Onsen Guest House Tsutaya Reviews

The room was cleaned, and the service was adequate! Overall, a unique traditional guesthouse experience 👍

We stayed in the traditional private room which was large and comfortable. The onsen was lovely and very clean. The kitchen is open for guests to use and well equipped. The hotel is located in quite a secluded area with limited amenities/dining options. There’s a 7-11 and Lawson if you really can’t find a restaurant that’s opened. There’s also a lot of stairs which might be challenging if you have heavy luggages.

Good!!

The public space is large, the female room is quite small, and there is a safe next to the bed. The only bad thing about the location is that the transportation is not very convenient. Sometimes it takes a long time to wait for the bus for 20 minutes. The luggage needs to be carried up the stairs. If it is too heavy, it is really necessary to consider it. Fortunately, the boss will help to carry it up when checking out.

The rooms are comfortable and spacious, with little traffic. When walking down to the lobby, you have to walk down several high steps. I have a fairly heavy bag. But the hotel staff were helpful. Please help carry the bag. The onsen room is beautiful, both indoor and outdoor. convenient

The location is a bit remote. If you take the tram, you need to walk quite far. It is close to the bus station. There is a small safe at the head of the bed. The bed is a wooden capsule with a wood smell. The public area is good. There is a self-service kitchen with complete tableware and many small appliances. You can make your own coffee, tea and other beverages. There is a public large refrigerator and a small open-air hot spring. The overall cost performance is high

It may have been set up with inbound tourists in mind, but there are both spacious rooms and rooms with upper and lower bunk beds that can reduce the accommodation fee, which is somewhat unusual for a hotel in Hakone. , I feel grateful. The common space was large and nice. The quality of the hot springs was also very good, but as others have pointed out, there is no washing area in the open-air bath, which I would like to see improved. Also, there is a delicious ramen shop nearby and a photo shop with history.

Very good 👍👍

This is a lovely place, right over the river, and our private room was very spacious and comfortable. The sound of the river running outside was very soothing. The double bed was large and comfy, and so was the sofa! The photos were very accurate. The staff were friendly, and had no problem with us leaving our bags earlier in the day prior to our check in. The room had a good fridge, and the reception sells some easy food options (cup noodles etc) and sake/beer/soda. We used the washing facilities (coin op dryer and washer) and enjoyed the onsen whilst our clothes dried! The onsen were fine, clean and hot. The communal facilities were very pleasant and homely, and we successfully cooked microwave curries, rice and naan! We chatted with a lady staying in a shared room and she was very positive about it. The location was a little remote from the attractions we wanted to visit. However the public transport was excellent - the bus stop was right outside and the buses were frequent. It was around a 5-10min walk to the train station, with a pretty steep climb up to the platform. But we passed a Lawson which was convenient! I'd recommend for couples/friends and solo travellers, and would happily stay again.

I think this is a backpackers but I’m not sure. I was the oldest guest there in my own room. My room was very comfortable overlooking a small gorge. The sound of the flowing water was wonderful. The common room/ kitchen/dining room was excellent. I enjoyed the onsen - the outside onsen was hotter. Staff were very accommodating! They booked my taxi and helped take my luggage up the stairs. This is a great place for solo travellers without much luggage.

I thought hotels and inns in Hakone were expensive, but I was able to find a reasonably priced inn and guesthouse. Even if you use public transportation, it is convenient because it is close to the bus stop. Convenience stores are also within walking distance. I wasn't familiar with the area, so I later found out that there are frequent buses along National Route 1, which was great for me since I don't have a car. Kagodoko is a so-called capsule hotel style, and the entrance is accessed with a security key. I was tired so I fell asleep, but the sound of this door opening and closing can be quite loud, so if you're interested, you might be concerned. There is 1 USB, 2 sockets, and a small security box in the room. People with large luggage such as suitcases seemed to leave it in the aisle. Other than sleeping in my own room, the basket floor was enough for me to take a bath and relax in the shared lounge and kitchen. Perhaps because we entered the hot springs early (6:00-7:00, 18:00-19:00), the hot springs were almost reserved for private use.The outdoor baths seemed to be more popular with foreigners, but the indoor baths were also nice and relaxing. It was warm in the morning and at night. The kitchen was self-service, and the staff cleaned and tidyed up frequently, making it a pleasant experience to use. I made coffee in the mill every day and had a relaxing time. The receptionist was kind and helpful. The interior design is Japanese-style, which would appeal to foreign tourists, and the people staying there were of various nationalities, making it feel like I was in a foreign country, which was refreshing. If you're used to staying in a hostel, it's natural to bring most things with you, but here they provided towels, toiletries, and drinks, so all you need is a toothbrush and a loungewear. That's enough. it was very helpful.
