游心亭旅馆 (Yushintei)

星级评定以住宿信息（酒店提供的服务及设施等）综合因素为准，仅供参考

The location is not central; it’s a long walk uphill from the rail station. The room onsen is cool, but don’t go in the winter time if you want to fully enjoy it. However, there is a shared onsen that is indoor. The building is old and creepy; it’s great if you’re not afraid of ghosts. The traditional dinner is okay, but I’m not sure it’s worth the add on price.

We had a wonderful stay at Yushintei. The traditional Japanese style rooms were absolutely great, spacious, comfortable, and provided an authentic experience. A major highlight was the natural hot spring spa (onsen), which was a fantastic addition to unwind after a long day of walking. The entire hotel was exceptionally nice and clean throughout. Just keep in mind that the local shops and other eateries require a minimum 10-15 minute walk from the property.

This was a great stay, helpful and friendly staff! Nice location!

Brilliant hotel with the most friendly and helpful staff you could wish for, they really made the whole experience! Great room but would only recommend 1 night as it's not the most comfortable. Loved having our own Onsen. Located slightly out of town but in a lovely area.

There are some big “mega hotels” in the area, but I think staying in one of these would be missing the point of staying in Hakone. Yushintei instead captures the essence of the area. With its private onsens (small, medium and large) and spacious rooms with toki baths, Yushintei makes for a fantastically relaxing stay. The staff were wonderful - they were polite, helpful and very accommodating. The hotel is walkable to and from Hakone-Yamumoto station, but the K bus also runs conveniently close for when you have luggage. One word of caution, if you’re catching an early Shinkansen upon departure from Odawara, don’t rely on an advance Uber booking to get you to the train station. Ours was a no-show at 0535 and none of the local hotels could get any of the local taxi companies to come and pick us up. Instead, we luckily managed to get a taxi via the “Go” app as we ran to the train station. So, best either avoid taxi or make sure you’re already at the train station so you can fall back on the train (the first train of the day would still be cutting it close for the early Hikari Shinkansen!)

Spacious and clean

This place is easily the best place we stayed at during our Japan trip, and possibly the best overall experience I've had in a one-night stay ever. You have your own onsen in the room, along with two private onsens in the hotel (free, no reservations required to use). The traditional room is large for Japanese hotel standards, the hotel is a 15-minute walk to Hakone station, and the staff have mind-blowing hospitality! Highly recommend

The hosts makes this entire stay. Very welcoming and friendly. Shoes are placed out in front in the morning before you leave, and the host walks you through the entire place to show you around. I highly recommend this place for couples or small groups. Warning: beds are traditional and on the floor so pretty hard. Shared shower room could be hard if staying multiple nights. We stayed one night so did not effect us as much. Also, everything in the area is a walk! keep this in mind when looking for food or things to do.

Room was beautiful and the staff were extremely polite and welcoming.

Wonderful experience, excellent for couples. Please, take the time to learn some japanese and express your gratitude to the hosts.
