Bus stop directly outside main entrance made commute to other locations easier especially when combined with Hakone free pass. The hotel has a shuttle bus which provides transport to Gora Railway station and the Cable car. We enjoyed walking to the Hakone Open-air Museum even though it was uphill on the return to the hotel. ##### John Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Junchao 8 Jul 2025 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities good resort ##### Junchao Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Christina 11 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Rooms were clean and the front desk staff was friendly. Dining was very disappointing, wasn't expecting kaiseki but tastes worse than local buffet place. Hot springs bath onsite was small, outdoor bath had limited mountain view. It was nice to get complimemtary access to another onsen a block away with multiple pools. Overall, okay but not a 5-star hotel. ##### Christina ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anders 2 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Relaxing and pleasant!
