This Ryokan was very nice! The onsen was very relaxing, I recommend trying the public bath even if you have a private one. The food was very traditional.

Overall we enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Dinner was served at 6pm which we initially thought was a bit early but there were so many courses it took us ages to eat! Can’t fault the amount of food and despite us both being big eaters, we couldn’t finish it all. The beds were also surprisingly comfortable and breakfast was also big. Some points for improvement given the price: (i) 3pm check in and 10am check out is one of the tightest times we’ve had across our stay (ii) not much choice for dinner time nor 30 minute private onsen (iii) the table in our room was quite damaged and could do with a repaint on the edges. Only something minor but given there was only the table and two chairs in the room to begin with, it really stood out (iv) room was smaller than expected.

The onsen and food was lovely - exactly what I was hoping for. However the combination of renovations meaning we looked out into construction, wet carpet in the corridor and walking past all the back of house operations took away from the experience.
The front desk staff and the lady who delivered the food were lovely however the other staff were very brusque - I felt like we were in trouble or a nuisance.

A small traditional ryokan that is so full of charms! Easy walking distance from station. Room is more spacious than expected. Kaiseiki dinner and breakfast are superb! Staff are really nice and helpful. Maybe not the best but definitely one of the loveliest ryokan experiences I've had. Thank you.

It was so near to Hakone Yumoto station, which is very convenient for us. Other than having some small shops nearby, the dinner and breakfast spread served were quite a feast. Like it that there is a variety of onsen baths there, both outdoor and indoor. Great service as well.

I like the traditional dining and service but building is too old and dark such as a ghost house.

This ryokan is in a 100 year old building! Staff and service was amazing and the food was presented like works of art, tapas style.

This is a very traditional ryokan and although the property is old, they give you a unique experience that you can only get at these kind of place. Staff were very nice and helpful, the room was spacious and the view from the bathroom was just stunning (I love my private onsen), foods were great, its very healthy and special. The area around the ryokan was beautiful, there are gift shops if you walk towards the train station. My only complain was the AC, it was an old AC so it made so much noises that kept me up all night (I’m a light sleeper). The ryokan itself is only 6 minutes walking from train station. I’d recommend this place to anyone wants to try a unique experience of ryokan.

Great location. Walking distance from Hakone-Yumoto station. Food was good and served beautifully. Hot springs were great. We had a private bath time but the communal baths were even better and not crowded at all.

The hotel is at the heart of Hakone. We expected good services at the hotel. The front desk can speak English well, which makes the first impression good. The lady who is responsible for the room is very nice and responsible to our requests. We really appreciated that. A few things can be better: 1/ extra towels require extra charges, which is the first time we experienced for staying in hotels; 2/ the breakfast is good while the dinner is average. The dinner has good variety but seems not very fresh; 3/ run out of tissues; 4/ some insects in the room; 5/ room was not cleaned after the first day of the stay. Used towels and garbage is still there.

The room we stayed in was amazing. Beautiful views over the river and through the trees. Very spacious with a wonderful small onsen in the room. The food was varied coming in three courses. The futons for sleeping were very comfortable. Overall very pleased. Quite expensive but worth it. A warning though is that hotels.com no longer gives a free night for every 10 stays, now it is more like 40 nights!!

We booked a room with private onsen, which is a great decision because the public one is very small and does not have much view. The best part of the hotel is the dining experience! Everything was delicious and it was a lot food! Staff working at the front desk speak fluent English and was very helpful with tips in visiting the Hakone area. Overall, great experience and hope we can stay again.

Overall we were disappointed with the hotel. The main reason we chose this hotel was for the half board service (in room dinner, breakfast, and onsen facility). We were highly disappointed with the in room dinner for poor quality and limited varieties of the foods. The breakfast was better. The onsen facility was too small. Our room size is good. But our son’s room is small and old, and the air conditioner is not working. Overall we were disappointed and will not come back to this hotel.

Our biggest complaint is the insufficient AC. It was just too hot for us to enjoy our stay and dinning.

A very traditional Japanese hotel with local meals provided. The onsen’s is a bit small and the room’s not super clean so that’s the downside. But the staff is super friendly and nice, the most friendly staff I’ve met I can say.

A beautiful and traditional Japanese ryokan in a wonderful area. You can take the local buses to a variety of historic hiking trails and the nearby Hakone shrine on the lake. The rooms at Yaeikan were clean and nice. The hot baths were small but satisfactory, one of the baths has a very nice outdoor pool. Men and women's baths are separated, and switch off once a day so that the opposite gender can experience the amenities of the other bath.
There is traditional kaiseke dinner and breakfast included, although we had a bad service experience. We were only 5 minutes late for dinner (it was raining and we were rushing back from our hike) but the dinner service staff was visibly upset, which we can understand because it is rude to not be punctual in Japan. However, she spent about 10 minutes reprimanding us for being late in Japanese (at first which we could not understand because we don't speak Japanese) and then struggled to use Google translate in order to continue reprimanding us. It gave us a very bad start to the meal, and she had to be in and out of the room for the next hour in order to serve the multi-course meal, which made things awkward and very unenjoyable for all involved. In addition, she rushed our meal—she was expecting us to finish a near 8-course meal in 45 minutee. Unfortunately this was the experience that came to define our stay here. I would love to return to Hakone, but we will try another ryokan.

Super close to the train station. The staff were so sweet. We absolutely loved our stay. Food was amazing, views immaculate. The onsens were very nice too. The only thing, which is more for me, but I would have liked an extra pillow.
Outside the Ryokan, many many shops and bus stop nearby to take you to lake Ashi

The room is big but dark, and the meals are below average. The cp rate is low compared to the price.

The location is within 15 walk from the station, very easy to access. Once you enter the hotel, you can feel it is a traditional style one which I love it. The osen is not big but definitely good enough. Also, because it is a small property, you won’t need to share the osen with too many people. The food are great and staff are very nice.

One of the most memorable experiences we've had! The staff are some of the nicest people we've met in Japan and the food is very artfully made. Also, the onsen was very quiet and relaxing, the perfect recovery to all the walking done in Tokyo. Just a note to make: you pay with cash only at check out, so be prepared upon leaving.

The staff here are incredible. The private onsen was a dream come true. If you are looking for a ryokan, this is it!
5.0
Being my first time in Hakone (and Japan), my attendant was amazingly sweet, friendly, helpful, attentive and patient while I was figuring out how the Ryokan worked. She even taught me how to wear a Humana. The food was amazing, I recommend adding the meals to the room. All the onsens were awesome and relaxing. Private (non-room) one you’re allowed a 30min bath per night say I believe. Two public baths switch at night for men/women so you can try both. 10min walk from the train/bus station.
The only downside is that it’s a little further away from the other Hakone attractions if you’re there for that. It didn’t bother me as I was there mainly to experience the Ryokan and hot spring bath.
I would happily stay there again in a heartbeat and highly recommend it if you’re looking for a more traditional Ryokan/Onsen experience.
