Guest Reviews
- Verified traveler (8/5): 全体的に満足 - ドミトリーに宿泊。他の宿泊客が居なかったので10畳ほどのスペースに貸切状態なので快適だった。部屋は清潔。夜は静かでテレビもないためお風呂に入るくらいしかすることがない。風呂は広くないがお湯は良い。少し白っぽい硫黄分の多い感じ。Wi-Fiはあるが速度は遅かった。食事は当日頼んだが、釜飯を部屋に運んでくれた。貸切状態なので満足したが、他に人がいるときは微妙かもしれない。
- Verified traveler (8/5): - ごはんとお風呂はすごくよかったですが、食後のコーヒーが美味しくなかったのが残念でした。コーヒーが美味しいといいなと思いました。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - お部屋も綺麗で、温泉も24時間利用できて好きな時に何度も入れる為朝からゆっくり温泉に入れました。
お食事も美味しくて量も多く大満足でした。
大涌谷までとても近く、駅までの送迎もして頂けるのかとても助かりました!
- Sharon (10/5): Super cool - I am so grateful I booked my night in Hakone with these people! They made my stay in town super easy. They kindly took me back to the station a few times. Id def stay here if I have the chance in the future.
- Gaurav (10/5): Send an email to info@miz-k.xyz for pickup - Very comfortable stay. No qualms except the location. If you plan to stay here notify the hotel in advance for pick up from Gora station at info@miz-k.xyz That will solve all the logistical issues
- SEONGHYEOK (10/5): 全体的に快適! - 交通アクセスは少し不便と思いますが、施設が快適だったのもさることながら、サービスまで、全体的に良いと感じました。
- N (8/5): - 急に温泉に入りたく泉質で選びました。
わかりにくい場所ですが宿の方の丁寧で気さくな案内でスムースに辿りつけました。
浴室は大きくはないですがまた利用させて頂きたいと思います。
露天風呂は有料貸切でなく、有料貸切優先とかでそれ以外は無料で入替制にしてもらえるとより良いかと思いました。
- Donne (10/5): - Manager was extremely helpful and accommodating! Went over and beyond! Excellent service!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very nice hotel providing a quiet respite for us city dwellers. Hot spring bath every morning and night left us fresh and warm. Breakfast and dinner are sumptuous and nicely presented, reasonably priced. Friendly staff and courteous manager. The manager send and pick us up to and from station everyday. Save us a lot of time and energy. Email or call them from the Sounzan station for pick up especially when you arrive after dark, the route down the hill to the hotel is very quiet. Room is spacious and comfy.
- Panas (10/5): - The place is a bit hard to find if you plan to go yourself, but you can call the staff to pick you up and send you to the Sounsan station.
Staff is really friendly. The room is nice. The onsen is a good experience. I'll return to stay here again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - I used the shared dormitory plan. The dorm was a largish room that was separated in the middle by gender/group, each half was 12 tatamis in size.
It was far (and uphill) from Gora station, if you came with large suitcases and/or after dark, ask the hostel for a ride—the place provides free shuttle to/from Gora or Sounzan station
The place was comfortable and clean, but you’ll need to bring your own towel and oral hygiene products for the dorm plan.
Also the staff is really kind and nice, highly recommended for budget travelers
- Witchukorn (10/5): - พนักงานอัธยาศัยดี ห้องพักกว้างขวาง มีบริการรถรับส่งจากสถานีไปยังที่พัก วิวข้างนอกสวยงาม ธรรมชาติสุดๆ
- Verified traveler (8/5): natutal hotspring, remote location, serene view - The staff and service are awesome. This hotel is old and far from train, bus station. Every time you want to go to other place, you need to ask the staff to drive you to the train station. This hotel is good for people who want a retreat as it is in a remote area. It is quite and beautiful, surrounded by trees, mountain... There is natutal hotspring with beautiful view with a very small fee (150 yen). The only thing is this hotel is a little old. It is clean but there is odor.
- Bonnnie (10/5): Ryokan Stay - I loved my stay here. Great ryokan experience with friendly helpful staff, the food was tasty, the outside private onsen was delightful. It's a bit further outside of the town than expected but they have a shuttle service that will pick you up and drop you off. The facilities are dated but well kept and clean.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 良質の温泉であり、とても気に入りました。強羅駅への送迎があったので助かりました。ゆったりとした時間を過ごせました。
- PyunPyunMaru (10/5): 有名観光地箱根の安価な宿泊施設 - 有名観光地、箱根強羅に有るにもかかわらず安価に宿泊出来ました。
温泉に入ると体が良く温まり連続で8時間も眠ることが出来ました。
自宅で眠るときには、日常生活のストレスからか途中で目が覚めることが殆どですが、8時間連続で眠れてストレスを解消出来ました。
- M (8/5): 箱根ではリーズナブル - 子供との春休み小旅行として利用しました。価格がお高い箱根界隈ですが、価格と設備、食事のバランスがよく、満足できました。夕食、朝食とも和室のお部屋でいただく旅館スタイルです。
3月はまだ冬季という事で露天風呂はやっておらず残念でしたが、部屋の窓からの眺望がよく、部屋の広さも良かったです。
日本酒の利き酒セットはどれも美味しかった。おすすめです。
- hoiyi (10/5): I will go again for sure. - We have good time there
- 児玉源太郎 (10/5): 安価で泊まれる温泉付き宿泊施設です - 久々に温泉に入ったところ熟睡出来ました。
安く宿泊出来て、熟睡で来て体調が良くなりました。
普段は眠るのに苦労するのですが、さすが箱根の温泉だけあっていつの間にか眠りについてしまいました。
- Serena (10/5): Posizione - Buona posizione per muoversi con la cablecar e funivia
- Walker (10/5): Amazing Traditional Roykan and Onsen - Beautiful traditions Roykan and Onsen set in the perfect area of Hakone. The owner and staff are SO kind and want to go above and beyond. She will even drive you to the station close by. Everything was perfect.
- Verified traveler (10/5): More than expected - More than expected for the price we paid. Service was 5 star all the way. The place is a little old, but kept clean and was comfortable. Onsen water was hot and relaxing. The meals were delicious.
We were a little worried about this place, as I could not find much for reviews or information. We were blown away. Service was top notch, every time we asked for something they went above and beyond. I would recommend this place to anyone.
- Choy Fong (10/5): Good Place to stay - Good property. They will pick and send you to the station. ¥1080 breakfast is good. It is clean. Will consider staying again..
- SANGA (8/5): Very good stay - Very good experience stay with dinner and breakfast set. But unfortunate it rained. Cable car close.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very nice clean and cozy hotel
The smell of the room reminds me of hot spring water, and I really like it!
The location is hard to find so please call the host in advance, she will pick you up for free from the station.
Dinner was ok but the breakfast was great!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - My husband and I are on our first trip to Japan and spent the first three days energetically traversing Tokyo. We headed to Hakone for a rest and to try the famed onsens and Hakone Loop. We arrived and walked the short (but uphill) distance .07 miles from the cable car stop at Sounzan to this onset. If you have phone service, they have a shuttle and will come get you from the station. The onsen itself is very secluded and quiet. Matsura and his staff is very friendly and very helpful. They speak English pretty well and were able to answer all our questions. The onsen hot spring bath experience is nice and they have many beauty products to sample while you bathe. Although we did not plan it in advance, Matsura and his staff were able to provide us both a traditional Japanese dinner and breakfast, which were filling, delicious and reasonably priced. They have souvenirs for purchase as well. Although the decor is dated, both my husband and I felt very comfortable like we were visiting our grandmas' home. The room was immaculate and the traditional tatami flooring as well as the futons were nice. In short, we would recommend this onsen. Matsura and his staff do an exceptional job.
- Asha (10/5): Excellent! - This may have been my favourite part of our visit to Hakone. It's a little out of the way, but it's worth the trip. The hotel has two private onsen, and yukata provided with your stay. Breakfast was Excellent- we definitely recommend. The staff was very friendly, kind, and helpful and we had no trouble with speaking only English. We would definitely go back.
- Amy (10/5): Amazing introduction to Japan! - This hotel was our first real stop in Japan and it was perfect.
Situated near the very top of the Gora funicular we chose to walk, although transfer is available. About a 30 min easy walk with nice views, it could be harder to find without a map.
The staff where very warm and welcoming on arrival.
We where, admittedly, pretty much noobs to Japanese culture when we arrived. The staff where incredibly kind, patient and understanding. They went out of their way to teach us how to use the Onsen, the futons. Even how to eat particular dishes.
After our stay we felt well equated to go out into a new country and not look like complete idiot tourists.
The food was delicious, all cooked fresh. Our waitress was lovely and, despite us not being able to communication well, taught us a lot about Japanese food.
Onsen, I now know are the best cure for a long haul flight. This hotel has two that alternate between men and women. The larger has large glass windows into a beautiful view of the hills and trees.
I can't say thank you enough to the staff and the perfect welcome they gave us to the country.
- Verified traveler (10/5): 送迎が有ります - 駅から離れていますが、送迎が有りますので利用しやすい施設です。
ドミトリーでしたが、当日はドミトリーへの宿泊者が私だけだったようで広々とした部屋に一人で宿泊出来ました。
- Suzannah (10/5): Cozy onsen - I had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay again! Note: It’s a bit hard to get there from the station, a bit of a walk if you have lots of luggage would recommend coordinating a pick up in advanced. I just had a backpack so I walked it fine. The location shown on the map for the confirmation email is incorrect, just a heads up, but not far off from the actual location. The staff were wonderful! 10/10. I felt very welcome and had a wonderful time in the onsen. Everything was clean and tidy. The breakfast is traditional Japanese food and was delicious! Everything was kindly explained to me and tasted wonderful. Really a great value for the price!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Lovely ryokan with a nice onsen and traditional Japanese rooms - ours had both futon and Western-style beds. Very friendly staff with a good level of English. Peaceful location a short walk from the bus stop, free transfers to the cable car / rope way station. Easy to get to Gora and the volcano. Breakfast was also superb! Highly recommended.
- tim (10/5): Very Japanese, excellent service beyond compariso - Sleeping on mattress on floor Japanese style was fun. Staff and owner bent over backwards to help including driving us to ropeway station and to catch bus.
Cleanest hotel I have ever seen.
Superb staff. Pretty location. Nice onsen.
Outstanding
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Excellent experience in this hotel. Good staff, room and onsen
- sam lam (8/5): it's very nice hotel. - 在早雲山站下車, 走10多分鐘, 房間很乾淨, 很舒適. 建議 給EMAIL info@miz-k.xyz 給老闆當你到的時候. 老闆也非常好人.
- Kenji (8/5): - Hotel staff are very kindness . The hotel close to the station of ropeway.
- mingzhu (8/5): - 二食付きプランを選べました。料理はシンプルで美味しいです。お値段以上価値があると思います。
また利用したいと思います。
- Verified traveler (8/5): Auberge un peu isolée - Cet établissement est un peu isolé, donc pensez surtout à réserver votre dîner en même temps que votre nuit pour ne pas avoir de mauvaises surprises. Accueil chaleureux, chambre propre. Petit déjeuner japonais. Onsen juste parfait, un véritable bonheur.
- Pauline and Joh (8/5): Quiet, rural guest housey - A quiet, restful break from a busy sightseeing holiday that was made complete by evenings of hot, soaking spas and delicious, in-house japanese cuisine. An easy 10 minute walk from the Sounzan cablescar station. Our hosts were just wonderful.
- john and Paulin (10/5): Friendly and very helpful
- We learnt a lot about the area and about Japanese Food
Nothing was too much trouble including transport to local bus Cable car etc
- Dex (10/5): Overall a good place - Comfortable rooms and great staff, even drove us to the station
- JIYOULEE (10/5): 아담하고 조용한 료칸 - 엉겁결에 예약을 하고, 역부터 료칸까지 거리가 가늠이 안되어서 무척 걱정했음. 첫날에는 택시를 타고 갔는데 캄캄한 산길을 계속 가서 무섭기도 했음. 하지만 막상 도착해서는 대만족! 조용하고 깨끗하고 친절하고 따뜻함. 2박 내내 공동 욕탕에서 다른 사람 마주친적 없음. 객실과 욕탕 거리도 가까워서 좋았음. 첫날 이외에는 모두 무료 셔틀 이용해서 고라, 소운잔 역까지 편하게 이용함. 언제든지 셔틀 이용할 수 있고, 이메일로 시간 보내면 데리러 나와주시는 것도 무척 감사했음.
- Verified traveler (10/5): 元企業の保養所を改装した宿 - 元企業の保養所を改装したので建物は少し古いが、丁寧に掃除されているので問題はないです。
元々ドミトリーで予約したが空室があるのでオーナーの計らいで10畳部屋の個室にアップグレートして頂けました。
また、浴室の泉質は非常に良く、大涌谷から直接温泉を引いていて源泉100%の掛け流しです。
- Wonder (10/5): 早雲山站的小資族旅館 - 雖然名為強羅,但實際在早雲山站, 下車 後 往纜車 的方向,步行 10多分鐘,路程起伏 相當累人,建議電話與旅館連絡 會有人員接送。禢禢米房間很乾淨、溫泉區很舒適、早餐CP值很高,小資旅遊的好選擇。
- Verified traveler (8/5): Ryokan in den Bergen - Die Unterkunft liegt mitten in den Bergen, wie andere Unterkünfte in der Gegend auch. Besonders gut war die Anbindung mit dem Bus (und später Seilbahn).
In der Unterkunft gibt es einen tolle Onsen, das gerne nach einem Tagesausflug genutzt wird. So bietet sich gleichzeitig die Gelegenheit einen Ryokan und einen Onsen zu erleben.
Das Essen war in Ordnung, jedoch für Ausländer etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig. Da es aber fußläufig keine Restaurants gibt, war es ganz praktisch, wenn man nicht nochmal mit dem Bus los möchte.
- hk (6/5): 位置非常不便。 - 不是自駕遊遊客,原本想預約接送服務,唯在當天早上開始致電酒店直至傍晚卻沒人接聽。七人在暴雨環境下在早雲山駅拖著行李步行三十分鐘才到酒店。
酒店內溫泉十分不乾淨,房內亦沒有景觀可言,不推薦得一間酒店.
- russell (10/5): Very cozy, peaceful stay in the Hakone mountains - We took a taxi from sounzan station to avoid the walk and don't think we'd have managed with luggage. Very steep roads. The staff went above and beyond, rushing off to finish cleaning the room up when we arrived an hour early. There was a shuttle bus available and for the rest of our stay we were delivered to and picked from the station. Gentleman driving the bus had ok English skills but other than that there was a lot of charades (we have very little Japanese language knowledge).
We stayed as a mother and son but the room was probably better suited to a couple. Excellent view from room window.
Important note: I have a full sleeve tattoo and this is the first Onsen I have been to that was ok for me to bathe. A big plus for me and an unexpected bonus.
- Verified traveler (8/5): 人里離れた静かな隠れ家宿 - こちらは企業の保養所をホテルに改修したようなので、設備等は少し古く、Wi-Fiもロビーに行かないと使えないという点を除けば、従業員さんの接客態度は親切で、宿泊料も比較的にお手頃価格なので、また箱根に旅行に行った際は利用したいと思います。
- ryoji (6/5): お風呂は良いが - 1階の部屋だったにもかかわらずフロントに記載のあったWi-Fiが届かなかったことと、男女で分かれている2つの浴室を「深夜に男女入れ替えます」と言われたにもかかわらず結局変えてくれなかったということが非常に残念でした。周囲数キロにわたって店らしいものがなく真っ暗という静かな環境です。素泊まりであれば食事を持ち込んだほうがいいと思います。
