Thank you for a good stay. The breakfast option at the hotel was nice since the area doesn’t have too many dining places (that’s just Hakone for you). But the location was pretty good and the hotel had everything we needed for the most part for the two nights we stayed. I would recommend to others or come back myself. Thank you.

Property was clean and the room was very large. Breakfast was also nice and had some variety. Using the Gora underpass we arrived to our hotel in 2 minutes walking from the station. The onsen wasn't working due to heavy rain. We were sent to another hotel to use their onsen about a 6-7 min walk away but it did subtract from the experience. I understand nature is out of our hands but I feel like the hotel could have offered something out of the minibar complimentary due to the inconvenience of it.

The staff was very friendly, I definitely would stay here again.

Good Onsen

Good location, close to Gora station. And it has a very good ONSEN! Love it. But, no private toilet :( . It provides a ear plugs in the welcome package, yes, noise in night time. It is affordable for budget traveller in compare to the other hotels in the district.

とてもきれいなホテル

2泊させていただきました。施設はとてもきれいでお掃除が行き届いていました。お風呂は少しぬるめでよかったです。(私は熱いお風呂に入る習慣のない国にすんでいるため、ちょうどよかったです。洗い場は少し寒い気がしましたが、苦情するほどではありません。お部屋は2人でちょうど良い広さです。玄関の靴を脱ぐ場所がぎりぎりの狭さでした。枕が一人につき2つ付いていたのは嬉しかったです。 朝食はとても美味しかった。特に豆のサラダ、ミネストローネ、ニンジンのドレッシング、リンゴのジャムが美味しくておかわりをしてしまいました。 エコに徹底していてよかったです。夜うるさいお客さんとかもいなくてよく休むことができました。ありがとうございました。

What a great stay!! We travelled with our two teenage boys and I wasn’t sure how the hostel would be for us but our quadruple room was amazing. Kids loved the bunk beds. The traditional onsen was fabulous and I used every day. Super close to train/ cable car and the breakfast was very helpful each morning. The review would not be complete without mentioning the amazing staff. They were all so helpful and patient. Went out of their way to help us with dinner recommendations and directions. So friendly and professional. We loved our stay.

Hakone-Gora is a quiet area near the base of the cable cars taking you up for a My Fuji view. There are a few eateries and bars but not much else, and the eateries close early. As such it is great if you want a relaxing night and the Emblem Flow has great Japanese style rooms and a terrific Onsen, Also looks to be a good base for walking in the area. We loved it after the bustle of Tokyo.

Our stay here was wonderful. The room was spotless and the staff were incredibly kind. The onsen is small (max 6 ppl) but that was never an issue. The included breakfast was a smallish buffet style of mostly western type foods, salads, scrambled eggs, yogurt, breads. The convenience of the location, minutes away from Gora station, made arriving and doing the Hakone loop so easy! Lovely spot overall.

We had a great stay here, the room was large. The meals with our package were very good. Particularly the dinner, It was delicious. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The only negatives for us were the beds are very firm. I would also suggest that you book a top floor room as the second floor gets a lot of noise from above, you can hear every footstep as people walk around
