A new zone called "Yuttamari" opened on the 3rd floor of SPAWORLD HOTEL & RESORT in Osaka's Naniwa Ward on April 29, 2026. The zone switches between two distinct uses depending on the time of day: a dedicated kids' space for families during daytime hours, and a board game lounge for adults at night.
Background of the "Yuttamari" Zone
The Yuttamari zone was established as part of an initiative to expand the variety of ways guests can spend time within SPAWORLD HOTEL & RESORT. By alternating between daytime family use and nighttime adult use, the zone aims to enhance the value of daytime visits for families while also creating new late-night leisure options, broadening the appeal of the facility for a wider range of visitors.
Key Features of "Yuttamari"
1. Kids' Space "Asobanbann"
During daytime hours, the area operates as "Asobanbann," a kids' space available to children aged 9 and under. It is equipped with a ball pool and a range of play equipment suitable for toddlers as well as older children up to elementary school age, offering a safe and enjoyable environment for families.
2. Family Relaxation Area "Goyururi Dokoro"
"Goyururi Dokoro" is stocked with a wide selection of toys and picture books for children of varying ages. Workshops and other events are occasionally held on weekends, providing guests with a space to play, relax, and enjoy diverse activities all in one area.
3. Dining Area "Manpuku Dokoro"
At "Manpuku Dokoro," parents can enjoy meals purchased at the food park while keeping an eye on their children at play. The area features raised seating (koagari) and serves as a comfortable family rest area within the complex.
4. "Goyururi Dokoro" Transforms into a Board Game Space at Night
From 9:00 PM, "Goyururi Dokoro" converts into a board game lounge for adults. The shelves along the walls hold around 50 board game titles — ranging from trending games to long-standing favorites. The space is open until the early hours of the morning, offering a new late-night leisure experience that can be combined with the spa and other amenities available throughout the complex.
Hours and Entry
Daytime use runs from 12:00 PM to 9:00 PM, and nighttime use runs from 9:00 PM to 3:00 AM (last entry at 2:00 AM).
Guests using the daytime kids' space check in at the Yuttamari gate on the 3rd floor. For nighttime board game access, check-in is at the information counter on the 2nd floor. A registration form must be completed upon entry for nighttime use.
