Guest Reviews
- Gloria (8/5): - We enjoyed our stay. Kira is a very friendly great hostess. We had dinner there. The experience was totally worth it. The service was excellent and interaction with people from other parts of the world was great.
- Meguru (10/5): - 清潔感あるゲストハウスでした。
- FARAH (8/5): - Great location in terms of close to bus stop and train station. 2 min walk to the Open Air Museum. The community dinner is good. The only downside of this guesthouse is that the bathroom and rooms smelly really bad. They could easily fix this problem by using candles or incense.
- Juan Manuel (10/5): - Very pleased
- Joseph (10/5): - That property for what it cost it’s amazing the people they are very nice very .
- Verified traveler (10/5): Caro para ser un hostal - En general bueno, me parece caro para ser un hostal, baño compartido, pague ese valor en varios hoteles teniendo baño con tina privado dentro de la habitación
- Martino (10/5): - Very well located, we had an excellent stay.
Room becomes very cold at night
People are extremely welcoming
- Josey (8/5): - Staff are friendly and helpful, kitchen for cooking your own pwn meals is useful, all oils and sauces provided too. bar area is nice. Bathroom facilities are fine, seemed clean. Coin operated washer and dryer is very handy.
Can smell because of sulphur onsens in the area.
Very basic but i guess cheap for the area of Gora?
Size of family room was good. Sleeping Mats aren't great, we doubled our up. But nosiy given agebof property, ok if other guests are considerate.
Great for getting on funicular at Gora to ropeway. Can actuallybwalk to Gora station in about 12mins.
Limited food options in area, so its good to be able to cook. Right next to Hakone open air museum, 20 min walk to nearest oublic onsen.
- keiko (10/5): - I found this place in last minute . It’s really reasonable and nostalgic ryokan style.
- Dany (10/5): - Outstanding service, will come back
- Verified traveler (10/5): - There is a really nice atmosphere, the staff are more than friendly, the lounge area and kitchen are great to meet other travellers and have a nice conversation. Thank you for a great stay!
- Kathleen (10/5): - A few minutes walk after the train, up a doable hill past the open air museum which is a great highlight of the guesthouse. The irori dinner needs to be ordered in advance with limited seating & was a sweet experience where I got to wear a pretty yakuta for the first time, I just didn’t know what was the right way to wear it. The staff were helpful, many spoke a bit of English or more & were helpful with things to do. I love the decor & the look of the place. Felt very rustic which was the perfect look for the mountains. Keep in mind traveling time as the cable car trains take a while due to being a one way scenic rail & many stops along the way. I highly recommend this stay!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - good
- Callam (8/5): - Overall great property, though a little bit far away from most things in the area. A cosy japanese style hoste l experience
- Corey (8/5): - A nice little hostel. Well situated where you can get to whatever you want to do.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice hostel - Veldig søt jente jobbet her og hjalp oss finne ut av hvordan best mulig sjekke ut Hakone. Felles bad og toalett, litt slitent bad. Rommene var fine, men dynen var eksponert og ble ikke vasket, føltes ikke så rent. Det var vanskelig å finne et bra hotell i Hakone til en ok pris, så fornøyd med dette funnet.
Utenfor var det en liten cafe på hjul, her spiste vi frokost, FANTASTISK grilled cheese. Og verdens hyggeligste mann som lagde den. Anbefales!
- Emmanuel (10/5): Super!!! - Very good welcome, the staff were really nice to us. Everything was well explained and we were able to have dinner together over an indoor grill. Great!!!
- Tomoko (10/5): C’est un hôtel merveilleux!! - 清潔で真新しい、でもとても和の雰囲気を残した宿。自炊可。ベッドは広く寝心地よい。なによりもスタッフの感じのよいこと、よく地元のことを知っていて情報提供を惜しまないことは、ホテルの見本にしたいくらい。しかもとても交通が便利。彫刻の森から数分。彫刻の森駅から7分程度。強羅駅に徒歩15分程度。
バスにも近く、強風でロープウェイが停止したとくに唯一使える大涌谷行き伊豆箱根バスの二の平入口バスまで徒歩10分(バス停そばにコンビニ有り)。宿代適正でもう一度使いたい。
唯一の問題点はというとお湯の出る洗面台の蛇口が限られること。もちろんシャワーは大丈夫だが、寒い時期にお湯が出ないのは辛い。台所はお湯が出る。
- yutaka (10/5): - ゲストハウスなので、いろいろ共同になります。施設は広く、スタッフも丁寧でした。ただ、施設内の駐車場は限りがあって停められなかった。近くのコインパーキングまで歩いて15分以上あるし、まわりにコンビニもないのでそこが不便かな。
- Katie (10/5): - We stayed here for two nights in one of the small double pods (up the ladder). It was a bigger space than we expected and quite comfortable. The walls are understandably thin, so be prepared to hear people in the rooms around and below you. There are earplugs provided, which is helpful. The staff were all lovely and we really enjoyed our dinner around the fire! We also walked to a nearby onsen and found the location to be very convenient for exploring Hakone. Would definitely recommend!
- HONGFEI (10/5): - 良かったです
- TETSUYA (10/5): - 最高でした
- Steffi (10/5): - Dinner Option was excellent and whole guesthouse is minimalistic stylish :) Loved it.
- みはる (10/5): - 最高でした
- ゆりな (10/5): - 高級ホテルや旅館の多い強羅駅近辺で手軽な価格で宿泊できてありがたかったです。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - とても快適で楽しい滞在でした。
- Toshiharu (10/5): - 正月駅伝観戦時、素泊まりに利用。宿前に無料駐車場が有り便利。駅伝見物の宮ノ下まで300m。ローテーションの若い男性女性スタッフは親切で居心地が良かった。翌朝9時にチェックアウト後に歩いて1分の彫刻の森の森美術館に14時まで遊びに行ったが、宿の駐車場に車を無料で止めさせてくれ助かった。
- Verified traveler (8/5): 良いと思います - 家族3人で宿泊させていただきました
彫刻の森美術館のバス停の目の前なので、バス移動の方には便利だと思います
ユネッサンへは徒歩でも行けます(ただし、往路は上り坂です)
スタッフさんは丁寧に館内を案内して下さったり、対応が良く、気持ち良く利用させていただけました
古民家をリノベーションされたとのことで、足跡や隣の部屋や廊下からの声は響きます
また、トイレ、シャワー室、洗面所は共同です
- Tadashi (8/5): - いろりがかっこよかったです。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 翌日も他の方のチェックイン時間まで車を停めさせて頂き助かりました。
- Verified traveler (10/5): スタッフの方が親切 - スタッフの方がとても親切で、家族で快適な宿泊ができました。近くにコンビニ等もあり、便利なロケーションです。
- Verified traveler (10/5): 囲炉裏端での夕食◎ - ドミトリー利用。シャワー室快適。シャンプー等ありがたかった。囲炉裏端での食事1000円はごはんとお味噌汁おかわり自由。一人旅にはお勧めします。
- Chisato (8/5): 家族で - 露天風呂はとても気持ちよかったです。
細部の清掃について少し気になりました。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - スタッフさんは男性2人でしたが、
お2人ともとても親切でコミュニケーションを積極的にとってくださり、とても良い時間を過ごせました!
今回は急遽行ったので、次回は囲炉裏を囲んで食べるディナーも是非体験してみたいと思います。
数日泊まってワーケーションなども出来そうだなと思える居心地の良さでした。
本当にありがとうございました:)
- Maggie (10/5): - 囲炉裏を囲んでスタッフ、他の宿泊者との交流がとにかく魅力的だった。
- Verified traveler (10/5): オススメします - 囲炉裏が1番の特徴。夕御飯は食べられなかったが、囲炉裏で食べたらおいしそう。
ドミトリーは冷房が効いていて快適だった。
全体的に清潔。お風呂はシャワーのみ。
スタッフもフレンドリーで良かったです。
- Javier (10/5): Good place to stay, close to hakonetozan Chokokuno - This was my first time staying at a guest house. I am very impressed of how friendly and attentive the personnel is. They made the check in and check out very easy and recommended places to visit. Looking forward to stay again in the near future
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Clean, tatami style rooms, fully equipped kitchen. Showers, toilets, and kitchen are all shared, but we never had a problem. The hearth's a great place to hang out. Staff speaks pretty good English.
Convenient access to transit. Not many food options (especially at night) in the area though.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice 1-day trip - Nice stay, simple hostel for a very good price, everything looks very new and rustic style. Cozyness feeling the whole time. Loved it!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Friendly and helpful staff. The guesthouse was very clean and tidy. It's worth to book the room for privacy. Fully recommended.
- Olivia (10/5): Fab stay - Absolutely lovely place, really friendly staff and a great spot to get to a number of local attractions.
- Renato (10/5): Cool and cool - So good
- Tsi Ling Betty (8/5): - 是一間很好的青年旅社。員工很友善也很樂意幫助解決問題。圍爐很有特色。有很多外國人入住。是好體驗。
- Serge (10/5): - bon Rapport qualité prix dans une auberge traditionnelle
Expérience à faire
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Bueno para vivir la experiencia de un ryokan, limpio.
- GABRIEL (10/5): - Fiquei apaixonado pelo lugar. O pessoal que trabalha no local é muito atencioso. A janta lá é muito gostosa. Fica muito próximo ao Open Air Museum.
- Catherine (10/5): - This place was beautiful! The whole property was quite pleasing to look at. Our room was a bit small for the price was affordable compared to the competitors. The one problem we had was being woken up by others moving around the hostel. Because the place was made of wood there was lots of creaking. The floors also seemed thin because it sounded like someone was slamming themselves against the floor every time they moved.
The bathrooms were clean and they even had a communal dinner every night.
The location is GREAT.
- Irina (8/5): - Хороший хостел за свою цену Семьям предоставляются отдельные комнаты Отличная Кухня для самостоятельного приготовления еды
- Richard (10/5): Heaven. - Such an amazing place. Would highly recommend to all.
- 旅楽 (8/5): - 新しくて、デザインも素敵でした。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Super friendly staff, great stay. Cozy bar/chill area. About 5-7 min walk from bus, 2-4 min walk from train.
- Jane (10/5): - We booked the family room and it was spacious and clean. The staff was very friendly and accessible.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great place, modern and traditional. Wonderful staff.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - This was a really fun place to stay. The community dinner was delicious and fun. The staff was friendly and helpful!
- Dmitrij (10/5): Cosy and authentic guesthouse - We stayed at Irori for just one night and it's the kind of place that makes you think you might want to stay for a bit longer. We loved everything from the casual, tasteful and authentic interior and the comfy bed to cheerful, friendly and super helpful staff. We stayed in a deluxe room which was pretty small but in the end it was absolutely fine for our personal needs and the price we've paid. We had dinner served in the living/chill room - a japanese style fish barbecue with mushrooms and canned chicken. For £10 per head you can't ask for more, especially considering how cosy everything went with everyone sitting around the grills and chatting over a saké. All in all it was wonderful and we totally recommend it if you're in for something unfussy and casual and want to make a few friends along the way.
PS Don't believe the pillow comments in other reviews, it's BS. They are absolutely fine. Even more so, they're better than the ones in some fancier Tokyo hotels we've stayed before.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Amazing guest house with hospitable staff - Stayed in a private room which was large and comfortable. Staff are very friendly and facilities are great. Location is ideal between West Hakone and East Hakone.
