“This ryokan offers a compelling mix of traditional Japanese inn and budget-friendly accommodation. I appreciate the option to book a private, open-air onsen overlooking the mountains. The location is ideal for exploring Hakone, being a short distance from both Hakone Gora Park and the ropeway, but the real draw is the warm, attentive staff who go above and beyond.”
