🛁 Real Reviews from Foreign Guests

🆕 Latest Reviews

• “The location of this hotel is unbeatable, just steps from Gora Station, which made it so easy for us to explore Hakone. Our room was spacious and came with a private open-air bath on the balcony, which we used several times a day. The water was always the perfect temperature and the view of the mountains was beautiful. The staff were very friendly and helpful, always greeting us with a smile and assisting with our luggage. We also appreciated the welcome drink and snacks in the lobby upon arrival. Overall, it was a relaxing and memorable stay.” — 🇸🇬

• “We stayed for one night and were very impressed by the variety of onsen baths available, both public and private. The private bath attached to our room was a real highlight, and we loved being able to enjoy it at any time. Dinner and breakfast were both delicious, with a wide range of Japanese dishes beautifully presented. The yukata provided in the room was comfortable, and it was fun to wear it around the hotel. The atmosphere was peaceful and perfect for unwinding after a busy week.” — 🇯🇵
• “The hotel grounds are immaculate and beautifully landscaped, with lots of greenery and a tranquil pond. Our room was clean and well-maintained, with traditional tatami flooring and a futon bed that was surprisingly comfortable. The staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome, and even helped us plan our sightseeing route for the next day. We especially enjoyed the free coffee and ice cream available in the lobby throughout the day.” — 🇺🇸
• “We chose this hotel for a special anniversary trip and were not disappointed. The private onsen in our room was wonderful, and we spent hours soaking and enjoying the mountain air. The kaiseki dinner was a true highlight, with each course more delicious than the last. The staff surprised us with a small anniversary cake, which was a thoughtful touch. The entire experience felt luxurious and very Japanese, and we would love to return again.” — 🇬🇧
• “I was traveling with my elderly parents and appreciated how accommodating the staff were. They arranged for a room close to the elevator and provided extra pillows and blankets without us even asking. The breakfast buffet had a great selection of both Japanese and Western dishes, and everything was fresh and tasty. The location next to the train station made getting around Hakone very convenient. We all agreed that this was one of the best ryokan experiences we’ve had in Japan.” — 🇨🇦

💰 Price and Value

• “Maybe because it's New Year's, I can't say that the cost performance is that good, but overall it was good.” — 🇯🇵

• “Location is great as very close to train station and all the amenities of Hakone. The hotel itself? All we can say is that in 50 years of travelling we have not stayed in anything as poor for the price we, stupidly, paid - €590.” — 🇮🇪

• “The Japanese-style bed is just a futon spread between two wooden boards, so your body hurts. I felt that it would be difficult if your legs were not strong. This was the biggest demerit point.” — 🇯🇵
