The hotel also provides transportation to a nearby train/cable car station, the breakfast its delicous as well as the dinner...oh and the staff! super friendly and as well as in all Japan they will do their best to make your stay as comfortable as possible, they speak english if your cant speak Japanese (tho everyone should try at least the basics if you plan to travel to a foreing country) Overall our experience in Hakone was awesome and staying here was the cherry on top!

A 3-minute bus ride from Hakone Yumoto Station, GuestHouse Azito is set within a Japanese-style main building with Japanese-style rooms. It features an annex, open since March 2017. Free WiFi is available throughout the property. There is also an on-site bar, where guests can unwind and enjoy drinks and light meals.

The staff answered my various questions and tried to find solutions to suit my demands considering our language barrier. The lockers to fit my various luggages were huge and adapted to backpack travelers. The facilities were clean and confortable to use. I found the room and the capsules structure unusual but it was efficient and lovely to stay in and the staff's recommendation to be quiet in the sleeping area made the stay more pleasant. Also, the kitchen and communal room made it easier to talk to other travelers and enjoy the night around a jenga game.

    The location was brilliant and although the hostel was very close to the station, it was very quiet at night. The onsen was much appreciated after a long day of walking. We loved the restaurant - the dinner was amazing and staff very helpful.

    If you visit Japan and dont come to Hakone you are missing out and the best place to stay is definetly Root Hakone. Superb hosts, great location, charming setting and a really great whiskey bar.

    Great location and lovely to have room to spread out. The air con was nice and cool in the humid summer heat. A quiet little neighbourhood. Excellent communication with the host, thank you. Just to note, if you have bags you may wish to get a taxi from the train station, as there is a steep uphill part of the walk there. We found the walk fine without bags and very picturesque as you walk across two bridges over the rivers.

    We had a fantastic stay at Hakone Guesthouse. The host was incredibly lovely and offered to drive us to Hakone Gora Park on our first day. The host also spoke very good English. The rooms were capsule-style and very clean. The other guests were very quiet and respectful. The location was fairly convenient - a 30 minute walk to Gora Station and close by buses that are serviced by the Hakone Free Pass.

    The double bed capsule was super spacious and really cheap at under 20£ a night. The hostel staff were very friendly and helpful in answering all my questions about sightseeing. Nice and quiet at night and free tea and coffee was a bonus!

    I love this little guest house. It was right very close to one of the best modern sushi restaurants I've been to. The host was amazingly helpful and very very friendly. It's quite small but it's very quaint and cute. The room is quite big though for what we needed. It is Japanese style so beds on the floor which were comfy and warm.

    The host was a very nice, smiley and kind person. She was very clear and punctual in the explanations about the stay, and she was also giving me many advices on what to visit in Hakone. Her hostel is a lovely, traditional guest house. I felt like in one of those Japanese movies that I was watching when I was little. It was also super clean and cozy. Kana also offers hot/cold free drinks, and a fridge to leave your stuff. The neighbours is quiet and peaceful. I totally recommend!
