Pros: In-room bath Cons: Food, service, staff attitude This hotel is highly rated on Expedia and priced as a luxury hotel, so my expectation was high. Most of the staffs do not speak proper Japanese OR English, and they had poor attitude. Far from the standard of service quality you'd expect from a high end Ryokan. Food was mediocre at best, with some items that must have been left outside for a few hours. We ordered a steak dinner, and though the meat seemed to be of good quality they asked us to cook on our own with this tiny candle type heating device. Since the meat was thick, it took us over ONE HOUR to cook. Because of this it took us long time to finish eating, and while our table was still full of food, we were asked if we were ready for desserts... We felt constantly rushed in several occasions. Isn't this supposed to be a relaxing resort? I only read a few positive reviews before booking, but now after our stay I'm reading the past negative reviews and can't agree more with most of them. I wished that I read them all before booking. 滊䞋で24æ™‚é–“æ”ă‚ŒăŠă„ă‚‹äžæ°—ć‘łăȘéŸłæ„œă€éŁŸäș‹ă‹ă‚‰ăƒă‚§ăƒƒă‚Żă‚ąă‚Šăƒˆæ™‚ăŸă§ă™ăć‚ă§ç›źă‚’ć…‰ă‚‰ă›ăŠæ€„かすようăȘ態ćșŠăźćŸ“æ„­ć“Ąă€é€†ăźæ„ć‘łă§äž€ç”Ÿćż˜ă‚Œă‚‰ă‚ŒăȘă„è©±ăźăƒă‚żă‚’ă„ăŸă ăăŸă—ăŸă€‚äșŒćșŠăšèšȘă‚ŒăŸă›ă‚“ă€‚ Expediaăźé«˜è©•äŸĄăŒäżĄă˜ă‚‰ă‚ŒăŸă›ă‚“ă€‚æœŹćœ“ă«ăŒăŁă‹ă‚Šă§ă™ă€‚

The best experience we have ever had! We were given a drink on arrival, escorted to the most majestic room we’ve ever stayed in before a phenomenal dinner. We woke ourselves up by getting in the onsen as snow hit the mountains and roofs around us! 10/10, the most memorable experience!

Thank you for a cosy stay!

My husband and I stayed here as part of a trip to Japan to celebrate our 10-year anniversary. The staff made us feel welcome and the decor was so wonderful! We really enjoyed the private hot tub in our traditional tatami room. As for the kaiseki dinner, it was delicious but I wasn't prepared for the sheer amount of food! I am not a very big eater (at night) and the successive services impressed me a lot! I think it would have been a suitable amount of food for 3 people. Unfortunately for me, I couldn't make it to the end and ended up wasting some of the meal. As I know Japanese etiquette requires you to finish every thing so as to not waste, I felt bad for a while after. ç”łă—ă‚ă‘ă‚ă‚ŠăŸă›ă‚“ă§ă—ăŸ! Hakone was a quiet moment to ourselves, nestled between Kyoto and Tokyo during our trip. We had a lovely time, thank you!

I loved my stay at Hakone Airu. It was peaceful, quiet and the staff were able to speak English. The facility was very tourist friendly. I absolutely loved the private onsen and being able to dip in and out whenever we liked. The lounge space next to the private onsen is such a bonus. The bathroom and shower were very clean as well. The only slight discomfort was the fact the shower is exposed to the outside so can be very cold when you initially step in the shower during winter time.

This ryukon was okay. I loved the private onsen and amazing mountain view. However if you’re getting into the onsen, there are buildings below that may slightly see you. There is a branch gate in front, but it could use more branches for coverage. They provided a kimono. Their food options in hotel were terrible.. food places were a little bit more of a further walk away. I would not necessarily come back to this place, although it was a good experience.

Good.. but a little disappointed

I think this ryokan is somewhat overrated on Hotels.com. Specifically, first, it is definitely showing its age. Second, if you have back problems, the accommodation might be uncomfortable, because the seat thing is at floor level. I requested a table and a chair, but they didn’t have a high enough table. I found that surprising. The meals are fantastic and the staff are extremely polite.

I would not stay here again. 2nd cup of coffee was extra. Everything extra. Staff has poor communication skills, does not understand. No one is helpful- rules, rules, rules. No management visible or available. Did not honor Expedia perks. Overall not good.

10/10 Excellent

No taxi service or shuttle to the station. No sidewalks to get to station. Onsen water lacks minerals and doesn’t leave your skin feeling silky or smooth. Didn’t offer dinner service with no restaurant nearby. Thankfully we were given breakfast and it was adequate. Considering the price, dinner should definitely be included.

I would highly recommend this hotel. We had a room with a private onsen and enjoyed sitting in it whenever we wanted. A private breakfast and dinner are included and the food was amazing. No need to pay for expensive Kaiseki. We have never felt so pampered.

The hotel is nice and clean. Dining room staff was nice but food was mediocre. Front office staff can be more guest service focused and speak better English

The dining table was too low so my knees hit beneath the table. The bath room wash area was too cold as it was an open space.
