Tokyo Kids Castle | 130 ㎡ | 20 minutes from Shinjuku | 1 minute from station

Hello, I am the owner. The reason I created Tokyo Kids Castle is: 1. Provide a more comfortable travel and play environment for children and their families around the world 2. Don't let the coronavirus win, send out a spirit of challenge, courage, and excitement 3. To have people from all over the world come to the local area and shopping district, and have them experience and spend money We would like children and their families from all over the world to come. We also have two elementary school children. During the coronavirus pandemic, we tend to stay at home and not have many opportunities to go out and play, so from that experience, I thought if there was a place like this, I could take them there to play with peace of mind, and that's how this project started. I hope that people around the world will be able to challenge themselves to do more new things, enjoy more of what they love, and have more fun and exciting days. * Important points to note * * If we confirm that more than the number of people booked are using (entering) the room, we will charge an additional fee of 10,000 yen per person per day. In addition, no visitors other than guests are allowed. Please be sure to let us know before check-in if the number of guests changes.

Castle Town Machiya Private Guest House DAIJI Consecutive night discount

I have lived in Iga Ueno for a few years. Growing up in a residential area, living in a castle town was a new experience for me. This land with its old-fashioned townscape and famous water is hot in summer and cold in winter. But that's why the rice, vegetables, and meat are also delicious. There are many areas where nature remains, but few areas where the old townscape remains intact. I want to preserve this townscape. To that end, I want many people to experience a nostalgic way of life and culture. As such a place, we renovated a row house left by our ancestors and opened it as the Daiji, a soy sauce shop that had closed. You are always welcome! Stay in a beautifully renovated traditional Japanese wooden house with tatami flooring and futons, plus modern facilities for self-catering, within easy reach of Kyoto and Osaka airports.

Nishimura-Tei Hanare ― 100-year-old traditional house with kitchen & dining

Nishimura Residence is an old-fashioned Nara-machiya that has been standing on a piece of Nara-machi for more than 100 years. I was a “grandmother” for a long time when I was a child. In Nara Town, there is a pleasant despicable feeling that never changes. "I want to be filled with this pleasant contempt even for future generations." With that in mind, I took care of the empty Nishimura Residence. - Nishimura-Tei is originally a traditional Japanese house which has been here in Nara-machi town over 100 years, where my grandmother used to live in. My mother and I decided to renovate this house to preserve and pass down the virtue of good old days in Japan to the next generation as well as to show it to you.
