Really good Cuisine

During my stay at Hakone Ginyu, the dining experience was simply really good. The kaiseki dinner was a good feast, with beautifully presented dishes that included fresh ingredients like Wagu and lobster, leaving a lasting impression on my palate. Both breakfast and dinner were served in my room, allowing for an intimate dining experience. Each meal felt like a culinary journey, meticulously crafted for enjoyment.

Blissful Private Onsen

I absolutely loved my experience with the private onsen at Hakone Ginyu. Having a hot spring tub on my balcony, overlooking the stunning mountain view, was the highlight of my stay. It provided the perfect atmosphere for relaxation. The temperature was just right, making it a joy to unwind after a day of exploring. Additionally, the public onsen was equally lovely, and I appreciated having the flexibility to choose between both options.

Spacious and Well-Designed

The room I stayed in at Hakone Ginyu was both spacious and beautifully designed with dark-toned wood. I appreciated the traditional tatami mats that added to the overall ambiance. The separate lounging area offered a peaceful retreat with a amazing view that only enhanced my relaxation experience. This carefully thought-out room layout truly complemented the serene environment of the ryokan.
