Very Good

We loved this hotel but we love hostels too and this reminded me of a nice hostel. So comfortable and staff was extremely helpful and just nice!
It's not fancy but super clean and we loved the breakfast. There were a few western options but it's fun to see what the rest of the world is eating at 7 o'clock in the morning!

Good stay.
Very conveniently located with friendly and helpful staff.
Spacious room and comfortable beds!
Bonus- it has a nice onsen that was a great place to go after all day activities.
Needs a bit of updating/refreshing.
The location is the main plus. Very near restaurants and transport. At first we thought, there was a bad smell in the room, but then we realized that the whole town is in a volcanic area that smells of sulphur. The room was comfortable enough but unremarkable. Seemed a bit pricey for what was offered. Friendly, helpful staff.
Across from station , lots of restaurants around, next to the mono rail , bus in front,. FREE dinner and breakfast excellent , personal onsen cheap or free public
The property’s location is a big plus—just across the railroad tracks from the station, the first building down the hill (a little better signage in English on the railroad side would be very helpful). The local bus stops are nearby as well. There is not much to choose from nearby meal wise, so the “board” options here are a must—a buffet that we found agreeable at both dinner and breakfast (limited options in Western terms, though). Would I stay here again if in the Gora area? Most likely.

Location was good but beds were uncomfortable
The location was good as it is very close to Gora station. However, there is no English hotel name indicated hence we had to ask the information counter on where is the hotel. Will be good to indicate English hotel name near the bus stop/ station. The room was quite small and the beds were not too comfortable to sleep on. All the adults had backeache upon waking up and did not sleep well throughout the night. The toilet was small and looks like those toilet used in the cruise. Overall ok for just one night stay.

Good location, old structure
The location of the hotel is perfect, just 1 minute away from Gora station. The building however is quite old and the carpet in the room had a funny smell. We had dinner and breakfast included, which are a nice buffets with some wester food as well. I suggest to include both meals, as there are no restaurants open in the area during the evening.
We stayed one night at Gora Hotel Paipu No Kemuri in late October 2018. Like all the other posts, the hotel was right across the railroad tracks from Gora Station. Very easy to get to. We had to get to the hotel by 6 PM since we booked with half board (dinner & breakfast). I am not sure if there are food establishments nearby since our stay came with meals. The dinner and breakfast was good (buffet style), actually better than I expected, but probably changes on a daily basis. The staff did not speak much English, but we did not have an issue. The outside bath was nice after a long day of travelling. The noise from the busses and trains were a bit loud, but that did not bother me. Overall it is what I expected after reading the reviews.

Bring ear plugs
On paper this hotel and location looked good. Unfortunately, it is right next to the train line, which runs trains every 15 minutes between 5:30am and 11:30pm. If you get a room on that side then make sure you have ear plugs if you want any sleep.
My recommendation is to stay down the mountain and do Gora etc. as a day trip. There is nothing in Gora to warrant staying there for. Most hotels are self contained, and anything outside shuts early.

Good choice, near Gora Station
You must book breakfast and dinner (buffet) with the hotel. Can't find good food outside, a small town. The hotel will charge you another 150 yen per person even you have fully paid. Service is good. Location is great just short walk from the station. Easy to catch the Cale car. You have not much choice in Gora station with private bathroom. The reception is located in B1.
Nice hotel next to the train station. Breakfast was not that great, Dinner was OK. Staffs were not good with English but they tried to help. The room on the other side of the train tracks were great, we didn't hear any noise from trains.

too expensive too expensive too expensive too expensive
Absolutely the best location! A short walk from Gora Station. 2 single beds comfortable for my sister & me. Wonderful onsen separate for men/woman, outdoor bath & indoor bath. The capsule style bathroom in the room was our least favorite part of the room. We would stay again.
We had dinner in Hakone Yumoto at 808 Pizza & it was the best Naples style pizza well worth the 40 min switch back train ride.
The little town of Gora closes down abour 6. Make sure you include buffet style modest breakfast for $5. Which Starts at 7:30 am or you will go hungry until late morning. The tonkatsu restaurant about 2 blocks away closes at 7 pm. We did not get the dinner buffet.
Disappointing for what we paid. This is a budget hotel really. Great location, but otherwise poor.

2 nights spent.
Lack of English referencing on information signs, brochures, restaurant was disappointing.
Bed very hard.
Unaware of the local tax for hot springs - wether any hot springs used or not. It was raised at check in.
The Y100 all you can eat evening meal was fantastic value which is the key point of recommendation.
