Overall lovely property. Room was spacious and comfortable. Nice decor. Great beds. Excellent amenities. In room spa bath very nice.
Staff extremely attentive and gracious.
Shuttle service into Goran Station nearby much appreciated.
We were here just one night. Included dinner and breakfast. Set menus. Too much food, to be honest. Staff seemed to recognize this and were almost apologetic about it. Clearly most people find it to be too much. It was quite good. And nicely prepared and presented. Of course not suggesting this is a fault, but just an observation.
Our arrival was around noon and we weren’t able to check in. There was nothing to do on the property so we went into Gora Station. Recommend against showing up before check in time if you can avoid it.
We weren’t previously aware of the Hakone Tozan railway that runs from Hakone Yumoto to Gara Station. We took this train on our departure. It’s a magnificent 40 minute ride through lush woods and valleys with amazing views of the surrounding mountains. Highly recommended.
