Guest Reviews
- KEIKO (10/5): - とても快適でした。温泉も気持ちよく食事のバイキングもとても美味しかったです。夕食を予約しないで行ったのですが、夕食の追加をお願いしたらすぐに手配して頂きました。
- Anna (8/5): läge - Bra läge på hotellet
- CHUN JIET (10/5): - Very very good
- Yuen Mei (8/5): - -房間充電位太少
-晚餐時間定於6pm-8pm, 影響行程安排
-因颱風關係, 登山電車、觀光巴士路線需要暫停及改道,
要用巴士連接各景點, 但前櫃服務人員對班次資料不夠清楚
+服務人員態度良好有禮
+早餐晚餐都是自助餐
+靠近強羅站,好方便
- Andy (10/5): - 酒店比較殘舊,但整體而言都尚算整潔,職員友善,令人住得舒服,但床及枕頭較硬,沒有羽絨枕及羽絨被供應。自助早餐及晚餐很好吃,雖然款式不多,但勝在夠傳統。另外交通方便,距離強羅站只有3分鐘步程,就算第一次去都唔驚搵唔到,方便至極。
- Mary (10/5): Super cozy hotel in Gora - We loved this hotel but we love hostels too and this reminded me of a nice hostel. So comfortable and staff was extremely helpful and just nice!
It's not fancy but super clean and we loved the breakfast. There were a few western options but it's fun to see what the rest of the world is eating at 7 o'clock in the morning!
- Piotr (8/5): Good stay. - Very conveniently located with friendly and helpful staff.
Spacious room and comfortable beds!
Bonus- it has a nice onsen that was a great place to go after all day activities.
Needs a bit of updating/refreshing.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Central location close to all transport, friendly staff, and very quiet.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 交通方便丶一出強羅站行兩分鐘到丶設施還可以丶溫泉池較少一點丶冷熱水供應充足!早丶晚餐質素不俗丶與房價配合!
- Yoshii (8/5): - 駐車場の台数が少ない、ただ最寄り駅が近いという点ではしようが無いのか、価格の点ではサイトで可なりの差があるのが、気になる
- CANDY (8/5): - 酒店較舊, 膳食是自助餐形式, 不算太多款, 味道還可以, 房間插蘇位得一個, 唔算方便, 可能同舊式有關, 整體還可以
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The location is the main plus. Very near restaurants and transport. At first we thought, there was a bad smell in the room, but then we realized that the whole town is in a volcanic area that smells of sulphur. The room was comfortable enough but unremarkable. Seemed a bit pricey for what was offered. Friendly, helpful staff.
- Jessica (8/5): - The staff are very friendly and helpful. They are always ready to offer help and very polite. The buffet dinner is of very low price but offer lots of variety of food ans drinks. The hotel is located just next to the Gora station, easy to find, and there are also buses and shops near the hotel. Hotel is a bit old, but clean and with competitive price, highly recommend.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 食事が美味しかったです
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The hotel is nearby railway & bus sta. The facilities are old but ok. The breakfast & dinner are buffet, foods not much choice. The staff are nice & helpful.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 料理も美味しく満足しました。
- Po-jui (8/5): 出遊首選 - 距離日暮里車站五分鐘,往來成田機場行李不用拉很遠,房間不大但乾淨,接待人員親切
- Verified traveler (6/5): - 近車站,往旅遊景點方便。早餐不錯。
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 特に無いが、お土産売り場の充実を望む。
- HO MAN (10/5): - 服務員細心體貼,早餐及晚餐都好好味,直得再次入住
- Michael (10/5): - Across from station , lots of restaurants around, next to the mono rail , bus in front,. FREE dinner and breakfast excellent , personal onsen cheap or free public
- David (8/5): אוכל בא. בוקר וערב טוב מאוד - מזג האויר הגשום והערפל לא איפשרו יציאה מהמלון. המלון עצמו מצויין וכך גם האוכל והשירות. המיטה קצת קשה
- yihsuan (8/5): 地理位置極方便又價格合理的旅館 - 離強羅站非常近是一大優點。雖然房間不算大,但地面有空間可以打開放平一個26寸行李箱已經足夠了。旁邊就是鐵道的關係,電車經過的聲音有點吵,如果是很重視寧靜度的人可能要考慮。晚餐跟早餐都是吃自助buffet,菜色還算豐富。以這樣的價格在箱根其實算是很推薦的旅館。
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 早晚餐,每日應該要有不同的菜式!
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Too close to the railway line. Therefore quite noisy. If possible book a room showing to the back....that will change the experience significantly
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Good onsen very convenient near the station. Friendly service and good size rooms
- Timothy (8/5): Great location - Good location next to the last train stop and the first station of the funicular over the volcanic zone. Small bathroom, but not bad for Japan.
- Zetter (8/5): - 地点極佳就在強羅站旁,但會聽到火車聲。温泉有室外同室內,正!亦有貸切風呂,不過要付費。晚餐和早餐食物很多款式,唔錯。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Family orientated onsen with good facilities and excellent location at railway and cog rail stations and bus loop.Staff very helpful too.
- Yu Cheong (8/5): 十分方便及舒適嘅酒店 - 地點好近車站, 食物也不錯, 很多選擇。
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The property’s location is a big plus—just across the railroad tracks from the station, the first building down the hill (a little better signage in English on the railroad side would be very helpful). The local bus stops are nearby as well. There is not much to choose from nearby meal wise, so the “board” options here are a must—a buffet that we found agreeable at both dinner and breakfast (limited options in Western terms, though). Would I stay here again if in the Gora area? Most likely.
- MIAO MEI (10/5): Good Hotel for Stay - The hotel is located next to the train station. The room is a bit old. It offer hot spring at public bathroom. The breakfast and dinner are very good. It offers buffet with variety of foods. Saw a lot of local stay in this hotel. The front desk can speak basic English.
- mami (4/5): - こちらで予約させていただきましたが、駐車場が設備の欄に記載されていたので、そのまま当日現地に伺ったところ、事前申し込みが無い為、駐車場の用意がないとのことでした。
こちらのサイトからで特に注意書きも無かったと伝えたところ、離れた狭小の道の奥にある駐車場を案内しますと返答。
結局宿近くのコインパーキングが夜になって空いた為、停めることができましたが、そのような状況なら事前に確認連絡を頂くか、設備に駐車場と記載しないでいただきたいと思いました。
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice hotel, convenience - Convenience location near Gora station, High C/P value, nice hotel.
- Jean (8/5): Location was good but beds were uncomfortable - The location was good as it is very close to Gora station. However, there is no English hotel name indicated hence we had to ask the information counter on where is the hotel. Will be good to indicate English hotel name near the bus stop/ station. The room was quite small and the beds were not too comfortable to sleep on. All the adults had backeache upon waking up and did not sleep well throughout the night. The toilet was small and looks like those toilet used in the cruise. Overall ok for just one night stay.
- zvi (2/5): - bad room
poor breakfest.
- Corinne (10/5): Good location, old structure - The location of the hotel is perfect, just 1 minute away from Gora station. The building however is quite old and the carpet in the room had a funny smell. We had dinner and breakfast included, which are a nice buffets with some wester food as well. I suggest to include both meals, as there are no restaurants open in the area during the evening.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 夕食・朝食バイキング利用→味は普通だがプランは安い
貸切り露天風呂利用→どちらかというと内風呂に近い。開放的。
- Ryan (8/5): - We stayed one night at Gora Hotel Paipu No Kemuri in late October 2018. Like all the other posts, the hotel was right across the railroad tracks from Gora Station. Very easy to get to. We had to get to the hotel by 6 PM since we booked with half board (dinner & breakfast). I am not sure if there are food establishments nearby since our stay came with meals. The dinner and breakfast was good (buffet style), actually better than I expected, but probably changes on a daily basis. The staff did not speak much English, but we did not have an issue. The outside bath was nice after a long day of travelling. The noise from the busses and trains were a bit loud, but that did not bother me. Overall it is what I expected after reading the reviews.
- 路 (8/5): 交通方便服務態度佳 - 交通方便就在強羅站旁,但相對火車經過時會有較大的聲音。房間內只有暖氣沒有冷氣,且窗戶不易打開,室內空氣不流通稍嫌悶熱。
- CHORNGJENG (8/5): 交通方便 - 自助餐地方特色,以住宿費用來說cp值,算高的
- Peter (6/5): Bring ear plugs - On paper this hotel and location looked good. Unfortunately, it is right next to the train line, which runs trains every 15 minutes between 5:30am and 11:30pm. If you get a room on that side then make sure you have ear plugs if you want any sleep.
My recommendation is to stay down the mountain and do Gora etc. as a day trip. There is nothing in Gora to warrant staying there for. Most hotels are self contained, and anything outside shuts early.
- Vivian (8/5): Good choice, near Gora Station - You must book breakfast and dinner (buffet) with the hotel. Can't find good food outside, a small town. The hotel will charge you another 150 yen per person even you have fully paid. Service is good. Location is great just short walk from the station. Easy to catch the Cale car. You have not much choice in Gora station with private bathroom. The reception is located in B1.
- Roberto (8/5): Soggiorno rilassante - Hotel vicino alla stazione ferroviaria ed alla funivia. Cena e colazione a buffet buone, considerando l'alto numero di ospiti, personale molto gentile. Le camere sono spaziose, qualche ritocco rinnovamento sull'edificio. Buono l'0onsen
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice hotel next to the train station. Breakfast was not that great, Dinner was OK. Staffs were not good with English but they tried to help. The room on the other side of the train tracks were great, we didn't hear any noise from trains.
- Verified traveler (10/5): 令人驚喜的住宿體驗 - 雖然外觀不起眼,但飯店提供的早餐及晚餐非常豐盛,令人後悔下午時吃了小點心,而房間內有不算小的桌子及四張椅子很寬敞舒適,重點是距離箱根強羅車站也非常近,強烈推薦有小孩的家族旅客入住
- Ric (4/5): - too expensive too expensive too expensive too expensive
- Eddie (8/5): - Communal onsen clean and well maintained
- Carol (10/5): Fabulous location - Absolutely the best location! A short walk from Gora Station. 2 single beds comfortable for my sister & me. Wonderful onsen separate for men/woman, outdoor bath & indoor bath. The capsule style bathroom in the room was our least favorite part of the room. We would stay again.
We had dinner in Hakone Yumoto at 808 Pizza & it was the best Naples style pizza well worth the 40 min switch back train ride.
The little town of Gora closes down abour 6. Make sure you include buffet style modest breakfast for $5. Which Starts at 7:30 am or you will go hungry until late morning. The tonkatsu restaurant about 2 blocks away closes at 7 pm. We did not get the dinner buffet.
- Susan (4/5): Disappointing - Disappointing for what we paid. This is a budget hotel really. Great location, but otherwise poor.
- Bruce (6/5): 2 nights spent. - Lack of English referencing on information signs, brochures, restaurant was disappointing.
Bed very hard.
Unaware of the local tax for hot springs - wether any hot springs used or not. It was raised at check in.
The Y100 all you can eat evening meal was fantastic value which is the key point of recommendation.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Good Hotel but additional 300 Yen on check-in - Good hotel and good food. However had to pay an extra 300 Yen which was not mentioned at the time of booking.
- Christopher (6/5): Location > Comfort - Can’t really beat this location if you do the cable car and ropeway thing. Hotel dated, staff friendly, and beds a little hard. Ended up in a room next to the train tracks (knew it was a possibility when booking, wasn’t able to switch out unless we wanted a smoking room). Gambled and didn’t come up a winner, I guess. Got to sleep ok bc train stops at 2200, but starts at 0530, so it woke us. Have public and private baths, but didn’t make time for it. Private requires reservation. Overall, prob hit or miss depending on room location.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Website says breakfast & dinner buffet included for hotel's guests which is misleading because I ended up paying for it at the front desk.
- Verified traveler (8/5): No heater in room but otherwise great - Location and food was good.
Only complaint is the room had no heater and was pretty cold at night
- kent lim (10/5): Excellent and convenient hotel! - Hotel is 3 mins walk from Gora station! Very convenient especially during winter. Hotel staff are very friendly and accommodating throughout stay! Best thing is their private onsen! Definitely my choice of stay the next time I come back to hakone! Thank you for making my stay in hakone a memorable one!
- May In (8/5): GOOD - friendly receptionist, good dinner, fair breakfast
- Key (4/5): Close to Gora station but very cold - Very accessible as it is walking distance to Gora station. Hot spring pool in hotel was great but chargeable at 150 per night. The room was super cold as the heater only blew a small area and was ineffective. You will freeze in the night!
- BT (8/5): Nice and convenient hotel - Check in is fast. The room is clean and the private onsen is good. The hotel food selection is wide but the quality is average.
- Cryo (6/5): hitel close to Gora station - it is a basic hotel providing basic comfort level. Furnishing n furniture are old . Cleanliness needs to be improved. a stale n greasy odour lingered in the room. Staff are courteous but speak only basic English
- Kheng Beng (8/5): - Overall stay was alright
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Small but convenient, close to train station. Train noise is bad,
- Verified traveler (10/5): Most convenient hotel - The hotel is conveniently located next to the train station and the cable car station, and directly below the street leading up to the nice Gora Park. (The hotel is next to the train tracks, so you can hear the trains passing by.) Although the staff speak very little English, they tried to understand my questions and help as much as they could. The breakfast and dinner were good.
We had to pay a standard 300 yen onsen tax. We used the onsen; it was nice and clean.
- Jackie (8/5): Great location but train station is next to it - Great location but located next to train track thus can get disturbed by the sound from 0523hrs to 2241hrs.
- Sheila (10/5): - Lovely low key hotel. Comfortable room and great dining room. Close to train and cable car. Includes Japanese bathing facility.
- Yoram (8/5): Best location - Very good supper and breakfast
- Joe (8/5): Excellent Hotel for Easy Access to Hakone Area - This is a clean quiet convenient hotel with all the amenities you need for a trip to the Hakone area. It has hot springs baths, a very good restaurant for breakfast and dinner and is very close to the Gora station where you can easily catch a bus, taxi or the cable car to easily access anywhere you want to go in the Hakone area. It is not a luxury hotel, but is well-kept and has excellent amenities at an affordable price - excellent value for the money. I would definitely stay here again when visiting this area of Japan.
- Han (10/5): Excellent location,Staff friendly, well-equipped - Staff helped me return my laptop bag left at massage chair area
- Charmaine (10/5): Nice hotel & very near to GORA Station - The location of this hotel is close to GORA Station , bus stops and shops . It's a great place to stay . Staff were friendly , pleasant and helpful . The breakfast and dinner buffet were very good and delicious . Room itself was clean and comfortable . My family was very pleased with our stay here . Hope to be back for a longer visit in the future .
- XIAODONG (6/5): Moderate hotel - This hotel seems ageing, room size is OK, hotel staff is limited in English, but overall it is a clean and conveniently located.
- Wanette (10/5): GREAT HOTEL - Great hotel, great location. Right outside of Gora Train Station. Easy access to the cable car and rope way to view Mt Fuji and the boat ride on Lake Ashi. Hotel had private onsen with a minimal cost which was great. Breakfast and dinner was provided and that was good. Everything about this hotel was GREAT! I would definitely stay here again.
- Verified traveler (4/5): no toilet inside the room, cant speak english - there is no shower/bath neither toilet inside the room, and they didnt mention it in the website, even the hotel's page didnt mention it, it is very inconvenient. Well understand that onsen hotel may not have shower inside the room, but they should mention it. I have informed Hotels.com about this point, and they suggested me to call and ask if you have any concerns or something else that they did not mentioned in the website, so you may have to call and make sure the hotels got a bed, pillows, towels, slippers, toilet, bath/shower, hair dryer.......whatever they dint mention!
The staffs hardly understand and speak in english...cant communicate at all......
- Alex (8/5): Great location, awesome breakfast and onsen. - This hotel is right next to the station in Gora and is an awesome base to explore Hakone and its surrounds. The hotel is a little dated but was comfortable and clean enough for our family and also had its own indoor and outdoor Onsen on the B1 floor.
Breakfast was also included in the price and the selection for breakfast was absolutely awesome, including japanese/western food as well as soft drinks, coffee/tea soft serves, waffles etc etc. Great price for its location, perfect for those budget conscious travellers who want an awesome location to explore Hakone from.
- Traveler (8/5): Nice acceptable hotel - Staff and restaurant are very good. Rooms are clean
- Verified traveler (8/5): Homy Comfortable - Location, Staff, Facility (Private Onsen), Buffet all are very good.
Very comfortable- homy & relax.
We will be back.
