Great staying experience. Staff provides very good service. Every staff I interacted with spoke good English. The indoor and outdoor onsen make our experience even better. Food is good quality though a little expensive. Overall, it’s worth the money spent.

The staff were all excellent and went above and beyond to accommodate your needs. The views and scenery around the hotel are also stunning however the hotel itself is quite dated and while the food was really good, it was the most expensive we had in Japan.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. Great views of the lake and Fuji. The lift to the top of Mt. Hakone was an easy walk, and the hotel offers frequent buses to the town and Odawara station. The room was cool and well kept, and we enjoyed the restaurant and unique architecture.

RUBEN, Toronto

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
The property itself is undeniably beautiful—nestled right by the lake with serene views and a peaceful atmosphere. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the food was reasonably good. However, all of that is completely overshadowed by one major issue: the discriminatory ban on tattooed guests using the onsen. Nowhere in the hotel rules or booking information was this restriction disclosed. Had I known, I would have never booked this hotel. Being refused access to a key amenity that is part of the experience—especially in a hotel of this caliber—is incredibly disappointing and feels exclusionary. It’s 2025. This kind of outdated policy should either be reconsidered or clearly communicated upfront. Beautiful setting or not, I won’t be returning—and I hope others take this into consideration before booking.

Spacious room, very dated and in need for refurbishment. Very limited dining options, very expensive especially for children. Staff are great and very attentive. Shuttle service infrequent and no taxi options early morning. Onsen was good, very clean and great views from outdoor bath.

If you want a very quiet remote place to stay with great views of Lake Ashi and Mt Fuji this is the place to stay. The bus station is a 5 min walk if that.

Great Hotel with Beautiful Views

The hotel offers a shuttle service that picks you up from the train station, which is convenient. However, it doesn’t provide any guidance for visiting Mount Fuji, so we had to navigate on our own using the Hakone Travel Pass. It would have been much easier if there had been a tour guide or tourist bus that took us directly, even if we had to pay for it. Another area for improvement is the internet, which was a bit unreliable and sometimes cut out at night. The room was comfortable but could use some improvements. It featured an electric kettle and a fridge, which were great for enjoying tea in the evening. The onsen was excellent, with wonderful hot spring water, although the facility could benefit from some updates and a bit more attention to its decor. Overall, the experience was great. The hotel offers stunning lake views with a glimpse of Mount Fuji, but if you want a closer view, the hotel doesn't provide any services to help with that. As foreigners, we were unable to rent a car, so we had to rely on local transport in Hakone, which made getting around a bit slower. Still, everything was overall very good.
