Hotels With Pools in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan

Our stay was fantastic, this is definitely the top choice for anyone visiting Yokohama! The hotel's location is unbeatable, just a few minutes' walk to the Minato Mirai shopping area, the subway station, and the waterfront promenade. It's incredibly convenient for both transportation and sightseeing. The room was spotless and modern, the bed and pillows were super comfortable, and the view of the city/harbor was excellent, creating a truly relaxing and comfortable atmosphere. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. The breakfast selection was extensive, with both Western and Chinese options that were very much to our taste. The facilities are new, and there are plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby, allowing for a very flexible itinerary. Whether you're traveling as a couple, with family, or for business, this hotel offers great value for money. I highly recommend it to anyone planning a trip to Yokohama!

The location is excellent, very close to Sakuragicho. We could easily walk to Minatomirai 21 for a lovely evening stroll and to admire the night views. There's a massive shopping mall nearby that has absolutely everything you could need. Even the pedestrian overpasses are equipped with escalators, which is super convenient! Hotel service was impeccable; they even left two extra sets of toiletries right outside my door, which was a nice surprise, haha! I highly recommend staying here! The value for money is absolutely spot on. Plus, just a left turn out of the hotel entrance leads you to a bustling street packed with delicious local snacks!

Excellent location and fantastic views! The hotel itself feels a bit dated, and the toilet rooms don't have a spot to put your phone. Overall, though, the facilities are very well-maintained. The staff's English isn't great, but they are polite.

I originally planned to stay one night in Hakone, but after checking some guides, I realized there were so many attractions. So, I decided to book an extra night. Apparently, booking two separate nights doesn't guarantee you the same room. The front desk lady spent quite a while checking her computer to arrange a single room for me. Next time, I'll remember to book both nights at once. It might have been because of the Chinese New Year period when there are lots of guests checking in. Hakone is perfect for a one-night, two-meal stay. Since the attractions in Hakone are spread out, it's best to spend the day fully immersing yourself in sightseeing. If you get hungry at lunchtime, just grab some snacks to save time, and then enjoy the hot springs and buffet at the hotel in the morning and evening. The rooftop hot spring might use regular hot water, but it wasn't too crowded, and they had some toiletries and skincare products, so I just decided to wash up there instead of in my room.

This branded hotel is definitely different from traditional Japanese hotels. The rooms are spacious, and the lobby is grand, built with high-quality materials, exuding a sense of luxury everywhere. Breakfast offers both Western and Japanese options. The Western buffet is on the first floor, while the Japanese set meal is on the fourth floor. The overall service is excellent, and the food is decent. The Japanese restaurant is less crowded and has a more refined atmosphere, while the Western restaurant is busier but offers views of the bay and cruise ships. The location is very convenient; all nearby attractions are within walking distance. The Landmark Tower is currently under construction and won't reopen until 2028, and other museums are closed on Mondays.

The hotel boasts extremely convenient transportation, just a 10-minute walk from the subway station. It's perfectly situated in Yokohama Chinatown, offering abundant dining options with plenty of Chinese restaurants. As an established 5-star hotel, the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, and the facilities are equally upscale and impressive. They even offer services in Chinese. Plus, it's only a 5-minute stroll to the seaside and Yamashita Park. I would absolutely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Yokohama. The rooms are quite spacious, especially for Japanese standards.

The location was amazing right when you get off from Shinjuku - the amenities are nice and the staff helpful. Just note that checkout is at 10:00AM and getting a late one requires you to pay. A bit pricey, but not in comparison to other options in Hakone.

Overall, my experience staying at the hotel near Gora Station was quite good, but there are a few details to be aware of. The hotel provides a shuttle bus, but getting from Gora Station to the shuttle bus stop requires carrying luggage up and down stairs (20 steps each way) and through an underground tunnel. I wasn't sure if it was possible to walk across the street to the shuttle bus stop. The shuttle bus stop is shared by two lines, so you must check before boarding whether the bus goes to the hotel or somewhere else. The last bus departs at 4:40 PM. The first bus in the morning departs from the hotel to Gora Station at 9:28 AM, a 25-minute journey. The shuttle bus timetable is shown in the photo. I originally planned to have dinner at Gora Station at 5 PM, but since all the restaurants were closed and it was already dark, I had to take the bus included in my 2-day pass back to the hotel (take the 839 bus to Ten-yu and then walk) to eat. The hotel is on the 840 stop. However, the hotel restaurant requires advance reservations, so I ultimately chose to walk 5 minutes to Ten-yu (there's an indoor skybridge connecting the 5th floor of 138 Yunessun-mae) and eat there. Although the hotel is close to Tianyou Hotel, it's located below the road, requiring an uphill walk, and the lighting is poor at night, so I could only use my phone flashlight. The hotel staff were very welcoming and patiently answered my questions, but communication required using Google Translate. The hotel's hot spring facilities are excellent, with five pools that can comfortably accommodate 5 to 7 people. Note that you need to turn on the hot water in the shower and sink in the room yourself; instructions are given upon check-in. Overall, despite some inconveniences, the hotel's service and facilities were satisfactory.

The curtains are not completely shading in the morning. It is easy to be awakened. The sauna or swimming have to bring your own swimsuit. I forgot to bring it. So if you rent it, you need money. The clerk can communicate in English. This can also be used for bathing facilities.

Rooms with very good view only if you are staying at lvl3 & above. You would be able to see Mt Fuji from your balcony if it’s a clear weather day. Breakie was sumptuous especially egg Benedict set. Variety of drinks options available, freshly cut fruits too. Btw, they use Polar for shower essentials which satisfied me. However, if you are given rooms on lvl 1, “congratulations” 😂 you will have to inhale the drainage smell while walking through the long ales to your room if it’s far from the lift.
