Hakone Hotel Guide - Hakone Pirate Ship hotels in Hakone, Japan.

"We very much enjoyed our stay at Hakone Kowakien TEN-YU and left feeling thoroughly satisfied with the overall experience. We stayed for three days and two nights on a half-board basis, and both dinner and breakfast consistently exceeded expectations. The traditional Japanese kaiseki dinner was beautifully presented and thoughtfully prepared, and the hot pot experience was equally memorable. Each meal felt carefully curated rather than routine, which we greatly appreciated. One of the highlights was the sunrise onsen. There is something quite special about soaking in the open-air bath while watching the morning light unfold — it was genuinely breathtaking. Breakfast, too, was generous in variety and high in quality. If we were to mention one small point, it would concern the blackout curtains. As we were travelling with a young child, the room tended to become bright quite early in the morning, which occasionally meant an earlier start to the day than we might have hoped. A slightly more complete blackout arrangement would perhaps make the experience even more comfortable for families. That said, considering the price point, the standard of accommodation, dining and overall atmosphere represents remarkable value. We were sufficiently impressed that we have already arranged to return in November, which perhaps says more than anything else."

"Staff is extremely courteous and helpful. Very nice stay!"

"早餐和晚餐非常棒, 溫泉也很舒服, 房間比預期的小一些"

"Beautiful Mt Fuji views from our suite. The most incredible and responsive service from the front office staff who provided efficient and timely transportation by shuttle to nearby bus/transportation stops as well as to dinner and even the conbini one night when the only restaurant that was open (Jan 1) was full. It is definitely a food desert in that area, but we made do just fine. We enjoyed the shared onsen which was not busy at all. "

"The villa is great. We loved everything about the unit. It was spacious and clean, had lots of amenities, and the private onsen was great. The layout for us (6 people) was awesome. The unit had multiple toilets and places to get ready. The fully equipped kitchen was very much welcomed. While we did not cook, and only heated up store-bought food and cup noodles, there are pots and pans and even an outdoor grill if you want to cook. There is even a vending machine that has limited food options to cook. There are drawbacks, and mainly it is the location. It is not easy to get there with public transportation, there are no convenient store within walking distance and restaurant options are limited. Also this check in was harder than it needed to be. The app/link they sent ahead of time for check in was slow and kept having error, so I ended checking in on the tablet in the room, but that was a bad expereince as well. It took over 45 min for me to self check in, scan passports, type in information etc... But overall, we really enjoyed the time we spent at the Villa and onsen. Great place to relax and decompress and have a rest/slow day. "

"We had the room with the private onsen. It was amazing. The quality of the service was great in every area that comes to mind. Both dining and breakfast buffet were incredibly good. Lots of options for every taste. Would definitely repeat and recommend to friends."
