9/10 Wonderful! (1,006 reviews)
With 2 young children, my wife and I stay in this hotel for 2 nights. Well, we chose this hotel as we wanted to spend the day in Universal Studio in Japan. So, it is in a great location for that purpose. Its check in and check out is automatic which is great. The thing we did not like about it was that even though we had a triple room, it was quite small foe a family of 4.

Get there by nine to get one of the limited tickets to go inside the palace, but you can always walk the grounds for free.
