Hakone Ashinoko Hanaori
8,9/10 Excellent - Based on 2 reviews
Throughout the seasons, Hakone Ashinoko Hanaori reveals itself as a bespoke escape in a natural setting, enveloped by the serenity of Lake Ashi and the surrounding mountains. This ryokan in Hakone enchants with its hot springs and sauna, offering absolute relaxation facing sublime panoramas. The panoramic terrace, conducive to contemplation, reflects the balance between modernity and Japanese tradition, while inviting relaxation in a soothing and harmonious setting.
Varied and welcoming, the rooms reveal a warm universe in natural tones. Some offer the privilege of an open-air bath to enjoy a moment of intimacy under the stars or facing the dawn. Amenities such as a flat-screen TV and an electric kettle provide contemporary comfort, while balconies open to the lake or mountain enhance the stay. Accessibility for all is also a priority, with options specifically designed for people with reduced mobility.
Adorned with fine flavors, the on-site restaurant tables celebrate the richness of Japanese cuisine, excelling in creativity and presentation. The refined setting matches the delicate dishes, consolidating the unique character of this accommodation. To diversify culinary pleasures, the surroundings offer a palette of authentic restaurants accessible within minutes. This symbiosis between gastronomy and landscape transforms each meal into a memorable experience in the heart of Kanagawa Prefecture.
Japanese Authenticity Rating
6/10 Very modern, this ryokan retains some Japanese touches such as onsen with views and a refined cuisine but overall lacks authenticity in architecture and rooms. Traditional elements are present but not always immersive. The experience offered is pleasant, although more focused on modern comfort than classic Japanese codes.
