Outstandingly pleasant hotel and spa - and now one of our favourite hotels anywhere! So relaxing and hospitable. Nagisa, our meal host, was so lovely and helpful - a real standout. The whole team did a great job and made sure we had a fantastic stay.
Excellent service and attention to detail. Fantastic views and delicious customised menus. Peaceful, clean and comfortable rooms with lots of amenities. A pleasure to stay here.
Incredible attention to detail and service. Our room was impeccable and has all of the amenities you would need and want. Most of all, it was our sanctuary during a busy honeymoon trip - reminding us to slow down, sip tea, and take in the scenery - we only wish we could’ve stayed longer. Thank you to Ali for hosting us and for our special personalised honeymoon card!
My husband and I are both vegetarians, and the chef was able to make delicious vegetarian meals for us. The dinner we had was one of the best of our time in Japan. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. The room and private onsen were relaxing, and we enjoyed the beautiful scenery. The staff went above and beyond by providing us a ride to the Open Air Museum and then to the train station. We had an incredible time and would very highly recommend staying here!!
Had a wonderful stay here. Wide selection of amenities available that encompasses everything you would need. Hotel staff were all very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend staying here

This was a beautiful stay in a lovely ryokan. Service was amazing, the views were beautiful and the traditional Japanese meals a highlight. I only wish I could go back for a longer stay.
We had an amazing stay at Byakudan. All the staff are friendly and helpful, food delicious, shuttle convenient, and the private onsen is DIVINE! It’s so relaxing with serene forest in front of you. It will definitely be our go to place whenever we go back to Hakone in the future.
My friend and I both experienced best service from the staff from the beginning we stepped in. The food are Michelin the onsen bath is top notch. Definitely recommend!
Staying here was such a treat! Breakfast and dinner was a super fun and delicious experience! Wish we stayed for 2 nights instead of one! The hot spring was enjoyable and it almost felt like we were the only ones in the hotel depending on the times we walked around. Would definitely consider staying here again!
Stayed with the en-suite private onsen. The wonderful staff picked us up at Kowakidani station and then drove us to a testsurant where we could hang out until check in.
The staff was very friendly and welcoming. I enjoyed the welcome drinks and snack and the kaiseki dinner. Our room had a private onsen and it was very clean and had all of the amenities you could ever need. Would definitely recommend staying for at least two nights, we wished we could have stayed longer!
From the moment you step in, you feel like a VIP. They treated us with the best service and the stay was just overall very very comfortable. It was the best experience with a private onsen. So many things are provided to you to make your stay comfortable and special.
Amazing private hot spring experience. The staff were super nice and the shuttle service is indispensable. Hakone bus system was unreliable but the hotel staff kindly picked us up and dropped us off at various locations throughout our stay. We really appreciated the kindness shown to us during our stay.
In one word…stunning. An experience not to be missed. I don’t know where to begin with my praise-the staff, the facilities or the food? All impeccable. The staff made us feel like their most special and honored guest anticipating every need. The facilities are amazing. Room was beautiful as was the view of the mountains. Finally the food. Wow. The most delicious, delicately prepared food. A true experience. I bravely ate sashimi for the first time and enjoyed the pen shell! All dishes were explained in great detail and lovingly prepared. This property was a lucky find for us and I recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful ryokan experience
