Getting to the hotel was quite hard and options for eating outside of the hotel offering were nonexistent. The room was spacious and offered everything promised but it was located on an area of the hotel that didn't have elevators, the public spaces all had a really strong humid odor. It was an ok experience, but not sure it was worth the price

Almost scary.
This place seems on the cusp of closure. Almost as though it’s been forgotten. Crusty. Mold. Water soaked floors a wallpaper everywhere. The carpets in the entire hotel were stained and dirty. First room we were offered was so dirty I had to request a new one. Second room was on the 3rd floor (no elevator) and my dad is 73. Staff was kind but obviously stretched way too thin (front desk employees double as waiters/buffet attendants). It’s not close to anything so you’re at the mercy of the breakfast and dinner served on site. Personal onsen in room was DIRTY to the MAX, so was the comforter. Honestly would have left this hotel if I wasn’t so tired. But do consider that the entire area seems just as run down as this hotel. But the ropeway and pirate ship were nice.
The patio as you enter hotel. Exposed nails everywhere!
An example of how water logged everything was. Floor was dangerously waterlogged.
Entry to the public onsen. Eeesh.

Dirty spiders in the room in room Onsen not very hot and the recirculating pump to keep the water hot was not working steep dangerous stairs. No elevator to the third floor and had to carry heavy bags up t the third floor. For an international hotel many of the staff didn’t speak English or even attempt to. un advised extra charge for the use of the in room Onsen that we paid a higher room fee for. Only one microwave for everyone in the hotel to use and yes it’s on the first floor for guests staying on the third floor not convenient.

Never again. It was the worst hotel in Japan I’ve ever seen. Don’t even know where to start. Perhaps, that we were accommodated in the room with broken and leaking onsen. On reception we were told “once you take a bath, don’t let out water”. Well, thats interesting. We are curious and tried to do so and onsen was leaking badly. Obviously, because of bath full of water overnight and sewage system not working properly, the smell in the room was SO bad, we all felt sick immediately. To open windows, we needed to ask reception staff to help as they were opening from behind of the bath so you need to step ON the bath and open. Ridiculous 😅 Beside of the smell, the room is super worn. Two spots on the wall were just painted on with white paint. We felt like living in the abandoned room. Moreover, there were spiders. Not just one tiny spider but a bunch of huge creatures coming to visit us one by one and in pairs. My child could not properly sleep all night as was terrified. To be honest, me too. And well. The staff. Not helping, not professional. For all comments they could only say “sorry mam” and smile. Not making a tiny effort to improve the situation. Moreover, the property does not have an elevator. And our room was second floor. I’d expect someone to help with luggage but not in this place. Just watching with wonder how we were taking suitcase to the room. Hope this will give an idea of what this hotel is like. I wish I could read this kind of review before booking. It was m

Absolutely gorgeous property. Not too difficult or expensive to access via a bus from the Odawara shinkansen station. The rooms are huge, there are a million places to sit and relax, the hot tubs are amazing and fill pretty quickly, the public bath is spectacularly peaceful and gorgeous and is also pretty big. The dining options were plentiful too.

Great value for private in-room spa
I was very pleased with our room, and in-room hot tub. The room was clean and spacious, and most importantly in 0° weather - warm upon arrival. The front desk was very courteous. You may want to bring your own sodas and/or beverages as their vending machine in the lobby is limited.

Great hotel for the value. Very friendly staffs. The location would be a draw back if you don’t drive with your car. You can get to the hotel by bus which is highly recommended but the service is not very frequent. Note that taxi or other car share services are basically nonexistent.

I came here with my sister after a week and a half of traveling to different locations and we wanted to relax at this hot spring. The staff was really friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed the private hot spring in our room. This place is far from town and is surrounded by trees so don't expect any stores. It's a really good place to unwind and relax. Very quaint and tranquil.

Good for the price. Small public bath but no one else was in it so rather relaxing. Buffet breakfast was small and limited, but it did the job. Hard to get to, no restaurants open for dinner except 1. Last bus around 7-8pm. Lots of hills. Staff were nice.
