Our stay here was phenomenal. The onsen, of which two are available, are both fantastic and have great views. Our room also had an indoor tub and small outdoor stone onsen that was like having heaven in our backyard, which was also equipped with a private garden. The dinner included in the reservation was delicious and filling. We got drinks at the bar afterward with a nice view of the larger garden outside. Dinner was preceded by a music concert with a pianist and floutist. The breakfast buffet was extensive. The service was top notch. Certainly an unforgettable hotel experience! I would go back in a heartbeat.

We loved this gorgeous, resort-like property in Hakone. The staff treated us with the utmost respect and kindness from the moment we arrived until the moment we left. Our room with the private onsen facing the mountains was no doubt the highlight of our trip and a much needed place for relaxation. The property has everything you could need, including free ice cream and drinks in the lobby, nightly live music/entertainment, and dining options. The location isn't super walkable or convenient to stores and restaurants, but this was just fine with us. There is an indoor tunnel connecting this property to another with a restaurant and convenience store which was nice to have. Amazing trip
