Our stay at Gora Hanaougi was incredible; unforgettable. The room and view was beautiful and serene and our hostess was so kind and courteous; she was very sweet. My only regret is only booking 1 night there! Absolutely would recommend.

Best decision you will make!
This was one of, if not THE, most amazing hotel experiences I have ever had. The service was EXCELLENT. We received a lot of individualized attention (I.e., we were assigned a hotel staff member who took care of us the entire stay, the staff greeted us and escorted us to breakfast and dinner every meal). Overall, the staff was SO hospitable, kind, friendly, and accommodating. We were sad to go. We are a couple on our honeymoon in Japan. So we decided to splurge on the nicest hotel suite. Worth. Every. Penny. The room was gorgeous. The private onsen and balcony were amazing. The yukata, toe socks, bathrobes, PJs, tea and cakes, and complimentary minibar were much appreciated. The room was so convenient and well designed—it made me wish we had a tatami room in our home. My only note (and this is not a criticism of the hotel), I would perhaps do meals a la carte. There was a bit too much food for me personally and I did not want to be rude by not finishing. Also, as an American, I am not accustomed to Japanese breakfast foods, so it was a bit of an…adjustment. I can also be a bit picky with seafood, so I may have preferred ordering a la carte. But these are all personal preferences. Just thought I would share. We would come again and again. You will not regret staying here—it is an amazing once-in-a-lifetime hotel experience!

From the moment we arrived at Gora Hanougi to the time we were shown to our room, we felt very well taken care of. Their staff show great care in their customer service and hospitality to ensure you feel welcomed for your stay. The kaiseki meals provided are beautifully plated and expertly prepared to fill your tummy with the most yummy Japanese selection of dishes. It made for a magical one night stay for us!

Coming to Gora Hanougi was a highlight of our visit to Japan. We had a room with a private onsen overlooking a forested mountain valley. Tranquil and restorative. The traditional dinner and breakfast were exceptional and served with attention to detail and grace. Though Fuji San was shrouded in clouds during our visit, I would recommend Gora Hanoungi to travelers to Hakone looking to experience a traditional Japanese Inn (included futons)

The property was beautiful and the staff were lovely with great service. The private onsen was amazing. The food was probably a little challenging for our palate but we appreciate that it was traditional Japanese haute cuisine. My only gripe was that my daughter was refused without payment an additional Orange juice for breakfast even though she didn’t drink coffee or tea which were all offered inclusive to me as well as juice. When you’re paying this much for a night’s accommodation that seemed a bit rude to us. Overall lovely experience but very expensive for what you get.

Exceptional experience for a special occasion
We had an amazing time here. It's something we're not going to forget. The staff really roll out the red carpet for you the entire time, and their dedication and efficiency is impressive. The room was lovely, with a suit of high-quality ammeneties. The dinner and breakfast courses were huge. Multi-stage set meal that were varied but incredibly delicious. I wouldn't recommend this if you are a fussy eater, as though there are some safe options, most of it is quite different for a western pallet. Your stay here will be relatively regimented, so if you wanted to explore everything Hakone has to offer, it may not be for you. That being said, the location is right next to the cablecar station, so after checkout you can easily get to the top of Hakone mountain and do some day exploration. My partner is a vegetarian, which they did warn us they couldn't accommodate. We managed to workaround it by swapping certain dishes and items (and my partner being more flexible with their vegetarianism), but this did require a lot of trying to identify what certain things were (they supplied a menu, but it wasn't always clear what was infront of you). This is my only critique, everything else was an incredible experience. One I would recommend if you have the extra money and want to make a stay in beautiful Hakone that much more special.

This is the best hotel I've ever stayed at. The check-in process was smooth and relaxed. A staff member offered us drinks and a snack, and while we enjoyed them, they handled our check-in and brought our luggage to the room. This was a pleasant contrast to other hotels where you have to wait in line to check in. Both dinner and breakfast were incredibly delicious. Since we stayed for two nights, we enjoyed two dinners and two breakfasts, and the high-quality meals offered different varieties each day. Our server, Monica, was very helpful throughout our stay. She asked about our plans for the day and arranged for the hotel shuttle to take us to our first sightseeing destination. The room was clean and tidy, with the fridge stocked with complimentary drinks. The onsen on the balcony was outdoor but private, allowing us to relax and take in the early morning beauty of Hakone. I would rate this hotel 10 stars.

What an amazing experience we just had. Two nights in a beautiful Japanese room with private onsen bath. The service was fantastic, Ayami-san in particular was so welcoming, kind and helpful. We felt like royalty. The staff all went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and provide delicious traditional breakfast and dinner. They even provided a free shuttle service to the station which was extremely helpful. We will definitely stay again if we get chance! (:
