Tokyo Kids Castle | 130㎡ | 新宿20分 | 駅1分

こんにちは、オーナーです。 Tokyo Kids Castle(東京キッズキャッスル)を作った理由は、 1. 世界中のこどもとその家族へより快適な旅環境・遊び環境を提供する 2. コロナに負けるな、チャレンジ精神と勇気、ワクワクを発信する 3. 地元地域・商店街に世界中から来て頂き、体験・消費して頂く 世界中のこどもたちとそのご家族に来て頂きたいです。 うちにも小学生の子供が2人います。 コロナ期間中は自粛しがちで遊びに連れていく機会もあまりなく、そういった経験からも、もしこんな場所があったら安心して遊びに連れて行けるのではないか、と思ったのがこのプロジェクトの始まりです。 世界の人々がより新しいことにチャレンジし、より好きなことが出来て、より楽しくワクワクするような毎日を過ごせるそんな世界になることを願っています。 ※重要事項について※ ※ご予約人数以上でのご利用(入室)が確認された場合、追加料金としてお一人様1日1万円を請求させて頂きます。また、ご利用者様以外の立ち入りも禁止させて頂いております。 宿泊者人数が増減する場合にはチェックイン前に必ずお知らせください。
