We really enjoyed our stay here. The staff were amazing! My family and I felt like kings and queens. The property is charming, clean, private and well taken care of. We had two rooms one with the onsen and one traditional japanese room for our adult children. All four of us cant talk highly enough about our stay and experience here.

Okay onsen

The open-air bath on the balcony was great. The meals were okay but not as good as we have had at upscale onsen hotels. The shuttle bus service was good, although the bus was not equipped to handle large baggage that foreign tourists usually have. There is not much to do in the immediate vicinity of the hotel so you need to have the shuttle take you to the area around the train station.

Aura Tachibana is a Japanese style Onsen accommodation with large Japanese style rooms facing the mountains. We were checked in by a gentleman called Bappa Mondal from our hometown in India (Kolkata) and he was incredible. He explained all the options, did his best to accommodate the dietary restrictions for my wife and gave valuable advice on local transportations. The room was large, quiet and elegant.

Amazing hotel combined traditional with modernness. We had a large tatami room with regular beds and a Japanese futon bed. It was large and comfortable. Breakfast was Japanese style which we loved. Our daughter however, can not get past eating rice and fish for breakfast. The hotel is not conveniently located, not easily walkable from the train train station. The hotel offers a shuttle bus that takes you to and from train station but stops at 5 pm. You will have to take a taxi, if you return late from Hakone, which costs 600 yen. Otherwise, we loved the stay.

The staff are super friendly and there’s a shuttle that can transport you to the nearby Hakone Yumoto station. (Set schedule though). That’s where the positives end however as we did not find the private onsen all that great and the room itself, although large for Japanese standards, is dark and outdated. The rest of the hotel (aside from the hotel lobby) is outdated. Unfortunately the worst part of the entire experience was bed bugs. Wish we had a better experience.

Property does not has policy for extra guess. We had unexpected guess to come. We willing to pay for the extra but they said the person handled had gone for the day. No one can speak English after 7pm. We saw cockroaches on serving cart after we ate & on the way out. Bugs also in the room & crawl on my daughter arms. We never saw any workers doing any cleaning when we’re there. I don’t think they even vacuum the room after guess leave. The food were good for photos but not freshly prepared. All food were cold & fermented. The only thing hot were miso soup. We’ll come back to the area but not to this hotel.
