What a nice retreat! We truly enjoyed this traditional hotel nestled in the mountains. Our room had an excellent view, and it was so peaceful, quiet, and private. We loved sleeping on the futon in the tatami room. Also, the bath/shower room was a treat. There is an on-site onsen which we used every day of the stay. This hotel is a bit far from amenities, and at the time of our stay, the restaurant was closed. We recommend walking the 5 minutes on the path to Yunnesun, where there is a ‘Family Mart’ for basic foodstuffs. Yunnesun, is an amazing experience and highly recommended. Take the shuttle bus from Gora Station to the hotel - it hits every major hotel, including this one, even though it’s not listed on the route. It begins late and ends early, so the Tozan bus works with the Hakone Free Pass (note that the bus instructions on the hotel website are for the local bus, which is not covered by the Hakone Free Pass). The place is in need of a bit of a decor update, but otherwise spotlessly clean. The staff don’t speak much English, but are very willing to help and are exceptionally polite. We felt welcome and would gladly stay here again.
