This place was more than expected! The Onsen experience was superb and the staff was 100% accommodating, friendly, and English language friendly. The buffet dinner and breakfast option was delicious including snow crab at both meals (as of this review). The connecting public / unisex Onsen was also included which was a bonus as we could enjoy themed spas. If you are looking for your first Hakone Onsen resort, I highly recommend this spot. Rooms were huge and all inclusive experience. Smiles all around.

The staffs are well-trained and welcoming. Instructions to the hotel is also quite clear. Food is really delicious and offer a wide range of selections. The only thing is that during our stay, maybe because the room is also right next to the hallway, there were weird noises like people stepping in and out. It's an overall nice experience disregarding the noise part.
