Guest house with host Takao SORA- Vacation STAY 13000
Hosted, budget guesthouse with a kitchen
About this hotel
This Vacation Stay guesthouse, run with an on-site host, offers rooms with air-conditioning, bath, hairdryer, work desk and kitchenware, geared toward families who want to cook a simple meal rather than eat out every night of a water park trip. The shared bathroom is the main trade-off against a hotel room, but free WiFi and free on-site private parking cover the practical needs of a driving family. Set around 69 kilometres from Tokyo Haneda Airport with Mount Takao roughly 14 kilometres away, it sits toward the quieter edge of the Hachioji hotel corridor. Guests consistently note the service and facilities here, a sign that the hosted format works well for those who try it.

Our take
This suits a family comfortable sharing a bathroom in exchange for a kitchen, free parking and a personal, hosted feel, especially for a longer stay where self-catering saves real money. Families who need a private en-suite bathroom every night should look to a standard hotel room elsewhere in the corridor instead.
- ✓Bring basic cooking supplies to make full use of the kitchenware provided.
- ✓Confirm shared bathroom scheduling with the host if travelling with young children.
- ✓Reserve the free on-site parking spot ahead of a peak water park weekend.

Why guests love itCooking a simple dinner in the kitchenware after a full day at Tokyo Summerland saved us both money and the hassle of finding a restaurant with sunburnt, hungry kids. The shared bathroom needed a bit of scheduling with two families in tow, but the host was quick to help, and free parking made the whole trip easier since we'd driven out from central Tokyo.
