Seaview Hotels in Hakone

"The Showa-era architecture made me feel like I traveled back in time. The garden is quite large, but it was a bit cold in March, so there wasn't much greenery to see. However, the crisp air still allowed me to imagine the beauty of spring flowers and autumn moons. I booked the half-board plan, and the meals were decent but not spectacular. What I found most surprising was that such a traditional Japanese meal was served with disposable chopsticks. I'd suggest the establishment pay attention to these small details, as the other services were excellent."

"Definitely worth the price for an onsen hotel. The ocean view and tatami style bedroom are the highlight for my stay here! There is free bus shuttle service scheduled by the hotel, as a solo traveller who doesn’t drive, this definitely is a plus point! Will book my stay at here next time when I visit Atami :)"

"It was the New Year's rate, but the room was spacious and comfortable. I was hesitant to get two meals included, but I decided on it! It was so comfortable that I barely left the room and spent the whole time relaxing. The foreign staff were also very nice, and the staff overall were very polite and helpful. I'd love to go again."

"I first stayed at this hotel seven years ago and absolutely loved the lush green golf course and the peaceful comfort of the open-air rotenburo. I chose to stay here again this time, despite being well aware of the inconvenient transportation. I decided to make a compromise; I took a taxi for check-in and arranged a private car for check-out, so I didn't have to rely on the hotel's somewhat limited transportation options, especially since their shuttle only goes to a particular bus stop. Upon checking in, I was delighted to find that the overall facilities hadn't been scaled back. The courtyard was also filled with numerous lilies, their subtle fragrance perfuming the air. Our butler, Yamaki, spoke good English and was very pleasant. Although she was a newcomer with only a year of experience, she made us feel incredibly welcome and at ease. This time, in addition to the yukata provided in the room, I also rented a beautiful patterned one, which was very similar to the one I wore at Sensoji Temple – that made me really happy! Last time, we had both breakfast and dinner at the hotel, but my child wasn't particularly fond of the dinner, so this time we only opted for breakfast. The breakfast spread was remarkably similar to what it was seven years ago, and it still maintained that wonderful sense of occasion."

"I chose to stay in this low-key hotel on the mountain in Atami City. Although I had to take a taxi to get in and out, I actually didn’t want to leave the hotel and my room after checking in. The scenery outside is very beautiful, there is a private onsen in the room, and the hotel services and facilities are impeccable. You can go to the lounge to have a drink, eat snacks and watch the sunset before dinner! The hotel’s dinner serves Japanese food presented to guests in a French style. The menu can be fine-tuned according to each guest’s taste requirements and will be signed off by the responsible waiter for confirmation! With such serious service, you will definitely be satisfied with breakfast and dinner! Three days and two nights accommodation, great value for money service and enjoyment!"

"I booked this hotel to watch the fireworks on the evening of the 26th. The price was double, and there were no ocean-view rooms left, only mountain-view rooms in the new building, which included breakfast and dinner for 4000 yen. It was still very expensive. Check-in was on the second floor of the old building. The staff was very inefficient, and their English was extremely poor, making communication very difficult. The room was relatively clean, and there was only enough space to open one large suitcase. We got a complimentary visit to the Fuua Onsen (which is open to the public, last entry at 9 PM). The hotel's own onsen is in the Tower Building. Towels and bath towels were provided, and the open-air, ocean-facing onsen was particularly impressive. Both breakfast and dinner were buffet style. Dinner was decent, but there wasn't much to eat for breakfast. The hotel offers a free shuttle service to Atami Station every 40 minutes."
