do recommend for taking strolls

Comfortable room, excellent dining, featuring a delicious traditional breakfast and delightful dinner, and the location is very convenient as it is a short walk to the nearby Gora Park. Free Wi-Fi is available in public areas.

The staff were very accommodating regarding dietary needs.

Our room had a strong smell of smoke when we arrived. Although the manager attempted to remedy this, the odor returned quickly. I found the cleanliness of the overall hotel to be lacking with some noticeable residue in the bathroom areas.

Amazing views and kaiseki!

Dining at Lalaca is an experience! The kaiseki-style meals were massive and absolutely delightful, perfect for culinary explorers. Plus, the private onsen was a dream for relaxation after all that delicious food! The staff were exceptional, especially when accommodating my son's dietary needs.

The only hiccup? The uphill walk from Gora station can be a real leg-burner if you’re dragging heavy bags.

Take advantage of the guided onsen etiquette provided by staff to enhance your experience. They are very accommodating and can help ease initial apprehension.

We had a huge room with tatami mats and a private shower, which was super comfy. The beds were really cozy and the view of the snow-covered mountains was breathtaking. We also loved that they provided yukatas for us to wear around. The space felt authentic and was really well-equipped for our stay. Only thing was, the walk from the station is a bit steep, but it was totally worth it for the experience!

The walk from Gora station is a bit steep.

The food was out of this world, and I loved soaking in the private onsen after a long day out exploring. It was so relaxing to unwind at the open-air bath and have the chance to lounge in the garden area. Just a heads up, the toilet can get a bit chilly during the night, but it didn’t take away from our lovely stay! 😊

It was just a commendable fit for a momentary visit in Hakone with best value for money ratio. The staff helped us arrange to have our luggage sent ahead to the train station, making our day exploring so much easier. Try to enjoy the onsen when it's less crowded for a more relaxing experience.

The warm and accommodating staff made our trip unforgettable. Enjoying the private onsen at night was a highlight, along with the beautifully prepared traditional meals. Highly recommend staying here!

The room was spacious and clean, perfect for my family, including our special needs son's support dog. Eating in-room was a highlight, especially enjoying dinner while chatting with my kids. The private onsen was a relaxing treat after exploring Gora Park nearby.

My wife says that while everything was great, a kids' play area would improve our stay.

Authentic Ryokan Experience with Delicious Dining!

Our stay became unforgettable thanks to the polite staff and the unique tatami room. We savored an extensive kaiseki meal, perfectly explained by our server. Notably, the onsens provided tranquility after exploring. Pro tip, print the hotel’s Japanese address for easier navigation from the cable car!
