Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Check-in window is short — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 19:00, so arriving late may be a problem unless you plan ahead.
  • Check-out is early — Guests must check out between 07:00 and 10:00, which might feel rushed for those wanting a slow morning.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel is pet-free, so travellers with animals should look elsewhere.
  • Some shared bathrooms — While one review notes that shared bathrooms were clean and accessible, the lack of ensuite facilities in some room types may not suit everyone.
  • Staff can be inconsistent — One guest mentioned that a few staff members came across as rude, despite the generally high service rating.

“Breakfast was a highlight, especially the crab miso soup. The atmosphere felt calm, though a few staff members came across as short. The location was beautiful and made it easy to get to Sengokuhara.”

“Staff, food, value for money, a sense of peace, and the onsen — all excellent.”

9Verified guest

“Everything was great.”

“We were allowed to check in early, and parking was just across the street. The room was attractive, with tatami flooring and a tub. The area is remote but close to Odawara, where many Shinkansen stop, and there are bus links to Hakone-Yumoto and Gotemba stations.”

9Verified guest

“A romantic, well-kept room with futon beds. The location was unbeatable, near the cable car and Hakone-Yumoto station.”

“We woke up to a soothing view of the river and bamboo. The private onsen was heavenly, and dining was a treat — an authentic Japanese breakfast and dinner.”
