Our room was lovely and the onsen were amazing. There were plenty of time slots available and the staff was so helpful and kind especially with my young children. They even brought my 3 year old some crackers to cheer her up when she was cranky at breakfast. There are toys available in the lobby. It really feels like they thought of everything! I’m so happy we were able to have this first experience at a ryokan as a family. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a8322c42-7464-4e5f-9a51-6e3daa47e3c9-1761480576683.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5343510d-4212-4277-a595-e80632e3b0ac-1761480577471.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Natalie Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mikko 7 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great private Onsen hotel ##### Mikko Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Prathima 28 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Amazing Ryoken & onsen experience ##### Prathima Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David 1 Jun 2025 Liked: Amenities Staff was so good.

Peaceful and very serene. I enjoyed walking around the town, visiting the Rose Garden, and eating at local eateries. I would highly recommend this Ryokan for people wanting the onsen experience, as you can request it privately. That was the main reason why I chose this onsen. I highly recommend this Ryokan. ##### Christina Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Truong 28 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This place is a great place to enjoy a private onsen and nice staff.

Clean, with private onsens you can use twice per day (or more). Very friendly staff. Highly recommend! Tip: take a taxi from the train station, it is a 15 min walk but very uphill. Also, for fine dining you can walk 10 minutes to the Hyatt that has two nice restaurants incl. sushi. ##### Anna Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Megan 24 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was our luxury stay in Japan. We absolutely loved the traditional ryokan and the private onsen was just dreamy. We had the option to book an hour every morning and evening—we just booked in the evening because in the morning we are usually ready to get our day started (and I think the bookings started maybe at 8am?). We loved the little walk down the hill to the train station—it was a pretty walk. While in Halone, Gora Park is a MUST—it is so beautiful and there is so much to see. I’d also recommend the Hakone Free Pass, which covered all of our transportation, the visit to Gora Park, and lots more! We’d definitely stay here again! ![The view from our window that overlooked the walkway to the front of the hotel. ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bc437b95-300a-4d9e-b56f-be3c84b7d851-1750727517886.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Room service—shrimp rice, butter chicken, and vegetable curry.

I really enjoy coming here for the spacious and comfy room, relaxing private onsen, tasty traditional dinner and breakfast, and kind staff. Whenever I visit Japan, I try to make a stop here to wind down. Looking forward to booking here again. ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### EE VON 8 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very tranquil stay with helpful staff.

It’s way up a steep hill and not an easy walk so don’t plan on walking there. It’s a very difficult 20 min walk. Call a cab. Breakfast is not that great and is kind of expensive. Hot mineral springs are nice and are booked by the hour for each room so they are private. Staff is very nice. ##### Victoria Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeffery 26 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Amazing! I loved the private booking of the three different onsens. Very family friendly. Front desk host was super helpful, spoke sufficient English, was very kind and thorough. My kids loved the whole experience. The beds were very comfortable. Room service was also available. Check in early to get the most benefit for reserving the onsens. ##### Jeffery Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Linda 4 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A wonderful Onsen experience.

As usual, the staff was very professional and accommodating. The onsen was still the highlight and great as I remembered, and the on-site provided dinner and breakfast was incredibly delicious. Strong recommendation when coming to Hakone. ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ramon 19 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property is away from everything and when we needed a taxi, the manager went beyond until she got us a taxi.
