Music]
so our hotel set included a
complimentary breakfast buffet but I
should note that you're required to book
online the time of your breakfast a
small little tip if you arrive exactly
at the time of your booking like
everyone else the lines are quite packed
but if you happen to arrive 10 to 15
minutes late I noticed there were almost
no lines oh and the hotel has a kids
Buffet area as well
[Music]
so here we are at breakfast and the
selection is not that bad it's pretty
good for kids there is kind of a wide
variety of meat selection foreign
Western as well as you know just
Japanese and breakfast also there's like
some fruits and stuff that Wolfie can
eat so yeah it's fairly balanced
breakfast plus the atmosphere itself is
pretty cool what do you think of the
food Wolfie
okay
[Music]
one last tip for those looking to buy
souvenirs the park obviously has more
shopping options but if you're pressed
for time and want to maximize your play
at the park or you simply forget to get
a souvenir before the park closes the
hotel has its own souvenir shop which
remains open after park close this is
what we did okay so that's our trip here
