Hotels with Kitchens in Hakone

"First, a heads-up to anyone visiting this hotel: it's located in the Hakone mountains. If you're not driving, please, please be very careful not to get off the train in the wrong direction! We came down from Owakudani by train and got off at Naka-Gora. Both train doors opened when it arrived, and we exited through the left door. Little did we know, we were in for a world of trouble – I won't go into the dramatic details. After quite an adventure, we finally reached the hotel only to find out that if we had exited from the right side, it would have been just a few minutes' walk away. So, a word of caution: if you're coming down by train from the Owakudani direction, always exit on the right side! This was the most expensive hotel we booked during our trip to Japan. There were almost no shops nearby. We had pre-ordered dinner, which was a bit like sukiyaki. The hotel prepared all the washed ingredients and utensils for us. After dinner, we cleaned everything and placed it in a large basket, which we left outside our room door the next morning. Dinner was pretty good! However, to buy breakfast for the next day, we spent over half an hour walking up and down hills just to find a convenience store. I regretted not having bought breakfast in Hakone beforehand. The hot springs are separate for men and women. It gets dark early in the evening, so we couldn't see the scenery outside the onsen. The next morning, we saw the green landscape outside the window. The Japanese-style tatami room could accommodate six people and even had a kitchen. It was very spacious for the three of us. The hallway of our room offered beautiful mountain views, perfect for watching the sunrise. The view from inside the room was also very nice. The hotel is close to Gora Park, about a ten-minute walk, and not far from the Hakone Museum of Art."

"The hotel was located a bit further out from the main attractions. However, with that its also at a quieter area and nice break away from the touristy area. Because of the location, it is also convenient to get to the Gotemba outlet mall. There’s a mountain view outside the balcony. A convenience store and bus stop just right outside the hotel. We felt the breakfast served was underwhelming, and the same food was served on the 2 days we were there. The hotel was spacious and really clean, interior design was beautiful. The hotspring was really nice as well. The staff recommended the Izakaya restaurant called Monta, just few minutes walk from the hotel. The food was really good and open till 12am!"

"This hotel is truly worth the stay. The room is very spacious and the price is very reasonable. What impressed us the most is that all the furniture and facilities are high quality and still very new, which made our stay extremely comfortable. We traveled with our 1-year-old baby, and the hotel was very thoughtful to prepare some baby amenities for us. That really touched us and made the stay even more pleasant. This is definitely one of the most comfortable and worthwhile hotels our family has stayed in during our trip to Japan. Every room also comes with a private onsen, which made the experience even more relaxing. There is a convenience store just 2 minutes away by car, and it only takes about 20 minutes to drive to Lake Ashi, so the location is very convenient. Overall we are extremely satisfied with our stay. We would definitely come back again next time and stay for even more days."

"A truly enjoyable hotel experience with friends! The family room, located one floor up the stairs, was quieter, with a spacious tatami area and a view of the nearby art museum. The hotel staff spoke English better than most hotels in Tokyo, and we enjoyed a casual chat every time we met. The basement common area was very comfortable, with chess and poker boards available for borrowing. There was also a shared kitchen and laundry room. Unfortunately, strong winds and heavy rain hit both days of our stay, and the Hakone Tozan train was out of service, so we had to go to the hot springs resort. Be aware that nearby restaurants only serve lunch, with most closing in the afternoon. In such inclement weather, we had to rely on convenience stores for food."

"I was very satisfied with my stay at this hotel. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything I needed. The staff were friendly and provided quick, excellent service. The location was very convenient, with everything nearby. The breakfast was delicious and offered a good variety of options. I would definitely choose to stay here again. If you want, I can make it shorter, more formal, or more casual 👍"

"We loved this experience! After travelling from Tokyo that morning and all around Hakone, we were wrecked by the time we got to the accommodation. The hosts offer free collection from the bottom of the cable car. We text them saying we would be arriving in 10 minutes and they had someone waiting for us. The check in was smooth and the hosts are very accommodating, have good English and will do anything they can to help you. We had a room with a Mt. Fuji view who was on show for a few hours. They then brought us in a shuttle to a nearby restaurant and the restaurant brought us back to the accommodation. The accom was very big for the two of us and we found the beds really comfy. We also got private onsen for 30 mins (available between 10-11pm) for only 2,000 yen. In the morning, they dropped us back (again free) to our bus stop. We loved this whole experience and calm back feeling relaxed and revived. Couldn’t recommend more!"

"A heaven for car lovers, and I'm lucky to be able to visit this place, and also enjoy the drive experience with a top-up. Location is slightly away from everything so you are stranded unless driving (you should be), and you're just minutes from Gotemba with so much choice for food and drinks compared to the hotels choices that were in my opinion limited and costly. Lastly, as the hotel was a part of the museum, it was a bummer that we had to pay to enter the museum despite the high cost of the hotel."

"The room was incredibly clean! The view from the room in the morning was also beautiful, creating wonderful memories. I was also very happy that I could cook in the room. 💯✨"

"This hotel is really great, and the view from the window is absolutely stunning – I had a super comfortable stay! It's perfect for unwinding after a day trip to Hakone, and then enjoying some drinks in the evening. The minibar is well-stocked. My only minor complaint is that early check-in isn't possible, and there's no luggage storage on-site. If you need to store your bags, you can use the paid lockers at the nearby station."
