温泉旅館 湯さか荘

古い旅館でしたが、チェックインして部屋に入るとホトトギスの生の声が聞こえて自然の中にいる感覚でした♪

最近旅行に行けていなかったので、どこか行きたいなと温泉のある宿を探してコチラへ。 前日まで忙しかったり、1泊だけということもあり、ほぼ前情報なしで到着。 箱根湯本からバスもあったようだけど、天気も良かったのでブラブラ散歩して。 後半は上り坂なので足腰の弱い人はバスがいいかな。 チェックイン時間の少し後に着いたら、まだ早めだったためか5人くらいのスタッフさんにお出迎えされた。 部屋数にしては少し多過ぎてビックリ。 貸切風呂の予約もこの時に。 部屋は広い和室で、トイレと洗面所があって快適。 早速浴衣に着替えて大浴場へ。 この宿で1番ビックリしたのが、男湯と女湯の奥にある露天風呂がなんと混浴！ 早い時間で自分達だけだったので、彼女と露天風呂で合流。 明るい時間に露天風呂に2人で入るだけで新鮮だけど、貸切でなく他の人が来るかもと思うとすごく不思議な感じだった。 ココがこの宿で1番印象に残ったな。 夕食も朝食も部屋食で、アジア系の女性が流暢な日本語でひとつひとつの料理を丁寧に説明してくれた。 夕食は刺身、天ぷら、肉入り鍋など品数も多く、ボリュームもあってとても満足できた。 夕食後には貸切風呂を、朝にはもう一度大浴場に入ったが、他のカップルが露天風呂にいたので遠慮した。 部屋数も少なくこぢんまりした宿で、チェックアウトまで他のお客さんに会うことも少なくとても静かでのんびりできた。 2Fの部屋のすぐそばには小さな喫煙ルームもあった。 チェックアウト後は目の前のバスで駅に行く人が多かったかな。 全体にはシンプルに静かでリラックスできる良い宿だった。

アットホームで居心地よかったです。 また行きたいと思います

１つを除き、大変満足でした。お風呂は貸し切りも、露天も非常に快適。庭の手入れが行き届いていました。食事も、サービスも宿の皆さんの対応も非常によいものでした。また来たいねと家内と話しました。 残念だったのは、梅雨続きとコロナの影響だったのでしょうが、お部屋にカビ臭さが残っていたことでした。仕事の関係で21時前に入ったので、スプレーを頼まなかったのです。２日目には気にならなくなりましたが。。

あまり他のお客さんを気にせずにゆっくりのんびり良い時間を過ごせました。ご飯もとっても美味しかったし、温泉も良いお湯でした。

Excellent service with an amazing onsen. Truly an authentic and wonderful Japanese experience staying here!

Unforgettable experience. Personalized attention. Authentic Japanese experience. Highly recommend!

We stayed in a couple of Ryokans and this was the best. The room set up was fantastic - loads of space, warm and cosy. The staff very friendly and helpful and the dinner and breakfasts were like a work of art. We loved it.

Friendly staff and great opened-air onsen.

The room was spotless. The staff very attentive.

Meals were delicious

Excellent service from staff, excellent breakfasts and dinners, beautiful outdoor onsen.

We had the same staff member for our entire stay and she was outstanding. She was so helpful. This was a feature with all staff we encountered on our stay. The stay and facilities were a true onsen and a must do experience in Japan. Hakone has many onsens. When we return we would not hesitate to stay here again.

Meget venligt personale, der konstant stod klar til at hjælpe og gjorde en dyd ud af sit arbejde. De serverede overdådige måltider, og man fik virkelig lov at smage en masse traditionel, japansk mad. Der var lækre badefaciliteter, og det fælles onsen var frit tilgængeligt hele tiden.

24시간 온천을 즐길 수 있는 곳으로 도착하자 바로 마중나와 차량까지 캐리어 2개를 들고 3층의 숙소까지 전달해주었다. 근무하시는 모든분들이 항상 편안하게 지낼 수 있도록 신경써 주시는 마음이 너무도 고마웠다. 편안하게 잘지내고 왔습니다. 석식,조식 모두 만족합니다. 감사합니다.

Fue una experiencia increíble y el desayuno maravilloso. Disfrutamos del onsen. El personal muy amable.

The hospitality at Yusakaso was absolutely stellar. Extremely clean, gracious staff, delicious presentable breakfast and dinner served in-room. The Japanese-style bed was comfortable, and my room was spacious. There is one outdoor mixed-gender onsen which becomes women-only from 20:00-21:00 (8-9pm) and two indoor onsens for women-only and two for men-only. Each day, guests can reserve the private onsen for 30 minutes. There are 3 hotel rooms with private open-air onsens. Please note the hotel rooms without private onsens do not include showers, so you will need to shower in the shared gendered shower rooms. (You use these same showers before getting into the onsen.) The hotel was easy to locate. It is a 16 minute walk up-hill from Hakone-Yumoto station. I would recommend bringing only light luggage if possible. There is a bus that takes passengers from the hotel to the train station at 9:40am for 200¥. The hotel provides mosquito repellent machines, make sure you use them if you are susceptible. My first night I was bit all over my face and arms before learning about the machine. Overall, I had the most wonderful and relaxing stay at Yusakaso. My experience was very needed after surviving the rush of Tokyo!

Wonderful staff, delicious meals, nice onsen facilities, comfortable tatami and futon for sleeping, a wonderful cultural experience

We had a wonderful stay at Yusakaso! It was our first time in a ryokan and everything was explained clearly upon arrival. We were lucky to stay on the 3rd floor as this is the floor with the onsen. On the women's side there are two women-only onsen, on the men's side there is one men-only onsen, and outside there is a shared onsen for men and women. There is also a private onsen that can be booked by everyone in the ryokan for 30 minutes per evening (availability until midnight so everyone gets a chance to go, even if it is late). My boyfriend and I were surprised at how much we loved the onsen. The shared one made us a bit nervous, but I (female) went in over 6 times and was only ever alone or with my boyfriend. When other people arrived, they would give me privacy until I was out instead. If women are concerned, there is a women's hour at the outdoor onsen from 8-9pm, and it is men-only from midnight to 6am as a safety measure. Upon arrival we received slippers and yukata, both very cozy. We loved the tatami floors, clean private bathroom (toilet and sink only - bathe in the onsen), window overlooking the hills, and kaiseki meals for breakfast and dinner. The meals do taste fairly fishy which can be difficult in the mornings, but we loved it for the cultural experience. We knew there may be noise from young children, but aside from some loud steps during one of the evenings it was otherwise very quiet. We would recommend Yusakaso to couples, families, and friends!

Fantastisk sted og personale.
