Staff were very kind and respectful. Room was clean and spacious. Room had a gorgeous view of the river and trees. We enjoyed the very authentic traditional Japanese food served at breakfast and dinner. The public onsen is fantastic and the area also includes a sauna and a cold plunge. Be aware that guests with large tattoos are not permitted. Would not recommend the Japanese traditional room for guests over 5’8ft as the doorways are very low. My boyfriend had hit his head numerous times. Otherwise, our stay was great and would recommend Kai Hakone!

Property cannot service western travelers, lack of language is a big problem , it is not a luxury property with some nice spring pool and clean rooms , food variety and quality poor appeals only Domestic market, transportation is a problem also with limited taxi and hotels does not have shuttle, I ended up paying a $1 for boiled egg for my son which they refused to accommodate 2 days and finally agreed

This was an unique experience. The hot spring bath, the Japanese traditional room overlooking the river, the kaiseki dinner. It was such a wonderful and relaxing experience. I wish we stayed 1-2 days longer. Highly recommended beautiful place.

The Ryokan was full of old world Japanese culture and traditions but with an updated elegance. The grounds where beautiful in the mountain country setting of Hakone. The hot spring baths where well kept, clean, and had upscale amenities. The staff was so polite and pleasant. As you drove away up the drive they would stand at the entrance and bow to you until you left sight. We will never forget our incredible stay!!

The resort was beautiful! The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful and accommodating. The standout for us by far, was the beautiful onsen and view! We had a great stay!
