Yoshiike Ryokan

The environment is quite nice, and the Japanese-style rooms are good too. The garden is very spacious, and there's a hot spring. The transportation right outside is also very convenient, with direct routes to tourist attractions.

Our trip to Hakone was incredibly lucky, with beautiful clear weather, and staying at the Yoshike Ryokan exceeded our expectations, leaving us very satisfied. The most impressive feature of the ryokan is its vast, strolling garden. Spanning a large area, the garden is exquisitely designed with ponds, small bridges, lush trees, and moss. Strolling through the courtyard at leisure, with the sound of flowing water and abundant greenery, every step reveals a new beautiful view. The atmosphere is truly captivating, and you could easily spend a long time just exploring the garden. The view of the garden from our room was also delightful. I must give a special shout-out to a staff member with a ********* accent. Her service was gentle and incredibly patient. She was meticulous and thoughtful in her communication, diligently answering all our questions, and her demeanor was humble and courteous, adding a lot of warmth to our trip. Overall, the staff at the ryokan are of a very high standard, treating guests with kindness and grace. Many online reviews mentioned that the facilities are old, but we honestly didn't feel that way during our stay. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the entire ryokan environment was very quiet, far from the hustle and bustle, making it perfect for relaxation. We didn't opt for the kaiseki meal at the ryokan this time, so we can't comment on it. This old ryokan perfectly captures the serene ambiance of traditional Japan. After soaking in the hot springs and strolling through the garden, both body and mind felt completely soothed. If I ever come back to Hakone, I would gladly choose to stay here again. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys peaceful gardens.

The environment is superb, and the hot springs are also great with not too many people. We booked dinner and breakfast, and the food was fresh and exquisite. The weather was lovely, and there were many unique general stores nearby.

The room was spacious, and the Japanese garden was beautiful. Even though it was summer and I couldn't see cherry blossoms or autumn leaves, the lush trees and purple agapanthus flowers were all lovely. The meals and hot springs were great, and the location was very convenient.

Excellent food and service, but there were mosquitoes in the room.

Absolutely amazing! The huge courtyard is stunning, the room is comfortable, and the service is attentive. There weren't many people, so I practically had the public hot spring all to myself. Oh, if only I could stay here for half a year or a year!

Facilities: As expected from a century-old garden, it's a truly exquisite Japanese style. The room even has a private hot spring, and it's incredibly clean! A germaphobe's dream! Hygiene: Extremely clean, and the yukata (robe) was very comfortable. Don't even get me started on the food – it was beyond amazing, with two different meals a day. The service was superb too! Environment: Very comfortable and quiet. I especially loved the garden; I imagine it would be even more beautiful during autumn when the maple leaves change. Service: Excellent! The front desk staff even remembered me by face.
