Staff were very friendly! Not sure if I missed it in the description, but the bathrooms are shared and in order to shower you need to book the onsen. By the time we got there all the times that worked for us were booked. The onsen was just a tiny little hot tub essentially in a depressing room-not really what I was hoping for. The soup served for breakfast was great! Overall, I wouldn’t stay again as I don’t like hostels, but if you do then this is an okay find.

My friend and I stayed one night and wish we could stay for longer. Lovely staff, nice private onsen and there is a restaurant on the first floor and rooms are on the top floor, the restaurant is a bit pricey but food was delicious. Overall, wonderful stay, highly recommend.

Perfect for quick stay! Just know the bathrooms ar

Great stay for solo traveler one night! Such a cute boutique accommodation. Know that it’s a shared toilet and shower (at the onsen on bottom floor) but this was fine for one or two nights. I wish I had time to try the restaurant Buger Box! The ladies working the restaurant were very friendly with great English.

It is one of those rare places that describing with words would not do it justice. From the quaint streets leading to the inn, to the building itself and a staff that felt authentic in their kindness, the experience will stay with me.

Hakone Staycation

This ryokan made us wish that we stayed an extra day in Hakone. The ryokan was a perfect place to get home to after you do a tour of the many sights of Hakone. Though the ryokan was provided with modern utilities, it has retained the authentic Japanese charm, even when it offers a very good burger restaurant. The Onsen was perfect. We actually got lost while trying to look for it, but it was a great sigh of relief when we got to one of the most charming places we’ve seen.

This is one of the best private onsen, traditional Japanese hotel that you can try in the hakone area. I almost don’t want to leave a great review because I want to be able to book it again. Super clean. The breakfast provided was delicious. And the star of the show is the private onsen that can be booked once you’re on the property. I wish we stayed longer. Beautiful accommodations!!

A beautiful experience with many amenities!

We had an incredible time, the on sen was lovely, clean and well-kept (there is a schedule for all the guests to block off an hour to use which is plenty of time). The rooms were cute, decorated in traditional Japan aesthetic, adorable kimonos, slippers, tea, and many amenities. You get a nice meal that is waiting in the refrigerator and there is also a restaurant conveniently downstairs( Burger Box, has vegan options!). The 2 ladies working there were very sweet, attentive, engaged, and had wonderful service throughout our stay, would highly recommend and stay again.

The Hakonawa guest is beautifully situated in the hills of Hakone. Tucked a short walk away from the main street, you cross two beautiful bridges and are taken into a beautifully peaceful corner. The staff are very helpful and kind. The rooms are perfectly clean, and for those that havnt stayed in a guest house or ryokan, this is a great introduction! The onsen is shared between the guests by a booking system that ensures everyone gets the chance to enjoy, a definite must try. Lastly the breakfast, that you find in your room upon arrival and is topped up daily, is amazing. There is a self service area for you convenience that has everything you will need. We really enjoyed our stay here thanks to the care and attention from the wonderful team

This was a secure ryokan with only 3 rooms on the top floor. We could store our luggage there before our check in and for a few hours after checkout, which was really helpful. Toilet upstairs near the room but shower in the onset area (spa not traditional onset). But noisy with creaky floor at night. Smell of sewage in room at night, but not too strong and mitigated by use of aircon all night for ventilation. Overall it was a really nice stay, with gorgeous breakfast (self made but ingredients provided)

A jewel in Hakone. It will not disappoint!

This little gem truly rocks! Close to the rail station, only 8 min walk. The property is a historical building, owned by a Geisha. Its a only 3 rooms facility. The onsen is great a plus to rest from a day of hiking. Couple things to be aware: bathroom is shared. Not a problem, at least in my case and i was a little aprehensive with this but, i didnt find an issue. The shower is in the onsen, so my advice, as soon as you arrive chose your time and put your room in the time you prefer, i did that and it worked great. The hotel is the same location of Burger Box, the best burger i ever tried! Dont miss the Matcha beer! Excellent place! The whole building is art!

This was more like a hostel and not a ryokan. Shared bathroom and toilets. We were informed about it the night before and given the option to cancel if we didn’t want that. However, our booking was non refundable within 24hrs of check in. We were not happy about it. They did not serve breakfast. They only gave some bread rolls in the room , we were expecting traditional Japanese breakfast at a place that calls itself ryokan. Their hot spring is not real natural hot spring. They have a hot bath what uses water procured from a hot spring and recirculated. We had to make our own beds . This is a traditional bed we had to make by putting the mattress on the floor and then using bedding etc. there was not help provided by the staff. If there was no staff at the restaurant downstairs then there was no staff on premises. The only good thing was the burgers they served downstairs were really good but very expensive!!

This inn was our favorite place we stayed during our 3 week trip around Japan. It is close to the Hakone train station as well as the downtown shops. It is the perfect place if you’re looking for the traditional Japanese feel with some modern amenities. There are only three rooms in the inn and a small onsen for private use. Because of the traditional build of the inn you can occasionally hear the other guests and the bathroom is shared but this did not take away from the charm of this place for us. One of the best parts was the breakfast of soup and bread each morning which we found out was made fresh by the staff. There is a public burger restaurant downstairs which was also delicious. The staff were super friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We will definitely be staying here again the next time we come to Japan.

The electronic check in is overly complicated and intrusive. We had to provide scanned copies of passports and then do a video call to verify our identity. It is not just a matter of scanning the QR code which was sent to us. Don't use the restaurant downstairs. It is ridiculously expensive for what you get. The Caesar Salad needs to be renamed to "bowl of lettuce with some dressing and cheese" to reflect the actual content. No bacon, no egg, 5 croutons.
