"The room was great, and the front desk staff were very attentive and detailed. The hotel's overall environment is quite good, and the transportation is also convenient, making it suitable for friends visiting Hakone for the first time. The hotel facilities are complete, and the lounge on the second floor is open 24 hours. You can go there to have some drinks and chat, and it's all free."

"A great onsen hotel, especially the infinity onsen on the 5th floor. Both dinner and breakfast were buffet-style and quite delicious. You can also have unlimited cold drinks."

"The facilities are complete, hygiene is spotless, and the environment is quiet and peaceful. The staff are friendly and the experience was very comfortable. Highly recommend for families or friends looking to relax and unwind."

"The onsen resort is great. They have huge public bath that you won’t feel congested. Resort provides free yukata for rental, free snack bar at the lobby, free noodles for supper, free ice-cream and buns as tea break."

"A good hotel. Staff are helpful. The spring pool facility is basic, but it is good. Had breakfast and dinner there, highly recommended!"

"Our trip to Hakone was incredibly lucky, with beautiful clear weather, and staying at the Yoshike Ryokan exceeded our expectations, leaving us very satisfied. The most impressive feature of the ryokan is its vast, strolling garden. Spanning a large area, the garden is exquisitely designed with ponds, small bridges, lush trees, and moss. Strolling through the courtyard at leisure, with the sound of flowing water and abundant greenery, every step reveals a new beautiful view. The atmosphere is truly captivating, and you could easily spend a long time just exploring the garden. The view of the garden from our room was also delightful. I must give a special shout-out to a staff member with a ********* accent. Her service was gentle and incredibly patient. She was meticulous and thoughtful in her communication, diligently answering all our questions, and her demeanor was humble and courteous, adding a lot of warmth to our trip. Overall, the staff at the ryokan are of a very high standard, treating guests with kindness and grace. Many online reviews mentioned that the facilities are old, but we honestly didn't feel that way during our stay. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the entire ryokan environment was very quiet, far from the hustle and bustle, making it perfect for relaxation. We didn't opt for the kaiseki meal at the ryokan this time, so we can't comment on it. This old ryokan perfectly captures the serene ambiance of traditional Japan. After soaking in the hot springs and strolling through the garden, both body and mind felt completely soothed. If I ever come back to Hakone, I would gladly choose to stay here again. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys peaceful gardens."

"Facilities: This onsen ryokan is conveniently located right next to Odawara Station, making it incredibly easy to visit Hakone. You can even do a day trip there using just the Hakone Free Pass. Cleanliness: Spotlessly clean. Environment: The views from the higher floors are fantastic, offering a distant view of the ocean. Service: The buffet breakfast was exceptionally generous and delicious – highly recommended!"

"The location is excellent, making it very convenient for getting around. There's a direct shuttle bus from Odawara Station to the hotel. The Pirate Ship and ropeway are just a five-minute walk away. The hotel staff are very enthusiastic. Although the facilities are a bit dated, the atmosphere is very cozy. The buffet dinner, included in the room rate, is extensive and offers a variety of drinks. However, the menu is pretty much the same every day, so after three days, it can get a bit repetitive."

"It was pretty good, mostly fine, but there's no dinner available in the evenings, so you have to go out to eat."
