Hawaii Mom Blog: Visit Tokyo: Pasela Resorts

We had such a great time singing Karaoke at Round 1 in Osaka, that my kids wanted to do it again in Tokyo.

There were a lot of Big Echo locations near our hotel, but they didn't have the greatest reviews, and were pretty pricey on top of that.

After researching online, I found The Tokyo Chapter blog, which had a lot of great info on karaoke with kids in Japan.

It's through her blog I discovered Pasela Resorts.

With several locations throughout Tokyo, Pasela offers karaoke rooms and room + drink / food packages. The rate is high compared to other karaoke rooms in Tokyo, and much higher than what we'd pay for karaoke rooms in Hawaii (we paid nearly $30pp for 2 hours just for the room), but the rooms come with all kinds of perks, like complimentary snacks, water, toys for kids, blankets if you get cold, and so much more!

The karaoke rooms (there are plenty of rooms, including themed rooms which cost more) are also clean and spacious (and there were tambourines in our room!), and even the restrooms had all kinds of amenities (like mouthwash).

We did find the room was warm, and it wasn't until an hour in of our two-hour rental did we figure out how to turn it on.

Song selection is made via a touchpad, and you can change it to English and search by song / artist.

They have most of the newest American hits and well as lots of oldies but goodies.

We decided to order some food and drink while singing.
