Hotel Analysis
Based on 2 sites · 159 reviews
Ryokan Motoyu Kansuiro is a traditional ryokan in Hakone with over 100 years of history. Built in 1919, its wooden structure is registered as a cultural asset, and guests strongly feel the historical atmosphere and Japanese tradition.
Reviews across booking sites repeatedly praise the 'excellent onsen', 'refined food and service'. Staff kindly provide ryokan tours and deliver kaiseki to rooms, with many noting the comfort of private onsen use. Couples and families especially appreciate the 'atmosphere and relaxation'.
However, some mention inconvenient transportation. It's two bus stops from Hakone-Yumoto station with no pickup service, making it tough with luggage. A few express regrets over extra towel fees or food portions.
It suits couples or families seeking a traditional ryokan experience.
