This place has a lot of character and was a great experience. We didn’t book the Irori dinner, which I regretted very much. It’s a hostel, not a hotel, so as expected it was a bit spartan. However, the main sitting area was lovely and interesting and the staff were top notch - warm and accommodating. If you are looking for character and tradition over modern comforts, you will enjoy your stay very much. It’s also just a short walk to Gora station where you can hop on the cable car and ropeway as well as catch the train to Hakone-Yumoto. A word of caution that the automated calendar reminder may not map you to the right place. Ensure you are navigating to a location near Gora so you don’t end up lost and wandering in the pouring rain, kept warm only by the blazing glares of your rage-filled family.

Family friendly, super clean. Staff helpful and friendly. We took the Irori bbq souper and it was highly recomended. Great stay

A hostel provides family styles stay.

I had a great one night stay here. The staff are very welcoming and clearly enjoy working there and interacting with guests. The room is exactly as described, and it was very dark at night too. The walls are very thin and sound travels easily especially from the room below, so it’s better to think of it as a dorm rather than a completely separate room. I couldn’t join the Irori dinner as I arrived too late, but it was starting just as I was arriving, and it looked like a cosy experience connecting with other travellers. The hostel had a sociable, but relaxed, vibe. The kitchen was very well equipped too. The location was quite easy to get to, a bus ride from Hakone station and walkable from Gora station. I’d be happy to stay again if I’m back in Hakone.

The staff were brilliant and very welcoming especially to my two children, the place was beautiful, the evening meal was lovely and very unique. We really enjoyed our 1 night stay.

The staff were all really nice and helpful. Our room was very clean, with an incredibly comfortable bed. The bar has a lot of options. They also offer a shared dinner, up to 10 people per night, and that was a great experience with a great group of people. We would stay here again in the future!

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Loved the experience and close to the stations.

YES!!
