True to tradition and in perfect harmony with nature, this ryokan in Hakone embodies the spirit of timeless Japan.

With its sauna, privatizable open-air baths, and the option of in-room massages, each guest is invited to reconnect with themselves in a peaceful and authentic environment.
Nobility and elegance characterize the rooms at Yumoto Fujiya Hotel. Whether they are of traditional Japanese style with tatami mats and futons or fusion-inspired combining modernity and Japanese charm, they are all designed to offer comfort and serenity. The large bay windows reveal splendid panoramas of the surrounding landscapes, while modern amenities, such as flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi, ensure a stay without compromise between tradition and modernity.
Flavors and refinement are invited in the ryokan’s restaurants. From authentic Japanese delights served at the Katsura restaurant to the romantic French cuisine of Vanvert, and the Chinese specialties of Tokaro, each meal becomes a culinary journey. The on-site cafes and pubs complete the offer with drinks and moments of conviviality. For the more curious, the surroundings of Hakone are also full of gastronomic addresses to discover.
Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity
7.5/10 Freshly renovated, this ryokan harmoniously blends tradition and modernity, with baths offering peaceful views. The rooms incorporate authentic Japanese elements, but some modern touches dominate. The cuisine, although diverse, sometimes lacks the typical refinement of a kaiseki. Overall, a relaxing experience with authentic charm.
