Why I Recommend Otona no Tabibiyori

Reason 1: For grandfathers, a hot spring trip is the most popular gift

In a “survey on gifts for grandfathers,” many people want to give something when a grandfather reaches a milestone age such as 70 or 80, or on Respect for the Aged Day, and the number one gift is “travel and hot springs”.

Incidentally, second place is “a meal at a restaurant” and third is “alcohol.”

Reason 2: The industry’s largest lineup of courses, carefully selected from famous hot springs and inns you want to visit at least once

From the “famous hot springs and inns you want to visit at least once” in a user survey conducted by a travel company, selected hot spring ryokan and hotels are included in the catalog.

There are 247 courses across Japan, so you’re sure to find accommodation you like!

Reason 3: Easy booking with just one phone call

Applying is really simple: you can book with just one phone call.

Reason 4: A rich lineup of catalog items beyond hot spring ryokan and hotels

“Otona no Tabibiyori” offers a wide range of items beyond hot spring ryokan and hotels, including farm-direct products, popular high-end sweets, long-established ryotei restaurants, fine restaurants, gourmet food and brand-name goods.
