Nice, clean, modern facilities. Friendly and helpful staff. The onsen was lovely. Shared bathrooms were nice. Showers are located in an onsen. There is a private shower available for women but not men.
A great, affordable hotel right by Gora station - perfect location for exploring Hakone. We opted for a private room which was lovely and comfortable. The onsen facilities are only open to guests and while small are very pleasant, and the number of people is limited at any one time. Even the snacks and drinks in the minibar were very reasonably priced and locally sourced. Thoroughly recommended!
Wonderful hotel with onsen in Gora. Most of the Staff were so nice and kind. Location is just a few steps from Gora station and is kid friendly. Beautiful room views and excellent room size (private) Liked that there was a little kitchen and laundry room too.
This is a great central spot in Gora. The only complaint we had as a group was the lack of walkable restaurants that were open on any given day (not the hotels fault). Breakfast was really good, staff is friendly, the onsen is nice and intimate. Overall nice home base for exploring hakone... Definitely worth buying the hakone transit multi day pass.. Ooo and the open air museum was fantastic!!
Highly recommend this great hotel in Hakone. Its minutes walk from the station & bus stop, providing amazing access to the Hakone sights. Room was huge, clean & the staff were incredibly welcoming.

Liked: Staff & service
Property was in great location next to stations. Very quiet area at night. Room itself was a little on the dirty side (visible cobwebs in the bathroom and stained floors). Was a bit noisily to the outside. Staff was fantastic and breakfast was top notch.

My family and I stayed here for one night and had a wonderful stay. There were some issues with the bathtub in our room and the hotel staff went above and beyond to fix the issue for us. All the staff were friendly, breakfast was tasty, beds were comfy and the hotel was clean and accomodating for our family. Best part was Gora station was directly across the road for easy transport to do the Hakone scenic loop. Would recommend this hotel to any traveller.
Fantastic hostel. We were a family of 4 (all adults) in one room. Bunks were great, spacious floor space, Onsen was nice bonus. Fantastic staff. Breakfast recommended. Can’t beat this location. Great point to stay at to experience that Hakone area on the free pass. Would stay again in a heartbeat.
Friendly english speaking staff.
Clean industrial modern vibe. You can hear the cable car announcements loudly, but it stops at 5pm.

A lovely relaxing place to stay. The staff were lovely, helpful and prepared to explain about the onsen which was a very pleasant experience. Both our evening meal (vegan curry and beef with rice dish) and the breakfast were delicious. We felt our stay was very good value. The twin room was huge. The area of Gora was again relaxing with both Gora park and the Open air museum within walking distance.
Had an amazing stay! Staff are awesome. Fabulous dinner and breakfast - Japanese/Western fusion. Creative, attractive and delicious. Location can’t be beat. Right next to the Gora station.
Right next to Gora station. We had a private room with two twin beds. Very comfortable and spacious room. Good breakfast available and able to store our luggage.
A clean and comfortable place to stay, right by the station. I stayed in an 8 bed dorm and the room itself was spacious, as well as the bed cubbies. Had dinner and breakfast on site and both were good, with vegan options for dinner. They also made me a vegetarian breakfast.
The facilities were clean and spacious and the quiet hours (from 9pm-7am) were observed by other guests. The onsen was also very nice.
The only things that could be an issue were the under pass from the station to the hostel which had stairs on either side and could be a struggle for those with mobility supports as there didn't seem to be a lift. There also only seemed to be one shower (per gendered rest room) on our floor and only two toilets. This wasn't an issue when I was there, but I imagine it may get busy during peak times.
