Looking for hotels or ryokans in Ikaho Onsen with a game corner kids will love?
I'm planning a family trip to Ikaho Onsen. Do any hotels or ryokans there have a game corner (or small arcade) to keep the kids entertained? We're not picky about the types of games—anything that helps prevent boredom would be great!

- I highly recommend Hotel Kogure for families. It’s packed with facilities for everyone to enjoy. They even have a cool retro game corner.
Plus, the gift shop on the first floor sells merchandise for 'Gunma-chan' (Gunma Prefecture's popular mascot), which my kids were delighted to see.
But the absolute highlight is the onsen (hot spring bath). It's said to be one of the largest in the entire area. There are so many different types of baths that it honestly felt like a hot spring theme park! My kids were ecstatic, shouting, "It's huge!" Our whole family left completely satisfied.Mamagon50 (Early 50s Female)'s answer (Posted on:2025/10/30)

A "Kids' Space" that's safe for the little ones, too!
- Hotel Kogure was great for our family trip. It had the game corner you were asking about, of course.
But what I also loved was the "Kids' Space" in the lobby. It's a clean play area with a little slide, building blocks, and picture books. I was able to let my younger child play there without any worries.
My older kid headed to the game corner while my younger one stayed in the kids' space. It was perfect because they could both have fun, even though they're different ages.Sachiko55 (Early 40s Female)'s answer (Posted on:2025/10/30)

A place that both adults and children can enjoy
- This inn has a game center and a Buffet with a wide variety of food that is popular with children. In addition, this inn offers a luxurious 4,000m2 Visiting hot springs where you can enjoy the golden hot spring water that 100% natural hot spring, making it an inn that can be enjoyed by both children and adults.Fumi_3's answer (Posted on:2019/4/14)

You can't have it all in one day! An exciting place for both adults and children
- The inn is spacious so you can relax and play. Of course, there is a game corner, so I think it will be fun. There is a snack bar and a club, so adults can enjoy alcohol and beautiful scenery at night. There is Buffet for meals, so children will also be happy.みなぢ's answer (Posted on:2019/4/17)

A nostalgic game corner the whole family (three generations!) will love
- We’ve stayed at Ikaho Grand Hotel as a three-generation family. Inside the hotel, there’s a game corner that adults will find quite nostalgic.
It isn't filled with the very latest high-tech games, but honestly, that added to the classic "onsen trip" atmosphere, which we really liked. Our grandchildren were totally absorbed in the crane games and simple video games.
Besides the game corner, they also have karaoke rooms and a manga corner, so there’s plenty to keep you entertained right in the hotel. It’s reassuring to know there's something for everyone—from grandparents down to the kids.JunkoGran (Early 60s Female)'s answer (Posted on:2025/10/30)

A Game Corner and a lively Ping-Pong area for family fun!
- How about Ikaho Grand Hotel? They’ve got a game corner the kids will love.
We stayed there as a family and hit the game corner with the kids after dinner. They have some old-school games, which the kids actually found to be "refreshingly new."
There’s also a ping-pong table right nearby, so you can all enjoy some "onsen ping-pong" together. It’s super convenient to have these little activities ready for everyone after the bath or dinner. I definitely recommend it—it keeps the kids from getting bored!RyotaTraveler (Late 30s Male)'s answer (Posted on:2025/10/30)

There are also recreational facilities so the whole family can enjoy themselves.

If you are in Ikaho Onsen, how about staying at the Ikaho Grand Hotel? This hotel offers natural hot springs and serves meals in a Buffet style using many local ingredients, so it is highly recommended. There are also entertainment facilities such as karaoke, mahjong, table tennis, and a games corner, so the whole family can have fun.Natural Science's answer (Posted on:2020/12/ 9)

Not only is there a games corner, but there is also a table tennis and theater room.
- In addition to the game corner where elementary school children can play, there is also a table tennis room and a room where you can play Go and Shogi for free. There is also a manga plaza and a theater room where movies are updated every month, so not only children but adults can enjoy it too.Fumi_3's answer (Posted on:2019/4/18)

Great Amenities Beyond Just the Game Corner
-
I really think Hotel Kindayu in Ikaho Onsen is a place the whole family can enjoy. Of course, they have a game corner that the kids will love.
Beyond that, they also offer free karaoke rooms and ping-pong. The hotel's amenities are truly impressive.
Our kids played games and ping-pong, while the grandparents hit the karaoke room. Everyone got to do their own thing and was happy. It was so nice that nobody in the family got bored, even during those short waiting times after the onsen.AKI_Yuki (Late 30s Female)'s answer (Posted on:2025/10/30)

Game corner, plus free Ping-Pong and Billiards!
-
I recommend Hotel Kindayu in Ikaho Onsen. It has the game corner you're looking for. While it isn't stocked with all the newest games, it's more than enough to keep the kids entertained.
But the best part is that the ping-pong and billiards (pool) are free to use! We worked up a sweat playing ping-pong with the kids after dinner, and it got really exciting.
It's such a relief for parents to have a place where kids can burn off some energy, not just sit and play video games.TomoMama (Late 30s Female)'s answer (Posted on:2025/10/30)

3 minutes walk to Ishidan-gai, where there are many old-fashioned shooting galleries where children can play.
- Moriaki Ryokan (Japanese inn) has a game corner with several game machines, but it doesn't seem to be very popular as not many customers use it. However, the hot spring town's Ishidan-gai is a 3-minute walk away, and there are quite a few shops with shooting galleries and analog games, so if you're visiting Ikaho Onsen, it would be more fun to play with your children at Ishidan-gai. The reason we recommend Moriaki Ryokan (Japanese inn) is that they offer a family plan where elementary school children can stay for 20% of the adult price, so if you're looking for a place to stay with your children, it's a great deal, so we recommend you check it out.yo-ne's answer (Posted on:2019/7/30)
