Hotels in Miyanoshita

"We loved the onsen experience. We had never done it before and they had a “lesson” for onsen etiquette which was helpful. It was very clean and relaxing. It was nice to have a free ice cream every day after bathing at the onsen, and fun to walk around the property in our hotel robes. The only issue we had was 2 little kids running around and talking loudly in the onsen bath area which was disruptive, but not the hotel’s fault. "

"The property and staff were amazing. And it lived up to the beautiful pictures online and then some. An added bonus, it was an easy walk from the boat dock/ropeway."

"Really beautiful hotel. Very professional staff."

"I loved this hotel, wish I could stay longer. Lovely common areas to relax both indoors and outdoors, free drinks and snacks, alcoholic at night, as well as a lovely array of desserts in the evening. Everyone walking around in their yukatas provided by the hotel gives a very relaxing vibe. I enjoyed both the communal (had it to myself) and private onsens. It was nice that the private pnsen had a window to see nature outside. The outdoor terrace with footbath was also lovely, with comfortable seating. My room was simple, quiet, and clean (futons) in West building. Great location 5 minutes walk from Gora station. "

"First of all, the location is a little out of the way. You don’t just stumble on this place. It takes a train. Then a bus. Then maybe a hike — uphill, because of course it’s uphill. And for a brief, soul-questioning moment, you’ll wonder if this was a mistake. If you’ve made a wrong turn not just on the map, but in life. But then, like the slow pull of a curtain at sunrise, it appears. The hotel. Not the sterile kind with 300 carbon-copy rooms and motivational phrases etched into throw pillows. No. This is something else. A structure with soul. Refined architectural details, coupled with expert craftsmanship. It doesn’t beg for attention — it knows it deserves it. And when you walk in, you’re not a guest. You’re not a tourist. You’re something older, deeper — a pilgrim who made it. The kind of place that offers not just a bed, but a reminder that beauty still exists in the details: hand-carved wood, real linen, warm stone floors under bare feet. Someone here gave a damn. Then the food hits. Not just a meal. A revelation. You take one bite and suddenly every overhyped, overpriced downtown bistro you’ve ever endured feels like culinary cosplay. Here, someone cooked like your grandmother would have if she’d trained in Kyoto, lived in Provence, and smoked unfiltered cigarettes while quoting Camus. It’s food with memory — bold, unapologetic, and sensual as hell. And luxury? It’s not in the thread count. I"

"Great in-room onsen"

"Amazing we loved it"

"One of the most beautiful hot spring resorts I have ever visited in the world. I will be back again to soak up the healing water, admire the stunning view of the Pacific and appreciate the hospitality of the wonderful staff. "

"One of the iconic hotels in all of Japan. If you’re in Japan and want to explore the Hakone area, you have to stay here. The service is impeccable, the hotel has 140+ years of history, and the dining choices are superb. Well worth the stay. And did I mention the staff? They welcomed me back (I had stayed years before) as if I were an honored guest. That little item made my day. I will return someday."
