4-Star Hotels in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan

The environment is very good. In the beautiful garden, it is not convenient to just carry a suitcase down a steep slope. Fortunately, a big Japanese brother came to help with the luggage. The shower water in the room is too flush and not concentrated, the lighting switch position design is not good, and it is not convenient to turn off the lights at night. The old people in charge were very nice. The air conditioner sounded a lot to help fix it. Last night, the power was cut off and I helped bring my luggage to another hotel. Thank you very much!

First stop in Hakone! We stayed at Hakone Kowakien Mikawaya Ryokan. It is right there when you get off the mountain bus ”Horaien”. It is very convenient. Check-in is not until 3 o'clock. We arrived early and stored our luggage first. We went to the nearby Okada Museum of Art (8 minutes walk). If you want to visit carefully, you need to stay at least 2 hours. Then we took the bus to the Open-Air Museum (10 minutes by bus). The wind was really strong that day, but we walked around for more than an hour. After we came back, we waited in the hut next to us when we checked in. We were served a cup of tea and a fruit. Someone would take us to the room later and introduce the hotel facilities. The three standard yukatas in the room are S, M and L sizes. Please make sure they fit. The whole hotel is very cold. There is no central air conditioning. The room is heated by the warm air. It is also very cold to walk along the corridor inside the hotel to the large bath and restaurant. We stayed in the hotel for too long. I booked a one-night stay with two meals. The specialty beer, I don't remember what it is called, you can try it, but don't have too high expectations. I think it is just average. I always think Kyoto's beer is delicious. The hotel's hot spring has one indoor pool and one outdoor pool. They are not big. It is a bit crowded for three people. But the water is very clean. There is an hour of free drinks in the cabin at check-in from 9pm to 10pm, including red wine, white wine, whiskey, white wine, orange juice and apple juice. There is also a 24-hour coffee machine. In general, this hotel is worth recommending. It is cost-effective and the service attitude is also good. There is a guy who can speak Chinese.

We stayed here with our family of seven on March 29th and 30th. On Saturday the 29th, it rained heavily so we couldn't do any sightseeing, but we were able to relax at the spa next to the hotel. We stayed in rooms on the second and first floors, and from the second floor rooms you can see the ocean right in front of you, so the view is amazing. From the first floor, you can't see the ocean very well, so the view isn't so great. If you're staying there, I recommend a room above the second floor. When we made a reservation for dinner, the staff member told us that the early hours were fully booked and we had to start from 8:00, but the person in charge explained to us that ”we have small children, so we've booked an early hour starting from 5:30,” which was very helpful. We had three small children, so we were very impressed with their amazing service. The next day, the weather was good, and we took a walk on the promenade around the hotel in the morning. The sea breeze was pleasant and the surrounding scenery was beautiful, making us want to come back again. There are still not many foreign tourists, and it's close to Tokyo, so I think it's a hidden gem of a tourist spot.

I was on a business trip to Japan and stayed 16 night at the Hotel and I had an excellent experience during the entire stay at the Metropolitan Kawasaki Hotel. The location of the hotel is very convenient and the service provided by the front desk staff and the room was very clean and comfy. I can highly recommend this Hotel to any business traveler to Japan.

Booked 2 rooms for family of 5. Got upgraded during check-in, what a pleasant surprise. Location was fantastic, with minatomirai line train being next door. Parked our car at pier, about 5mins of walking. Close to red brick warehouse . Will definitely stay again if we’re in town.

This is the second time I stayed here. The sea view room is really comfortable. Although there are some historical traces in the room, you can see Mount Fuji in the morning. When the tram passes by, it really looks like a scene from a Japanese drama. There is also a golf course driving range in front of the hotel. It was fun to practice in the morning. No one smoked, no loud noises, and no mobile phones were played. 👍 It takes about 9 minutes to walk to the station. It is still very convenient. The scenery along the tram is also very good. There are also many places to eat nearby.

The hotel is in a very good location, just beside the odawara train station and mall. The hotel breakfast was decent and the room is slightly bigger compared to other hotel rooms we stay in. Overall would recommend!

The hotel is conveniently located to Kamakura station, approximately 5mins walk. There's a familymart just beside the hotel and a supermarket opposite. The hotel interior is very clean and minimalist. There's a muji cafe and store at level 1. Overall, we were satisfied with the stay.

AMAZING HOTEL. Love the hotel-ryokan fusion vibes ❤️❤️ 2 beds + 1 sofa that's big enough to serve as a bed. They also have kid's amenities set that includes toothbrush, room slippers and a hankerchief. Staff's english was really good here so no worried The location is super convenient, ~5mins walk from Kamakura station and komachi-dori. Will definitely choose to stay here again if we head over.

This Ryokan is a bit secluded. Do email them if you need a free shuttle van service coming from the Yugawara train station (van service started after 2pm). Their is service is outstanding from the moment you arrived at the hotel. The room is huge and lovely. The open air bath area offered a nice scenic view during the day. The night view of the moon and stars while soaking in the bath is even more stunning. The Kaiseki dinner and breakfast were delicious. The service staff was very professional and tried their best to explain the different courses of food with their limited English. Highly recommended for people to experience their first Ryokan stay.
