What guests think

Travellers consistently praise Hakone Kyuan for its tranquil setting, private in room onsens, scenic mountain views, attentive staff, and memorable multi course kaiseki dinners and breakfasts, making it a relaxing, intimate ryokan stay that feels thoughtfully personalized.

The location is remote and not walkable to town; pickups from select stations help but transport can be limited. Rooms are peaceful with views and soaking tubs; a few mention layout quirks or tighter space when futons are set for larger groups. Expect a quiet, restorative hot spring retreat focused on service and cuisine.

Very attentive service and gourmet meals. A quiet hotel with a spacious room that hosted my wife, myself, and our 2 young adult children with sufficient privacy. The private onsen was spectacular, as was the little protected outdoor deck.

From start to finish, our experience was spectacular. We were picked up at a bus stop by one of the staff members, who was attentive to us for the whole duration of the trip. While we waited in the lobby, we were served a soothing cup of delicious green tea that warmed our bodies. Upon entering our room in the main house, we were dazzled by our in-room onsen, and the breathtaking mountain view right outside our windows. Our dinner that night consisted of several courses that gave us a taste of high-quality and delicious Japanese cuisine. My husband and I were refreshed and well-rested from the inside out by the end of the trip. We will most definitely be returning when we make our way back to Japan in the future! Look no further for a high-quality ryokan.

What an outstanding experience, this was definitely the highlight of my Japan trip. We booked the Asama room, which had three beds, a semi-open onsen, and an amazing view of the mountains. Notging beats waking up on the morning, and just staring in awe at the beautiful scenary from your bedside. The neals were extremely filling and delicious. Kaiseki for dinner had 8 courses and breakfast had various small dishes, seafood, rice and dessert. Staff members were very polite, friendly and always willing to answer your questions. Couldnt get enough of the onsen so I tried both our in-suite and the private one you can book for 40mins, both were fantastic.

The in-room mineral bath was so rejuvenating. The shuttle service to near-by train stations was convenient. The meals were “out of this world” scrumptious and unique to Japan salmon, tuna, barracuda, etc). The staff were kind and gracious (and busy). This place is a gem! If I ever find my way back to this area, I will definitely return!

Staff was very patient with us and very accommodating. The menu was set and had some of the best quality food I’ve had in Japan. My only issue was that the onsen in our room was starting to show its age but was easy to ignore once you felt the water. It was a very good experience overall.

I can easily rate this experience 10/10 and it was worth every penny. From head to toe, the service was impeccable and worthy of praise. The staff was able to communicate in English so this was a great help. First off, ryokan is situated about 5-10 minutes drive away from one of the local stops in Hakone, which also included a vehicle transfer from the station. Upon reaching the ryokan, we were greeted with an immaculate view of the surrounding mountains. They had some of the best beer on tap, I believe it was the Shiro Honoka Beer by Sapporo. Cleanliness was very good, and the food was exceptional as it had some of the freshest ingredients that I had tasted. The highlight was the private onsen in the bathroom, which included a view of the mountain as well.

If you are looking for a wonderful ryokan experience this is it! I wish we stayed longer than one night. This ryokan offers many different room styles and sizes. They also offers rooms with private bath - which is the one we chose. The whole stay - from the pick up at Odawara station to the drop off at the end - felt personalized and so so relaxing. The whole design of the property, the room, and the service was beautiful, thoughtful, and makes you feel as if you are the only person around. The kaiseki meal and the traditional breakfast were amazing! Top 3 best meals we had on our trip (2 of which were in michelin restaurants). Highly, highly recommend!

The hotel was a bit off the beaten path, but the amenities were excellent. It's not the type of location where you can easily walk into town or explore Hakone. But, once you get settled, you might not even need to leave! Our room had an amazing view, incredible wood tub, and great beds. There were other people staying in the hotel but we couldn't hear them or notice anyone else so it felt very private. We arrived two hours before check in and they were not able to accommodate an early check-in which was okay. They drove us down to the town center and we saw some museums before heading back. the private dinner was expensive, but very excellent. And the breakfast was outstanding. We got to eat with a great view of the mountains. And the staff was very attentive and accommodating to all our needs.
