Mooie onsen, maar s avonds helemaal dood
Pros:

De onsen was heerlijk en mooi en je wordt goed geholpen. Wel gender gescheiden.

Cons:

Wij moesten 40 minuten in het donker langs een autoweg lopen om wat eten te halen bij een supermarkt. Er komen geen taxis of ubers meer na 6 uur, er gaat geen bus en het hotel wilde ons geen fietsen lenen. Dat viel erg tegen.

Great Lake view. Spacious, tranquil, and clean accommodation. All staff was friendly and helpful.
Pros:

Location, atmosphere, cleanliness, friendly staff, food.

Cons:

I loved it, but restaurants and onsen require walk to visit, if you have difficulty in mobility, you may want to consider wheelchairs .

Costo eccessivo
Pros:

Hotel è in riva al lago

Cons:

Sì è costretti a mangiare in hotel ( ad Hakone chiude tutto praticamente alle 17,00). Il costo per mangiare in hotel è eccessivo sia per la cena che per la colazione.

Good stay, average hotel
Pros:

The lake facing rooms and hotel grounds were great, the staff is super friendly and courteous, and the hotel is tranquil and quiet which was great for relaxation. Onsen was good. The hourly shuttle made it comfortable to get to the town, and they have a free bus service to Odawara station for those using the Shinkansen.

Cons:

The property has odd restaurant timings and a very limited vegetarian menu/options. It’s difficult to find dinner after 8:45 pm or lunch after 2:30 pm. There are no restaurant options immediately outside either. The bar menu is super small. Compared to other “4-star” options in Hakone, this hotel was just average.

Un incantevole relax
Pros:

Struttura enorme con camere un po' datate ma super eleganti. Balcone vista lago e monte Fuji!!
3 Ristoranti, quello che abbiamo provato noi continentale eccezionale sia a cena che a colazione. Onsen molto bello, peccato che la vista sul lago sia oscurata dalla siepe. Sala ping pong. Negozi e attrazioni appena fuori.

Cons:

Nulla

Beautiful lakeside location, good for ferry and ropeways. Expensive restaurants.
Pros:

The hotel is beautifully located on the shore of Lake Ashi and within walking distance of a Hakone-en lake ferry pier and the Hakone Komagatake ropeways. Very peaceful after our frenetic days in Kyoto, Osaka and Tokyo with immaculate gardens and very nice Onsen. A very nice hotel shop selling snacks, drinks and souvenirs. Beautiful views of surrounding nature although sadly it was cloudy the whole two days we were there, so we didn't see Mount Fuji (not their fault - a quite common during the rainy season). The ride on the ferry (not the Pirate Ship) was convenient and close by. We also enjoyed the main Hakone ropeway over the Sulphur pools

Cons:

it's a 50 minute shuttle bus ride from the Hakone train station which you need to book in advance. This adds to the waiting around and time to get there. The two specialist restaurants were very expensive and there are no local restaurants outside the grounds to go to. The buffet for dinner and breakfast is much better but still expensive. The bar was very quiet and expensive but drinks from the in hotel store were good value.

Lugar de Paz e sossego! Maravilhoso
Pros:

Amamos a hospitalidade, a comida estava maravilhosa, atendia a todos os gostos, desde um menu japonês completo, até saladas, vários tipos de pães, frutas e opções com ovos.

O Onsen é uma experiência a parte, nunca tinha experimemtado, funcionária me explicou com bastante respeito e foi maravilhoso! Super recomendo o Hotel.

A localização é privilegiada, de frente para o Lago Ashi, do lado do ponto de ônibus que super usamos, além do fácil acesso com Táxi também.
