1] Location, if you enjoy remote this is where you want to book otherwise book elsewhere.||2] Atmosphere, of the hotel is quiet & can with a goo||3] Room, was clean & large 73 sq/m with a lot of good quality personal amenities. Very comfortable with no-one stepping on top of the other, however its layout not its furnishings are somewhat dated so it is wasted space and could be more functional. ||4] Value, if it weren't for the Onsen being included in the cost, the value for the cost would probably be too high. The Onsen makes up for the age & sparsity of the hotel. ||5] Staff, outstanding! Very welcoming, hospitable & accommodating.||6] Cleanliness, rooms, lobby, dining area, Onsen, etc., all very clean!||7] Noise Level, incredibly quiet! No road noise, no rowdy guests, etc., A great getaway!||8] Service, great staff = great service (bullet point 5 above). Free shuttle service to/from Odawara train station, however if you get car sick easily definitely don't use the shuttle service take the train.||9] Amenities, outstanding! Great in room amenities, Onsen was amazing, Dining - definitely purchase the breakfast pack - wonderful variety of food & great taste. On a side note, the only dinner option we ate was the LO option and it was slightly disappointing. There are also Japanese and French restaurants options for dinner but we ate some great Japanese food prior to coming to Hakone so opted to pass on this option and the French option didn't raise our interest.||||Overall, highly recommend at least one visit if you're into remote and isolated. If you're a snacker, pick up snacks before getting to the hotel because there is no easily walkable convenience stores or restaurants.
