    “The staff are so very polite and helpful. They always put on a smile=) The lobby area is small but the view is really awesome! The room is with 2 stories, everything is neat and tidy, except a part of the wall was quite stained, we assumed it was from the coffee machine which was placed next to it. The signature part was the private onset bath (on the 2nd story), it was truly awesome, the tank was clean and it is very cosy! We enjoyed the facilities in the room, we wish to have spent on more night, except the toilet is separated from the shower place, which is downstairs. We were arranged to have breakfast on the 2nd floor in a compartment at the restaurant. It was really chill and full of tranquillity. We enjoyed the breakfast service so much! Highly recommend if you want to stay away from the common-large-brand-hotel, it's a star and quiet profile hotel ”

    “立地、サービス、食事、温泉とどれも満足できる内容です。 施設は離れとなっており、階段が多く、足の不自由な方にはお勧めしません。 食事は同ランクのホテルの中でも良い方であり、日本酒の種類も豊富で十分に堪能できました。 温泉は弱アルカリ性単純温泉で、肌がスベスベで、これぞアルカリ性の温泉!という感じ最高です。 硫黄温泉が大好きな私でも小涌谷温泉気に入りました。(箱根で一番は芦之湯温泉) ”

    “We spent two very relaxing nights at the Hakone Suishoen and made great use of the private onsen in the room. We had kaiseki dinner for both nights because one of our kids was younger than 10 and was not allowed the Teppanyaki dinner. Staff: Overall, the staff welcomed us very warmly and also put in their effort to make our stay very enjoyable. Most of the staff could speak English as well, so it's not a problem if you don't speak Japanese. Food: What can I say, both the Japanese breakfast and Kaiseki dinner were top notch and were very satisfying. One minor thing I would comment on is that the food tends to get similar if you stay more than one night and choose the same type of meal. They tried to make it slightly different, though. Onsen: The private onsen in the room was very wide and could fit my family of four comfortably. I also went to the public onsen and used the facilities there (the sauna was very hot, and good!). Thank you, Hakone Suishoen, for making our first ryokan experience a very wonderful one. We will definitely be coming back. ”

    “The food was impeccable and delicious. A highlight of our trip to Japan (including Tokyo and Kyoto). Both breakfast and dinner were served in the kaiseki style and it was incredible. The "room" was more like a mini-house a with a big living area downstairs and a big bedroom and a private onsen upstairs. The service at this hotel was very much 5 stars! Everyone was so accommodating and lovely.”

    “Hakone Suishoen's facilities and staff were excellent. The hotel was a blend of the old a new: the living quarters were new-ish, while the dining facility is a traditional Japanese building. We also loved the onsen on the balcony, which was enjoyed by the whole family. The beds were quite comfortable, and our 2-story unit could be set up with tatami beds for our two boys, which they loved. The food and the service were both top-notch. A very memorable stay for the entire family.”

  • My favorite hotel I’ve ever stayed in!

    “Wow what an incredible oasis away from all of the chaos of our trip to Japan. We were absolutely blown away with the property and the service of the staff. Honestly the photos don’t do it justice, so my only suggestion is to update the photos on the website! We were greeted so warmly during check in and brought to our room where we were explained every detail for our trip such as what to wear and about our meals. We were given very comfortable traditional Japanese robes to wear around the property. I had a facial at the spa by Sisley that was out of this world. Make sure to book ahead of time. We felt so at peace and relaxed the entire stay. The room was so spacious and comfortable and the onsen was incredible. Couldn’t recommend this hotel more!!”

    “You won’t regret booking a night or two at this lovely hotel with great food. One of the best Kaiseki meals we have had in Japan and breakfast was excellent too. We had a lovely stay with a waterfall outside our balcony and a private Onsen. Service was excellent throughout and ample provisions in the room with nice touches like two bottles of tea in the fridge and a portable TV for your private Onsen. We would just book this again just for the food it was that good but the room, lovely staff and pleasant surroundings are great too. Nice to have dinner with a great view of the garden and its trees. There is a nice waterfall - Chisuji Waterfall - just 10 mins away and a family mart within 2 minutes. We got a Hakone Free pass, took the limited express romance car from Shinjuku to Hakone Kumoto station and then a H bus (Hakonemachi) to Kowakien bus stop and from there we rolled our bags to the hotel. However the hotel does provide pick up and drop off services from Kowakudani station. Our Maisonette had two sinks and an additional WC on the ground floor is great if you are travelling with family.”
