"This was our third time staying at Hakone Gora KARAKU, and it’s still one of our favorite places in Hakone. The location is super convenient—just a short walk from Gora Station. We booked a room with a semi-open private onsen tub, which my wife really enjoyed. I spent more time in the public baths with sauna and steam (they switch each night). It was never crowded, so it felt peaceful and relaxing. The lounge was fine—coffee was delicious, but snacks were pretty limited. Our stay included Japanese-style breakfast and kaiseki dinner both nights. The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully plated, and served at a nice, relaxed pace. The staff were friendly, professional, and helpful—exactly what you’d expect from great Japanese hospitality. We keep coming back because the mix of comfort, great food, relaxing baths, and welcoming service is hard to beat. Already looking forward to the next trip!"

"Beds were comfortable"

"Very clean and very comfortable. Great for tourist who don’t speak Japanese. A little difficult to find it and the walk from the station was a bit longer than expected but still good!"

"Very friendly"

"Elegant hotel."

"Excellent accommodation and super friendly staff."

"Great spot. Need to do at least two nights"

"The staff are out of this world amazing! So nice and accommodating."

"The room was spacious (family of 4 with 2 teenagers) and clean. The beds were big but a tiny bit hard. The breakfast buffet was excellent with extensive choices both Japanese and enough western food options for our picky family :). I enjoyed the Onsen a few times and the location was perfect, just a 3 minute walk from Gora Station with direct access to the Hokane-Tozan railway and Cable Car (to ropeway). I would recommend this to all my friends visiting this area in the future. "
