Very nice hotel, beautiful green and nice views. Once you reach hotel only option is hotel restaurants. Not a lot of options for vegetarians. We had 8:30AM train from Odawara and it would suggest people to book later trains.

What an amazing property! Wish we could have stayed longer. We had a room with a private bath on the balcony. The room also had an amazing massage chair. We loved the clothing provided for the Onsen - so comfortable (other than the shoes - they were not made for big American feet). Free ice cream tokens whenever you wanted. The garden on the property was amazing. Buffet dinner was a bit chaotic and confusing as we were sat at a table in the back and were not told we could go to the buffet any time so we sat for a while before we figured it out. The food choices at dinner and breakfast were amazing and high quality. We would definitely return again and highly recommend!

Nice property for those wanting a Ryokan experience without sleeping on the floor. Great private onsen in your room. Spacious rooms and comfortable beds. Hotel was very crowded during our stay. We were disappointed with the buffet dinner, very overpriced in our opinion. Good location from station. Average location for lake activities, would recommend staying closer to the lake if you don’t have a car.

Nice location and property, but added charges for an extra person even though they were on the original booking. This was the only hotel in my 2 week Japan trip that didn’t provide water bottles and it was 6 times more expensive for the room. They are listed as an Expedia ViP location, but when I inquired about it, acted like I was crazy. I would stay again for the location and hot springs, but only at about half the price not counting the extra person portion they stronged-armed us for. Expedia - you need to pick better VIP partners.

Unfortunately disappointing. Severely overrated for the price point. Only few positives were the breakfast and the onsen onsite. Room size along with features underwhelming for the exhaustive cost. Setting / Location was ok with use of the courtesy bus along with other local options.
