Irori Guest House Tenmaku

I had a great one night stay here. The staff are very welcoming and clearly enjoy working there and interacting with guests. The room is exactly as described, and it was very dark at night too. The walls are very thin and sound travels easily especially from the room below, so it’s better to think of it as a dorm rather than a completely separate room. I couldn’t join the Irori dinner as I arrived too late, but it was starting just as I was arriving, and it looked like a cosy experience connecting with other travellers. The hostel had a sociable, but relaxed, vibe. The kitchen was very well equipped too. The location was quite easy to get to, a bus ride from Hakone station and walkable from Gora station. I’d be happy to stay again if I’m back in Hakone.

The staff were brilliant and very welcoming especially to my two children, the place was beautiful, the evening meal was lovely and very unique. We really enjoyed our 1 night stay.

スタッフ対応はとてもよかった。 リビング暖かいが、お部屋は寒い。 掛け布団が座布団みたいに重い。 浴衣や歯ブラシなどはレンタルだったので 持参した方がよい。

Eviten a toda costa la habitación 3, está justo abajo del bar y todas las noches tienen una actividad donde hacen comida asada al carbón y todo el humo del pescado se filtra hacia la habitación. Sinceramente fue una experiencia demasiado desagradable. No pudimos dormir por el apeste. Lo rescatable fue la ubicación y la amabilidad del personal. Los baños son compartidos y están relativamente limpios aunque algo viejos. No nos volveremos a hospedar ahí ni aunque nos pagaran.

Yes, I love the staff so much! They are so nice and always happy to help!
