Hotels in Japan for Family Travellers |
|
|
Ready to bring the whole family to Japan?
There is a common misperception amongst Malaysians that
Japanese hotels rarely have big individual rooms that can accommodate
more than 3 pax at a time.
Considering more private tours and family groups are making their way into Japan now that the border has reopened, some local hotels and ryokans have started to organize more family-friendly rooms.These can go up to 4 pax or more in one room!
Some have even gotten around to releasing family promotion plans and family friendly attractions to entertain groups of all ages!
