Hoshino Resorts KAI Hakone Map, Address, Transportation & Nearest Stations and Airport

Opened the third floor (B1-2) old store for more than 40 years, there are a total of 11 rooms. There is no fun around a small lake. The 5 rooms are duplex with stairs and the spa is separate from the bedroom. The best scenery is Sora, almost four floors, the function rooms are separated, but a lot of stairs need to climb. The hot spring is on the top of the building, and the entire Xianshiyuan scenery is unobstructed - but there is no ceiling covering. We live in the kaza wind, the big flat, the scenery is only the other side of the forest, but it is not bad to climb the stairs. Before the check-in, the store will clean the pool and put the hot springs. If it is with breakfast and dinner, it will be sent to the room, but the taste is just like it. The appreciation of the food is very shallow. The store said that the weekend room was almost guaranteed one month in advance. We stayed on Sunday night and took a leak, but the price of the store also rose by 30%. In addition, although it is full, but almost no other guests. Privacy is very good. From the hotel to the taxi to go to Gotemba outlets for about 5,000 yen, about 15 minutes, are mountain roads. The traffic is a bit inconvenient.

The hotel is very close to Gora Station. It takes only 4 minutes to walk to the hotel. The staff's service attitude is very good. When we walked to the hotel, they were already waiting for us on the ramp. We were greeted with snacks and drinks when we entered the hotel, so we didn't have to queue to check in. Check out, as soon as you sit down, you will be greeted. I booked 1 hotel room and 2 meals. I chose Japanese food for dinner and Western food for breakfast. Both meals were of a very high standard. The view of Hakone Mountain from the breakfast was very comfortable. Originally I thought about traveling around Hakone on the first day, but ended up spending the whole day in the hotel. The hotel environment is so comfortable. You can hear the sound of running water on the terrace. I will definitely book 2 nights next time.

In Kyoritsu Resort, it is the most popular and favorite inn of my home. The lobby lounge was crowded, so I relaxed because I had coffee until check-in on a large terrace outside the lounge. From this terrace, you can see the forest tree 々 and it is designed to hear the sound of the water. Even after the next morning's bath, I came to the lounge and drank morning coffee and cold black bean tea. The coolness of the terrace outside is relieved when the hot water is up. The green leaves are still beautiful, and with the sound of water, it is really healed. When I went to a bath with a large bath, the basket in the dressing room was a locker type. The locker pattern was bamboo or bamboo, and it was dark peppermint color and white (Hawaii?), and it did not match the atmosphere of the original ancient bath at all. When I returned to the room and visited the locker with me, I said, ”it's cheap”, and I feel completely the same. I don't see such a pattern even in day trip hot water. As I said that the chair of the hot water (drinking milk) was lost, I had a rest place with a TV at the end (the opposite direction to the elevator). Also, the morning lactic acid beverage was changed to this place. The bath was in the morning of the next morning, and after a long time, I went to the rental open-air bath. It's nice to feel like a bath in the forest (just a bath). Also, when you go to another large bath, you still use a basket in the dressing room (there is a locker for the key of the room), strange tropical? I was relieved that I didn't become a locker. This is also an ancient bath. Dinner was the quietest seat in the back when I put a quiet seat and a request. The content of the meal and the person in charge were good. Only this inn has 60 minutes of alcohol at dinner in Kyoritsu Resort, which I have stayed so far. Because it is 60 minutes, this service is happy because it is not too much to drink. I like the point that I can slow because I check out at 11 o'clock.

Style. Taisho era traditional onsen Setting. Hakone Suishoen is a cultural property that belonged to the Mitsui family, built 1925 Explore. Hakone. Was here late October, Hakone is a beautiful area and it is almost autumn foliage season Rooms. 23 rooms on the property surrounded by old maple trees and bamboos. Two beds in room Hananome. Sisley amenities. Large shower area that steps out into the outdoor onsen which faces the trees, found it to be truly restorative as I felt a bit beaten down when I arrived. Complimentary mini bar (except for the champagne and Macallan). Dark wood furnishings in my room looked dated and room had very little windows and natural light @ the hotel. great service throughout my stay, although strange to be served welcome tea in a paper cup. Didn’t try the public onsen. High quality souvenirs in the restaurant and lobby shop. Meals in the gorgeous historic Mitsui property Food and drinks Excellent traditional kaiseki dinner and breakfast in a private room in the historic Mitsui residence (aka restaurant Momiji). Built 1925 but still comfortable (ie floor heating) I was in Japan for three nights and while this was not a Michelin restaurant ( tried a few during this trip ), dinner here was my favorite and my comfort food. I kept on thinking about how food is functional medicine and this place hit the spot Prices. Moderate $662 as included a delicious dinner and breakfast Rating. 4/5 ( everything was perfect except for the welcome drink in a paper cup and my room’s decor/lighting )

Not far from main Hakone region but in a quiet and rural area lies this historical (started in 17th century) but well-groomed ryokan. It was conveniently located though, just a few minutes’ walk from the local bus stop leaving from Odawara or Yumoto Train Station. The original un-recycled hot spring water has a superb quality (don’t need a skin lotion after bathing), which is augmented by the well-managed care of guests including excellent omakase food and friendly and courteous services by the staff. I was really impressed and thankful that they prepared a small birthday cake for my birthday which was 2 days after the checkout day. This was contrasted with the next ryokan in the same region that didn’t care about my birthday :) I will definitely visit again when I’m in Hakone.

A good hotel, except that the breakfast time is too early, everything else is good

When choosing the Hakone Hotel, I was struggling for a long time and finally chose the ”Shanjiazhuang” without a single comment. I found this place and stayed in a panic, but it didn't disappoint. Next, I will talk about my own ”heart journey”, ”hotel address, ”hotel facilities and check-in experience” of my own reservation, hoping to help everyone who is also entangled. 1. My journey: I knew how expensive hotels are when I came to Japan during the cherry blossom season, so I searched it with the mood of trying it out. The price of hotels near Hakone before and after Qingming Festival is basically around 2500-3700 (for 2 people without tax). Of course the expensive ones will not be mentioned. Then when I looked at the price, I found this ”Shanjiazhuang”. The price was more than 1,700 including tax. I was more tempted at that time. Only then did I find that this hotel did not have a review, and there was no stay. There are few comments, and there are no real pictures in the comments. This made me feel a little bit at a loss. During the time of hesitating and wandering among the alternative hotels, the price of the 3 alternative hotels either rose to 5000 or there was no room type that I wanted to live in, but nothing changed at Shanjiazhuang. Decisively booked with the photos given by the hotel official. 2. Hotel address: The address is easier to find. After getting off at Hakone-Yumoto Station, you can find it by searching for Yamazhuang or Yamagaso in Google Maps, which is quite accurate. Just see the sign of ”Xianjing” in Picture 1 and Picture 2. Figure 3 is the gate of Shanjiazhuang. If you arrive before 3 pm, the door of Shanjiazhuang cannot be opened. At this time, you don’t need to knock on the door or shout, just go to the front desk of the ”Xianjing” hotel next to you to check in and store your luggage ( Their two hotels are one, Shanjiazhuang is a very Japanese-style hotel, and Xianjing is just like a normal hotel). 3. Hotel facilities: After entering the villa, a large cherry blossom tree and Japanese garden view came into view (Picture 5), a very Japanese sense of sight. At this time, the panic in my heart has disappeared, and I entered the room again. The scenes I saw made me feel that the price is worth it, and it feels good to be a guinea pig. When you enter the hotel, there will be a Japanese grandmother who will follow you and introduce you to the usage of various facilities (if there is a little brother who can speak Chinese in the small partner hotel who can not speak Japanese), then I will introduce it as a grandma first: in the hotel There are 3 places for hot springs, one is a family-style private bathing room, which can realize the mixed bathing of the whole family (it should be noted that if there are clogs outside this room, you must not go in. Because someone else is already bathing in it (Picture 9); the other is an indoor large bath, where men and women are bathed separately; the last is an open-air bath (for men and women, the open-air bath is only for women on the day I arrived, while men are It can only be soaked the next day, and the opening hours are from 6 in the morning to 12 in the evening). After entering the room, my little Chinese brother helped us make the bed, while the Japanese grandmother served us 2 cups of freshly brewed tea and introduced us to the usage of various things in the room. I won’t go into details here. Anyway, the various facilities in the room are attentive and considerate that you can't think of. By the way, there is also a bathtub in the room to soak in (Figure 4). 4. Check-in experience: pure Japanese-style service, pure Japanese-style room, full of Japanese-style experience. When we booked the room, the room rate did not include breakfast and dinner, so we added a kaiseki dinner for 2 people (10,800 yen per person). The whole Japanese service is very comfortable, but the taste of kaiseki is Chinese. I really can't eat it. ps. There is a delicious curry restaurant 300 meters downhill from the hotel, you can try it.

　I stayed on January ５ day as last year. The room is a low-rise room as usual. The lower floors can see the moon, stars and the rising sun through the leaves of the garden tree 々. The upper floors are not disturbed by the trees 々 and you can enjoy the surrounding mountains 々 landscape. ４ I have never stayed above the floor, but I think the scenery on the lower floors in winter is lonely and Qing 々. I don't think I'll come again if my first stay was the mountain side room I saw on YouTube. After spring, it has a hot spring inn in the forest in the leaves of the tree 々, and it has a different taste, but I like winter. This time, when I changed the iPhone to a new model, I was able to take a good picture of the garden and the stars at night. Overall, I am satisfied with the same wonderfulness. If I dare to say something I was interested in, I take pictures of the meal every time, but the tea confectionery at the reception was the same as last year (of course I am satisfied). I requested the size of the clothes in the building in advance and prepared it. Is not small, and last year there was nothing to wear on the clothes in the hall like a vest (I don't know what to say) (because it looks like a farmer?), The maximum size of the clothes I bought at the shop last year is pink-colored building I bought an inner dress, but the inner dress prepared in the room was the same white gray? (Since it was the same color last year, it may be the same color even if you make a reservation for a man and woman. Or is there a number depending on the size?) The same was true when I stayed at another hotel in Hakone Yumoto at the end of the year, but the dinner dishes were served. , From last year, I felt that it was small or the amount was small. Compared to the photos when I stayed last year, I really get worried. I was worried that the food would be smaller as the room rate was rising from last year. The good thing was that the staff at various places were as good as ever. There were many non-al drinks beside the elevator. There was a low evaluation on SNS in advance, but it is true that there are customers, but there are staff who are dissatisfied with colleagues in a low voice, or the number of staff at the restaurant is narrowed. Is it , I couldn't come immediately after pressing the doorbell button, but it was acceptable to me. I've never seen it like I was on SNS here. I wanted to use it in the future. Finally, I bought it here last year, but I can't wear it because it seems to be ”stealed” at the same Kyoritsu resort, but I used it at other hotels and was popular with foreign tourists. It is often used when staying at other hot spring inns. I would like you to always have various sizes of colors. The next time I stay, I would like to buy it if there is a color for overseas souvenirs.
