Hakone Hakone Stone‐Paved Road Hotels

"Absolutely amazing. We booked the villa with private indoor and outdoor onsens and the space was fantastic. Like a little house, a living room, bedroom, bathroom, bath area next to the indoor onsen, outdoor deck with onsen, and a little patio kind of area outside the living room. Extremely clean and cozy, and the staff made us feel so welcomed immediately. They prepared little honeymoon surprises like a letter, a dessert, and were so sweet always. The food was wonderful and so delicious, we loved having specific dining times and even breakfast was so satisfying. We chose the Japanese breakfast and it was sooo yummy. Everyone working there is so kind, helpful, and there seems to be a lot to do! It is also right in front of the bus stop, super convenient. We took it from Hakone-Yumoto and then took it to Odawara to catch the Shinkansen. Thank you so much for making our honeymoon and first Christmas as a married couple so special. We can’t wait to come back one day!"

"Great location , free parking , excellent staffs ! Dinner was also excellent! Wish the happy hour location is at the lounge not at the family pool area ! "

"Our favorite stay during our 2 week Japan trip. Incredible amenities (hot spring, sauna, heated floors, projector), amazing views of Hakone Shrine and Fuji, and a smooth check-in process. The bus stop, 7/11, and pirate ship dock are a 2-min walk away and were incredibly convenient. "

"The accommodations were outstanding. Exactly what I wanted. It felt very traditional while also having modern amenities. Loved the traditional clothing they gave us, the private onsen we had, and the kaiseki meals. If you want a cultural experience but with modern comforts, this is the place!"

"Outdoor hot spring is awesome! Great staff. Very helpful front desk and shuttle driver! Will comeback again! "

"The room was spectacular! And the setting was so serene (the lobby, restaurant, and onsen were all immaculate). The dining experiences (both breakfast and dinner) were also very special - definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience with many new foods to try and impeccable service. My only (small) notes: there is no fitness center and no nearby running/walking/hiking (the property is located off a busy highway with no sidewalks), so if you are an active person, be prepared to do a lot of sitting around! We asked for trail recommendations but were told they didn't exist. We also found that the hotel staff, while very accommodating, were NOT knowledgeable about nearby activities, dining, etc. We really had to fend for ourselves in that regard. Perhaps it was the language barrier, but seemingly simple requests (like laundry service, or calling a taxi), they were not able to help us with. Also, note that the dining is private in individual dining rooms, but it is not IN your hotel room, if that's what you're looking for. All in all, I'd say this is an amazing retreat for 1 or 2 nights if you really just want to unplug and lay around in a beautiful space! "

"It was quite a journey from the station to the ryokan. Well worth it. Elaborate Japanese dinner and breakfast. Outdoor onsen. The new part of the lodge is 80 years old. It has been on this spot for 300 years. Quick bus ride to Lake Ashi next morning. "
