Nintendo originally started out as a company that made playing cards in 1889 here in Kagiyacho Kyoto, and was founded by Fusajiro Yamauchi. And this very building was Nintendo’s first ever office headquarters, which was in full operation until 1959 when Nintendo finally outgrew the office and moved to a larger space. Unoccupied until now, it’s been transformed into a hotel and named after one of the company names Nintendo used in its past, Marufukuro. With 18 rooms including 7 suites, it preserves many of the former offices interior and design. This time, I brought the fam, Maiko and Wolfy and since it's an all-inclusive hotel, meaning food and drinks are provided for the entire stay, we’re gonna take it a bit easier than usual, slow it down, enjoy the place, and relax. We are staying in the Junior Suite of the warehouse building. You can check out the availability at the link below.

I love tokyo
Wow. Amazing hotel. Great video. Wolfe is just too cute!
"WELL PLAYED"!!!
This video was absolutely boring! Nobody was in there and the food looked disgusting. I fast forwarded through most of it.
@@yinyangforyou it was for information purpose and not to entertain you.
Palo: Fox?
Wolfy:****
palo: No no FOX?
Wolfy:****
Palo and Wife: "Sweats Profusely"
He is almost 2 but still funny to hear wolfy unintentionally swear in this video x'D
🤣🤣🤣💀
Wolfy nooooooooooooo!
demonetized 😆
😱😱🤣🤣
demonetized by a toddler XD
It’s so good that Wolfie is now feeling ok. Paolo and Chris are fast becoming the go to creator for promoting Japanese tourism. 💕 But seeing the food at the restaurant- smaller than your typical Japanese meal- you know it’s expensive.
I completely agree Chris abroad is absolutely brilliant, and Paolo is just so loveable!
@@jasondomican1991 Chris is very affable tbf
@@hoimeneer69 He is an affable guy
Yeah Wolfie was put through the ringer recently
Paolo, Chris, Sharla, Norm(Tokyo Lens), & Akiderest have been my go to for Japan content and honestly I've been loving it. It's such a good way to start my Saturday mornings
Wolfie definitely stole the show! I think I enjoyed watching him explore and interact with you two as much as seeing the hotel and your adventures. What a great video--please do more just like this!
Its lovely to see Wolfie having fun! Its hearthwarming to see the complete family having a good time.
His birth name is Wolfie? Like, actually?
@@slickrick2420 that is a Nick name.
Adorable!
The "fox" part though hahahahaha
It was too funny
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol how did I end up here what the fox
Hopefully TH-cam got the intent
His tones have a Japanese inflection .
I am amazed at how well they can deal with a toddler at the hotel. The staff is so well trained. Plus Wolfie is adorable.
10:20
If there's something that never disappoints in Japan, it's the food
Unless you go to Japan as a vegan. I spent a week in Tokyo surviving off 711 rice balls
@@1Rab lol omg. I could have sworn Japan stepped up its vegan game 🌱
It really is crazy how little the portions are, but that could be simply because it's a fancier place idk
@@1Rab or with seafood/shellfish allergy. I know being vegan is a higher restriction in physical options since its allergy I cannot trust anything food is made in.
As a fat American, the portion sizes or so tiny that's the only disappointment
Wolfie attempting to say "Fox" was hilarious 😂
Wow, major congrats on getting the opportunity to stay at such a historical place, Paolo! 👏😲
Wolfy’s is the happiest little guy ever. How he says “daddy” is so cute!
How he says fox is cuter
I had so much fun watching you, maiko and wolfy taking on family trips like this. It makes the video more fun and memorable than it already is. Of course I’m biased with wolfy’s cuteness!
Expected something more akin to an "attraction" or Disney but Nintendo. Ended up seeing a super classy hotel that clearly is freshly opened and hyper chill. Surprised! Great video as always Paolo!
Paolo’s videos are always fun to watch. It’s amazing how much Wolfy has grown! It seems like he was just born yesterday. Love 💕 this little family 😊
Absolutely fantastic walkthrough of the building. Love what they did with the library and I can't wait to visit myself (next year,, hopefully)!
Thanks for the great video tour and well wishes to your family! NAKAMA!
Nice to see the King Of D here. 😂
Fully expecting to see Roger's here hahaa
I want to thank you! I’ve been having a horrible month and even a worse day and you just made my day! I live through your videos so this def just made my entire day!
Happy for you
Yay good to hear it made your day :)
It's so awesome you were able to complete the loop from the unfinished hotel with a family experience. This was a really great video thanks for bringing us along with the hastle of camera work. Not easy and you guys all make it look easy. Amazing.
Thank you for taking us back with you. It's a really beautiful place and the touches they finished with are very elegant.
Wow! Sounds like the hotel that was once the Nintendo HQ office was a great place to stay! I like how kid friendly it is too with bringing up a stroller for Wolfy. Wolfy is so adorable at almost 2 years old running around like that and having fun!
This was such an engaging video. Always excited to wake up and watch a new video from you Paulo. It was so fun to see this beautiful and historic hotel and city, but I'm also here to see Wolfie enjoying his life. He is adorable.
I am so thankful for these videos! Thanks so much for sharing your family and trip. You have no idea how joyful I feel when watching. Bless you all. 💗🙏✌️💪
It was very cute when he was trying to get Wolfie to say fox. He has the cutest laugh.
Seeing Taiga run around happy gives me the feels. Looks like another explorer in the making. Good job Paolo and Maiko for raising an awesome kid!! 🇵🇭🇵🇭 Mabuhay Pinoy Tatays and Japanese Kaasans!!
I’m a Nintendo fan and totally geeking out especially with that awesome library! 😍 I’ve been living in Japan for a long time but haven’t visited Kyoto. I hope we can stay in that hotel if we do visit. It looks so relaxing and classy!
Glad you got to have this experience!
I really like your videos in this management of space with great energy it goes very quickly but remembers everything we see and we keep a good memory of the essentials
The hotel looks really neat and actually I enjoyed seeing the parks. Please do a video about some outdoor spaces!
What an awesome experience, Paolo! Glad the fam got to join you, too!
I am Japanese and living in the US for more than 50yrs and sure enjoying your videos and I just bought your Ja-pan t-shirts for my son for fathers day can't wait to give to him!!! :))
Been watching you since 30 thousand subs. Your PMA is adictive. So happy your channel is doing so well!!
I can’t wait to see the evolution of Wolfy throughout this channel.
12:33 I love how he said that lmao
oh my god its first time for me to see wolfie and the family, i really truly enjoyed to see all these beutifull interactions! you have such a wonderful loving family i would not mind seeing more family videos from time to time if the family agrees!
Thanks for sharing this hotel stay Paolo!
I love how Paolo's sence of humor shines through. And seeing how much wolfie has adapted to life and even likes being part of videos as he grows is a real treat. Hope yo meet you someday! Want to make your family some fan art!
Wolfie seemed far more behaved than usual and really happy about exploring his new surroundings here. Fun video!
Thank you for the wonderful content you give us. Your beautiful family and passion for your work are something to be proud of!
Love your videos! It really shows how much time you spend on them! And I won't forget to mention the amazing angles you film from! You really know what you're doing!
Totally going on my list. Thank you for such a thorough and beautiful video review, Paolo!
Great video, thanks for taking us along :)
I had my first child in September 2020, so he’s very close to Wolfie’s age. It’s been very interesting following your life and Wolfie’s first two years and seeing how his development matches up with my own sons. And hearing you talk about Wolfie echoes my own feelings about my son, Milo.
Love your work, keep the great content coming. Wishing you and the family all the best from me and my family in Sweden! :)
That was a great stay. Thanks for taking us along.
17:33 wolfie’s spiritual pressure is off the charts
6:04 That's a whole mood right there and its called *chillen*
im so glad to see a video with Wolfie when he is feeling good!
Yo that Fox part honestly made my day. Never knew i needed something simple as that so much lol
Wow! How awesome to get the opportunity to experience such a unique hotel. Congratulations! And thank you for sharing it with us.💕
love your channel. truly feel like im experiencing this with you guys! thank you for all the effort you put into this channel!
Love this video! Would love to see more videos of you and your family exploring together 🥰
0:24 haha he's definitely been watching lots of TH-cam.
"hi everybody press the button up here, down here, and thanks for watching" plus a cool pose 😂
Damn this was a great vid! 😄 From Wolfie chillin like a boss at 1:48, to Paolo, "I've had a few bad Madelines too" at 8:49 😂 Maiko should have smacked you. And Wolfie saying fox 😂😂Thank you all for some genuine wholesome laughs and putting a huge smile on my face.
So great to see this vid after the covid scares and Wolfie being sick.
What a fun video! Thanks for the ride, Mr. De Guzman!
Really cool how you show your son love and affection. Wish my dad was like that with me.
Always look forward to your videos. It's so nice seeing the beautiful country of Japan. You have a wonderful family. All the best from me and my family.
Wolfie saying “Da-di” gets me every time. So cute.
I’m so glad wolfy is feeling so much better
What a unique experience! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Paolo for the video. Noted down this hotel on the to-go list next time 😄
This channel is just wholesome!
I had an absolutely wonderful time watching this Paolo thanks for an amazing upload
as someone who enjoys a nice holiday drink myself, i always love how you check out the local drink haha. really wholesome.
Wow, time flies! Look at how fast Wolfie is growing! This video was really cool.
Fantastic video keep it up your doing amazing job
I love that they kept so many original features. It feels like a time machine in some ways! Really cool building.
Always love your videos and trips 😊🥂 and I was just reading a book about Hideyoshi Toyotomi last night, Swordless Samurai 😁
Wolfie is adorable!!!! He’s a mini Paolo! Cutest family! ❤️
One thing I love about seeing all these different things in Japan is definitely the places. I’m huge into architecture. Things my friends would see as just buildings mean so much more for me. Not just in Japan either. New York is a place I love as well. I’ve sadly never been to New York or Japan but it’s channels like yours that show me these places I really enjoy! Hopefully one day I can visit these places but until then seeing them in videos is great!
London has better architecture than New york.
@@calipo5110 maybe, just never cared that much about going to London. Not saying I wouldn't at some point but currently I have no interest.
Quite nice to stay at a historic place. And Wolfie is growing so quickly!
I fondly remember the 2 to 3 years old phases. It just gets better. Even when my son pushes me away and just wants to do what he wants to do, it warms my heart since he is becoming his own man.
He's getting so big and so fast. And with all the cuteness🥰
Thank you for the video. Wow your kid is so grown already, time goes so fast!
Congrats on getting the opportunity to stay at such an amazing place!
That place looks like the perfect kind of setting for movies and tv shows
Paolo the sass in this one gave the video life. keep at it.
I have enjoyed this video, great family vibes. This hotel is on my bucket list. Can not wait to travel again
Hello from Canada 🇨🇦 👋
Watching your videos it really helps me relax and enjoy . Keep up the amazing content and now I feel like visiting to Japan
ooo i love your videos!! this is awesome!! they always brighten my day😄😄
Glad you like them!
Such a lovely vlog, thank you for sharing !❤😊
Best channel for checking out japan!
You two are such good parents. Wolfie is so sweet.
Excelent video Paolo! Not what I expected the Hotel to be, but very pretty on the inside!
What a cool place! Japan is on my bucket list and I hope I get to visit one day! Thank goodness for the snack and coffee station. My kind of hotel!
2:36 この鍵とかホテルの雰囲気とかめっちゃ好き。very nice。
I literally remember him being BORN and now he’s waving and posing! I can’t! And you both are amazing parents 🫶
Same! Wolfy is such a cute baby and now he's a cute toddler! He makes me feel old 🤣 even though I'm not old
This is what being a family man is all about and your doing an amazing job
Aloha 🤙 from Honolulu! Excellent video! Luv seeing your family 👪 enjoying a mini vacation
Thank you so much for sharing! 😊 🙏
Best part of the whole video, Wolfy saying “fox”
Who noticed whenever Paolo is excited
He smiles and closes his eyes while he is talking haha 😆
I really enjoy how nowadays one can learn through TH-cam life styles and the Japanese knowhow, organization, respect of others and the enjoyment of beautiful life. Your family closeness is heartwarming.
12:34 it sounded like "f*ck" 💀
Damn Wolfie is a savage for saying it thrice 😂😂
Love seeing Maiko's outfits in the videos♡
Looks like a pretty cool high-end hotel. Great job on the video as always!
Love your videos man, keep up the good work 👍
12:34 best part of this
Yeah this place is on the bucket list when I visit Japan!
3:06 looks like the fishing place/ bridge area from Doraemon!
Childhood memories 😌😄
You're so chill travelling with toddler. I took my 2yo boy to mall for 2 hrs (with helper) i was super tired 😵💫
hey, great video as always, at 1:26 you mentioned that the hotel stopped is full functions in 1959 but in the subtitles(japanese one) it says until 1957
Nice video Paolo.. love it 🙂
Wolfy is getting so big and smart 💗 Handsome little fella!
Wolfys' got a potty mouth lol so cute
