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.

Would highly recommend for your stay in the hakone area.
Pros:

Ground of the hotel are stunning. Azaleas and Rhododendrons were in bloom making for a dramatic view against the lake and mount fuji backdrop. Onsen was large, well equipped, clean. Staff was spectacular. Shuttle to Motohakone was were frequent and comfortable.

Cons:

Restaurant options were limited for those with dietary preferences or restrictions and breakfast ended around 9:30.

Pros:

金婚記念に立ち寄らせていただきました。結婚して始めていった旅も芦ノ湖でした。それもあり選んだホテルでした。ツツジを愛でながら歩いて富士山が見えたとき今日は良い日で終わりそうと感じた一瞬でした。お食事の時、最後のデザートの時スタッフの方が記念写真をとって下さり、帰りの時それを頂くことができ嬉しかったです。
お食事も、常に飲み物をタイミング良く出してくださり美味しく頂くことができました。
スタッフ一人一人が気遣いのある対応で心地良かったです。

Cons:

良くなかった…と言うわけではないのですが、私が小さいため浴衣を『小』も用意していただけると良かったかな。もしくは、受付時浴衣のサイズを確認して頂けたら良かったかな⁉️

Une adresse de charme, au sein d'un jardin splendide, un onsen inoubliable, un dîner exquis !
Pros:

Un bel établissement avec un jardin absolument magnifique (nous étions en pleine floraison des rhododendrons). Nous sommes restés 2 nuits et avons pu goûter à la fois au dîner japonais et au dîner français : l'un et l'autre sont excellents, dignes d'un restaurant étoilé. Le petit-déjeuner occidental était copieux et bon. Par ailleurs, nous avons adoré l'onsen, avec son bassin extérieur donnant sur la forêt. Un moment de détente inoubliable !

Cons:

La rénovation de l'hôtel date a priori des années 2010, cela commence à se ressentir (moquette de la chambre et des couloirs vieillissante). Par ailleurs, nous avons constaté un petit manque de propreté à l'arrière de l'abattant du WC (cheveux et poussière). Pour un établissement de ce prix, cela pourrait être amélioré.

パーフェクト
Pros:

行き届いたサービス。奇を衒った部分はなく、心のこもったサービスを提供してくれる。食事はとても美味しく、心地よい。値段はリーズナブルで、効率的な経営ができていることに感服する

Cons:

特にない。強いて言えば、ラウンジの営業時間を10時ぐらいまで延ばしてほしいが、ニーズがないのかもしれない

Hermosa estancia con vista increible del Fuji
Pros:

Hermosa vista desde el jardín del Monte Fuji, jardines con azaleas y Sakura en flor en el momento de floracion. La cena francesa es muy recomendable. El onsen y la habitaciones son muy hermosas y comodas.

Cons:

No hay nada que no me haya gustado, lo unico que aclararia que el hotel se encuentra a 30 minutos caminando de Moto hakone o debe tomarse el servicio de bus del hotel para ir hacia la zona más urbana.
