I had higher expectations but overall not bad. Beware this is a family resort so expect running screaming kids especially at dinner and breakfast.

This recently renovated hotel is very comfortable and absolutely beautiful. Rooms are a good size and well equipped with slippers, towels, toiletries, bottled water, tea and coffee, an electric kettle, fridge, etc. Tea, coffee and other beverages are also available in the lobby next to the comfortable lounge area which overlooks a beautiful garden. I enjoyed use of the on-site onsen (separate facilities for men and women) and the delicious buffet style dinner and breakfast. I appreciated the hotel shuttle ride to Gora station the morning I did the Hakone Loop using my Hakone Free Pass. I highly recommend this place as a peaceful, comfortable place to stay for solo travelers, couples and families.
