Walkable from hakone yumoto station! Hotel breakfast was good. Dinner would be great if we are able to choose the type of food that was served, as some of us not able to take beef and raw food. Surrounding was quiet. A good place to go to!

The Hakone Pax Yoshino is classed as a 3-star hotel. However despite its ageing facilities and room furnishings, this property still delivered a 4-star ryokan-style hotel accommodation for an affordable price. We stayed in a riverview room with twin beds, low-bed configuration. Then, we transferred to a standard room for our second night. The spacious rooms were neatly designed with minimalist Japanese furnishings and furnitures and laid with soft tatami mats. The standard room was a bit more antiquated in design than the riverview room. Our well-appointed third-floor room for our first night was close to the lift and had a picturesque view of the river. The rustling and murmuring sounds of the river cascades could be heard from our room and was conducive for mindfulness and relaxation. Our room for the second night was on the fourth level which had a distinct smell of antiquity. The amenities were adequate and included traditional “yukata” robes for use in the onsen and dining. Free hots drinks and popsicles (icy poles) were available all day in the hotel lobby. The open-air hot spring and indoor hot bath were equipped with toiletries appropriate for men, with onsens exclusive for women also readily available next to the designated male baths. Our riverview accommodation came with a gut-filling buffet breakfast. Our standard room came with a half board including a gastronomic kaiseki dinner and full buffet breakfast. Overall, staying here is good value for money!

Cons: The hotel is very old and dated. Carpets need changing. Room smelled a bit musty. Pros: The room itself was very large and spacious which we loved. The open air hot tub was nice. My wife and I also enjoyed the private onsen. By far the best part of the hotel were the amazing dinner and breakfast buffet!

We were worried about what the in-room half open bath would be like, but it exceeded our expectations. Even though it rained when we arrived, it certainly gave a different vibe. We really enjoyed our stay and the staff we dealt with were very friendly! If we get a chance to go again, we definitely want to stay for 2 nights to try the different kaiseki dinner options and check out the other private onsen options.

We waited for 15 minutes. There’s nobody in the front desk. It had happened twice. When you leave your luggage. They just piled them next to the elevator where anybody can just grab it. We don’t feel secure with our belongings. Staff doesn’t seem to care. There’s also some molds in the shower curtain

I don’t understand why but booking through Expedia end us up in a less favourable room. Either low floor or rooms near the road. For this hotel we were given a room that is near the road at level 2. Noisy especially at night. Checking in was at 3pm and checking out was at 10am !!! Will not recommend to stay.

I can’t write enough great things about Pax Yoshino. This was my first time staying at a Ryokan and it did not dissapoint. The stay exceeded my expectations. The hotel is pristine and the rooms were immaculate. The inane on the top floor were absolutely beautiful. The staff was so very nice and spoke English. The Keiseki dinner was my absolute favorite. Authentic Japanese food cooked right at your table. My only disappointment was that I could not stay longer. 10/10.

Nice hotel which gives Japanese style rooms. The staff at check-in were very helpful and allowed us to leave our bags with them when we arrived in the morning while our room was made ready (at 3pm). Breakfast provided a good selection with mostly Japanese food. The hotel has a 10-15 minute walk to the local train station. Pleasant surroundings with a river (with lots of wildlife) running alongside the road up to the hotel.

Everything was great. Smoking room had slight cigarette smell but it is OK. Only thing is the seating at dinner is sometimes less than ideal if you don't get a window seat. You can ask and they will move you!

Not impressed
We choose to stay in a Japanese style room and the mattress was not super comfortable. The hallway had a terrible smell and stained carpets. The room had the smell of the mats which I didn’t really care for. That being said the breakfast and dinner was excellent.
