Vuoristonäköala Hotels in Ashigarashimo District

"The hotel itself is not bad - beds are comfortable and large, and the dinner is okay, but nothing too special. This hotel overwhelmingly caters to families, which is evident when staying there: there are many children, and a lot of the amenities cater to them as well. For example the sauna is not very hot and there’s a lot of candies in the free snack bar. I wish the hotel was better at communicating / marketing this on their website, as I’m not the intended audience and it’s very expensive for a mediocre experience. As well, the breakfast timing is questionable - only available from 7am - 8:30am, along with a 10am checkout time this is quite an early start and not very relaxing."

"酒店不大，但很安靜，在一個温泉村，連住兩天比較適合，離湯河原車站最近，但有2公里，走路有些累，酒店有專車可以免費送。"

"The location was amazing right when you get off from Shinjuku - the amenities are nice and the staff helpful. Just note that checkout is at 10:00AM and getting a late one requires you to pay. A bit pricey, but not in comparison to other options in Hakone."

"The entrance is right in front of Gora Station, so transportation wouldn't be an issue. Plenty of shops and places to eat around the station, but they close pretty early. The front desk staff can speak English and explained everything clearly, from the type of onsen, the bathing hours, meals, and how to get to our rooms (it was in a separate building). The onsen are great, the outdoor private bathtub is great, but the water cools off pretty quickly in winter. The room is very spacious and they also provide an extra futon. I could do a bit of work comfortably in the rooms while resting. They have a bunch of amenities at the lobby, you could make tea, coffee, get some ice cream and bring them to your rooms. The breakfast and dinner were very delicious. You need reservations for meals since the seats are limited."

"We booked a one-night stay with dinner and breakfast. The room was clean, the facilities were good, and the food was tasty. The hot spring was small but clean and comfortable. However, the hotel was under renovation during our stay."

"Minulla ei ollut suuria odotuksia, kun päätin jäädä tänne. Se oli vain hotelli yöksi, mutta saavuttuani tajusin, että tämä paikka tarjosi minulle paljon yllätyksiä täällä oli luonnollisia kuumia lähteitä, mutta en odottanut, että voit käydä kylvyssä, ja kuumat lähteet ovat erittäin hyviä. Toinen yllätys on, että ennen kuin tulin tänne, ajattelin löytää Hakonesta paikan, josta voisin nähdä Fuji-vuoren, en odottanut näkeväni sen hotellin laiturilta, jossa on laaja näkymä ja kaunis kuvakulma. Kolmanneksi, palveluhenkilökunta osaa kommunikoida taitavasti kiinaksi ja heidän vilpitön ja ystävällinen tapansa saa minut vieraalla maalla matkustavana tuntemaan oloni lämpimämmiksi."

"Absolutely love this place! The staff are very friendly, and the onsen is clean and well-maintained. There are 3 outdoor pools and 2 indoor pools, along with a steam room and sauna, which make for a relaxing experience. The facility is open for both day trips and overnight stays, but staying overnight is much better for a more chill and leisurely time. There’s a massage chair available, but it requires payment. Breakfast is also delicious and definitely worth it. The only downside is the location—it’s not very convenient and requires some walking. If you’re traveling light, it’s manageable. They do have a payable shuttle bus, but the timing isn’t great. Walking can be pleasant if the weather’s nice, or you can opt for a taxi. Overall, I’ll definitely book this place again for the relaxing atmosphere!"

"The private onsen service was terrible. Please do not get the private onsen. The receptionist in the onsen does not understand english. The receptionist also did not assist us. The time was also incorrect. We were supposed to have 8-9 and 9-10 slot. But ahe is so confused. And 9:30 they are already knocking our doors calling us to come out. A totally bad experience in the private onsen. The hotel is ok. Food is also good. The private onsen which was supposed to be the highlight of our trip… became the worst. Total waste of money"

"Our stay at the hotel was overall excellent, and we would still highly recommend it, especially for couples looking for a pleasant getaway. Almost everything was perfect—the room was clean and comfortable, the facilities were great, and every other staff member we encountered was polite and helpful. It’s truly a lovely place to spend time together. However, our check-in experience was noticeably unpleasant due to one staff member. She came across as unwelcoming and impatient, almost as if we were bothering her. She rushed through the process and felt quite pushy, especially when repeatedly questioning which language we preferred—even though we tried communicating in both Japanese and English. Her attitude made us feel uncomfortable and somewhat unwanted at first. Aside from this one incident, everything else was wonderful. We hope the hotel addresses such front-desk service issues so that future guests can enjoy a consistently welcoming experience from start to finish."

"Matkalla Hakone Yumoto Station -bussipysäkille kulkee kartion muotoinen bussilinja Sinun tulee ottaa A-kurssin bussi ja jäädä pois Okada-hotellissa, joka on aivan viimeisen pysäkin edessä. Kuljetus maksaa 200 jeniä per aikuinen, vain käteinen, ja kolikoiden vaihto ei ole mahdollista bussissa, joten jos kerrot, he vaihtavat sen sinulle. Kun olet matkustanut bussilla noin 5 minuuttia, nouse Okada-hotellin hissin 8. kerrokseen, mene Hakone no Mori -käytävälle ja siirry sitten ramppia pitkin. Portaat ovat noin yhden kerroksen korkeammalla. Jos tarvitset, tiedustele Okada Hotel ＜-＞ Hakonenomori autolla, niin sinne on helpompi saapua. Liikkuminen on hieman vaikeaa, mutta ulkokylpy on todella mukavaa. Yunosaton puolella on 6 erilaista ulkokylpyä miehille ja naisille, joten niissä on hyvä liottaa vuorotellen ja Okada Hotellin puolella on sisäkylpy ja ulkokylpylä, mutta tuntuu vähän julkiselta kylpylältä, joten suosittelen menemään vain Yunosatoon. Okada-hotellin 8. kerroksessa on jalkakylpy matkalla Hakone no Moriin, mikä on mukavaa. Illallinen ja aamiainen sisältyivät hintaan, mutta jos tilaat illallisen vakiona, se tarjoillaan tarjottimella. Voit syödä Yunosaton toisessa kerroksessa ja tilata muita ruokalistoja yksitellen tai mukaan. Aamiainen on buffet Hakonenomorin kellarissa, ja vaikka se ei ole kovin monipuolinen, se ei ole paha pikapalaksi. Okada-hotellin pääportilta 10 minuutin kävelymatkan päässä on Tensei Mart -niminen lähikauppa, joka on avoinna klo 9 asti (kortit hyväksytään). Hotellissa on juomien ja jäätelön myyntiautomaatti sekä välipalabaari, jossa myydään välipaloja. Lähistöllä ei ole ravintoloita, joten kannattaa miettiä etukäteen mitä syö. Tarkista bussin aikataulut uloskirjautumisen yhteydessä ja ole jonossa 15–20 minuuttia ennen bussin kyytiin pääsyä. Sukkula on minibussi, joten monet ihmiset eivät pääse siihen, mutta jos jonot myöhään, et edes pääse kyytiin. Monet ihmiset odottivat alemmalla pysäkillä, mutta eivät päässeet kyytiin. Se oli 220 000 wonia sisältäen aamiaisen ja illallisen arkipäivänä, ja olin henkilökohtaisesti tyytyväinen."
