Hotels in Hakone, Japan – Book at Best Prices 2026

"I originally planned to stay one night in Hakone, but after checking some guides, I realized there were so many attractions. So, I decided to book an extra night. Apparently, booking two separate nights doesn't guarantee you the same room. The front desk lady spent quite a while checking her computer to arrange a single room for me. Next time, I'll remember to book both nights at once. It might have been because of the Chinese New Year period when there are lots of guests checking in. Hakone is perfect for a one-night, two-meal stay. Since the attractions in Hakone are spread out, it's best to spend the day fully immersing yourself in sightseeing. If you get hungry at lunchtime, just grab some snacks to save time, and then enjoy the hot springs and buffet at the hotel in the morning and evening. The rooftop hot spring might use regular hot water, but it wasn't too crowded, and they had some toiletries and skincare products, so I just decided to wash up there instead of in my room."

"We had an absolutely wonderful stay and would happily give this hotel 5 stars! From the very beginning, the staff were incredibly accommodating and responsive. They kindly arranged to pick us up from Gotemba Premium Outlets, which made everything so convenient for us. After attending the beautiful Yamanakako Ice Lantern Festival, we made a last-minute request for dinner. Despite the short notice, they thoughtfully prepared a delicious shabu-shabu meal for us. They even gave us complimentary cookies because our moms were very hungry after the festival. It was such a sweet and caring gesture that we truly appreciated. The hotel itself is spacious, clean, and wonderfully warm, making it the perfect place to relax after being out in the cold. We felt comfortable, cared for, and genuinely welcomed throughout our stay. Highly recommended for their exceptional hospitality. We would definitely love to come back!"

"This is a very spacious onsen ryokan with a kids' book corner and a manga nook. The private onsen baths are free of charge, making it perfect for family trips, though they are quite popular and require a queue. There are complimentary afternoon refreshments and late-night snacks. The courtyard features a bonfire and foot bath. From check-in in the afternoon, there are always facilities to use, and it never feels too crowded, even on weekends, as the space is very well-arranged and comfortable. The hotel is conveniently located right next to Gora Station, making it easy to get around by bus or train. The staff are very friendly, and snacks are constantly replenished, so you don't have to worry about missing out if you arrive late. After a hot spring bath, there's milk and popsicles available. The 24-hour self-service beverage bar also has hot water and hot tea, so those who prefer warm water are covered. The only downside is the lack of a full-length mirror in the room, which is a bit of a pity."

"Great experience. The staff were lovely and the area is beautiful. Rooms are very homely and comfy. We went into the onsen both nights and it was great. We also got dinner both nights at the hotel and the food was good we were impressed. Overall it felt like a very personal stay and couldn't be happier. For some of the logistics if you are wanting to do the hakone main loop. We recommend coming in from Shinjuku on the romance car, take the montain train up to Gora and then the cable car to Sounzan. We then took a roughly 10min bus from Sounzan to Yuyu. The next morning we then took the same bus back to Sounzan and caught the first 9am ropeway fo start off the loop. We managed to avoid most of the crowds and it was very convenient. Once again couldn't recommend Yuyu enough thank you for the great stay!!"

"Nice traditional Ryokan. The staff was mostly non-Japanese so did not feel super authentic. Rooms were large and nice, but location of Ryokan is 25min drive from the main train station, which made exploring a little more trouble some. The staff were generally friendly, but extremely inflexible, which I suppose one would need to expect in Japan. But given the front desk staff was not even Japanese we found this to be a little frustrating at times."

"The hotel's location is super convenient; it's about a three to five-minute walk from Numazu Station's North Exit. You'll pass a Lawson on the way, and there's a 7-Eleven just a minute's walk diagonally across from the hotel, making it really easy to grab necessities. The room itself is typical of a Japanese chain hotel – enough space to lay out your luggage, plus two seats, which is quite good. On my first morning, I had a pleasant surprise: a small view of Mount Fuji from my window, which was a nice bonus for the trip. Regarding the downsides: the North Exit of Numazu Station is a bit quieter compared to the South Exit. If your room faces the street, you might occasionally hear cars speeding by at night, which can be a bit noisy. Also, the soundproofing isn't great; if there's activity next door, you can hear it pretty clearly. In summary, if you prioritize convenient transportation and good value for money, this hotel is a solid choice. However, if you're very particular about your sleeping environment, I'd recommend asking for a room not facing the street (though you might miss out on the Fuji view then)."

"Pros: Nice hotel, close to the ski lifts and the train station. There's a great coffee shop across the street and all the sights are very close. The rooms are large and spacious. The service and staff are excellent. Breakfast and dinner are delicious; I'd say there's a lot of food. I also liked the lobby bar. We went for a massage and to the onsen. Cons The rooms have layers of dust on the walls, particularly in room 308. The rooms are dusty in general."

"Really nice room with good views over the railway and hills. Great breakfast and dinner, which changed day to day for our two day stay. Didn't use the public baths, but the bath on our balcony and private baths were great. A bit hit and miss as to whether you get a chance to use the private baths as there is no booking system (not a criticism, it just might take a few attempts/waiting to get a bath). Free snacks and late night ramen were great as well."

"The hotel was new and clean. We had a room with a view towards the mountain. To reach there you can walk or take a bus. Near Souzan station, which I think it is ideal if you plan to stay overnight because you can continue the journey through the ropeway. There is no actual reception, the reception is done within the restaurant. If you want breakfast at the place, please contact the hotel before arriving because the rest of the areas nearby start quite late after 9am. Also, the hotel may not have dinner, need to check with Hotel before booking. Made a mistake of not checking and had to order Food delivery which was not very nice. But the staff there are friendly and nice. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and may decide to stay there again next time "

"We stayed in a few Ryokans but this Yoshiike Ryokan is the best because the room have large window that allow fresh mountain air to flow into the room and the futons are incredibly comfortable and warmed. We came in January when the weather dropped to 0c and the room had heaters. The onsen is beautiful and natural. My wife loved the gardens. And the receptionists are very polite and happy. We loved happy people that makes your money well spend. Will come back in the winter."
