I highly recommend this beautiful property with wonderful staff and service. Super convenient as this property is only a few minutes' walk from the Sounzan cable car station. Tip - Consider taking a taxi on day of departure instead of local bus as it gets extremely crowded (some folks were declined entry due to full capacity). Should you choose to take the bus, make sure you allot extra travel time as our bus ran 25 minutes late and hit a lot of traffic.

The staff were excellent. They were attentive, showed us around the property, explained what to expect during our stay, and were incredibly helpful with our luggage delivery. The dinner and breakfast were fantastic and the separated dining rooms gave a high-class touch. Our room was spacious, clean, and had access to our wonderful private hot spring bath. The hotel is near the Tozan ropeway, which goes directly to the Tozan train that gives access to the Hakone-Yumoto Station. I would absolutely stay here again.

This place was amazing! I'd go back if only for the smells inside! I've stayed at Yama No Chaya in the Hakone region as well, and Gora Hanougi was better in every way. The location is more remote, but that also comes with no road noises. There's also a nice elevator just for the hotel in the parking lot of Sounzan Station that makes it really easy to get to, though they also have a nice van to take you to/from Gora Station as well.

This Ryokan (traditional Japanese inn) was an incredible experience. Some of the best service I’ve ever encountered and the private onsen was a luxurious experience. The food was excellent with a dozen dishes or more at each meal although it’s worth noting that these are traditional Japanese meals so very fish and pickle forward and lots of food that some Americans and westernersmight not be used to. One of the most luxurious experiences I’ve ever had.
