Ryokan Hakone Kowakien Tenyu
250-0407 Kanagawa, Hakone, Ninotaira 1297, Japan – Great location - show map
Excellent in any possible way!! Onsen is with amazing view and is to die for. Food is excellent and staffs is always nice and with happy face, special thanks to Moe Kitabayashi for her kindness and hospitality. It is on an expensive side compared to other hotels but definitely worth staying!! Will definitely come back.

This definitely exceeded my expectations, the booking.com site doesn’t do justice. We were greeted by amazing customer service, they carried our bags to our rooms. The room was beautiful with a private onsen bath. The dinner was phenomenal and the service was just as good. It was my boyfriends birthday and they made the birthday plate for us and took and printed a photo of us as a memory. The onsen was also AMAZING. MUST STAY!!! Amazing value for your money.

The staff were unbelievably accommodating. We had planned a dinner off the premises and they were able to get us a taxi there. Unfortunately, taxis back were impossible (service ends around 8pm) and so a staff member personally picked us up in a hotel van to bring us back safely.

The hotel and grounds are beautiful. We loved our room (especially the private bath on the deck!). It snowed on our second day there, so we got to witness the hotel turn into a winter wonderland - it was GORGEOUS. The included breakfast is also great- a lot of options ranging from American to traditional Japanese breakfast. However, the real highlight for us was the onsen facilities. They rotate every the day which is the mens vs womens spa, so you can experience both the infinity pool outdoor spa overlooking the valley one day, then the outdoor grotto spa under a waterfall the next day. I would return to this hotel purely for the onsen experience.

The hotel itself is very modern, sleek, and clean but still with a traditional feel. The public onsen was beautiful and the private baths on the room balconies were also very nice. The staff were all very kind, although they did not all speak great English (some did!). Beds were very comfortable, loved the traditional clothes, and the breakfast spread was huge (Western and Japanese style breakfast on offer). Overall a great experience!

Cleanliness and service were excellent. Both onsen's view were beautiful even in winter season.

This is a perfect choice for a stay in Hakone. We love everything here, good quality food. New facilities. Professional staff.

the best infinity hotspring... staff are good... well recommended

Amazing, unforgettable experience! The ryokan we stayed in was beautifully designed, and we were given a stellar view overlooking the surrounding garden. It was incredible bathing in our private onsen during the winter night and watching the stars. We loved our traditional Kaiseki dinner and phenomenal breakfast buffet. Public onsen facilities were clean and the mountain and waterfall views were gorgeous. Staff were friendly and went out of their way to ensure an enjoyable and memorable time.

This hotel is amazing. I booked it for the onsen bath on the balcony in the room, and it was exactly what I wanted. It was a decent size bath, very comfy for 1 person and we even squeezed 2 on. With a really cute view of the garden and trees. I also booked it for the two public onsens, and both exceeded expectations. Definitely an important ritual of Japanese culture and worth doing, the infinity onsen made the price of this hotel worth it. I liked the position of the hotel on the hill in Gora looking out over the valley. It also has a shuttle bus from Gora station which is necessary as it's too far to walk.
