The yukata material was comfortable (they let you choose the Obi and Sash) and the staff was attentive although there was a language barrier. They did a good job styling my hair and the service was amazing as they ask you permission to use hair spray on your hair and let you choose the hairpin. short walking distance from kawagoe station. recommend 👍🏼

Our tour guide also served as the driver and was very responsible, ensuring everything was well-arranged. The tickets he purchased were for the first row, which was an excellent spot and great value for money. The hotel arranged in the middle of the trip was an old Japanese inn, providing a wonderful experience. The other two attractions were also fantastic; the hot springs would have been perfect if visited in winter. The itinerary design was very good. If I had to point out a flaw, it would be that the hotel we returned to after the Nebuta Festival was quite far. While the tourists weren't too tired, sleeping through the journey, the driver worked incredibly hard, driving for several hours late into the night. I suggest optimizing this part of the route.

It was easy to buy, redeem and use. However I find that the bus drivers seem suspicious about this when showed. The train station staff was ok. And I realised there are people who shared this by logging into 1 account on their individual phones, which cause a queue at the train station due to them slowly log out and log in. overall this pass really saves you ¥ if you take a few of the bus rides at Kawagoe. If it's just to go Kawagoe to and fro then not worth it.

this was an easy one transfer ride from seibu shinjuku to kawagoe station and back! no hassle just went there, rode one train, and i’m at kawagoe in an hour. makes a day trip at the countryside very very accessible! plus it’s cheap for a roundtrip ticket!

After purchasing, you'll also need to buy a limited express ticket (with reserved seating) separately on the Seibu Railway official website. Once you're on the official website, remember to switch the language to Japanese and then translate it to Chinese. This will allow the ticket purchase window to appear. If you choose the website's built-in language translation option immediately upon entering, nothing will show up, and the content will be very minimal. So, it's best to view it in Japanese first and then use a website translator. This time, we went straight to Nagatoro for a boat ride to start our day! It was beautiful~

Easy to book, user-friendly, and offers great value that tourists deserve when traveling around Kanto. We started using it right at Narita Airport for the train into Tokyo, the subway, and Toei buses. Just show the online pass to the station staff; some let you pass right through, while others check to see if it covers their journey. In places without staff, you can press the intercom button to speak with someone. Pairing it with NAVITIME to select routes covered by the Greater Tokyo Pass might mean a few detours and transfers, but overall, it makes traveling very smooth. The places we visited using this pass include Nikko, Kawagoe, Kasukabe, Kamakura, Chofu, the Fujiko F. Fujio Museum, Kotokuji Temple, and Kichijoji.

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 hotel is new, and the service is excellent. The rooms are quiet, and it's very close to Omiya Station. The hotel provides thoughtful amenities, including mouthwash, children's toys, stuffed animals, and storybooks. If you're bored in the evening, you can also visit the nearby Don Quijote. The triple rooms even come with a Refa hairdryer. Complimentary beverages are available in the lobby from afternoon until 11 PM.
