I’d been wanting to stay here someday, and it was a truly wonderful Room. The lighting had motion sensors, the facilities were barrier-free, and both loungewear and sleepwear (pajamas) were provided, making it very comfortable to spend time here. It was also nice to enjoy French cuisine again after a long time—it was delicious. If I had to mention a couple of points, it was sometimes hard to catch the staff’s explanations (in Japanese), and since the large public bath was set to 40°C, it felt a bit lukewarm; I wished the temperatures of the open-air bath and indoor bath could be adjusted separately. (It may be a healthy temperature setting.)

We thoroughly enjoyed the heartfelt cuisine at both dinner and breakfast. From the ingredients and preparation to the tableware, service, and explanations of each dish, every aspect of the dining experience was highly satisfying. Including the Onsen, our Room, and the attentive hospitality of all staff members, everything from check-in to check-out fully matched what my spouse and I expect from an Onsen Ryokan, making our stay truly comfortable. We would like to express our gratitude and respect for providing such wonderful service. We hope to stay with you again.

The food was truly delicious! Not only dinner, but also the vegetables at breakfast were excellent. The restaurant where we enjoyed the welcome drink and the guests-only lounge were both very comfortable, and we had a wonderful time. The bath felt a little small, but it was clean and pleasant. We were impressed and would love to stay again.

I’ve been staying here for over 20 years. Since retiring, I think I’ve been visiting a bit more often. I also enjoyed the renewed half-buffet breakfast. I’m planning to stay about two more times before the end of the year. As always, the staff were pleasant and welcoming, and I had a relaxing stay. Thank you very much. One request: while the croissants at the current half-buffet were delicious, I would be happy if you could also offer the larger ones you used to have.

The bar counter was wonderful, and we enjoyed many cocktails. When we shared our preferences, the bartender created drinks on the spot, making it a truly enjoyable experience. The champagne brunch we had been looking forward to was a luxurious moment with breathtaking views. We were able to relax at the bar during café time and in the Onsen until the 2:00 PM check-out, making for a very satisfying stay. We would love to visit again.

Four of us stayed here on a girls’ trip. We booked a guaranteed Mt. Fuji view Room and were thrilled to see such a beautiful Mt. Fuji! The Room had a nostalgic Showa-era feel, but it came with basic amenities and tea, and since we only stayed one night and didn’t spend much time in the Room, it was more than sufficient. The meals (with breakfast and dinner included) were delicious, and there was so much food we couldn’t finish it all even though we wanted to try more. In the morning, we could hear Japanese bush warblers singing, which felt wonderfully refreshing, and seeing majestic Mt. Fuji made it an unforgettable memory! If we have the chance, we’d love to visit again.

The Room had a continuously flowing cloudy Onsen, and we truly appreciated the thoughtful Room Service and Shuttle Service. It was excellent value for a Saturday stay for one guest. The only disappointment was that amenities such as facial lotion were individually packaged and provided for just one use—I would have appreciated at least two uses. The meals were the right amount for me, but they may feel a bit light for younger guests or men. Next time, I’d like to enjoy a drink at the bar.

For sightseeing around Hakone and Lake Ashi, the location is convenient. The building itself is a bit old, but it has an Onsen and the pricing is reasonable. I stayed with dinner and breakfast included, and the portions were very generous—I was completely full. On weekdays, it seems to be run by one person, but he was a friendly gentleman. Thank you for treating me to wine as well.

The view from the Room was wonderful. We had a clear view of Lake Ashi and Mt. Fuji. The view from the main building’s Onsen was also great. All the staff welcomed us with warm smiles and provided pleasant service. We would love to stay again.
