Top Motohakone Hotel Reviews

Hakone Gora KARAKU (ORIX HOTELS & RESORTS)

10/10 Excellent

"A truly incredible experience!! The room, amenities, food and staff were all phenomenal!! As soon as you walk into the room, you are greeted with the most amazing views and private onsen. My husband and I wanted to make this trip special and I’m so glad we booked this property because it achieved that goal. I would absolutely recommend this property to any person visiting Hakone. It was amazing! Also, the food packages are absolutely worth it— at the very least book the breakfast and then grab dinner separately one of the nights!"

Hotel Indigo Hakone Gora by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel waa outstanding! The staff were so friendly and helpful from check in, to shuttles, breakfast, room questions, and the farewell at check out. They went the extra mile for you. I loved my room! It was spacious, well designed with a comfortable bed and a wonderful private onsen to enjoy while listening to the little waterfall. I didnt want to leave the room. And I can't wait to come back!"
