Enjoyed my stay immensely - the staff was wonderful, the food was amazing (they offer both Japanese and Western options each meal, I chose Japanese), and the patio and onsen and was so peaceful and relaxing.

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. 申しわけありませんでした! 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.

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.
