Onsen Guesthouse HAKONE TENT

We wanted a place with onsen and tatami and therefore landed to this place. The best part is it's location which is near Gora Station - to me it's like a centre point where you could take the train to Hakone-Yumoto or take the cable car and continue your sightseeing journey to Owakudani via the ropeway. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and there's a nice dining bar behind the reception which looks cosy and inviting, a great placed to chill and make friends. There's shared kitchen and free coffee & tea.

I had a splendid stay in Hakone Tent. Having my own room was a blessing and I loved the little touches with the lantern lighting & little window teasing a sneak peek of the mountains. The 2 private onsens were why I chose this place. They are tattoo friendly as someone who is heavily tattooed which I highly appreciate. I had the pleasure of trying the eggplant & cheese pizza with a side of Ume plum wine for dinner and it was so delicious. I would love to visit again sometime in the future if I visit Hakone.

We loved the accommodation, family of 4 sharing a room. Felt very authentic. Staff were lovely. Nice bar area, limited menu but tasty, good choice for drinks. They offered a natural onset which we used and enjoyed. Location was good, just a few minutes walk from the station. Shared kitchen and bathroom facilities, but clean and private. Recommended after a stay in Tokyo. Get the Hakone Freepass and this is an ideal start for the railway, ropeway and pirate ship cruise.

The guesthouse is perfectly located within 2 mins walking distance of the local train and cable car. The surrounding setting is pretty and inside it's cosy and the room is simple but stylish with futon bed. Despite the thin mattress we all slept really well, it was really comfy. The bar area is small and cute and the staff is very friendly. They serve dinner (but no breakfast), the food (pizza) was delicious, home-made and served one at a time as it got cooked individually. We had some great local beers as well. The onsen is a great experience is you prefer to have your privacy, very easy to book and to get a slot (even when we checked in late evening). Toilets and bathroom are shared and very clean. The other guests were respectful of quiet time and we didn't hear any noises until morning.

Omg, this is the best place I've ever stayed. The staff were so incredibly helpful and kind, and the location was perfect. When we arrived it was snowing hard, with lots of snow on the ground. Hakone Tent is up a small hill, but it is only 6 minutes from the station which we were very thankful for as we were dragging our suitcases up the icy hill. It is very convenient to get around Hakone from Hakone tent. We stayed in the apartment and the views of the hills were stunning. The room was also just beautiful. Everything was clean, warm, and homey. The onsen booking system is simple and convenient. Would go back in a heartbeat!!!
