My room was clean and spacious. The staff are extremely kind and helpful but also very hands off, giving you lots of privacy and freedom. The space is quirky and cool! Definitely a unique place to stay with local character- no frills onsen open to guests and not trying to be something its not. I would definitely come back here if I am ever in Hakone. Thank you so much

Great traditional experience
It was a cold rainy day in Hakone, ruining our plans for visiting. Yet the Ryokan's staff have done everything (transporting us by car, offering us traditional food )to make us enjoy this experience. The hotspring inside the hotel was great and very natural.

This small hotel is cozy. The onsen is beautiful & very enjoyable because it’s private. You have the option of eating at two nearby restaurants with free transportation (included in your meal) . But everything is really far away and either requires 30 min of walking or a minimum of one hour on bus.

Very cheap with private indoor and outdoor onsen. You will need to reserve but it’s very easy. Location is 20 minute walk from the tram or 5 minute walk from bus station. Very far up in the mountains will be very expensive taxi I would recommend taking bus or tram. Facility is not the cleanest and rooms aren’t the nicest but the price is very good for what you get. Only major complaint is the pillows which are just bags with rice lol.

Next time we stay in Hakone, we will stay right near the Hakone station. The staff at this property was an amazing host. Very kind and helpful. The facilities were worn down and we all got bug bites on us. The futons were very old and the pillows were very uncomfortable. The onsen wasn't very clean either and there are no dining options nearby. It was very quiet and had a nice view. Stay at another place by Hakone Station instead. ((but we did love the Host very much- just not this propery))

Comparing the prices around, I guess we got what we paid for. This spot is like someone's house with 7 bedrooms. The best part about this space is the fact that they have private onsen for you and your partner to use base on a signup sheet. Other than that, I would not recommend staying here. If you are taking the bus with your luggage, stay clear because this spot is located on a big hill. The best route that google map will lead you to is from a dirt trail. Inside is old and nothing seems to be together. They had 2 onsen but 1 is constantly closed. It wasn't a bad stay, but I wouldn't be back.

I had the most amazing time staying in this very beautiful ryokan. It was a very authentic experience and I was very satisfied. I even got a lift to the bus stop when I left.
The mattress was a bit hard, but I do think I could’ve had one more on top if I had asked.
It’s traditional and authentic, do not expect a 5 star hotel, but embrace the place.
I would definitely recommend!

Serene
The gentleman working at the front desk is calm and kind, setting the mood of our stay. I slept so well in the dark quiet of the mountains, especially nice after a relaxing time in the onsen, which they allow you to use privately. In the day hearing the delightful song 🎵 of the uguisu bird was magical.
A tip on riding the bus to the hotel: let the bus driver know you want to get off at when you board (the long name of bus stop has the word “Palace” in it), because our driver overshot the bus stop and we had to walk back. Also, there is a map across the street from the bus stop (if you are coming from Togendai). There is an asphalt road to walk. Go up it and turn left at first corner. It’s not far from bus stop.
I would totally stay there again if I go. It’s an economical place to experience Hakone!

Nous avons passés une très bonne nuit. Le ryokan est facile d'accès, bien entretenu et le personnel était très agréable. 3 onsens sont disponibles dont 1 qui est réservable donc vous allez forcément pouvoir accéder à une session ce qui est très appréciable. Merci !

Virkelig hyggeligt sted. Ligger centralt i Kyoto - ikke ved Gion og de turistede steder, men centralt ift offentlig transport. Det er nok det hyggeligste sted vi boede på vores 2 måneders rejse.

Chambre propre, agréable à vivre.
La dame qui nous a accueilli était adorable !
On a pu faire un osen, franchement trop bien !
Si quieres un lugar tranquilo al que llamar casa este es tu sitio
Si bien no está lo más limpio posible en cuanto a estancias comunitarias tiene un encanto único que hace que la pulcritud de los más exigentes pase a segundo plano
Súper recomendable
