A magical stay at Hakone with Hotel Odakyu no Yama with its old world charm preserved through time and efforts of the st
Pros:

A quaint hotel that provides a country side charm with close proximity to Lake Ashi, accessible by buses to all the attraction sites in Hakone, it provides a place to rest and relaxation with its good size room and onsen; amazing food prepared by both Japanese and French kitchen and amazing service by all the staff.

Cons:

If you don’t have a hired car, you will have to rely on the public transport to get to the town centre.

Must return in good weather. The lake was still beautiful in cloudy conditions.
Pros:

The staff were excellent. Service impeccable. The gardens were impressive and the view of the lake beautiful. The shuttle bus running every 20 minutes is a real plus. And several buses stop at the hotel that go to local towns and sights. And a bus goes to Shinjuku at 12 midday with no changes. Very convenient. You could choose either western or Japanese breakfast. Both were good. Not buffet style . Also in the lounge in the afternoon, free coffe and tea, soft drinks and nibbles.

Cons:

The weather! A typhoon passed by and the weather was not good. It cleared for a bit and I was able to see Fuji san from the terrace in front of the lounge area.

Great experience and one we will remember.
Pros:

The setting was exceptional. The view of Mount Fuji, the gardens and lake were spectacular! The onsen was incredibly relaxing and the outdoor onsen had a garden like atmosphere. Having the Yukatavto wear to and from the onsen made the experience feel authentic.

Cons:

The rooms are spacious with awesome views but very dated. The menu was disappointing and repetitive. It was a difficult stay for our party of four due to the language barrier as there was no staff member that was even marginally proficient in English. Even with these criticisms, we loved the property and our stay at Hotel de Yama and are so happy to have had this very authentic Japanese experience without being in a Ryokan. The staff was friendly and professional. We would stay there again and recommend.
