素晴らしい経験。Wonderful experience.
Reviewed By Fearless805918Even though not a typical Japanese Onsen style accommodation, the modern facility and seasonal Japanese western style cuisine welcome to make your body and soul warm with excellent staffs and a hot spring bath. One of my favorite hotels is this in Hakone. 久しぶりの箱根で、最も好きなホテルのうちの一つに滞在。日本風の旅館ではないものの、モダンな作りの建物、素敵な旬の日本洋風の食事、素晴らしいサービスのスタッフと温泉が、あなたの心も身体も温めてくれます。

True relaxation that has been improved through the changing times. A resort hotel with a healing experience and a view of Lake Ashi. As a classic and authentic resort hotel in Hakone, we have improved our hospitality for a long time at this beautiful natural scene.
Fantastic location
Reviewed By jenniferbG4346QZThe location of this hotel is fantastic. It is just a few minutes walk to the Hakone shrine and tori gate on the water and about 15 minutes walk to the town by the water. From the town you can catch the pirate ship or ferry to the base of the cable car and head up the mountain to other attractions. The hotel grounds are lovely and full of pathways lined with Rhododendrum. The rooms are a great size and all have a view of the lake. I stayed on the third floor and in my opinion rooms on the third and fourth floors have a better view but the second floor rooms have a balcony and the first floor rooms have patios. The hotel provides yukatas and all toiletries you might need. The hotel onsen is small but nice and also has an outdoor bath. The hotel spa is very relaxing with a variety of services. I did not have dinner at the property but breakfast was very good. Every staff member I encountered was extremely professional, courteous and friendly. My only complaint is the mattress was very firm and I prefer some thing softer but that is a personal preference.

Always the place to stay in Hakone
Reviewed By edt0Each time we come to Hakone we stay at this hotel. Although it can be a little isolated, it is the perfect place for a walk early in the morning and a great view of Mount Fuji on a clear day (see picture). The rooms are big by Japan standard and comfortable. We booked the dinner inclusive package and dinner was great. But it can be a little monotonous if you stay longer than 2 nights as you will probably be bored with the same spread. They have the shuttle service to/from Odawara station. So that makes it convenient for travellers. Be warned. They are very strict with the number of people staying in the room, as with most Japanes hotels.

Exceptional service in restaurant
Reviewed By 747nataleeaIt was a rainy day in Hakone, the last day of my trip. I did not like the idea of being outside juggling my luggage and umbrella so I found a lovely refuge at the Fujiya Hotel. Being a Saturday the restaurants had a long wait for the table, so I went to the tea lounge. The waiter was kind enough to wipe my wet luggage after showing me to my seat. Although I was not a staying guest I felt they gave excellent service. Next time I would like to stay. The rooms look beautiful, and the surroundings are steeped in history. Access is convenient from Hakoneyumoto station. About 15 minutes bus ride, and the stop is right in front of the hotel.

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.

A great place to rest, recharge, and relax
Reviewed By ginomempinI stayed at a Superior Room with Open-air Bath. The room was spacious and immaculately clean. The description said it had 2 single beds, but each bed could fit 2 and the entire room could probably easily fit 4 people. It even had a sort of living room between the bed and the balcony, where people could hang out and roll around, or use it as a space to open up all their luggage. The chairs weren't that comfortable though. The floor-to-ceiling window and the balcony view was *refreshing* to look at as you wake up in the morning or as you sit on the balcony and drink your complimentary coffee/tea. (Make sure to request a high enough room for a relaxing mountain view). The toilet and the shower were separate. The shower was the standard Japanese small size, but that really isn't an issue if you will be using the public onsen anyway. The private bathtub is nice for people who want to experience the onsen water but don't want to get naked in the public onsen. Though, when you are in the bathtub, there isn't much of a view from where you are (it's blocked by the railing), and, to be honest, it's not worth the money staying here and not going into the public onsen. It's nice though for couples who would want to dip in a bath together (could comfortably fit 2 Asian-sized couples). I would say the highlight of the place are the 2 outdoor/open-air public onsen. The 6F one has a nice infinity pool view, where you can relax and stare at the mountains in the distance (it's especially nice during the autumn season), and the 5F one offers a calming waterfall sound in the background. I recommend checking the sunrise times, then waking up early and being at the 6F onsen just in time for the sunrise (make sure it is open to your gender!). If you don't want to be naked outdoors though, both public onsen still have the regular indoor pools with windows also looking out into the trees (also, the water is hotter indoors). But I think it's wasted money if you come here and *not* experience the outdoor baths. My stay included a breakfast at the hotel's own restaurant on the 5th floor. It was the traditional Japanese breakfast (the main dish was fish and rice, and a lot of other small vegetable dishes, salad, and desserts). It was all pretty to look at and you could tell the amount of effort that went into the presentation. If you are not fond of the traditional Japanese breakfast, you might want to inquire at the hotel for other options (there were no other options for me though as it was a special package that already included the breakfast). After you had your breakfast, go to the 5th floor to have some freshly brewed coffee (from a machine) and hang out at the patio surrounding the 5F reception. The view of the trees is relaxing as you consider and plan the activities for the rest of your day. Aside from the 2 public onsen, the garden, and the bar/lounge, there's not much to do here or in the surrounding area. It is a bit far off from the rest of the places-to-see in Hakone. They do offer a free shuttle to take you to/from Gora/強羅駅, but if you are the type that likes to walk around and explore the area, then it's not as convenient. I suggest coming here and checking-in, only after already doing a long day of exploring Hakone. Rest for the night, take 2-3 baths, have a massage at the spa, have drinks in your room or at the bar, recharge, relax, then checking-out the next day to resume your adventures.

SERIOUSLY NO ICE MACHINE???
Reviewed By CALIFAN26My family of 4 just recently stayed at this hotel. i spent over $600 for a one day stay that included dinner, breakfast and an onsen bath on our balcony. The food was decent. Not amazing as advertised. The onsen on the balcony was nice with a good view. Since it is summer and very hot now in Japan we wanted some cold drinks. There is a small fridge in the room with an ice bucket and tongs sitting on top. We called the front desk to ask the location of the ice machine. There is no ice machine in the whole hotel! There is an ice bucket in each room but no ice machine. We were directed to buy ice from the hotel store. For $600 a day what a rip off that you need to buy your own ice. Seriously!!!

A very gorgeous hotel but...
Reviewed By ChaJSaintI was given a night at this hotel as a birthday present. Getting there was a tad too complicated but we managed. When we arrived there my impression of the place was excellent. Super clean and calming environment and we had to take our shoes off which was interesting :D The staff were very nice and after we waited a while we were given the keys to our room...which was AMAZING. BUT...there were a few things that tainted the almost perfect experience. There was no bar where to have a drink on arrival and at night. Secondly, the onsen water was SCORCHING! I couldn't manage to get past my feet and if I remember well, it was at 47deg. It was a huge let down because the onsen was supposed to be the highlight of the stay. The breakfast in the morning was excellent.
