Top Motohakone Hotel Reviews

Hakone Kowakien

10/10 Excellent

"The small complimentary shuttle bus may be full when it reaches the hotel during popular hours; option of several buses stopping right in front the hotel; the Open-Air Museum is a pleasant short walk from hotel, when in nice weather with low grade inclines."

The Prince Hakone Lake Ashinoko

8/10 Good

"Loved the room, very spacious. We had a little balcony. Refa blow dryer was a great surprise. Also, drinks in the fridge we're free. Sauna was great as well. Views of Mt. Fuji were unbeatable. The only downside is the food. We dined at the Japanese restaurant and we didn't enjoy the food for the price. We dined at the buffet and felt the same. Hakone is a small town and most of the restaurants close around 3pm so you rely on your hotel for dinner. Which is a shame because we loved everything else."

Hotel de Yama, Hakone Lake Side

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean room in traditional elegance. The hotel had great views of the lake and the gardens were amazing. Shuttle bus from Motohakone-to was very welcome and the driver was excellent, keeping strictly to the hotel schedule. The hotel onsen was fantastic, with massage chairs available too. Lollies were available outside the onsen as a traditional method of cooling down. The evening meal was adapted for our dietary preferences, info provided in advance of our stay, and the waiting staff were exceptional. The multi-course meal was beatifully presented, with guided explanation of each course from the attendant staff. We were fortunate to be there on a night when a cocktail evening was held. Piano music, a roaring fire and a 1930s baronial style ambience that was so enjoyable. There were lots of options for breakfast. We would return here in a heartbeat."

Hakone Ashinoko Hanaori（ORIX HOTELS & RESORTS）

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel setting is absolutely beautiful, the staff extra lovely and helpful, the breakfast and dinner included were fabulous . I chose a room without the lake view and would upgrade next time but pure was still lovely . The onsen was relaxing and cocktails overlooking the footpath great. It was a wonderful adventure from Tokyo to Hakone on the Romancecar train then the switchback train and cable cars to the hotel and good that a direct bus can take you back if time is short . The Hakone free pass is well worth it and includes the Pirate ship cruise , such fun. I would also recommend the amazing luggage delivery service . We had bigger bags sent from Tokyo to our next stop after Hakone being Kyoto, such an efficient system , so travelled light to Hakone but even so , we forwarded our bags from Hakone station to the hotel for a small fee, freeing us up for the journey there and allowing us to enjoy the Open Air Museum hands free . That place is well worth the visit . So lovely . All in all a memorable stay highly recommended ."

Rakuten STAY VILLA Hakone Togendai

10/10 Excellent

"WOW! I will absolutely be staying here again and bringing anyone wishing to visit Hakone with me! A full private sauna, onsen, cold plunge, and outdoor garden on the bottom level with everything you can possibly think of on the remaining two floors. Excellent location, gorgeous property, and the price was unbelievable for what you got! 100/10!"
