Top Ashinoyu Hotel Reviews

The Fujiya Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A beautiful hotel. A heritage building with a great garden. A stylish bar and great views from the breakfast room, A very stylish onsen. Lovely staff. However, though the swimming pool is beautiful, it's not actually deep enough for a proper swim."

YuYu Hakone - Private Open Air Onsen Usage Guaranteed

10/10 Excellent

"YuYu was a wonderful private stay up in the mountains of Hakone! My partner and I stayed 2 nights and got a private 50 minute onsen both nights:) It was a perfect way to unwind after a day of walking around. The rooms are spacious and lovely. The breakfast and dinner services are worth it (the food is great!) and the staff are very helpful and assisted us with meals and finding our onsen room. Would definitely go back."

Hotel Indigo Hakone Gora by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed 2 nights at this hotel with our 1 year old and even though she was fussy and it rained the whole time, our stay here was amazing. Such a beautiful property inside and out. The rooms and amenities were super useful. The employees were all so nice and helpful and even though our toddler was going through some teething at the time they never made us feel rushed or embarrassed. The breakfast was phenomenal, literally hit every option for every type of eater. It was pricey but well worth it! The personal onsen in our room was great to have as it helped with the 4am wakes with our little one. I loved the personal touches such as the little bag for our little one, complimentary water, and robes."

Hakone Kowakien TEN-YU

10/10 Excellent

"Amazi location, beautiful view, and very friendly and respectful staff. They take their roles very seriously and want to deliver a wonderful and authentic experience for you. The ensuite onsen in the room balcony was absolutely incredible. I spent hours in there! The food was amazing. The breakfast buffet was delicious, but the dinners in the dining hall in the annex were absolutely amazing"

Hakone Kowakien

10/10 Excellent

"The Onsen (hot spring facilities) was fantastic, especially after a long journey. Breakfast and dinner buffet were excellent. Mostly Japanese food but there are a few choices for those who don't like Japanese food. For me, the meals were great. Sushi, Sashimi, lots of different choices. A true test of Japan. Never had the same thing twice as there were too many choices. Not to mention they had beer, sake and some other alcohols available as part of the buffet. Didn't see anyone abusing the access which is good. The only thing to mention is if you are traveling from Tokyo and are returning there, it would be good to only take a smaller portion of your belongings (send your larger cases to your next hotel) as the rooms are not equipped with closets or drawers so you will be living out of your suitcase. Really wasn't a problem with our two large suitcases. Nice walking path in the back of the facility. Strongly recommend taking a taxi or uber from the train station with your suitcases. We road the bus there which was standing room only along a a very twisty mountain road, OVERALL - WONDERFULL"
