Independent, Odawara hotels

"Highlight of our trip. We had a room with balcony and private onsen. Magical. Food was excellent!"

"As of July 2025 the private onsen are BRAND NEW, the staff told me they just redid them . Do not different than the photos online, but still extremely comfortable. This place is excellent, the staff was very friendly and the room was spacious and so quiet. Very good value"

"One of the most beautiful hot spring resorts I have ever visited in the world. I will be back again to soak up the healing water, admire the stunning view of the Pacific and appreciate the hospitality of the wonderful staff. "

"What a beautiful, relaxing place to stay. The buffet was very delicious. The onsen was heaven. We had our own tub on the balcony that was a dream. The shuttle stops frequently and can take you quite far, and can get you connected to the trains. They have free coffee and ice cream that my kids were obsessed with. Connected to a nice market and a water park. Breathtaking views!"

"Clean modern surroundings. Excellent services. "

"Very nice employees and hotel. Highly recommended"

"One of the iconic hotels in all of Japan. If you’re in Japan and want to explore the Hakone area, you have to stay here. The service is impeccable, the hotel has 140+ years of history, and the dining choices are superb. Well worth the stay. And did I mention the staff? They welcomed me back (I had stayed years before) as if I were an honored guest. That little item made my day. I will return someday."

"Beautiful onsen, very hiddrn and quiet. Seems like an authentic Japan experience for foreign travelers. Wonderful private hot spring baths. Choice of western or Japanese slerping arrangements. Ie. Beds or futon mats on real tatami floors. The dinner and breakfast alone are worth the stay. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Especially when navigating cultural differences. "

"Very excellent choice for a great birthday week!! "
