Name: Hakone Hoshino Akari
Rating: 3.7

Overview

Residing in Sengokuhara and wrapped in the immense nature of Hakone is a rejuvenating inn that has a stunning view of a scenery that changes with the four seasons.

As soon as you pass through the entrance, you can feel your heart loosen from the start of your journey in a lounge with hearth.

All rooms have outdoor hot springs and terrace. The impressive view of Mt. Hakone and Italian pond are one of the prides of this inn. Bathtubs are either shigaraki pottery or Japanese cypress. On top of that guests may enjoy 2 of the 17 baths: the hot spring of beauty in the rooms and the natural hot springs in the public spa.

After bathing in the public spa, one way to spend your time is at the library. With chairs and foot spa on the spacious rooftop sky terrace, one may start by enjoying a panoramic view of Mother Nature and even enjoy relaxing with a monopoly on the view of the nights sky full of starlight.

Starting with the stone-grilled Hakone Seiroku beef, meals are a creative Japanese kaiseki that use the bounty of the sea reeled in from Sagami Bay. Breakfast is a line-up of specialty masterpieces with many different dried dishes, Yuba tofu, handmade tofu, and others to choose from. Won't you try to drown in this gentle and warm hospitality to your heart's content?

Read more we are from Hong Kong. we understand this is the reason why the hotel offered a Mandarin speaking Chinese to help serve us. However, this is also an issue to us as we have to speak to her in mandarin all the way, which we lost the 'feel' of getting into the Japanese world. And most importantly, we would like to obtain cultural exchanges in japan, and that's the reason we travel. But now, we are treated as a mainland Chinese. this is not a complain, but simply an opinion of this trip.

Read more 何のために事前予約したのかわからず、前日の夜に電話が来て事後説明。事前に頼んでたことも忘れられ、夕食時には事前に説明もなく勝手に食事を選ばれ、更においしくない。チェックアウト時にも何の謝罪も無し。宿の顔である入り口そばに喫煙所。いいところが一つも無い。安い旅館なら我慢もできるが、そこそこの値段を取ってる自覚なし。二度と行かない。以上。

I don't know what I pre-booked for, I got a phone call on the night before and I explained it later. I forgot what I asked in advance, and at dinner I did not explain in advance and I chose the meal myself without further explanation. No apologies at the time of check out. A smoking area near the entrance that is the face of the hotel. There is no good point. You can endure a cheap inn, but you are not aware that you are taking a reasonable price. I will never go there again. that's all.
