I've had the pleasure of staying at several high-end hotels, including the Hakone Gora Byakudan. Without a doubt, Byakudan surpasses its competitors in every aspect. The service, facilities, and genuine care for guests are exceptional. I only wish I could have extended my stay. The room was flawlessly clean, and the bed provided a truly restful night's sleep. The staff were consistently friendly and attentive, readily available to assist with any needs. The hotel's location is convenient, offering easy access to local attractions. Additionally, the complimentary car service to nearby destinations such as art museums and the cable station was a thoughtful touch. The Japanese dinner and breakfast were beyond delicious, featuring a diverse array of options. The snacks and wine bar were equally impressive. I particularly enjoyed the massage chair and the delightful ice-cream selection. I wholeheartedly recommend the Hakone Gora Byakudan to anyone visiting the area

We stayed at Byakudan and loved it. The staff were very kind and high quality of service. From the moment we walked in, we were attended to in great detail and provided excellent service and amenities. We stayed in the Jin Suite and it was very spacious, comfortable, clean and relaxing. The furnishings were a nice blend of Japanese and Western. The open air private onsen was large and private. Every dish in the Kaiseki dinner and breakfast were delicious. We will definitely come back to stay at Byakudan in Hakone Gora again!

Private onsen on the room and you can have your own dinning area were super nice. You can enjoy all the amenities in the hotel. Highly recommended for couples and families who want to spend time together and do nothing because the atmosphere there was so relaxed. Friendly staffs and they even drove us to the nearest station.

Very nice and quiet environment for complete relaxation! Great service and can enjoy free coffee & tea/wine/snacks. It's better to stay 2 nights or up.

The experience of staying at Gora Byakudan Hotel was great, completely beyond expectations, a perfect trip to Hakone. Matcha and snacks were provided when checking in, which were very delicious. Miss Takano Saki, who was responsible for checking us in and introducing us, was beautiful and cute ❤️. She could speak a little Chinese and the communication was very smooth. She asked us about our needs very patiently. The room was very large and comfortable, with quite complete supplies and an aromatherapy stove. Each room has a private bath, which is super relaxing after soaking. There is free coffee, tea, and milk all day, and delicious strawberry ice cream at the entrance of the public bath. Free drinks and candy snacks are also provided from 8pm to 11pm. The kaiseki dinner was very good, beautiful, delicate and delicious. It was served one by one, and the whole process took 2 hours. I experienced grinding my own mustard. The young lady who served us introduced the dishes very patiently. The service was very good. The Japanese breakfast on the second day was also very rich, and the grilled fish was super fragrant. 👍

The famous Hakone White Sandalwood The lowest price for a basic room throughout the year is nearly 6,000. It is rare to book it during the May Day Golden Week. A typical Japanese hot spring hotel with strong privacy, a total of 16 rooms, small and beautiful, and great hot spring water quality. One night and two meals, kaiseki cuisine for dinner, and breakfast are also very exquisite. It is estimated that the two meals are worth at least half of the room price. The lobby provides tea and juice all day, and snacks are provided in the evening. Strawberry milk ice cream and chocolate are provided in the refrigerator next to the bathing area. The room has an independent bathing pool, and you can enjoy the hot spring and the garden. The washing and skin care products are a full set of mikimoto, and there are free drinks in the refrigerator. The details reveal the quality.

The private bath is integrated with nature. The Japanese-style living room is spacious, the Western-style bedroom is spacious, and the whole hotel is filled with the scent of sandalwood. The lobby has 24-hour coffee, tea, snacks, and drinks. Dinner and breakfast are very exquisite and colorful, and different foods are provided according to the festival season. It is a very good experience. The service is very thoughtful, with a special car to pick up and drop off at the nearby station. The refrigerator in the room provides free drinks and food. The large bath is not very special, it is just a little bigger.

There are too many complaints, so I will list them one by one: 1. The view from the private bath in the room is very bad; 2. The public bath only has one big pool, and there is no basic configuration of sauna room; 3. The surrounding environment is monotonous, and there are no garden facilities; 4. The shuttle bus is arrogant and only stops at Kowakudani Station; 5. The freshness of the food is average. As one of the top hot spring hotels in Hakone, I have to say that I am quite disappointed.

The price is a bargain. The hotel conditions are really good. After the train arrives at the station, you can call the front desk directly through the platform to ask for a car to pick you up. The old man drove to the car in ten minutes. The food is generally delicious. Don't expect too much surprise or you will be disappointed. The private soup is very comfortable. You can experience it yourself. The only thing is that the wind in the mountains is too strong. You may not sleep well at night.

It's hard not to be satisfied with this price. If you are not satisfied, you really have to give a strong review. It's very close to the Owakudani scenic spot, and it takes more than ten minutes to drive. The hotel is not big. If you really like it, you must book it early. It is more suitable for families. I recommend a room with a private bath. You don't have to share. You can get it directly in the room. It is the most convenient. Generally, there are only a few such private baths. They are very tight. If you act early, the price can be better. If you book his place, you must book breakfast and dinner together. At night, soak in the hot springs and eat a two-hour kaiseki meal. After eating, go back to the room. If you order dinner, you must arrive before six o'clock. His place is the last meal at half past six. If you don't have it, you can't have it. After all, it takes two hours to eat. It's comfortable. The breakfast is a set meal, but it is super rich. There are Japanese and Western options. Bring your children to choose Western for your children. I recommend Japanese. Since you are here, you must try this richer one. The private bath room you stay in can accommodate up to four people. It is more suitable for families and partners! All drinks in the room are free🆓Make it as you like
