This is a beautiful Japanese inn. We loved having the whole experience including the use of the private onsen, the beautiful tatami mats, the delicious multi course meal, and wonderful staff. It's very close to gora station so it's very convenient. It's a wonderful value for a indescribable experience.
Amazing experience- the room was great, the staff was incredibly attentive and kind. The food was beyond delicious, wish I stayed more!!

Awesome full-course Japanese dinner and traditional breakfast. Private onsen included. Rooms with private bathroom and spacious. Awesome staffs!! We were there with small kids and will definitely get back next time in town.
Traditional Japanese hospitality in a lovely setting. The hotel was very simple to reach and the staff was super accommodating to make my stay comfortable and delightful. The meals are a real luxury and served with a full explanation and always a smile!
my 2nd stay here, everything is very good, kaiseiki meal (dinner & breakfast) is superb, feels like coming back to home. Owner is very accomodating and welcoming.
Great traditional Japanese experience. Tatami rooms, futons, yukatas, amazing meals and of course private onsen.
Staff was super friendly and the property is in easy walking distance to the Hakone Ropeway.
We had such an amazing stay at the Gorakan. We were blown away by the food and the service, especially the delicious multi-course dinner. Highly recommend!
If you're looking for a more traditional stay with hot spring and Japanese style breakfast and dinner, Gorankan would be your choice.
Staff are all very friendly and the location is like 3 mins walking distance to the cable car Station.
Overall a very pleasant stay. Just be prepared the check-in time is strictly 3pm. Before that you can't find anyone at the reception. We had to carry our bags through some steps crossing the tunnel twice as the door was closed and no one was there at the reception.
The property met our expectations, food and service was amazing, although the staff’s English is limited, they try to understand as possible. It is conveniently close to the Gora Station. Onsen was clean and private, We enjoyed our stay.
Such a unique and friendly hotel. The dinner and breakfast are amazing. Hotel staff is very helpful. Very close to the station. I recommend communal bath - its very good.
Fantastic and friendly service with amazing, meticulously crafted meals. Thank you!

I had a wonderful time here, the atmosphere was quiet and felt very traditional. The baths were wonderful, and I enjoyed many long soaks over my two day stay. The food was absolutely incredible, there was so much but I couldn't stop eating it. The variety of dishes and care in which they were presented was a truly memorable experience and I will definitely go back.
The location is quite close to Gora station and the cable car, and a short (but steep) walk up the hill to Hakone Park, which was absolutely stunning with fall colors.
The service was absolutely amazing. Everything from the room to the lobby to the baths was excellently curated and full of that traditional charm. Our hostess was always ready to provide us with anything we needed and the food was probably the best we’d had during our two week trip! I will definitely be recommending this to my friends, family and anyone else that wants to visit Hakone!
Our family (with 2 kids age 5 and 8) had a wonderful 2-night stay. The kaiseki dinner and breakfast is sensational. We loved being able to book the private onsen for a family spa. The rooms are spacious and children acommodated with their own yukatas and slightly adjusted meals. The open air museum is a short walk away and great coffee at coffee swamp around the corner.

A lovely stay at a family run ryokan very near Gora station. It is not luxurious accommodation by any means but the staff are very sweet and kind. The place is a little rustic but the food is amazing!! Actually they could cut down on a few dishes and it would still be too much to eat! The private onsen was also much appreciated as there is no shower in the room. All in all, I had a relaxing time in Gorakan.
