A Mirai Hakone・A

The host picked us up at the station, so the relaxed feel started right away. The rooms are tucked into lush forest, tastefully done and smelling lovely, almost like a forest spa. It’s a great mix of upscale comfort and nature, and a fun spot if that’s the combination you’re after. :)

Sugawara-san, our service manager, was so kind and helpful. She offered to take us to the train station and made sure our requests were taken care of. She even brought us ketchup when we asked. Thanks so much!

Quiet and private, and the service manager is fantastic. He has a quick, efficient way to reach him through a messaging app. There’s a bus stop nearby that goes into town, and the Pola museum is down the street.

Really liked the decor here. Lama, the groundskeeper and manager, was friendly and helpful, and they thoughtfully left us a loaf of bread, a carton of eggs, milk, and apple juice.
