Laforet Hakone Gora Yunosumika
8,4/10 Excellent - Based on 2 reviews
Radiating delicate harmony, Laforet Hakone Gora Yunosumika is set in an enchanting natural setting, between undulating mountains and soothing gardens. The architecture is an ode to Japanese elegance, combining contemporary lines and noble materials. Its hot springs, sometimes shared, sometimes private outdoors, offer a moment of serenity for the body and mind. Visitors can find absolute well-being, enhanced by attentive care and omnipresent tranquility.
Noble and soothing, the rooms celebrate the fusion of traditional Japanese style with modern comfort. Equipped with tatami corners and sometimes outdoor hot springs, they invite guests to a complete immersion in the art of Japanese living. Some offer a captivating view of the mountains, while others promise enchanting intimacy, enveloped by wood tones and simple lines imbued with delicacy.
Delighting the palate as much as the soul, the on-site restaurant offers local cuisine of rare finesse. The breakfast buffet composes a gourmet table varying between authentic Japanese flavors and international pleasures. Around the ryokan in Hakone, charming restaurants and bistros enrich the culinary experience, allowing travelers to taste the gastronomic wealth of the region, always in an atmosphere of softness and refinement.
Japanese Authenticity Rating
5.5/10 Combining a mix of modern and traditional elements, this ryokan offers a decent experience, but the integration of more authentic elements is lacking in some respects. The cuisine is carefully prepared but slightly westernized, and the baths offer a pleasant atmosphere without any distinct natural charm.
