          “Great value for money.”

          I wanted to experience a ryokan and kaiseki, and I found a great deal on Agoda, so I made a reservation. In fact, breakfast and dinner were included, but the price was so cheap that I was skeptical. Although it was an old ryokan, it was well maintained, and it seemed to have been remodeled, making it tidy. The room was spacious, and even though we used futons instead of beds, it was comfortable and did not hurt my back. We dined separately, but we were able to use the dining space privately, and the meals were really delicious. They provided a separate kids' menu for my elementary school child, and he ate well. Reserving a private onsen wasn't difficult, and it was great. The water was extremely hot~ Just be cautious that additional payments for services must be made in cash. It was the best cost-performance ratio. I am very satisfied.

          “A healing stay that feels like being treated with care.”

          I had a proper healing experience thanks to the delicious and high-quality dinner and breakfast along with the wonderful hot spring. The friendly service from the staff added to the experience, making it a satisfying stay that was worth the cost. I think it's the best choice around Gora Station.

          “A highly cost-effective hot spring hotel with one night's stay and two meals near Qiangluo Station.”

          This hotel with an excellent cost-performance ratio has a small scale, with only six rooms, but the service and accommodation experience are superb. In terms of accommodation, the rooms are spacious, featuring traditional Japanese-style tatami rooms in a suite configuration, and they are cleaned very well. During dinner and breakfast, the staff will tidy up the rooms and prepare the bedding. Regarding meals, both breakfast and dinner consist of Japanese kaiseki cuisine, which is very lavish and left me full. The menu changes based on the ingredients purchased each day. As for the hot springs, there are no private baths in each room, but there is a private bath (semi-outdoor) available for reservation, allowing for individual use for 40 minutes per room (no reservation needed after 10 PM). Additionally, there is a communal bath that is separated by gender, and since the hotel only accommodates six groups of guests daily, the communal bath is not crowded at all. In terms of transportation, it is very convenient, as it is close to Gora Station, making it easy to visit various attractions in Hakone. The most important point is that for this price in Gora, what more could you ask for? If you want to experience a stay with meals but don’t want to spend five or six thousand yen at a trendy hotel, this "small yet beautiful" hotel is a great choice.

          “Outstanding Dining and Kind Hospitality”

          I had a very pleasant and memorable stay at this ryokan. Both the kaiseki dinner and breakfast were absolutely delicious, and the staff member who served our meals was incredibly kind and attentive, which made the experience even more special. We also enjoyed using the private onsen, which was a wonderful option for our family to relax together. The water temperature was slightly on the mild side, but still comfortable. The facilities do have a more traditional and aged charm, and at times there was a slight metallic scent from the sink water in our room. However, this did not take away from our overall experience. The location was excellent, the hospitality was warm, and the meals were truly outstanding. Overall, it was a lovely stay that we would happily recommend.

          “Excellent”

          I was satisfied with the ambiance and service at the ryokan, the private hot spring, and the delicious dinner and breakfast. However, the smell of tatami was a bit strong, so I had to keep ventilating, and the noise from the mountain train and tourists was somewhat bothersome.
