We loved the traditional ryokan style offered at Yusakaso. The staff really goes out of the way to make you feel comfortable and also to explain how to use the different facilities. Thankfully you could reserve the use of the private family onsen for 30 minutes. We used this time to experience the hot springs and took advantage of the shower facilities there since there is only a toilet and sink in your room. We wanted to experience the traditional Japanese Ryokan and this is really it. The food was very good and plentiful, and again quite traditional. We stayed here just for one night and enjoyed all the highlights of Hakone using the 2 Days free pass. This was one of our favorite areas to visit, and the experience at Yusakaso was definitely part of it. We were very pleased.

The food was amazing and our host Tomo and the staff really made us feel at home. With the help of a translation app, we were able to communicate without a problem. The private bath was great for our family to use. The property was on a hill so it would be a little too much to walk with luggages but otherwise totally walkable to the train station.

Great place to feel the traditional Japanese Onsen and hospitality. There is an onsen for women and you can shower in the locker room since you only have a toilet and sink in your room. The walk and stairs pass a beautiful river, but the steep stairs with luggage is not advised . Take a shuttle or cab if you want an easy walk. It’s 15 minutes uphill. The food is overwhelming, so don’t eat before arriving. Dinner and breakfast was way too much to eat, but everything was enjoyable and a great experience.

Very approachable for a more cultural, traditional experience. Was very easy for an American foreigner like myself to have a truly authentic experience. Staff is incredibly hospitable, helpful, patient, and capable. My first ryokan experience that I have Yusakaso to thank. Quality onsens, extraordinarily clean.

The stay at Yusakaso left nothing to be desired. The staff and meals were excellent. The room was large and quiet. The public baths were nice and clean. The outdoor mixed gender as well as the time in the private bath are perfect to share a bath with a partner.

This ryokan with onsen is in a beautiful location. The staff was very friendly and the dinner and breakfast were that of a traditional ryokan, which we very much enjoyed (fish, soup, pickles). We were a bit wary of sleeping on the traditional bedding, but it was surprisingly comfortable and we both had a great nights sleep after soaking in the gorgeous onsen! The larger one is located outdoors which was so lovely with the fog and steam coming off the water. There's an indoor/outdoor onsen as well, that you can book for one hour which we didn't use as the outdoor one is much more scenic.
The place itself needs a major update. The decor is lacking and it really needs to be revamped to include better lighting. There are stains on some of the wall coverings and the lighting in the room was so bad (overhead bright fluorescent lamp) and a small table lamp that was just for reading. We used one of the floor lamps from the hallway to give the room a bit more ambiance, which helped, but was still very dimly lit. It has potential for being super cute and for the money spent should definitely be overhauled.
You have to take a bus or taxi as it's too far to walk from the train station if you have luggage (maybe a 30 minute walk) which isn't a problem, but the trip back from the hotel was a bit more difficult because the bus was standing room only because everyone in the area was checking out at the same time.

A true, high quality Ryokan experience away from more crowded tourist areas. Excellent hospitality, lodging, and some of the best meals I’ve ever had!

The building is a beautiful building of traditional hot spring. We enjoyed the Onsen. The meals, dinner and breakfast, were not prepared. They said they were going to close the inn completely after the Golden Week but they opened because of us. The convenience stores, Family Mart was a good walking distance if you love to walk for a distance, not convenient.

Nice clean room. Private onsen to use 30 mins each day. Plus a outdoor mixed onsen in the garden setting. Good japanese style breakfast.
Nice little play area for the kids while adults can chill out

Family-friendly and child-friendly, which is not very common. Rooms were traditional and spacious, onsens were fabulous. The best part was the breakfast feast laid out by the lovely Japanese woman in full kimono each morning of our stay. Highly recommended!

Family friendly onsen is hard to come by. This was great !!
They have a shuttle to bring you back to the Hakone-Yumato station in the morning. They helped me wash my baby bottles. They provided a baby chair during my stay. They had private family onsen time slots available upon check in. Place is a little outdated. The outside garden onsen is co-ed, super lovely and they allow females to bring a towel into the outside onsen. Cash only facility.
