Hot Springs Hotels in Ashigarashimo District

Check in and out was a very long process during peak hours. They were also very not accommodating for a family of 4 in the double queen room, even though there was ample space. The location was also quite inaccessible via bus from the train station. Rooms were clean. Nice to have laundry in basement (but must use Suica to operate), and the only restaurant at the hotel was hard to book. There is a convenient store right next to hotel. The onsen was lovely, but they switch the genders daily so be cautious!!

This hotel is a small family-style hot spring hotel, which may not be too popular, so the price is very high. The location is on the edge of the famous Xiaoyong Garden, and it is very close to the hot spring park, VIP building and Yingbin building. The courtyard is exquisite, the environment is clean, the grandfather at the front desk is meticulous in working attitude, and the room is exactly the same as the picture. The only disadvantages are: first, the breakfast is too rude, and second, the private soup is a small closed indoor pool, meaningless, just go to the public. The public hot spring is outside. The day I went there was a heavy rain in Hakone. A hot spring, very romantic.

There are too many complaints, so I will list them one by one: 1. The view from the private bath in the room is very bad; 2. The public bath only has one big pool, and there is no basic configuration of sauna room; 3. The surrounding environment is monotonous, and there are no garden facilities; 4. The shuttle bus is arrogant and only stops at Kowakudani Station; 5. The freshness of the food is average. As one of the top hot spring hotels in Hakone, I have to say that I am quite disappointed.

This ryokan is simply too lively! It's a pity we were there a bit too early coz the garden will be so beautiful in full bloom! The staff are friendly and nice! Service is superb! But when come to value for money, their sister hotel Tenyu is of better and greatest value with a slight higher price but worth it. However they are totally different type of ambience and feel. For ryokan experience, this is no doubt better choice

This Ryokan is a bit secluded. Do email them if you need a free shuttle van service coming from the Yugawara train station (van service started after 2pm). Their is service is outstanding from the moment you arrived at the hotel. The room is huge and lovely. The open air bath area offered a nice scenic view during the day. The night view of the moon and stars while soaking in the bath is even more stunning. The Kaiseki dinner and breakfast were delicious. The service staff was very professional and tried their best to explain the different courses of food with their limited English. Highly recommended for people to experience their first Ryokan stay.

Ten-yu at Hakone Kowakien is a luxurious escape nestled in nature. The private onsen in every room, featuring Shigaraki-yaki bathtubs, is pure bliss. The infinity onsen on the 6th floor offers breathtaking views, especially at sunset. We loved the teppanyaki dinner at the historic Guest House, a true culinary experience. The serene valley garden is perfect for a relaxing stroll. The staff was attentive and the overall atmosphere was incredibly tranquil. Highly recommend for a rejuvenating getaway! Don't miss the delicious sashimi and crab for breakfast!

This is one of the best ryokan I have ever stayed in. Firstly, the location is right next to Gora Station, less than five minutes walk, which makes a big difference if you've come from, say, Tokyo to Hakone. Additionally, the rooms were comfortable and the private baths/balcony feature available for all rooms is lovely. The Double Western room we stayed in had the best of both worlds with the traditional Japanese bath and a comfortable bed (while futon are fine, we preferred a bed). Finally, the samue monk work clothes the hotel lends you to wear as sleepwear is so comfortable, my only complaint is that there are none available for purchase. Also, the hot spring bath facilities were great. We only used the shared not public ones, but they were clean, beautifully designed, and well ventilated (which is important for not getting overheated). Travellers take note: a lot of restaurants in the area close after 7pm, and the dinner set is on the pricier side, so best to plan your dinner accordingly. The restaurants we did try (notably an udon/soba place) was very good. And the nearby shuttle to Pola Art Museum/13 min from Hakone Open Air Art Museum make this a good hotel for art-lovers. The staff are friendly and helpful too.

I love this hotel! From the moment we were ushered in from the shuttle coming via Odawara stn, the hotel felt very welcoming. Reception was a large open table that is not your typical hotel reception that feel too formal. we were first brought to the lower bar seating area where it’s comfy sofa seating. Check in took awhile as many guests were received from the hotel shuttle bus (25-30 seater). Staff always check in with us on the progress while we waited. Room came with private onsen though I hope it could have been the natural spring water instead of tap. Love the huge room size thats great for little kids to run around, met my standard of cleanliness as well. Breakfast adequate but not a huge spread which I find pricey at 3900 yen. Some bread, fried jap style fish, somen, cold appetisers, veg dips, fruits, around 6-8 hot dishes including omelette and poached eggs. Yet a lot of drink choices fr milk, soy, juices, teas, etc. we had the set dinner 18000 yen and 15000 yen as both of us had diff menus. Was a 3-4 course dinner, nothing out of this world and we didnt want the hassle of walking out to find food. This was one hotel we found many singaporeans (we are one too) as breakfast and dinnertime in resto is when we started noticing the accents. Nearby is a 7-11 nearby around 300m by foot if you feel peckish in middle of the night. Very pleasant stay, like that they provide mpv service to and fro gora station that would be most main boarding point to other attractions, mind that it runs till 6pm so any later you can take the Hakone Tozan bus which brings you to the pizza resto just a short 50m walk from hotel main road.

I recently stayed at Hotel Odakyu in Hakone and had a mixed experience. On the map, the location seems convenient, but in reality, it's a bit tricky—especially for solo travelers. There are no buses that go directly to the hotel, so you end up walking along the main road in the dark if you're coming back in the evening. There’s no sidewalk, which made it feel unsafe and uncomfortable for me as a single female traveler. That said, the hotel itself is clean and the rooms, while a little outdated, are well-maintained and comfortable. The onsen is a lovely feature with both indoor and outdoor options—definitely a highlight of the stay. Amenities are great and well-stocked, and the traditional Japanese breakfast is beautifully prepared. Just note that it's the same meal every morning, so if you're staying for more than a night or two, it might feel repetitive. One key tip: buses in Hakone don’t run late, so make sure to be back in the area by 6 or 7 PM to avoid the long, dark walk. Personally, I would recommend staying in a more central or populated area of Hakone for better access to restaurants and transit—especially if you're relying on public transportation.

This time we traveled with a family of three and a friend. The hotel environment is very beautiful. You can choose your own bathrobe. There is also a separate private bath, which is very comfortable. The room is also very Japanese. Let me talk about the hotel's set meal. It is really rich and worth it. I highly recommend it.
