PERFECT GETAWAY
Reviewed By meinschatz225We stayed at this hotel for my boss's b-day celebration, and this hotel met all my expectations. From the sanitation, cleanliness of the room, the tasty food they serve, the accommodating staff members, the huge onsen (public bath) with mist sauna, not to mention their private onsen, has all the amenities you will need, and most of all, the impeccable design of the hotel itself has impressed me a lot! This is definitely the hotel I will come back to and I will never get tired of staying in, especially in the summertime & winter season.

Excellent location, nice facility, good food and friendly service
Reviewed By Tour759193Excellent location 3 min walk from the Hakone Rail Station. Plenty of parking spaces if you drive. Stayed in a spacious semi-Japanese room with a lovely cypress bath running natural hot-spring water on the balcony. Comfy bed, clean room with good facilities. Both public and private onsens available in a bush natural environment. Yummy traditional Japanese breakfast and full course dinner plus free drinks or beer. Nice view in the breakfast room with a water wheel in misty landscape (from the hot spring water underground). Friendly attentive service, children friendly. V good value for the price.

Great Ryokan experience, fresh food paradise
Reviewed By HarryTours_OfficialThe Mount View Hakone is a ryokan that may not be very new and has slightly come of age, but manges to convince on other fields of expertise. We loved the privately bookable onsen and were particularly fond of the dinner experience that was lavish, fresh and memorable - a true highlight of every night. It was a relaxing stop: long walks, good food, no TV or other entertainment, making it the perfect getaway spot close to busy Tokyo.

Featuring open-air hot spring bath and relaxation spa, Kinnotake Tonosawa is a beautiful ryokan in Hakone surrounded by water and bamboo trees.

Kinnotake Tonosawa has free Wi-Fi, private parking and on-site bar with view. We also have business rooms at the basement floor. All rooms include a private bathroom equipped with bath tub with bath robes and slippers. Some rooms have a seating area with views of either mountains or garden. From our accommodation, Hakone Open-Air Museum is 3.6 km away and Hakone Gora Park is 4.3 km away.
When it comes to the ryokan experience there is a choice
Reviewed By BridgingCulturesOver the last 20 years we have stayed in about 10 different ryokan in Japan and what we’ve now realized is the experience offered is variable. As often the opportunity for an individual is rare, and sometimes a once in a lifetime experience, study carefully which ryokan you choose. Price does not protect you from an inferior experience! Now there are newly built ryokan which offer a service not so different from a ‘hotel’ in the city or urban area: a modern and spare Scandinavian or Southeast Asian atmosphere; no exchange at the entrance of your shoes for slippers or 下駄 (geta); a table and chairs style communal dining room for all your meals; a platform bed; once a day housekeeping service; and no garden to admire or place to walk and explore while in your yukata. Kinnotake Tonosawa offers the chance to enjoy a good meal and comfortable bed. The best feature is having a private open air bath of your own.

Overpriced and out-dated
Reviewed By Le0215I reserved a "Japanese room with Garden View" via booking.com for what I believed to be 3 people. When I arrived at reception, I was told I had only reserved for 2 and the additional person would be 15,000 yen + tax (about £120 in total). Be VERY careful what you book as we felt hard done by. The photos of this Ryokan give a false illusion as to what you are getting. We'd pictured rural Japanese mountain luxury with multiple indoor and outdoor geo-thermal onsen spas. Instead, the Ryokan is more like a 1960's travel lodge, just a stones throw from the rather ugly main high-street of Hakone-Yamote. It has one small outdoor and one slightly larger indoor pool (for men), but I couldn't comment on the female set up. The room was equally basic. At £350 per night for 3 people this does not represent value for money and I would not recommend. Only positive to mention is the staff, as ever in Japan, who were friendly, respectful and kind.

Quiet place, healthy cuisine, awesome hot spring
Reviewed By m0m0rinAbout 10 minutes walk from Kowakidani station, but it is quite steep. I recommend asking the hotel for pickup (by Mercedez!). Some rooms have their own private spring hot tub and it is awesome. No large public bath, but there are three small chartered baths, so you can enjoy it whenever you want even if you stayed in a room without a spring bath. Dinner and breakfast have plenty of vegetables and you can enjoy Bagna cauda and various vegetable sticks with white dip sources. Kaiseki (course meal with many small dishes) is very healthy. The room is clean and cozy, but a bit aged (but it does not blot on the good points at all). Nothing is around here and it is very quiet; it means that you have to buy snacks beforehand. I love this hotel! 御影風呂のお部屋に泊まりましたが、非常に満足しました。お値段が高くなっても、檜風呂や御影風呂の付いているお部屋をおすすめします。 3つ貸切風呂がありますが、「煤竹」が一番見晴らしがよいかも。 お食事もバーニャカウダなど、自然の野菜の風味を生かした懐石料理で、お刺身、お肉も繊細でヘルシー、そしてお腹いっぱいになりました。 駅から遠くはありませんが、険しい坂道なので、送迎をお願いするとよいです。 まわりには何もない静かなところなので、事前に買い物をしておくことをおすすめします。

Worst experience in Hakone
Reviewed By _Chic_987This is probably the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at and is unbelievable overpriced. This is would be fine if it was a $90USD budget hotel, but that is not how they price. Here is why: - The rooms smell TERRIBLE. A smell that reminded me of a New York City cab. Nothing seemed clean. - The beds are horrific. In any ryokan it is absolutely expected that you sleep on a mattress on the floor. These felt like they were 100 years old and the pillow provided was a small bean bag. I am still dealing with the resulting back pain. - The private Onsen had a beautiful setting but was not cleaned properly and full of hair. - No towels whatsoever. You have to request and then you get comically small ones of bad quality. - Restaurant food was sub par. Although the wait staff was very attentive, the food isn’t great. This is probably expected given it’s a small town and hotel food is always meh. - They have no sense of courtesy to their guests. Even though the shuttle driver was just sitting there idle, they would not give us a ride to the train station even 5 minutes before the start time. We missed our train as a result. No where else in Japan did we experience anything close to this. Overall a terrible experience. Don’t let this hotel sour your experience in Japan like it did for us. Worth it to splurge on a nicer hotel and get a special experience in this special town!

The Hakone Suishoen is a hot spring inn, which combines traditions and modernity, housing the former Mitsui Family's resort villa—a tangible cultural property with over 94 years of history—in the garden. All guestrooms are built as suite rooms, equipped with open-air hot spring bath, the renovated Tangible Cultural Property. They can choose either Kaiseki or Teppanyaki for dinner.
Will be included in our ryokan rotation moving forward
Reviewed By KI-NRTWe decided to tack on a stay in Hakone on our way to Izu (for 2 nights), and since it was a last minute booking we were unable to secure a room at more renowned properties such as Hakone Ginyu, Gora Kadan or Gora Hanaougi. Our expectation was that Suishoen would be a good stay but the overall experience would be a notch below some of the best ryokans we've tried. We were definitely proven wrong! From the service, architecture, rooms and (especially) the food, everything was top notch and was right up there with our two Izu choices (Asaba and Arcana.) We generally try to get the best room possible, and in Suishoen's case, it was the Luxury Suite "Negau," which is a spacious 123m² in size and had all of the trimmings that one would expect from a top-category room. Negau's interior could best be described as "Wa-modern" (Japanese modern) - very contemporary, but not in a way that is cold. Rather, it gives a slight country vibe while still being up-to-date, aesthetically. While the use of dark wood isn't to our personal liking (we like it more bright and airy), Negau was comfortable and tastefully furnished, and was in tip-top shape. It had a spacious living room, a dining table, a Japanese "tea room" (a tatami sitting area), a separate bedroom and, of course, a very nice rotenburo (Open-air onsen hot springs bath.) While the grounds and garden are not as expansive or awe-inspiring as some other ryokans we've stayed at, the main restaurant building is impressive and historic. Built during the Taisho Era (early 20th Century), it was formerly the Summer residence of the Mitsui family, and has been carefully restored to its original grandeur. It really gives Suishoen a great sense of place, and gives an indication of the incredible meals that we were to enjoy that evening. The food was stupendous - it's really up there with the very best. Everything was unique, creative and varied. Even something as simple as a grilled chicken (which was a substitute for the amazing beef, which Mrs. KI-NRT cannot eat) was cooked and flavored to perfection. Dessert was also a delight - it consisted of a soup made of chilled sweet white bean paste which was accompanied by Kiwi Ice Cream, Strawberries from Amaou, Kiyomi Mikan (a type of Japanese citrus fruit) and Warabi Mochi, a Jelly-like confection made from bracken starch and covered or dipped in kinako (sweet toasted soybean flour.) It was a very pretty serving, and each item contained in the dish meshed beautifully with one another. We love Japanese breakfasts, even though it's generally more of an afterthought at ryokans relative to the dinners that are offered. In this aspect Suishoen definitely did not mail it in. It was far more creative and varied than the standard "Wachoshoku" that contains a grilled fish, miso soup, pickled vegetables, some tofu and white rice. The grilled vegetables, the savory flan, the various condiments and even the fish itself was as impressive as what was offered at dinner. Kudos to the chef and kitchen staff for providing a tasty culinary experience, end-to-end. The staff were a delight - they were warm, prompt in fulfilling requests and overall very eager to please. You can tell that Suishoen is gunning for top-dog status and they won't rest on their laurels until they get there. In spite of the quality of competition in Hakone, we will definitely be making plans to return at some point in the near future.

Relaxing spot
Reviewed By Xcski441Stayed here two nights while enjoying the Hakone region. Staff was helpful although limited in ability to converse in English. The Onsen provided great relaxation after a day of travel and after a day of sightseeing. The meals were excellent and bountiful. Although I did not always know precisely what I was being served I always enjoyed it and also enjoyed the experience of preparing it myself at my table. Although the Ryokan was somewhat remote the transportation system in Hakone, busses and trains is excellent

Establishment is very nice with high quality onsens, beautiful restaurants and clean rooms. We read quite a many of previous reviews, and a lot has improved in the past months but of course there is still room to improve. Few major updates: - WiFi works everywhere - Paint in the rooms is OK, it suppose to look like that - Staff is super friendly and speaks as good English as you can expect - Food is good quality - Lounge has free coffee all the time and it's very good! Regarding the talks about prices, well, concidering the average prices around Hakone, Retreat Fore is on the average pricing.
