Ryokan Kinnotake Tonosawa (Adult only)
"This hotel is as beautiful as the advertised photos. It is in a relatively quiet area that's easily accessible by the local Hakone Tozan bus. There is also a shuttle bus service to/from the Hakone-Yumoto train station. The hotel room is big, clean and has a minimalistic look to it. The beds are very comfortable.
The private onsen can fit two adults easily.
The service from the hotel staff is impeccable. From the moment you arrive at the hotel, the hotel staff will greet you at the door and provide you with a small snack before you check into your room. The meals were good, not great -- we preferred the breakfast over dinner (perhaps we're not used to the traditional Kyoto style -- though the fish we had was slightly overcooked).
Overall, this is a very nice place to go and relax. I would recommend this hotel to couples for a romantic getaway."Show more

Hakone Kowakien TEN-YU
"Hakone Kowakien Tenyu met my expectation in every way. We are a family of 4 and have booked 2 rooms for our stay. Our flight to Tokyo was delayed by 2 days due to Typhoon so we didn't have time to enjoy Hakone before our hotel checkin. We had a day tour in Tokyo instead and was dropped off to the hotel by our driver at 7:00pm. Due to our change in plan, we had to cancel our spa reservation at this hotel.
With our reservation package, each lady/girl received a very pretty yukata kimono to wear during our stay and to bring home. We dressed and had an excellent multi course Kaiseki meal at their restaurant. Staff were attentive and provided excellent service. My daughter is allergic to fish and they designed a totally different menu for her to enjoy.
After dinner, my daughters enjoyed the private spring soak in their room while I tried the public bath. It was a great experience. The whole place is zen and tranquil. The outdoor bath is an infinity pool with an excellent view.
The next morning, we woke up early and enjoyed their beautiful scenery and private garden. We took lots of beautiful photos in our kimonos. Later we tried the other outdoor public bath which showcased a natural waterfall with beautiful rocks surrounding the area. Our skin and hair felt so smooth and glowing after the bath.
Their multicourse breakfast in Japanese and Western styles were both excellent. You can tell that they put an effort in ensuring guests have a good experience here.
Reception staff helped us arranged a taxi transfer to the train station. Everything went well.
Their gift shop carries lots of local and private brand products which are all reasonably priced. I bought all my Hakone souvenirs from here.
Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for your stay in Hakone. I feel refreshed after the night. Next time I will try their spa service."Show more

Especially the dinner and breakfast, honestly it’s the most delicious and delicate one I’ve ever had in Japan. The onsen was great, you could really see the mountains in your room.

The Prince Hakone Lake Ashinoko
"We never give reviews for hotels which we stay at. However, I thought I would do justice to The Prince Hakone Hotel by writing a short review on it.
We arrived at the hotel on one misty night, and sighted the hotel from afar. It looked magical, sitting in all that mist.
Upon checking in, we went to the outdoor onsen, which was simply rejuvenating. Not to mention the sealy mattress which we provided in the room. It felt like resting on a cloud. We awoke next morning, feeling simply recharged.
I would definitely visit The Prince Hakone again!"Show more

Hakone Highland Hotel
"The hotel staffs are friendly. Breakfast restaurant environment and service is good. But Breakfast choice is limited - either japanese or American breakfast. Hotel room is big and comfy. There is Onsen available in the hotel and free for guest. Very near to the bus stop (about 1 min walk only) where you can ride on the bus to most of the Hakone Tourist spots using Hakone Free Pass. Hakone Free Pass can be purchased at Shinjuku Station Odawara Station. Getting it at Odawara station and you can use the free pass to ride on the bus direct go to Hakone Highland hotel. The bus will stop at the bus stop right outside of the hotel. It’s a less than a min walk of distance from bus stop to the hotel. Wheel Chair (fold up), baby stroller (fold up) and Big Luggage is allowed to bring onboard. Recommended for traveller with baby, old fold and in a family."Show more

Hakone Suimeisou Hotel
"We stayed at Hakone Suimeiso in early December 2016. It was our second time to Hakone and we had fond memories of our last stay as we had stayed Hakone Yumoto Hotel and we enjoyed it.
It is not difficult to find the hotel as it is about 5mins walk from the Hakone-Yumoto Station. The staff are very friendly and welcome you with traditional Japanese hospitality.
We stayed at the Japanese-Style Room with Open-Air Bath. The rooms are beautiful with simple zen style decor. However, the tub in the balcony was one of the highlight of the stay. Overlooking the flowing river with waterfall and beautiful autumn leaves you will enjoy a relaxing time listening to the sound of the waterfall. The tub comes with piped hot spring water. If you prefer an outdoor onsen it is available on the top floor of the hotel.
Dinner and breakfast was served in the private dining room on the same floor as our room and it was a wonderful spread of Japanese dining which even includes desert. The staff are very friendly and showed great hospitality. While eating your dinner the staff will lay down the futons in your room and while you are having breakfast they will keep them.
The hotel is so close to the shops around Hakone-Yumoto station and here you can find souvenirs and many wonderful local delights such as dried plums, Hakone rusk, rice cracker and even a nice cafe to sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee and some cheese cake.
You can purchase the Hakone Freepass which covers most of the transportation (train, bus, cable car, cruise) in the Hakone-Odawara area so that you can enjoy exploring the area.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hakone Suimeiso and it has further left a wonderful deep lasting memory of Hakone."Show more

Hakone Hotel
"We stayed one night at Hakone Hotel. Location is very close to the busstop (to Moto-Hakone,....,... and finally Odawara) and Hakone-Machi Pier (Hakone Sightseeing Ships from Togendai).
Staff is very friendly. We stayed at twin room.Facilities are very good and rooms are comfortable(at front deck, we requested lake view room).Two ladies who were at front desk can speak English very well and nicely talked with us.One was pleasantly guided us.
However, foods are very expensive in Hotel restaurant.
In overall, Hakone Hotel is very good option to enjoy your holiday with family."Show more

Yoshiike Ryokan
"Really enjoyed the single-night stay at Yoshiike.
Okay, so this place surely isn't the *bling-bling*, new and modern, luxurious hotel. But my experiences here were one of the best within my entire Japan trip. Great service, of course. But most importantly, the location... You "must" seek for a hotel near Hakone-Yumoto for optimal transportation experiences and other factors such as restaurants, souvenirs...
And the sceneries both inside and outside the hotel! Beautiful and very well maintained all-around.
The staff are not the greatest English speakers, but does enough to support your visit.
The only downside I can think of was the fact that the air-conditioning wasn't so great. But with the garden-view with the natural breeze through the windows were just enough for us any way.
Totally visiting again, if I can."Show more

Hakoneyumoto Onsen Yaeikan
"We booked two of the private onsen rooms - one for my parents and one for my husband and I - since we weren’t sure we could brave the public onsen. We can’t rave enough about this place. Great traditional ryokan experience, amazing dinner and breakfast, relaxing onsens, the sweetest staff, and conveniently close to the Hakone Yumoto station.
Each room’s layout was completely different and uniquely beautiful. The photos really don’t do it justice. Unfortunately since the lighting is dim on purpose, I couldn’t even capture any good photos or videos. We felt like each of our hotel rooms was a whole house with all of the space. Our rooms were made up of several separate spaces - a living room with a table/4 chairs and balcony, a separate bedroom, closet, toilet room, vanity/sink room, partially outdoor onsen bath and separate shower... we were thrilled!
The food... OMG! Just amazing. Rounds and rounds of courses for both the dinner and breakfast. Everything was so thoughtfully and intentionally created, and although tiny at first, we all got so stuffed we couldn’t finish everything. And my husband and dad eat a ton...
We ended up checking out all of the public onsens - there were 2 pubic onsen rooms, each with two onsens, and also a public one that you can reserve for private use. We all thoroughly enjoyed it and could visibly see the difference in our skin and facial complexion after just a 15 min soak.
The staff were also so kind and allowed us to check our luggage before check-in as well as after check-out. Our server NaiZuKi (sp?) was incredibly sweet and kind - she made our stay even better! She spoke English, Chinese and Japanese! I had read in some past reviews about the staff not speaking anything but Japanese, but we didn’t find that was the case at all.
It’s a super close walk to the Hakone Yumoto station, which seems kind of far from all of the other Hakone points of interest like Lake Ashi, etc. but it’s honestly all pretty easy to get to if you g"Show more

Yugiriso Ryokan
"This little ryokan is located at Hakone Machi which is the quieter jetty. My sister and I did the Hakone sightseeing loop before checking in. Once you walk out of the jetty, turn left and walk along the main road till you reach Hakone Hotel. Right opposite Hakone Hotel, there is a little lane with Yugiriso hotel's japanese name but no English name. Walk inwards and u'll get there in a min.
Checking in was a breeze. I read reviews on the staff not being able to speak English at all so I was worried but the staff did speak English well and understood us. Even the room maid spoke a little English and she was so friendly. The hotel and room is really cosy. We felt very comfortable. There is an indoor and outdoor hot spring bath, cosy size too. Probably could fit 6-8ppl comfortably."Show more

Famous Little Prince museum and Venetian Glass museum is nearby as well as well known Pampas grass field.
Take bus route T from Hakone Yumoto station and get off at Daigateke stop (there's a Lawson convenient store) . It's about 40min trip. Only 1 min walk to hotel from bus stop.
Better to buy Hakone Free Pass from Odakyu Shinjuku station. It includes train from Shinjuku to Hakone, most of the public transport in Hakone including Tozan bus, train, cable car, Ropeway and the famous cruise in Lake Ashi to see the Torii in the water."Show more

Shinanoki Ichinoyu
"Spent one night in this hotel during my visit to Hakone and Gotemba. Just one bus ride from Hakone Yumoto train station. Hotel is located alongside the main road in Hakone, very near to bus stop in front of Shinanoki Highland Hotel.
Room is quite spacious for a couple. We really loved the kotatsu (Japanese table with electric heater) that kept us warm in early spring. There is also private open air bath just outside of your window room facing the garden full of hydrangea flowers. The stone bath tub is spacious for single person to soak into. Be careful with bath water temperature as it is very hot with no means to lower it. Public open air bath on the second floor is recommended as it is much spacious with and much bearable water temperature.
We were served traditional Japanese breakfast specific for each guest. Drinks, however, were self-service."Show more

Hotel Okada
"for a first-timer to hakone, hotel okada is an excellent choice for it is conveniently located near to hakone yumoto stn & has a shuttle bus (yen100) that runs between the stn to the hotel. even if you miss the last shuttle run (at 6pm), you still can walk to the hotel (10-15mins walk) and it is quite a pleasant and cooling walk for me.
okada spotted a nice location besides the river. the exterior & interior decor are very jap, just what i was lookng for to experience. i book the jap style accomo, sleeping in futon (fortunately the staff already made up the futon for us) and walking on tatami floor in the room, enjoying tea over the jap table setting, all adds on to a truely jap experience. i tried in indoor and outdoor onsen too, not a big onsen pool but was a good experience.
the hotel staff are very helpful too and they truely maintain this hotel clean and tidy. certainly worth the stay!
only thing i find that hotels in hakone generally can improve on is the check-in and check-out time. check-in at 3pm (after a long journey there) is tiring, and moreover having to checkout by 10am is just too early! but we can leave our lugguage at the conceige and continue sight-seeing till late."Show more

Shiki no Yuzashiki Musashino-Bekkan
"This was an excellent place. The baths are lovely and clean. There are two private baths you can book half hour timeslots, and gender-separated public baths that are open for you to visit whenever. Service was excellent; most of the staff speak only Japanese but with Google Translate and lots of gestures, we got on just fine. Some of the lobby staff speak English so you won't be stranded. English menus and signs are all available. Their gift shop was lovely and OMG THE FOOD. SO MUCH FOOD. They serve you breakfast and dinner. You do not need lunch at all. The dishes were all unique, very Japanese, richly flavored, and perfectly made. Our room overlooked Mount Hakone and a lovely bamboo forest. The only warning I would give is that, since you're in the mountains with outdoor baths, be careful of the various insects that you might encounter. The ryokan itself is lovely and clean, but bugs around the outdoor baths cannot be helped."Show more

Very quiet and slow pace town. We choose the lake view room however the view was affected by the weather. The optimum view resumed in the following morning and it was indeed worth while to choose this hotel. The food was served in the room and the O-ba-san was very friendly. The food include a very big spread of traditional Japanese food such at sashimi, etc. the room was clean and spacious. The public bath in the ryokan was ok but the view was affected by the bad weather. After check out, we took numazu bus to mishima station with hakone pass.

The staff was amazing and we felt like VIPs throughout our stay. My husband and I both had massages at the spa and they were excellent. Tipping is not customary in Japan, but this staff deserved tips more than anyone we have ever encountered and it felt wrong not tipping. So, we will at least leave this complimentary review so they know we experienced five star service all the way around. We enjoyed our stay - truly the best accommodations on our 19-day trip.

Hakone Tenseien Hotel
"From the Hakone-Yumoto Station, you can use the overpass bridge to cross the street. There is a Tourist information office there. In front of the tourist info office is a bus stop for min-bus A, B & C. Bus A is going to Hotel Tenseien and will cost 100 yen per person (as of May 2016) and will take about 15 min., mostly because of the traffic because the streets are very narrow. We walked one night from Hakone-Yumoto to Hotel and it took us about 20 min. I think that was around 9:30pm and there’s no more Bus A… The bus stop for Bus A going back to Hakone-Yumoto station is just outside the hotel. Very convenient.
Before the main hotel entrance is a bridge and a river…very cool!
The Hotel is amazing. It’s very clean. Shoes are not allowed anywhere inside the hotel. There are shoe cabinets by the entrance and you must keep the keys.
The room is big for japan standard. The toilet is a bit small. Our room window is facing the waterfalls…nice view. They provide Yukata (robe) for everyone so you get that Japanese feeling. They have slippers for everyone to use whenever you want to explore the garden, the shrine, around the pond and if you want to enjoy the beauty of the 2 waterfalls…..again, amazing view.
They have a 24-hour shop. They have I think 24-hour Onsen on the rooftop which is the best! The amenities are great! They have steam-bath, Sauna, indoor and outdoor onsen….yes on the roof top…under the sky…under the stars.I want to go back now.
They have relaxation room and they provide massage services.
This place is totally the most relaxing hotel I have ever been.
The Food is good. The breakfast selection is huge. We had ala-carte dinner and the sushi and soba noodles are good. The service is also good. Free wifi.

The service is great, I deposit my luggage at front desk before checkin time, when I came back a front desk staff walked me to my room with luggage already inside. Right across the street from Hakone Yumoto station, very good location. The hot spring is very enjoyable. However, this hotel is pretty pricy. Dinner sets cost from 5500yen and up. Rental of DVD player is also 5000+yen per night. No wifi, and the lobby pay computer is really slow. Overall a convenient hotel if you can book it for a good price."Show more

"We stayed during a 3-day Japanese holiday. Hakone itself was really packed, so I suggest looking up holidays before booking. There were a good number of English speakers here in case you need. We enjoyed the view and our private bath from our room. Room was definitely big compared to Tokyo. The bed was low and not as thick. I like abit of firm, but my partner does not. Dinner and breakfast was great and so much food. I didn't have good wifi days before we arrived, and I missed their message asking about substitution. We didn't want to make it a big deal since he was capable of comsuming fish, but just tired of eating it since it was a staple in many of our prior meals, so we told them it was ok if they couldn't do it. They were able to accommodate my partner's request to substitute fish at the last minute which was sweet of them and he really appreciated it. I would've liked to have tried out the onsen, and hope to be back in the Hakone area again. Staff was warm and helpful"Show more

The dinner was a huge buffet of japanese food: beef, sushi, tempura, salad, desserts and everything in between. The staff made our sleeping futons while we were out to dinner. The garden was full of roses and other flowers. Even though the wearher was cloudy and we couldnt see mt Fuji, the entire property was so peaceful. A welcome escape from our trip to the busier cities. The breakfast was also a large buffet.
The ropeway on either side of the hotel was out for maintance so we used the local bus. This was a great option as it allowed us to see the small towns in Hakone."Show more

"This place is very beautiful and although expensive, overall it was an amazing stay. The architecture is stunningly japanese, private open air bath in our room was great. I picked the ' Luxury Japanese Western Style Room with Open-Air Bath' room type. Beds are wide and comfortable, duplex apartment style. The full course kaiseki meals were delicious, with very attentive service throughout the whole stay. Great location in Hakone, free parking at the hotel, easy to get everywhere by car. The private family onsens (reservable at the reception) is seriously gorgeous and I would definitely recommend anyone to book a slot, regardless of whether they have their own private open air bath in their rooms or not. Only thing to note is that there is a 'stuffy' scent all around the complex, probably due to the hotel's very long standing traditional history. Besides that, everything was perfect for a romantic stay."Show more

TKP Hotel and Resort Lectore Hakone Gora
"Let me tell you that I was a bit apprehensive about this hotel because it had no reviews and because we got it at such a great rate - similar to what we'd pay for a 3-star hotel in the U.S. I honestly expected to be told that that price we paid was per person rather than per room and that we owed them three times as much as we had prepaid. I was also nervous because it had what looked like business facililities and so I guessed that they had primarily Japanese clientele and that there would a serious language barrier. Both fears were unfounded. The moment we walked in the door the hotel manager greeted us by our family name and welcomed us in!
Every inch of the hotel in and out was immaculately clean and new. We wanted to stay in a traditional Japanese hotel and it was. At the door of the hotel we were asked to take off our shoes, and we were given slippers for the inside of the hotel and bags for our shoes. The rooms had fresh tatami mats and, in the closets, futons and comforters for floor sleeping. The gardens around the hotel were lovely. The onsen was amazing. There is a typical sulphur spring and a gypsum sulfur spring-very hot! For westerners who may feel shy about bathing nude with others, I suggest you take advantage of your jet lag and visit the onsen in the middle of the night. I did at 3 a.m. and I had it all to myself.
Our room included a Japanese breakfast. What a wonderful experience! Please note that it is not a buffet, but a breakfast prepared specifically for your party and you should arrive on time. Our meal included Hakone flat fish and my four boys ages 7, 10, 13 & 14 are very picky eaters but they all raved about it! Everything was so fresh and so well executed."Show more

Hotel Hakone Terrace Annex
"When my husband told me that he booked a 2-star hotel, I have to say I was a reticent. However, when we arrived, I was pleasantly surprised!
The staff was friendly and helpful and kept our luggage after check-out which was greatly appreciated! They provided us with a map and told us about the restaurant hours etc. Although, we did not drive, this location has many parking spots.
The room was quite large (by Japanese standard) though it is important to note that you sleep on a futon on tatami mats (which we didn’t mind at all but might not be for everyone). The room was very clean and provided a great view! The only issue was that the bath didn’t drain so well.
It is about a 7-minute walk to Gora station. Everyone keeps mentioning how all restaurants close at 6pm but if you’re ready to walk a short 15-minute north-east (towards Chokokunomori station – or take a one-stop train ride from Gora to Chokokunomori), you will find Kappeizushi which is some of the best sushi we had in Japan. Their Chirashi-zushi (rice topped with assorted sashimi) is absolutely delicious. This place closes at 9pm. Not too far from there, close to the Lawson, Gyoza Center offers amazing gyoza! This place closes at 8pm. Finally, if you are a foodie, Itoh dining by Nobu is a MUST and a 5-minute walk from e-Rooms.
We also recommend visiting the Open-Air Museum. We really enjoyed it! It’s a 20-minute walk from e-rooms (or one-stop train ride away).
We STRONGLY recommend getting the Hakone Free Pass. This pass can be purchased from any Odakyu stations and offers unlimited usage of the Hakone Tozan Railway (Odawara-Gora), the Souzan Cablecar and Hakone Ropeway between Gora to Togendai, the Hakone Boats on Lake Ashinoko, and most buses.
We fell in love with Hakone and e-Rooms provided a very comfortable and enjoyable stay!"Show more

The place is clean and simple but very very small. Staff seem to be foreigners and do not seem like they're there to help. The toilets can be shared by both males and females which felt a bit strange to me. Thankfully I took a shower at the hot spring in Hakone so I didn't have to take a bath here."Show more

There was even a 50% discount for one of the onsen bathroom nearby if you bought the ticket from the guesthouse.
Room was very narrow as expected but it was not really a problem. There was a bar and was great for the night cos one thing not good about Hakone was almost all things ended by 5 and so at night it was either.. Chill out at the bar or having a NICE SOAK at the onsen.
Although I there for only 2 nights. I will always remembered my time in Hakone and this hostel. Highly recommended.
The BAD... the road to the hostel was UPHILL and it nearly killed me with a HEAVY luggage and a bad knee but it not a deal breaker cos there was actually a bus that stopped near the hostel. I myself to blame cos I not good in taking bus and I thought the hostel was near the train station."Show more

Onsen Guest House HAKONE TENT
"My friend and I travelled to Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto before arriving at Hakone Tent, and it was the best part of our trip. Even with our heavy luggages, getting to the inn from Gora station was easy. Gora is the best place to stay in Hakone as it is the terminal for the tram to see Mt Fuji, and a terminal for all major buses.
The interior of the inn touts a distinct hipster vibe, and the young, musically inclined team that run the place are friendly and accommodating. We requested to upgrade our 6-sharing room to a private room the next night, and both room types were immaculately clean and comfortable. The perk of the shared rooms is that you get to make a lot of friends.
In a town that shuts down once the sun sets, the common lounge is a great place to interact with the staff as well as local and international tourists. They have a bar that serves drinks and good food. Available is also a selection of musical instruments for you to flex your creative muscles. The two nights we stayed there, the staff mingled with guests, making sure everyone was having a good time.
Our next trip to Hakone, we will definitely repeat our stay in Harkone Tent.

K's House Hakone - Onsen Hostel
"K's House Hakone is the place to stay when in Hakone. This has been our home for our part 2 visits in Hakone. I can't recommend this place enough. This is where you should stay. Friendly & amazing staff, nice accommodations, an onsen both indoor & outdoor for all the guests. The best thing about this place are the people you meet while hanging out the common area or the kitchen. I super love cooking in the kitchen, best kitchen I've cooked in in Japan! Looking forward to future stays here in the future. <3"Show more

They treat you as their family. We got to play guitar and sing along with them and they cooked okonomiyaki for the guests. They were very helpful with directions and places to go.
The house was comfortable enough to feel like its your home too.
We will definitely go back.

"The host was very accommodating. You can leave your luggage before your check in time and also after your check out time. She also recommended a very nice and budget friendly onsen, about 20 meters away from the hotel. They have free coffee and green tea. She also cooks a delicious vegetable curry. It's also walking distance from both the Miyanoshita train and bus station. Excellent value for money. Would recommend it for Hakone tourists."Show more

Moto-Hakone Guest House
"I very much enjoyed staying at Moto-Hakone Guest House. The innkeeper spoke excellent English and gave me great sightseeing recommendations based on my interests. The room was comfortable and she explains the futon and robe for travelers who may not be familiar with Japanese customs. Only negative thing I noticed was that there was no air conditioning, which wasn't a problem that night as it was pretty cool but it could be an issue on hotter nights. I'd definitely recommend staying there though, it's accessible to so many great sites of Hakone!"Show more

"Our stay in Hotel Florence was above expectation! The location is great and easy to find, just a few minutes away from the station and a Daiso store, but sadly no convenience stores nearby, that we know of. It's a good place to set up base if you want to explore Hakone and beyond. The room itself is beautiful and spacious, it was always a delight waking up in it , you almost never want to leave.

Fuji-Hakone Guest House
"We had a wonderful stay at fuji-hakone guesthouse.
Location: near and walking distance from senkyoro-mae bus stop via hakone tozan bus T from Odawara or hakone-yumoto. Bus has english and tourist friendly even if you have big luggages. There's restaurant and convenience store near the place as well.
Staff: owner can converse in good english. Upon check in she's kind enough to ask us where we want to go and guide us how and directions. Answer all questions perfectly
Price: for the price and considering it's a ryokan the price is really affordable
Place and room: the room for couple or 2 is big enough for japan standard. We had really warm and nice bed to sleep after a whole day of walk. Heater helps a lot. Wifi is also 👍. Fast and always available all over the place. You can also buy food outside and eat them in the dinning area or in the room.
Onsen: we love the onsen of the guesthose,have indoor and outdoor onsen. The time and schedule is well organized for everyone."Show more

Posada Suimei
"I've stayed here five times now, and each time the experience is wonderful. The rooms are designed for solo travelers, so stay at the larger hotel across the street (same ownership, onsen, and management) if you're traveling with a partner and want to share a room. However, the Posada's rooms are cozy (but with a desk and workspace more than sufficient for a business trip), comfortable, and equipped with private bathrooms (with tub and shower - though I always bathe at the onsen because they're fantastic). This is my go-to hotel in Hakone, and I highly recommend it. It's also fine if you don't speak Japanese. The wonderful managers at the desk speak plenty of English to welcome foreign visitors, and they're delightfully kind and helpful people too."Show more

Ryokan Oyado Hakone Hachirinoyu
"Simple ryokan with basic amenities provided. Don’t expected much from this hotel with this value as it is a very simple hotel. Super clean and tidy, however location is quite hard to get to. Best is to travel with the Hakone Free Pass and minimum luggage because the ryokan is only accessible via the local bus (and you will travel a lot with the buses) and quite a walk up to the ryokan.
You can get to this ryokan by taking the Hakone Tozan Bus T (from Odawara), alight at Miyagino Eigyosho Mae stop and take about an 8-mins walk to the ryokan. There’s a 7-11 by the main road which is good enough for us to settle simple meals. Do remember to grab a bus map and schedule before getting there as you’ll need to refer to them a lot.
Overall it was a good stay and will recommend for the value, clean and simplicity of the ryokan. Super friendly staffs but not very proficient in English language."Show more

Manten No Hoshi Hotel
"Admittedly, because we were going to be in Japan across Golden Week price dictated my choices and Maten no Hoshi was the ryokan I ended up booking after falling in love with the pictures of the hotel. The rooms were large and clean, the food was delicious (we elected to have the ryokan provide us with breakfast and dinner), the staff spoke English and was very helpful. We did have to figure out how to set up our own futons, but with free wifi in the rooms that wasn't a problem. The shared women's toilet does seem to have been recently renovated and was always clean and spotless every morning. The onsen was the best part, they are open 24 hours and are shared-private. This means that while all the guests of the ryokan can use the onsen, but only your party is in the onsen when you are using it. So you aren't bathing with strangers and you don't have to worry about having to bathe separately from your husband. It was wonderful that they asked you when you wanted your meals so it was pretty easy to set up your day - you knew when you would get up and when you had to be back by. The meals were quite large and very filling. They were beautiful and you could tell a lot of work was put in to make them beautiful and tasty. You can tell it is an older facility in the process of renovating. The furniture in the rooms was a little dated and worn, but everything is very clean and fairly well maintained. Manten no Hoshi is located slightly off the beaten track in the smaller town of Ohiradai. It is sleepy and not very touristy, which was wonderful. It was very easy to get to Gora and see the park or Iriuda to see the weeping cherry blossom tree (which wasn't in bloom) or even just get back to Hakone-Yamuto. All in all, it was amazing and we are coming back for a second visit in early 2015 and are planning to stay here again!"Show more

Ryokan Masuya
"From first glance, the building may not seem like your typical fanciful ryokans. But the moment when one steps inside the ryokan, one is immediately greeted with warmth from the ryokan's owner.
Indeed, my stay at this ryokan has been made memorable and super enjoyable, all thanks to the owner's exceptional hospitality. His English may not be good but don't let that obstruct you from his kindness and generosity.
In fact, we were hit with Japan's first November snow in 54 years on the day that we were due to check out. Furthermore, all bus services within Hakone were stopped due to the sudden snow. Luckily, the owner was kind enough to offer us our current room and even gave us a discounted rate to tide the day over. On top of that, he also gave us free breakfast sets for the extra day that we had to stay over. What's more can I say?
This ryokan is a definite must for all those who wish to visit Hakone and of course, its onsen is top-notch too! I am going to return to this place when I save up enough money to visit Japan!"Show more

Upon arrival we were left for over 30 mins whilst they looked into our booking. Then charged us double the amount we had paid for 2 night for 2 people just to add the additional person into a room that we already had booked. Absolutely disgusting. The onsen is not a onsen at all and most of the females area was closed. There was no offer of pick up or drop off and the entire stay was tainted because of this hotel. Do NOT stay here"Show more

"We stayed at Hakone Suimeiso in early December 2016. It was our second time to Hakone and we had fond memories of our last stay as we had stayed Hakone Yumoto Hotel and we enjoyed it.
It is not difficult to find the hotel as it is about 5mins walk from the Hakone-Yumoto Station. The staff are very friendly and welcome you with traditional Japanese hospitality.
We stayed at the Japanese-Style Room with Open-Air Bath. The rooms are beautiful with simple zen style decor. However, the tub in the balcony was one of the highlight of the stay. Overlooking the flowing river with waterfall and beautiful autumn leaves you will enjoy a relaxing time listening to the sound of the waterfall. The tub comes with piped hot spring water. If you prefer an outdoor onsen it is available on the top floor of the hotel.
Dinner and breakfast was served in the private dining room on the same floor as our room and it was a wonderful spread of Japanese dining which even includes desert. The staff are very friendly and showed great hospitality. While eating your dinner the staff will lay down the futons in your room and while you are having breakfast they will keep them.
The hotel is so close to the shops around Hakone-Yumoto station and here you can find souvenirs and many wonderful local delights such as dried plums, Hakone rusk, rice cracker and even a nice cafe to sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee and some cheese cake.
You can purchase the Hakone Freepass which covers most of the transportation (train, bus, cable car, cruise) in the Hakone-Odawara area so that you can enjoy exploring the area.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hakone Suimeiso and it has further left a wonderful deep lasting memory of Hakone."Show more

Hotel Ra Kuun
"Hotel Ra Kuun was great, and I would highly recommend it. There are a few things to keep in mind. First, it's a long bus ride from Hakone Yumoto or Odawara (but pretty much everything is). BUt it's only a short 5 minute walk from the bus stop. Make sure to get the Hakone Free pass on arrival in this area. Buses are not cheap. Second, there are few to no restaurants in the area, so either order dinner and breakfast or bring food. We just brought food, so I have no opinion on Ra Kuun's food.
Their onsen (hot spring) is great. The inside onsen was a bit too hot, but the outside onsen was a great temperature. It was surrounded by nature and you can see the stars at night.
Wifi is available in the lobby and the rooms close by. So keep that in mind. It didn't bother me, but it might bother others.
All in all, a great place. Not super fancy, but it accomplishes everything you need at a great price."Show more

Right opposite Hakone Hotel, there is a little lane with Yugiriso hotel's japanese name but no English name. Walk inwards and u'll get there in a min.
Checking in was a breeze. I read reviews on the staff not being able to speak English at all so I was worried but the staff did speak English well and understood us. Even the room maid spoke a little English and she was so friendly. The hotel and room is really cosy. We felt very comfortable. There is an indoor and outdoor hot spring bath, cosy size too. Probably could fit 6-8ppl comfortably."Show more

Okay, so this place surely isn't the *bling-bling*, new and modern, luxurious hotel. But my experiences here were one of the best within my entire Japan trip. Great service, of course. But most importantly, the location... You "must" seek for a hotel near Hakone-Yumoto for optimal transportation experiences and other factors such as restaurants, souvenirs...
And the sceneries both inside and outside the hotel! Beautiful and very well maintained all-around.
The staff are not the greatest English speakers, but does enough to support your visit.
The only downside I can think of was the fact that the air-conditioning wasn't so great. But with the garden-view with the natural breeze through the windows were just enough for us any way.

"for a first-timer to hakone, hotel okada is an excellent choice for it is conveniently located near to hakone yumoto stn & has a shuttle bus (yen100) that runs between the stn to the hotel. even if you miss the last shuttle run (at 6pm), you still can walk to the hotel (10-15mins walk) and it is quite a pleasant and cooling walk for me.
okada spotted a nice location besides the river. the exterior & interior decor are very jap, just what i was lookng for to experience. i book the jap style accomo, sleeping in futon (fortunately the staff already made up the futon for us) and walking on tatami floor in the room, enjoying tea over the jap table setting, all adds on to a truely jap experience. i tried in indoor and outdoor onsen too, not a big onsen pool but was a good experience.
the hotel staff are very helpful too and they truely maintain this hotel clean and tidy. certainly worth the stay!
only thing i find that hotels in hakone generally can improve on is the check-in and check-out time. check-in at 3pm (after a long journey there) is tiring, and moreover having to checkout by 10am is just too early! but we can leave our lugguage at the conceige and continue sight-seeing till late."Show more

Service was excellent; most of the staff speak only Japanese but with Google Translate and lots of gestures, we got on just fine. Some of the lobby staff speak English so you won't be stranded. English menus and signs are all available. Their gift shop was lovely and OMG THE FOOD. SO MUCH FOOD. They serve you breakfast and dinner. You do not need lunch at all. The dishes were all unique, very Japanese, richly flavored, and perfectly made. Our room overlooked Mount Hakone and a lovely bamboo forest. The only warning I would give is that, since you're in the mountains with outdoor baths, be careful of the various insects that you might encounter. The ryokan itself is lovely and clean, but bugs around the outdoor baths cannot be helped."Show more

TKP Hotel and Resort Lectore Hakone Gora
"Let me tell you that I was a bit apprehensive about this hotel because it had no reviews and because we got it at such a great rate - similar to what we'd pay for a 3-star hotel in the U.S. I honestly expected to be told that that price we paid was per person rather than per room and that we owed them three times as much as we had prepaid. I was also nervous because it had what looked like business facililities and so I guessed that they had primarily Japanese clientele and that there would a serious language barrier. Both fears were unfounded. The moment we walked in the door the hotel manager greeted us by our family name and welcomed us in!
Every inch of the hotel in and out was immaculately clean and new. We wanted to stay in a traditional Japanese hotel and it was. At the door of the hotel we were asked to take off our shoes, and we were given slippers for the inside of the hotel and bags for our shoes. The rooms had fresh tatami mats and, in the closets, futons and comforters for floor sleeping. The gardens around the hotel were lovely. The onsen was amazing. There is a typical sulphur spring and a gypsum sulfur spring-very hot! For westerners who may feel shy about bathing nude with others, I suggest you take advantage of your jet lag and visit the onsen in the middle of the night. I did at 3 a.m. and I had it all to myself.
Our room included a Japanese breakfast. What a wonderful experience! Please note that it is not a buffet, but a breakfast prepared specifically for your party and you should arrive on time. Our meal included Hakone flat fish and my four boys ages 7, 10, 13 & 14 are very picky eaters but they all raved about it! Everything was so fresh and so well executed."Show more

Hakone Pax Yoshino
"Simply put . . . Loved it!
Being our first time traveling to Hakone and bringing a baby along, we were expecting a nightmare traveling by public transportation to Hakone. But instead, it wasn't so bad at all. What made our stay Hakone Pax Yoshino even better was that the front desk service was more than expected. Upon arrival I had requested that if it was possible to have one large bed instead of two separate beds. Initially they said it was impossible because their rooms are not set up that way. However after seeing that we were pushing along a baby stroller, they decided to go and have a look at the room to see if it was at all possible. After about five ten minutes later they came back and said yes, it was possible and that we can go up to our room now.
To help us with our troubles, the man that helped us check-in also came along and helped with our luggage. Once we went up to our room, we were so happy to find that they had already pushed the beds together and everything was set-up correctly for us! A simple yet close to heart service!
The only negative that we have is that the in-room shower was actually outside - meaning it was still our private shower but it was located next to the nice private outside onsen tub! How were we to give our baby a bath in the winter?! For adults it was fine and part of the experience but for a baby, it would not do. Therefore the only solution was to give our baby his bath in the public hot bath room. This was the only not so convenient aspect of our stay. But other than that, I would recommend this hotel for the nice hospitality, quality food, and simple private bath!"Show more

"It was a superb experience and relaxing for our honeymoon, 4 days in tokyo was tiring, we arrived in the afternoon, the staff makes us welcome even more when they asked about our passport, our trip, they took of our sandals, put them on a desginated drawer with our name in it, felt really special, one host one guest experience, they lead us to the rooms and facilities of the ryokan while wearing a yukata, they have private onsen which you can use with your own time, they have male and female onsen which has the theme of natural one and the one with the big bowl in it, it was super relaxing and higher than our expectation, the room was spacious and comfy futon, the downside is only the food aren't that great, we had a breakfast, we didn't take the dinner plan since its 4.000 yen each, i recommend upon check in, just go to oook for restaurant for a late dinner before 5 p.m since everything is practically closed in hakone after 5 p.m, we managed to find little restaurant near hakone yumoto station. Overall it was super great and beware the onsen was crazy hot temperature but its japan standard, and they have koi pond. Relaxing !!! Best day in japan."Show more

"The General Manager was extremely accommodating and helpful. The dinner and breakfast is amazing (so many courses) quite focused on seafood and the view onto the garden amazing also. Baths are lovely, splurge if you want a private bath. The location is great 5 minutes from the train station. I would say leave enough time to get there as it is out of the way (slightly) however really is the heart of Hakone. The next day we did a day trip to Mount Fuji and the Lake and it was very close by. Just make sure you leave enough time to arrive. We arrived late and I wish we had checked in earlier to enjoy a bit more."Show more

Hotel Hatsuhana
"The most relaxing experience and most extravagant kiseki dinner. The kiseki dinner lived up to the hype. We wanted to do the ryokan experience at a smaller location but this had the onsens directly in the hotel. But the Japanese style room was just as worth it.
Standard Japanese room was so clean and beautiful. Sleeping on the floor was actually relaxing. Only downfall was that dinner was not served in the room. Rather in a restaurant.
The location is about a 20 min free shuttle ride to the main Yumoto train station. However not much else to do around there. But the scenery is beautiful.
Highly recommend in the middle of or at the end of your trip to Japan after walking for so much in Kyoto and Tokyo."Show more

"The hotel is beside the river, and you can have hot spring outdoor facing a beautiful mountain view.
Food is really good quality. And services is excellent. Not many staff can speak English but still can provide a good service.
For transportation, you can go to hotel from Hakone-Yumoto directly by bus, only 4 stop and bus stop just in front of the hotel.
You can still try taking train but not recommend for anyone bring heavy luggage, because it takes about 10 mins walk."Show more

"After a long day doing the Hakone loop - tram, ropeway, cruise on lake Ashi then bus; the last thing I needed was a 20 min uphill hike through small roads by the highway through a forest to get to this hotel. However, the hot spring bath, delicious dinner and Japanese style breakfast at this ryokan made this a very memorable experience. It is difficult to get to this hotel especially if you miss their shuttle at the train station but all in all, I was very satisfied with my stay here."Show more

"Located in the wood this place have such a unique atmosphere. Style of rooms, eating, clothing - all of it makes you feel true Japanese atmosphere. Staff is really kind and helpful, even helping with unusual food at the dinner time and wearing yukata) Garden and nature around are peaceful and beautiful. We spend here jast 1 nigh in traditional Japanese room with dinner and breakfast and it was one of the best of our Japanese trip experience. Think we should stay here for two or three nights to waks around hakone more. P. S
Also we was happy to see snow in the garden at the beginning of the April. But cold weather is not a problem, because of a nice onsen in this ryokan."Show more

Rikyuan Hotel
"This traditional inn was the highlight of our stay in Japan. I would suggest staying in the main area of Hakone and travel to the hotel when you are ready to set in. There is a shuttle that goes to the hotel, but it takes almost a hour to get there and it will cost you about 8 bucks. If you go before 2 PM you will get a early check-in charge. It is high up in the mountains so i is very peaceful. The pictures that I found of the place really did not give the place the true justice. It is so beautiful inside and out. We had a room with out own private onsen and we used it as much as we could.
When we checked in while we were filling out paperwork they gave us green tea and sweets to help relax us and get us in the mood for relaxation which was something myself and my husband needed. We were shown to our room and shown if we wanted to hold a time for the larger onsen. In the room is a refrigerator with drinks, if you take any you will be charged for them. So go to family mart close by"Show more

Hakone Kowakien TEN-YU
"Hakone Kowakien Tenyu met my expectation in every way. We are a family of 4 and have booked 2 rooms for our stay. Our flight to Tokyo was delayed by 2 days due to Typhoon so we didn't have time to enjoy Hakone before our hotel checkin. We had a day tour in Tokyo instead and was dropped off to the hotel by our driver at 7:00pm. Due to our change in plan, we had to cancel our spa reservation at this hotel.
With our reservation package, each lady/girl received a very pretty yukata kimono to wear during our stay and to bring home. We dressed and had an excellent multi course Kaiseki meal at their restaurant. Staff were attentive and provided excellent service. My daughter is allergic to fish and they designed a totally different menu for her to enjoy.
After dinner, my daughters enjoyed the private spring soak in their room while I tried the public bath. It was a great experience. The whole place is zen and tranquil. The outdoor bath is an infinity pool with an excellent view.
The next morning, we woke up early and enjoyed their beautiful scenery and private garden. We took lots of beautiful photos in our kimonos. Later we tried the other outdoor public bath which showcased a natural waterfall with beautiful rocks surrounding the area. Our skin and hair felt so smooth and glowing after the bath.
Their multicourse breakfast in Japanese and Western styles were both excellent. You can tell that they put an effort in ensuring guests have a good experience here.
Reception staff helped us arranged a taxi transfer to the train station. Everything went well.
Their gift shop carries lots of local and private brand products which are all reasonably priced. I bought all my Hakone souvenirs from here.
Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for your stay in Hakone. I feel refreshed after the night. Next time I will try their spa service."Show more

Hakone Hisui Hotel
"Having previously visited Hakone ten years ago, we really wanted to return after a busy few days exploring Tokyo. Hakone Hisui is a beautiful, and relaxing retreat; a place where you can really kick back and restore the equilibrium amongst the peaceful surroundings. Please note, the hotel mainly caters to Japanese clientele, so English is not widely spoken. However, the staff will really go above and beyond to make sure you are looked after. At dinner for example, their only English speaking chef, Yu, was introduced to us, letting us know that we could refer to him if we had any questions about the food. The Teppanyaki dinner, which was cooked for us by the executive chef, was exquisite and we’d highly recommend it. Thanks again for such wonderful service."Show more

Hakone is a beautiful place with nature where you can see mountains, lakes and maple leaves (Autumn season) their transportation are slow but nice and calming.

There are many hiking trails. We only stayed 2 nights so we only had time to visit Lake Ashi and hike around Hakone Sekicho.

We stayed at a ryokan. My wife and I enjoyed the scenery and the onsen. The cable car ride was interesting, but there really wasn't much to see other than the sulfur pits.

Ho, Hong Kong
It's a famous hot spring area. Very peaceful & comfortable to walk around the forest. It's quite dark at night, but no worry, Japan has the lowest crime rate in the world.
Yick Kan, Hong Kong
Love this place! There is Gotemba Factory outlet nearby, you can see mt FUji on a clear day and plenty of sightseeing opportunity!
Jasmine, Singapore
It is easy to drive around and the hotsprings are relaxing. It would be better to spend about 5 days stay so as to see and enjoy more around the place.
Theresa, Singapore
Loved Hakone! 1 day is not enough, would come back again and for longer stay for more relaxing experience!
Riku, Finland
Definitely a must visit if you are visiting Japan. If you travel between Tokyo-Kyoto, just stay here for a night, be sure to go early.
Yongky, Canada
Full of onset every corner that you turn. We were even able to soak our tired feet in a hot stone pool outside a shop for free! There are lots of food to try and taste for free too and one can decide to buy back home after trying or simply walk away and yet not be stared at or scolded for tasting and not buying.
Veronica, Singapore
Lovely place for sightseeing and relaxation. Buy the Hakone pass to access free and cheaper facilities around the area.
stephanie, Singapore
A great place for rest and relax with onsen, don't be surprise you might end up seeing Mount Fuji while onsen if you have chosen the hotel near to it.
wee ling, Singapore
Hakone is beautiful!, one caution though is to avoid vacationing there on a public Holiday in Japan as it can get too crowded.

Hakone provided great sightseeing tours with the Fuji mount. view and the lake. Besides, there are also a lot of attractive locations for handicraft and art works to visit.

It is nice to stay here and do on-sen.. You should stay up higher on the mountIain.. Check the time table for public transportation properly otherwise you will end up with expensive shuttle car.

"We never give reviews for hotels which we stay at. However, I thought I would do justice to The Prince Hakone Hotel by writing a short review on it.
We arrived at the hotel on one misty night, and sighted the hotel from afar. It looked magical, sitting in all that mist.
Upon checking in, we went to the outdoor onsen, which was simply rejuvenating. Not to mention the sealy mattress which we provided in the room. It felt like resting on a cloud. We awoke next morning, feeling simply recharged.

Laforet Club Hakone Gora Yunosumika
"Hotel is modern, well maintained, clean and luxurious for a modern ryokan. We stayed in a room with private outdoor Onsen and it was so convenient, but the communal Onsen faces an outdoor garden and provided a much more relaxing feel. Onsen shower amenities were good quality and evidently well thought.
Meals were excellent and hotel staff were very attentive of family with young children, providing wet wipes, colouring materials, baby utensils...almost without having to request. I also liked it they had a separate kid-friendly dining area and quieter couple area which made it less stressful if you were with young kids.
Location at Gora was honestly very out of the way, but we had a car and liked quieter private retreats so this suited us perfectly. Very near to the Hakone open air museum.
Recommend to get full board so you can have dinner at the hotel which is really a good meal experience and hassle free as u won’t need to find food down the hill.
Would love to come back!"Show more

"This is one of the hotels in Hakone area that offers single room, but I actually got a room with two beds. The room is actually pretty roomy for Japan; it even has a sofa chair and desk area. The service is great, I deposit my luggage at front desk before checkin time, when I came back a front desk staff walked me to my room with luggage already inside. Right across the street from Hakone Yumoto station, very good location. The hot spring is very enjoyable. However, this hotel is pretty pricy. Dinner sets cost from 5500yen and up. Rental of DVD player is also 5000+yen per night. No wifi, and the lobby pay computer is really slow. Overall a convenient hotel if you can book it for a good price."Show more

Hakone Pax Yoshino
"Simply put . . . Loved it!
Being our first time traveling to Hakone and bringing a baby along, we were expecting a nightmare traveling by public transportation to Hakone. But instead, it wasn't so bad at all. What made our stay Hakone Pax Yoshino even better was that the front desk service was more than expected. Upon arrival I had requested that if it was possible to have one large bed instead of two separate beds. Initially they said it was impossible because their rooms are not set up that way. However after seeing that we were pushing along a baby stroller, they decided to go and have a look at the room to see if it was at all possible. After about five ten minutes later they came back and said yes, it was possible and that we can go up to our room now.
To help us with our troubles, the man that helped us check-in also came along and helped with our luggage. Once we went up to our room, we were so happy to find that they had already pushed the beds together and everything was set-up correctly for us! A simple yet close to heart service!
The only negative that we have is that the in-room shower was actually outside - meaning it was still our private shower but it was located next to the nice private outside onsen tub! How were we to give our baby a bath in the winter?! For adults it was fine and part of the experience but for a baby, it would not do. Therefore the only solution was to give our baby his bath in the public hot bath room. This was the only not so convenient aspect of our stay. But other than that, I would recommend this hotel for the nice hospitality, quality food, and simple private bath!"Show more

Luckily the hotel sent a van to pick my up from the nearest train station Gora 5 minutes after I had called them, saving me from walking all the way up the hill with my bulky luggage. A thing about the hotel is that it doesn't provide traditional Japanese dinner as onsen hotels usually do. That's a pity...

Tipping is not customary in Japan, but this staff deserved tips more than anyone we have ever encountered and it felt wrong not tipping.

Hakone Tenseien Hotel
"From the Hakone-Yumoto Station, you can use the overpass bridge to cross the street. There is a Tourist information office there. In front of the tourist info office is a bus stop for min-bus A, B & C. Bus A is going to Hotel Tenseien and will cost 100 yen per person (as of May 2016) and will take about 15 min., mostly because of the traffic because the streets are very narrow. We walked one night from Hakone-Yumoto to Hotel and it took us about 20 min. I think that was around 9:30pm and there’s no more Bus A… The bus stop for Bus A going back to Hakone-Yumoto station is just outside the hotel. Very convenient.
Before the main hotel entrance is a bridge and a river…very cool!
The Hotel is amazing. It’s very clean. Shoes are not allowed anywhere inside the hotel. There are shoe cabinets by the entrance and you must keep the keys.
The room is big for japan standard. The toilet is a bit small. Our room window is facing the waterfalls…nice view. They provide Yukata (robe) for everyone so you get that Japanese feeling. They have slippers for everyone to use whenever you want to explore the garden, the shrine, around the pond and if you want to enjoy the beauty of the 2 waterfalls…..again, amazing view.
They have a 24-hour shop. They have I think 24-hour Onsen on the rooftop which is the best! The amenities are great! They have steam-bath, Sauna, indoor and outdoor onsen….yes on the roof top…under the sky…under the stars.I want to go back now.
They have relaxation room and they provide massage services.
This place is totally the most relaxing hotel I have ever been.

"I booked and stayed in this property because it's close to Hakone area and hotel provide shuttle bus to Odawara station, in which we can use our Hakone Free Pass to explore Hakone area. What make me surprise, staying in this hotel and using all the facilities actually really enjoyable, and I'm thinking that we should spend more time exploring what this hotel offer to their guest rather than roam around 2 days in Hakone (which windy and foggy by the time I'm there). You can enjoy Japanese traditional bath in this hotel (very well maintain, well equipped), or you can enjoy an excellent modern water spa facility (they have many pools that the designer really maximize on how water should be enjoyable, such as walking pool, water pressure massage, spinning pool, jacuzzi, etc). They even have whole body hair dryer, swimwear dryer, etc as part of this water spa facility. I haven't got time to explore more other facility than their Onsen and Water Spa (Bade Zone they called it). But to sum it up, it is an excellent resort to enjoy. Just spend your time inside this resort, no need to explore around except you stay more than 3 nights. They have also Golf coaching lesson, painting lesson, etc (I'm not exploring all)."Show more

TKP Hotel and Resort Lectore Hakone Gora
"Let me tell you that I was a bit apprehensive about this hotel because it had no reviews and because we got it at such a great rate - similar to what we'd pay for a 3-star hotel in the U.S. I honestly expected to be told that that price we paid was per person rather than per room and that we owed them three times as much as we had prepaid. I was also nervous because it had what looked like business facililities and so I guessed that they had primarily Japanese clientele and that there would a serious language barrier. Both fears were unfounded. The moment we walked in the door the hotel manager greeted us by our family name and welcomed us in!
Every inch of the hotel in and out was immaculately clean and new. We wanted to stay in a traditional Japanese hotel and it was. At the door of the hotel we were asked to take off our shoes, and we were given slippers for the inside of the hotel and bags for our shoes. The rooms had fresh tatami mats and, in the closets, futons and comforters for floor sleeping. The gardens around the hotel were lovely. The onsen was amazing. There is a typical sulphur spring and a gypsum sulfur spring-very hot! For westerners who may feel shy about bathing nude with others, I suggest you take advantage of your jet lag and visit the onsen in the middle of the night. I did at 3 a.m. and I had it all to myself.
Our room included a Japanese breakfast. What a wonderful experience! Please note that it is not a buffet, but a breakfast prepared specifically for your party and you should arrive on time. Our meal included Hakone flat fish and my four boys ages 7, 10, 13 & 14 are very picky eaters but they all raved about it! Everything was so fresh and so well executed."Show more

Break down:
- Room: Spacious with adjoining balcony. Rooms came with water, wifi, and tea/coffee
- Bed: Comfortable. Had two double beds pushed together wasn't expected ideal.
- Bathroom: Great and spacious
- Restaurant: Great quality food. With 3 course meal and drinks it was around 200 AUD total.
- Staff: Exceptional. Very friendly.
- Location: We had a car so access wasn't an issue. Was removed from the main area of Hakone making it peaceful.
- Facilities: Has a grand fire place with arranged free drinks for the guests which was great. The onsen was great too unfortunately was segregated by sex.

Yumoto Station Hotel MIRAHAKONE
"The room is exactly what we needed for overnight stay - cozy, clean, complete with needed items, and best of all, friendly and polite staff who were super helpful. We also loved the nice guide paper they prepared for going around Hakone.
An added bonus is the Italian restaurant below, also with friendly staff and great pizza! "Show more

Onsen Hotel Gorakan
"If you are looking for a true onsen ryokan experience, this is the right place. We booked the room with breakfast and dinner provided, japanese cuisine includes some raw fish. You can also book the private onsen or use the public onsen which is open 24 hours. Please do respect the property and the owners, lower down your volume. Get the Hakone 2 or 3 days pass if you will be travelling around as it includes the various transportation provided near the hotel. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back again if we are in Hakone."Show more

Hakone Retreat villa 1/f
"Hakone Retreat was definitely a highlight of my husband’s and my honeymoon trip to Japan. The staff was very attentive and so so helpful! Even though we only stayed one night, they were so kind and hospitable!
We stayed in the Tarumi villa, which had a wonderful private onsen. This was perfect to soak in after a long traveling day and before leaving to visit the local art museums.
We hope to spend time here again with our families!"Show more

Hakonenomori Okada Hotel
"me and my wife stayed at hokonenomori okada hotel for a night on the way from tokyo to kyoto. heard a lot of good reviews about hakone. we took shinkansen train from tokyo to hakone-yumoto station. from there we bought 2 days hakone pass. we took a local train to hakone town and from there took local bus to hotel okada.
we had to go through the hotel okada reception before reaching hakonenomori okada hotel which was at the back of hotel okada. the surroundings scenery was beautiful and full of greens. we enjoyed the natural, forest surroundings, cool air and quiet environment.
the stayed at the japanese style room and to our delight the room was huge. the scenary from the balcony of our room was beautiful. the room amenities were essential and had a wonderful time there.
the hotel provided onsen for their guests. the onsen was lovely.
the only setback of the hotel was food as there were no shops around. we had to stock up food from hakone town for the next morning breakfast. at night we ate at the hotel's restaurant. food was fantastic but was a little expensive. we were expecting that as eating out in restaurants in japan was costly.
overall we really had an enjoyable time in hakononomori okada hotel and would definately recommend it to our friends."Show more

Dinner and breakfast were amazing also and the staff was super friendly and spoke pretty good English! Would definitely recommend this hotel!"Show more

Fuji-Hakone Guest House
"We had a wonderful stay at fuji-hakone guesthouse.
Location: near and walking distance from senkyoro-mae bus stop via hakone tozan bus T from Odawara or hakone-yumoto. Bus has english and tourist friendly even if you have big luggages. There's restaurant and convenience store near the place as well.
Staff: owner can converse in good english. Upon check in she's kind enough to ask us where we want to go and guide us how and directions. Answer all questions perfectly
Price: for the price and considering it's a ryokan the price is really affordable
Place and room: the room for couple or 2 is big enough for japan standard. We had really warm and nice bed to sleep after a whole day of walk. Heater helps a lot. Wifi is also 👍. Fast and always available all over the place. You can also buy food outside and eat them in the dinning area or in the room.
Onsen: we love the onsen of the guesthose,have indoor and outdoor onsen. The time and schedule is well organized for everyone."Show more

Tounosawa Ichinoyu Shinkan Hotel
"Really big room. The dinner and breakfast are Japanese style, fantastic. 5 mins walk to train station. You can arrange lugguage delivery at Hakone Yumoto train station to hotel then you can go for the round trip around Hakone without burden. Only way back from hotel to Hakone Yumoto need to carry the lugguage. But the steps are most downwards then and there's slope at right side. It's not so difficult for lugguage carrying. No free shuttle bus to Hakone Yumoto. Train is the best solution."Show more

More about Hakone
Located about three hours to the west of Tokyo, Hakone is a beautiful city of mountains, lakes, and relaxing hot springs. The small city doesn’t have its own airport, so the best access for international visitors is to fly into Narita Airport and take a train to Owakudani Train Station.
Because of the area’s mountainous landscape, hiking is a popular way of enjoying the elements while also trying to get views of Mount Fuji. After a long hike, perhaps take advantage of what many of the hotels in Hakone feature - the ever-popular Japanese activity of soaking in a therapeutic hot springs bath. The Hakone Kowakien Yunessun is a favorite destination for experiencing these baths, and the place offers exciting options such as a very unique sake bath, as well as many other creative varieties.
On the picturesque Ashinoko Lake can be found the Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park, a very popular destination for people who visit this area. The active volcanic activity makes it a great draw for hot springs and spas, which is a very popular activity in this region. A visit to a hot springs bath found in this area, while enjoying stunning views of Mount Fuji, is the ideal and typical experience.
There are many museums in Hakone, but the Hakone Open-Air Museum is an art and nature lover’s dream, offering stunning artworks and sculptures in an open-air setting. In a region that is famous for its unique air and stunning natural landscapes, walking around a park-like structure full of art work is a great way to spend a relaxing day.
