yummy breakfast, very good location with shopping malls and JR station nearby, bigger room than averge room in tokyo. The open bath on 14/F is very nice. I would definitely choose Candeo Hotel Omiya again when I visit Saitama.

The accommodation is very close to Omiya Station, just a five-minute walk away. There's also a 24-hour supermarket nearby, which is very convenient. Plus, there are complimentary welcome drinks on the first floor, which is fantastic. There's also a large public bath!

A great choice for a self-driving trip. There's plenty of parking, and downstairs is very convenient with a McDonald's and a few other restaurants and cafes. It's also easy to walk to the station for shopping. The room is clean, bright, and quite spacious.

The location is excellent, just a one-minute walk from Saitama-Shintoshin Station. Additionally, there's a large shopping mall nearby, enough to keep you busy for a whole day. It's only one stop to Omiya, making it convenient for day trips to the Tokyo suburbs, and the rooms are larger than those in Tokyo.

The location is convenient and easy to find, and the overall cleanliness is excellent. They even provide breakfast in the morning and 24-hour coffee. The air conditioning works very well, and the semi-self-service check-in and check-out are also very convenient. The only downside is that the bed is a bit too firm.

An absolute must-see – the Railway Museum in Saitama! Anyone with even a spark of enthusiasm for trains will love this museum. Spanning over 9,000 square meters, visitors can delve deep into the history of Japanese railways, featuring real locomotives, interactive exhibits, and impressive technological experiences. (Sumikai) Over 36 faithfully reproduced vehicles are on display, and thanks to lighting, music, and video effects, even stationary trains come to life. (ANA) The absolute highlight for me was the ride on the small mini-train – in that moment, you completely forget your age and become a child again. That smile won't fade anytime soon! The museum is easily accessible from Ōmiya Station via the "New Shuttle" – the journey itself sets the mood for the adventure. (Japanliebe) For families, train enthusiasts, and nostalgia lovers: definitely plan a visit!

It rained the day before we arrived in Tokyo, so we only purchased the tickets after confirming good weather on the day of our visit, which was very convenient. Since it included a Seibu Railway one-day pass, we could go to Kawagoe in the morning. If you want to save time, you can take the limited express train by purchasing an additional limited express ticket. The direct bus was also great. Moominvalley Park really takes a whole day to explore completely. It was truly delightful and a very happy day.

since the place is far from Tokyo most of the time was taken in the journey. However, The journey itself is very peaceful and scenic. The guide has given the instructions clearly and has been very helpful throughout the trip. major highlights are the Hoshino resorts and clock tower. We couldn't go to shrine,as we reached there after the closing time due to traffic. However there's a museum very near to clock tower that highlights the festival there. It was just 100 yen ticket to enter yet totally worth the experience.

Book on Klook and was able to walk right in easily. The Godzilla 4D ride was awesome - similar to attractions at Disney where you are seated in a row and the screen in front of you shows an epic battle between Godzilla and Mechagodzilla. The performances by the staff at the park and musical numbers were also incredible. No lines to wait in. Highly recommend.
