All the Asante Inn staff were very friendly and helpful. Having meals available in the dining room/common room was wonderful after big days of travel and exploring. Thank you very much for your hospitality.

Excellent staff and a great experience, lovely onsen

Had an amazing experience here. The food was amazing, the staff was nice, and the rooms were clean.

Amazing stay! The staff were absolutely lovely, friendly and helpful. The rooms were really big and spacious, and had lovely views of the beautiful garden outside. The onsen was such a treat and made us feel super relaxed after a long day out. We also loved sitting in the lounge area where the fire was burning and chatting to other guests. Shared bathrooms were extremely clean! Highly recommended and will definitely be back.

Great little hotel off the beaten path near Gora Station. Easy enough to get around the Hakone are while also having some seclusion, not to mention the private Onsen and nice lounge area!

We loved our stay at the Asante Inn. The staff was incredibly accommodating, and very helpful with local recommendations. We had a private room for 2 (picture included), as well as a single bed in the female dorm (for my sister-in-law). We all opted for the Japanese breakfast each day, which was prepared beautifully and was fantastic. Our room was on the lower level, right next to the mini workout area (a stationary bike, as well as some other machine), which had a massage chair. The massage chair was incredible, and much needed after a long day of hiking. We loved the private onsen with signups. They have a left (larger) and right (smaller) onsen which can be both be reserved in 40 minute increments using a signup on the main floor. Signups are for 16:00-22:30 (8 signups, 2 onsens, so 16 different reservations a day). The onsens can be used on a first come first served basis in the mornings as well. We also went to a local japanese restaurant near the bottom of the hill (not far from the bus stop) which was an incredible experience within a few minutes walking from the hotel.

We had a lovely stay, enjoyed the private onsen and breakfast was great. Room and toilet were clean and overall very pleasant to stay.

great food & hospitality Private onsen was amazing as well Will definitely return

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Manager spoke english. I told them i didnt eat pork and they made sure i didnt choose a food option with pork hidden in it. I LOVED that they had a private onsen since i have a tattoo and i wasnt sure if those are allowed in public onsens.

the staff are 5* service staff. they offered to send us back to gora station after our check out on the last day and were so nice and understanding towards us. inn was warm cozy and comfortable and the onsens were lovely too. only good praises about this inn!

Beautiful views, room quiet . The onsen was excellent after a day of visiting Hakone . A little far but worth it . Owner and staff very helpful and friendly

We had a wonderful experience. The house and the garden are very beautiful and had a very nice atmosphere. The onsen (the big one on the left) is very nice. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Nice Onsen and friendly staff, we also liked the common area as well as the garden. However, our room was located in the basement next to the Onsen, which led to some noise.

Staff was very nice and welcoming, fluent in english

Amazing. Great service and facilities, on-site private onsen. Clean and comfortable. Highly recommended.

Everything was as per photos and description. Perfect place!

Wonderful stay. Rooms lovely. Onsen was absolutely delightful, especially having a private time booked for the room. Staff were extremely friendly and one woman in particular helped us out with planning our day helped drive us around. The food was delicious. Absolutely first rate service

The stay was absolutely amazing! Very kind and warm owner and staff. The facility was super nice and clean with beautiful Japanese garden which the owner designed and maintains. We even had a view of Mt. Fuji. This hotel and its staff made our trip very memorable. We won’t stay anywhere else when we come back to Hakone!
